My girlfriend and I absolutely loved our lunch today. She had the pulled chicken platter with slaw. I had pulled pork with their awesome loaded potato salad. Both of us had the excellent baked beans too! The atmosphere is very friendly and quaint. The ladies were extremely nice and helpful. If you love barbecue for the food not the frills, this is the place in Kingsport to go. Highly recommend.

The BEST POTATO SALAD I'VE EVER HAD!! All of it was amazing! Had the brisket sandwich, hubby had the pulled pork sandwich. Well worth the extra 7 minutes off the highway to get great local BBQ. Should we pass through this area again, we will definitely be stopping for more!!

We are traveling thru and saw a yelp post about this place. And, wow! Am I glad we did. Ribs were incredible. Fell off the bone and were super tasty. Beans were so good that I could stay there and eat beans all night. Great service. Quality food at good prices.

Went on a Thursday, dead besides one other customer, staff was extremely friendly and accommodating, didn't have ribs available, but the pulled pork nachos with beans was delicious. 🤤 Would definitely visit with friends again when in the area.
