Fun location right off of snow mobile trails. Lots of sauces and sides to try.

There is no service beyond ordering at the register. They want you to order online and do take out... they do have some tables inside and out, but it's not a place where you feel welcome or would want to linger (they have big signs telling you to wait at a table, or outside for your order... basically stay out of the way). The ribs were good but the vibe is so nasty I won't go back, unless I do the take out that they want you to do. If you need sauce, they have choices, but they are big, sticky squeeze bottles.

The place is a MUST go. There are no sauces required for this BBQ but they have plenty of sauces to enhance the flavors. Do not pass this place up.

Best barbecue we’ve had in a LOOONG time! Actually, may be the best barbecue we’ve ever had. We love barbecue. And, we travel all over the United States for work so we’ve visited many barbecue restaurants. The brisket at BB was off the charts with flavor, tenderness, and portion size. My husband and I both ordered a 1/4# and it was easily more than a 1/4# of some of the best brisket you’ll ever eat. And, we snagged some really cute stickers before we left 😉! The special barbecue cheese curds were pretty yummy too!

Food is always fantastic, the woman taking orders at the front counter needs some customer service skills or just find another profession. She ruined the whole day, by being a snot. I have referred people to go here to eat, maybe a while before I go back. Don’t need the snotty attitude even if the food is good .

Best BBQ in town, hands down! Be there at open or you will regret it. Seating is available inside and out. Staff is very friendly and we can't wait to go back again! I can taste the brisket, 😋!

Absolutely, amazing, amazing barbecue! The brisket is delish, the pulled pork is so tender and flavorful, smoked turkey is moist and perfect. I haven't had the sausage but I imagine it's just as good. Then to boot, their fries are ridiculous and potato salad is solid too. If you're driving by, you'll smell it before you see it. Stop by!!

Nice BBQ restaurant that is very small with some outside seating. The food was good, but nothing special.

We came in when it was relatively busy and raining, and were so glad to be able to grab a table. The woman who took our order was super nice and polite. I was excited to try out the chicken pita and I was not disappointed! Wow, what a gem, the flavor was so rich, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. We had a group of 4, and the food was very quick and accurate. When we finished I also got a ‘to go’ order and once again the woman was super kind and patient with me as my brother was texting me his order. I really appreciate that! Very clean establishment, the employees were extremely quick to wipe up tables as people were coming and going. Thanks for a great experience, you guys all look like you work your tail off.
