Brisket and pork are delicious. Staff is very friendly, and accommodating.
Where it falls short in my opinion are the sides, specifically the mac n cheese and the coleslaw.
There is virtually no cheese in the mac, and the coleslaw has no flavor whatsoever.
Recipes for both have definitely changed since ownership change. The beans are excellent though.
Just my honest opinion.

Great local BBQ joint with great brisket and pulled chicken. Haven't tried the pulled pork yet but I'm sure it's good as well based on the other meat. We coming and friendly service. Definitely try it out.

Great little bbq place. Tried their sputzilla today with chicken and side of green beans. It’s a monster and I am still full. This was top tier bbq and it’s very popular for a reason!
