★★★★★ 5.0 Trevor Mcnellis · Feb 2026

Excellent BBQ and fried okra. Some of the best brisket I have ever had and I’m native Texan. It was tender and full of flavor. The fried okra was fresh, perfectly seasoned and worth the trip from Greenville alone. We will definitely be back!

★★★★★ 5.0 Papaw of four · Jan 2026

"funky little shack" awesome selection of brew on tap Q is very tender and sauce is one of the best in the 903 I'd prefer more of a smoke ring on the brisket but man it was cooked to perfection (sorry 'bout the four stars but I like it smoky) the okra is fang awesome we got on the outside of a great meal. great spot for a lunch in Town, we'll be back

What a JEWEL of a BBQ joint in a sleepy small town, such a treat. Prices are REASONABLE and sides are SUBSTANTIAL Right-sized servings, the made to order fried sides... SO YES, you'll wait for some things. Not all meat selections available every day, which SHOULD be expected for location, location, location! The on-tap rootbear is SMOOTH and tasty (sassafrassey!)...ALTHOUGH, it should be served like an on-tap craft beer in a frosty glass and NOT in styrofoam crap-cup, imho.

I had the loaded fries. It was wonderful. Fresh. Large portion. The BBQ sauce was delicious. I will definitely be returning when I am back in the area.

★★★★★ 5.0 Susan Courson · Jan 2026

Excellent bbq, atmosphere was good. Good selection of tap beer and cold drinks. We enjoyed the gut bom(loaded potato), Q-fries and the 2 meat plate, with sausage and brisket-okra was fried to perfection. Brisket was tender, flavor was great. Busy, but service was quick.
