Wow, what a great stop to make. Yes, it's a guy with a smoker hooked to a pickup in a parking lot on the side of the road, but that just gives more credit to Ithaca's independent food popups.I got the Prime Rib dinner ($25) and ribs ($15). Both were fantastic. The prime rib was a huge cut and THICK. Perfect char and smoke ring. So tender you could eat it with just your fingers. Even the bits of fat were really good (winter is coming and I need the insulation). Ribs were amazing - really nice sauce slathered on them and the bones pulled out perfectly clean. The ribs were almost a pulled port once I slid the bones out. Also, a very fair portion for the price and top quality.Owner said he does Prime Rib on Friday and Saturdays and keeps the menu changing on other days. Overall a fantastic add to a city that has no longer has BBQ. "Usually" meat is ready by 11:30. Closes when out and open at least through the end of the year (I know it's cold, but I hope he stays a while)Cash only, park in a space and walk up. Very friendly owner and great smoked BBQ.
