About Barbecue Center

The Barbecue Center is a popular restaurant known for its generous portions and delicious food. The menu offers a range of options, including a chicken/pork combo tray with potato salad and white cole slaw. The tomato and vinegar cole slaw is a standout surprise. The restaurant is famous for its banana splits, but its traditional shoulder pork is also a highlight. It has a classic diner atmosphere with plenty of seating. Customers praise the great portions, service, and value, as well as the delicious vinegar sauce in the pork, hushpuppies, and sweet tea. Many visitors drive more than 50 miles round trip just to eat here, often enjoying a milk shake, especially black cherry. The place is a classic barbecue drive-in; staff come out to take orders, and the food is always good. The barbecue plate with fries, spicy red cole slaw, chopped barbecue, hush puppies, and a large chair wine makes for a delightful meal. The chopped barbecue is smoked and topped with tasty sauce, while the hush puppies are homemade and slightly sweet. The spicy and crunchy coleslaw is considered the highlight of the meal. Overall, the experience is really good, with friendly service from a helpful young staff member. The restaurant is a favorite for many who like to eat in their cars or talk on the phone while enjoying their meal.
