Just great bbq.
First time back in 8 years. Inside is all new. Painted walls hide all the signures that were on the walls since first time we tried the food after we had seen it on Man vs Food.
We had mac and cheese, pulled pork, greens and burnt ends.
Everything was well seasoned and cooked very well. I won't wait so long to be back now I know you are open again.

Tanya and Eren took great care of me when I showed up last minute before closing on Sunday needing good food for 25 hungry premed and med students and residents! Excellent food and service!!!
Food is a long way away from backyard bbq, food was not hot, lemonade had pineapple in it not lemon what is that? My collard greens was cold, my okra cold, paid $10 for a side of shrimp,not even 10 shrimp in the bag, WTH serves shrimp in a bag? And if you gonna run a establishment make sure everybody is on point,lady in the back had to help the girl in the front cuz she seemed lost, got one man cooking doing his job and the other cook talking bout non sense not helping do nothing, first and last time eating there, straight garbage. Ate a bit threw the rest away. The tables were loose, the area where sides are kept was dirty looking didn't even have the napkins,straws,fork where you could reach them, lemonade didn't taste like lemonade bs.

Absolutely horrible. This place used to be good a few years ago under the old owners. Now its absolutely horrible. I got 2 fried pork chops and they were raw. Got fries and they were raw. I wasted $20. Ill never go back.
Best bbq food in Durham. Mac and cheese and the potato salad are legendary. Really great fries and yams too. Meat options are all solid. Some really decent vegetarian sides as well (yams, rice, greens, fries, okra). More of a takeout sorta vibe.
Smothered pork chops were amazing. Staff was kind and friendly! Loved eating there!

Friendly service, reasonable prices and good-sized portions. Ordered the large unsweet tea ($4) and the brisket basket ($13), which comes with lean sliced brisket covered by an onion gravy (?) and a side of fries. Generous portion but disappointing as the brisket was a bit tough.

This is a good place. The staff is cheerful, courteous and efficient. The barbeque was very good and the sides were even better, especially the collards.
High marks all around!

P.S.
And they have vegetarian dishes and, for those with alpha -gal allergy, there is fish.
