Shaws Smoke Shack Barbecue

You guys. Wow. So good! Call ahead on Friday or go to the "shack" right at 3:30 when it opens - you won't be disappointed! Meat and sides sold separately. Half pound or whole for meats, small or large for sides (baked beans or slaw.. both delicious). I had planned to take some pictures of the brisket and pork but devoured the brisket so quickly there was no time. Pulled pork is half eaten,, sorry. The ribs though.. WOW!! So good.. Oh, also, homemade BBQ sauces. Right!? Do yourself a favor.

I was eighteen at this place in which they were open more than one day. The food is phenomenal, no matter what you get. At the woman, I personally love the chilly dogs and beans. The pulled pork, brisket, and ribs all but melt in your mouth. They were open one day a week, Friday, at three thirty. If you haven't pleased your order over the phone, you better show up at three thirty otherwise you're gonna miss out. Because they're usually sold out by four thirty and never past five. They have a phone number. You can call or text you're ordered by wednesday of that week, and it will be ready.

Chili dogs were very good. I noticed right away the skinny dogs - love those. The chili was a little spicy for me but I still enjoyed it. My son had one with everything on it and he loved it. Want to try the brisket next.

Tough choice deciding whether to tell everyone how great the place is or tell everyone it's horrible and hope they stay away so I can enjoy it. Great place! Mike and staff very friendly. The brisket was as tender and tasty as I have ever had. Wife loved the ribs and the brisket and I enjoyed the pulled pork sandwich as well. Love to eat at places that are only open a limited number of hours; lets me know someone is in it for love of the endeavor and not for the money. Definitely worth a try to see if you agree! Nate

****IMPORTANT NEWS**** They suffered an electrical problem so they will not reopen until after the New Year... Can't wait because this place is killer!!!! Little tiny hidden place by the railroad tracks. Very good food. Only takes cash and ya have to order stuff in advace except for the chili dogs that are amazing surprisingly... ok price too... try it... may be wrong...
