“ While I didn't eat in house, the food was ready on arrival, promptly given with zero hassle, and their online menu is solid. The ribs were possibly the best ribs I ever had - so tender you could eat them with a plastic fork and no knife. When I was in, I instantly adored the atmosphere. The dark hardwood looks awesome, and all the pig statuettes give it a cute touch. Go here if BBQ is what you crave! ”
“ Editing again cant say enough good things about this place, they do daily specials prices are very reasonable. Only food item thats not for me is the smoked mac n cheese and it's probably because ive had so many different kinds im picky but i cant really taste the cheese in it. We love the pulled pork the smoked half chicken and the grilled ham & cheese sandwich. We love this place they always check on you. Staff is so friendly and checks in on you after you have your food. They also clean everything up when you're done. Great smoked food and portion sizes. Everything is very clean and the restaurant you can tell is taken care of and you get a welcoming feeling when eating here. 2 times here when we travel for a day trip and we'll continue to be back ”

“ While this dining area is usually sparse this is every locals favorite take out on our lunch hour! They make a mean pulled pork Mac n cheese and their meats are just juicy mouth watering gems. ”
“ Absolutely delicious BBQ food with both spicy and mild variants. They have a great system with fast casual where you order the food and pay at the counter, sit down, and they bring it out to you. Definitely a great family friendly restaurant. ”
“ It was my first time here, and it was amazing. I ordered a half rack, with cole slaw and beans. It was great for lunch today and will be tomorrow, too. Portions are so generous! ”
“ The food was absolutely delicious. I would recommend both the Texas Tray and the Smoked Turkey sandwich on a pretzel roll. At first glance I thought I was getting a lettuce sandwich with little Turkey, but there ended up being just enough Turkey on there to balance it out perfectly. The smoked Mac and cheese was also very good. The restaurant was clean and I loved the music and environment. Note: The Texas Tray is definitely enough food for two people. Highly recommend! ”
