Great food! It kind of reminded me of an upgraded Sonny's BBQ. We came here for lunch with a group…read moreof friends after one of my sons played in the nationals here in town. We were hot and exhausted from being in the sun all day. As soon as we walked in, we were able to walk up to the counter and place our orders and they came out pretty fast. While eating, a gentleman came around and asked if we were enjoying everything, in which we told him we did. He started talking to us about this being his second job as he works for a college locally. Very nice gentleman, whose customer service skills were top notch. I ordered the half yard chicken, and they accommodated me by allowing me to get all white meat. The breast was so tender and falling apart. It was not dry at all, and I could not believe how they perfected the texture of it without drying it out. Everyone in our party enjoyed their food and would most definitely come back when we're back in town.

I almost asked them to put the coleslaw on the side, but I entrusted chef JP to leave it on and was glad I did! Collard greens flavorful as well, and not overpowering as they sometimes can be. My husband ordered the 1/2 bbq chicken which was also delicious: tender, moist, fall off the bone with a perfect bbq sauce( not too sweet, no vinegar). Green beans were yummy, and he also had a side of coleslaw and a roll. Would have liked to try the Mac n cheese and baked beans, but will leave that to next time. Prices were reasonable as well. Owners JP and his wife Sherein were delightful and the kind of people you want to succeed.

We have the two meats combo and the smoke chicken wings. The two meats combo we have is the brisket and the sausage. The brisket is always my favorite. They are juicy and tender.

Was in the mood for barbecue and this place was highly rated in the area so I went to check it out…read more The smoke was pouring out the back enclosed cooking area so I was already anticipating something good. When I entered the restaurant I noticed a few tables to eat at and an order counter. The place looked bright and clean. A gentleman greeted me as I entered saying welcome...that was nice. As I looked at the menu I couldn't find brisket anywhere and then there it was - a sign saying they no longer cooked brisket. I was bummed to say the least but decided to order a combo plate with ribs and chicken anyway. The plate meal comes with two sides and a roll and a choice of barbecue sauce. When I ate it - the ribs were excellent and very tender and I enjoyed the smoked chicken too - all in all a great meal for the price, just wish they still had brisket.

When I entered I was immediately greeted and told I could sit anywhere I'd like. I sat at a booth and the waitress brought a menu and a wooden pig with all the available sides. Ordered the smoked turkey size large with collard greens and baby potatoes. The turkey was amazing - I could have eaten it without sauces but I tried both of their homemade barbecue sauces and they're both good...one tangy and the other one a little spicy. Waitress checked in a couple times, I cleaned the plate and was out the door. Great barbecue - can't wait to try some more.

Just a short drive from his home, it's apparently one of his go to spots. It's a small space, with limited seating, and when we arrived, I got a good laugh at the (2) goats in the a pen in the parking lot bundled up for the cold weather. There was a bit of a wait inside, but as tabled cleared, they re-sat new parties quickly. The menu had a good variety of options, their sides were listed on a seperate "menu", made with removable velcro items, so when they run out, they can remove it form the list. I went with the combo plate, getting baby back ribs with pull pork, and potato salad and mac and cheese as my sides. The food came out quickly, and the the portion sizes were pretty good. In addition to my food, it also came with a few huge corn fritters, which were tasty and super moist. The ribs and pulls pork were very tasty the mac and cheese was ok, but no better than what you'd get from the blue box, but the potato salad was a bit more authentic. Service was friendly, good portions and fair pricing. I'd visit again !
