When entering Carrol Lou's Smokehouse, I was taken away to a southern state of mind by the atmosphere and character this old house contained. The menu is top-notch as are food portions. Even better is the overwhelming pitmaster smell and taste of the food. Plenty of rubs and sauce choices to please everyone!
Ordered Burnt Ends and 1/2 slab of Ribs. The Burnt Ends where tender, they were quite dry. The Ribs were very good, not overcooked which allowed for bite through. Nice smoked flavor. They were quite hot (temperature wise), had to wait to eat them, which was difficult because they tasted so good.
Gets pretty busy around the noon lunch rush, with good reason, but you can call ahead and carry out if you want, too.
