The food was really good I’ll rate it in order and explain why 1 Winner: Brisket - it was juicy and tender. You can see the smoke ring which was very satisfying. It pulled apart so smoothly. 10/10 on this alone 2. Pulled pork- it was delicious so much flavor and it was satisfying how it melt in my mouth! 3. Smoked pork sausage- it was good, good sausage that’s pretty much it lol 4. Pork ribs (dry rub) - mmmmm little to no flavor Debbie the owner was so welcoming and gave us a quick history of the restaurant! I felt so honored and she was just so sweet! Overall this was such an amazing place to eat I’m sure I’ll visit again

Can honestly say this is some of the best BBQ we’ve had being up north! Not only was the woman who took our order beyond personable and such a sweetheart (sorry I didn’t get her name! She was such a joy!) the food was amazing! Our daughter LOVED their mac and cheese and so did we, we got a whole pint!! We got pulled pork, brisket, hush puppies, coleslaw (AMAZING), burnt ends, corn bread, mac and cheese. It was so so so good I will recommend this place constantly and definitely be back!!!!

I had been meaning to go here since I found out that a BBQ restaurant. So today I choose to make that happen and I was not disappointed. The service was great served with a smile and great conversation. The food was delicious and as you are able to tell that brisket sandwich was well eaten. The photos shows you the ambience offered. I really enjoyed my experience here. Oh yeah, I forgot mention that it’s BYOB, so don’t forget to bring your bottle. I had an Arnold Palmer made of homemade lemonade and iced tea. Delicious 😋

Ah we fell in love with this place! Absolutely delicious! The hushpuppies are amazing and hubs had the word to ur smother which was phenomenal and portion wise, he even took half home. I had Burnt ends and brisket with Mac and corn bread, omgosh I felt like I was in Texas again (we lived there for a time some yrs ago lol) best compliment bc I haven't had food that good since. Sadly I didn't take food pics. It was so darn good looking and smelling we dug in b4 I thought abt it. Definitely be back for more!

My family and I had an incredible experience at this restaurant. We were greeted by a warm and friendly woman named Deb, who turned out to be the owner. Her passion and dedication to her customers were evident in every interaction. Deb took our orders, served us delicious food, and even held my baby so I could finish eating. The cookies, homemade drinks, and overall ambiance were all fantastic. My husband and I couldn’t resist and continued to eat, ordering more food and even taking some back for our other children. The restaurant was spotlessly clean, but the food was truly to die for.
