For the last 37 minutes they have just shut down if though they have nothing in there to sell people are standing outside some people want something Would you shut your whole system down and you have people standing outside somewhat should come out and say we don't have rip tips Ready but we have Hot links..... Poor management I have been standing outside all of this time waiting you couldn't least come out and say something to your customer Poor management... And you hold a James beard award For a long journey in your community and you treat your community like this

The worst experience ever and I won't be back. They way the guy behind the window was rude. The wait was entirely too long for mediocre barbecue. GOT the food home and barely any sauce for a large tip. The little sauce I had was at the bottom of the bottom and was watered down. Some of the orders the sauce was leaked in the bottom the bag. Just dry chewy meat.

Meat was delicious, well cooked and smoked. For me the sauce is too sweet. Good portions

Always a line. Parking is hard. Not really a sit down place. Chicken is good but their tips are great. Get them cut up. Yes, they charge more but it’s worth it.

First I must start off with, the treatment of people in your own community with a level of disrespect speaks volumes. To stand in line for an hour and this happens…..Service terrible. The lady at the register, is the WORSE for her age. She is miserable. She was on the phone the whole time discussing her family business. Had very nasty attitude with customers that had been waiting forever. Not only that they took a 15 minute break while the line was getting longer. Food was not worth the time or money. Service is the hands down the WORSE I have ever experienced. DO BETTER!
