Was craving some bbq & I have only heard rave reviews about this place. I’ve also gotten their beer cheese at Liquor Barn, and it was delicious, so I decided to try this place out finally. When I arrived, my food was ready, and the cashier was very friendly. I loved the inside decorated with everyone’s signatures, overall a cool environment. I got the pulled pork sandwich with the beer cheese grits & Mac n cheese. The pork was very dry. The sauce helped, but not quite enough. The Mac n cheese was just average. I did enjoy the beer cheese grits, however. They were the highlight of my meal. I spent $12 on a sandwich & two sides, which I think was extremely reasonable. Overall, I had a decent experience, and will be back to eat in person.
Popped in for lunch and this was DELICIOUS. I will most definitely return!

Delicious, friendly, amazing! Great people, great food all at a great price. This little diner style restaurant puts out some huge flavor and awesome dishes.Thanks!
Very good brisket with an excellent variety of sauces. Corn pudding, corn muffin and other sides all good. Baked beans have the scraps of brisket included (the best way to do beans) The place is a shack. An excellent bbq shack but still a shack.

If you love BBQ, then this is the place for you. This old school road side restaurant will shock you. It is located in Georgetown, Kentucky, or I guess just outside, in a Motel parking lot. As you enter, you get the feeling of time warp... every inch of the place is graffitied with the signatures of all visitors and customers. Pictured is on the bone ribs, not overcooked, very juicy, great flavor paired with fried green tomatoes and corn pudding. Other pictures had greens and pulled pork and brisket and chili with corn pudding. The brisket is delicious, probably just as good as Big Bob Gibson BBQ in Alabama. Not dry at all. The corn pudding was good, not sweet, but still good. The chili is not your standard chili. It is thick and has brisket in it but delicious. The fried green tomatoes were spot on and a must try. On the tables are many different kinds of bbq sauce, anything from tart, sweet, tangy, to hot. The place is always busy, this is a must try and experience if you are near-by.
A+ My favorite Kentucky place for BBQ. My only complaint is there's very little space left to leave my ex-girlfriend's phone number on the walls! ?JK... this place is the epitome of awesome southern BBQ and I go back anytime I'm near Lexington! Thank you so much, love this place!

Salt Lick Reviewer
First time visiting. Cashier was friendly. Between my husband and I, we got: pulled pork, pulled chicken, smoked bratwurst, baked beans, cole slaw, mac and cheese, and corn muffins. The pork was good, not too salty, but a bit on the dry side. My husband didn't like his pulled chicken and I didn't try it. The smoked bratwurst was sooo good, though; we were disappointed they didn't have the Jalapeño cheese bratwurst, but that just means another trip in the future! Baked beans were really good, my husband enjoyed his cole slaw, the Mac and cheese was okay, and the corn muffins were good. The atmosphere was laid back and had a "down home" comfy feel to it, it was nice. I loved the idea of people signing their names all over the walls and ceilings - we didn't know about this when we took our trip, so be sure to bring your own marker to leave your name! The husband and I will be back!
Delicious food great environment love this place will definitely come back

Bbq dive with good smoked meats and friendly service. Bonus points for having a nice beer selection. Eat in available and it wasn’t slammed when we went
Went there for the catfish po boy. It was great. Quaint little place with good food.

We stopped in Saturday for the first time, after seeing how busy it looked we thought for sure it would take at least an hour to get our food, not the case at all, we had our food within 15 minutes and it was great!! Great service! Great food!

I was in town visiting family and was sent here to pick up bbq. I got told they would sell pulled pork but not brisket by the pound to me because I didn't order 24hrs in advance. (Not a lot of bbq, 2 lbs of pulled pork, 2 pounds brisket) Had to make a call to regroup and figure out what I needed to order. I came back in and waited in line, again, then was told by the girl behind the counter I couldn't have 3 lbs of pulled pork. After asking someone in the kitchen, they conceided to sell me pulled pork! What a privilege. I then watched the girl go in the back to talk to someone. Watched all the people who ordered before and after me get their food. Definitely a poor impression from an out of towners perspective. It's tough to enjoy bbq, even if it's good, when you get a bunch of attitude as a side.
Definitely a local gem. I don't think you can go wrong here but don't miss the pork egg rolls!
