Upon entering the establishment, the tantalizing aroma from the smoker immediately aroused my senses, hinting at a promising culinary experience reminiscent of the esteemed "Mission BBQ" chain. However, my enthusiasm was somewhat dampened upon perusing the à la carte menu, where the absence of combo options and the unexpectedly steep prices left me slightly disappointed.Nevertheless, the service provided by the affable woman behind the counter was commendable, as she graciously guided us through their offerings with informative flair. As for the ambiance, while embodying the quintessential charm of a barbecue joint, it was marred by a lack of tidiness, with several tables in need of attention and the area designated for plate and tray returns in disarray.When it came to the fare itself, the culinary journey presented a mixed bag of delights and shortcomings. The pulled chicken, albeit flavorful, erred on the side of dryness, while the brisket, though rich in flavor, suffered from an excess of fat. Notably, the wings, infused with a pickle brine before undergoing the smoking and frying process, offered a unique twist, albeit with a discernible pickle undertone. Regrettably, the green beans proved to be overcooked and excessively mushy.Yet, amidst these culinary highs and lows, certain dishes emerged as true stars of the evening. The fries, boasting a delightful crispness, were nothing short of delectable, while the fried okra showcased a sublime combination of texture and flavor. And let us not forget the succulent pulled pork, a veritable highlight of the meal.In conclusion, while my dining experience warranted a modest three stars, reflective of the commendable execution of some dishes juxtaposed with the shortcomings of others, my verdict remains somewhat ambivalent. The allure of the exceptional offerings is tempered by the hefty price tag, leaving me uncertain about a return visit. Only time will reveal whether the siren call of their culinary creations proves irresistible despite the financial considerations.

Again I’m so disappointed because when they do by chance of getting it right, it’s good. Recommended CB to my church members and we ordered, came back to my home and CB provided us with burnt ribs and a missing order of ribs. I live to far to return but I’ll make my own from this point. Time & Money!! I love consistency!

The food is absolutely nasty. Not for me at all. Its waaaay to salty. And the greens taste like they have not been cleaned the Mac and cheese just nasty... the wings. Is a flat out no...Nope and No... the lemonade and tea mix was the only thing I didn't throw away. Just nasty!... $17 wasted. Never again.

I had high expectations for the BBQ place that everyone was raving about. Sadly, my experience left much to be desired. The food fell short in many ways - the brisket was cut wrong which rendered it tough and lacked the mouthwatering tenderness I was hoping for. The pulled pork and chicken were surprisingly flavorless, lacking that smoky and savory goodness that makes BBQ so irresistible. Even the sausage, with its tough casing, failed to deliver on the promise of juicy and flavorful bites.The sides were equally disappointing. The blandness of the mac and cheese was a stark contrast to the vibrant and bold flavors I was expecting. It was smooth, creamy, and cheesy, just lacked flavor. And don't even get me started on the lackluster collard greens. They were dry, flavorless, full of stems and just an overall disappointment. The corn pudding was dry and lacking in flavor, a far cry from the creamy and indulgent dish I had been dreaming of.The only saving grace was the sweet tea. It was the one bright spot in an otherwise lackluster meal.All in all, I wouldn't recommend going back to this BBQ place. There are certainly better options out there that can satisfy your craving for delicious and mouthwatering BBQ.

Food is trash and taste so bad I dident even eat all my fries and pork and turkey was cold right out of smoker also the bbq sauce is disscusting and the tea was pretty bad too. Service is one of those go up and order and sit and get your food so not much about that. But the atmosphere is disgusting tables dirty bathrooms where a disaster and the area you get your forks and spoons is greasey .

Normally the food is juicy. I order 2-3 times week. Just one time only once was it not up to par. But will try them again.

Just stopped by for a quick lunch and ended up having the best service at a restaurant I’ve ever had. The entire staff was amazing. Audrey Hinson in particular was so loving towards our kids. I’ve never been to a restaurant that cared so much about our experience. I will 100% eat here again especially if Audrey is working. We will now be calling in to make sure she is there before we come in. 5 stars

Just no. It was good maybe the first year this location opened but it's gone down hill. The last 3 times we have ordered from here (crazy, I know) it hasn't been good. From super over salted sides, forgetting things in our order, to over cooked chicken to the point of being inedible it's just not worth the money.
