BBQ is alright. All sides were served cold (not sure if it should have been that way i.e. baked beans Mac & cheese). Turkey was cold too. The ribs were great as was the smoked sausage.
A great place to stop off for some fantastic BBQ! I visited twice while in the area. Fries and slaw are good, ordered a lean brisket sandwich with mac and cheese. The sausage is out of this world!!
