Some of the best brisket I've ever had!

While visiting my cousin near Indianapolis, I drove by this restaurant a few times and have been wanting to stop and try it as I love good BBQ - so tonight, I did. I am happy to share that they did not disappoint, I highly recommend you stop if in the area. Family owned by two brothers, they deliver what good BBQ is all about. I had very flavorful, fall-apart brisket, the green beans were fantastic, and the loaded mashed potatoes were full of great flavor. The Brisket was great alone, but also complimented with the available sauces. I’m torn between the “Side Street Sweet” and the “Bourbon Burnout”. Maybe a combo of the two would be perfect. I would fail on this review if I didn’t mention the great and over-the-top service from Amanda - Thank you for completing a rewarding experience. I look forward to coming back again.

After spending $30 on a meal and tipping 20%, I asked for a glass of water. It was the ONLY request besides ordering food. The bartender rolled her eyes, took another bite of her food, then reluctantly got it for me. When I said “thank you” she ignored me and walked away without saying a word, as if it was the most unreasonable ask she’d ever experienced. Going forward I’ll gladly support another local business/staff that actually appreciates it.

Amazing!!! Staff was attentive and pleasant!! When we sat down we were immediately greeted with warm jalapeño biscuits with apple butter.
Started with the delicious pulled pork nachos!!! You could taste the smoke on the meat and it was delicious. Only suggestion is add tomatoes.
Next the 2 meat with 2 sides. The brisket was phenomenal, the seasoned fries were on point especially dipped in ranch, the Mac & cheese was piping hot and all the food was amazing!!!
Full bar, plenty of seating definitely worth the drive!!

Stopped by on my way back from Indy because there's no other decent BBQ options near me. This was good, soft bun, good sauce and chicken. My only complaint would be the bones I found in the pulled chicken sandwich, one pictured. Didn't bother me enough to not finish it, so I still approve, but may order something else if I stop by in the future.

Walked in and asked for a high top in bar and the gals attitude tanked
She left menus and walked away
Server came and took drink order
When we asked for a few minutes before we order she walked back to bar and slammed menu onto bar
She obviously wasn’t happy
Our food was good
Attitude is everything and theirs wasn’t acceptable
I only gave her a 25% tip and then when out Lyft driver arrived and we were departing she wished us a nice evening
Would never recommend or return
Their owner needs to give them an attitude adjustment!!

Stopped on my way up North and wasn't disappointed. Had a special on root beer floats, so I had to have one.

Tried the pick 3 (pork, turkey, brisket) with fries and the premium corn pudding and gave it all I could but left behind a good bit.

Do yourself a favor and get the corn pudding. It was my favorite bite. The meats were smoked well, still moist, and seasoned well.

The sauce choices: Side street Sweet, very sweet, but a great flavor with depth beyond sweet.
Motorhead mustard... my least favorite of the three, still good, but I prefer a more mustard forward sauce, this one felt like the mustard was an ingredient rather than the focus.
Bourbon Burnout... the winner for me and my taste of choice. Strong bourbon front with a spice that builds as you eat it.

Come give it a try if youre traveling 65.
