    Rib plate with slaw and beans.
    Terry C.

    Converted a bbq & fixings non-fan! Short version: Delicious food! Shockingly good in a saturated bbq market. Fast service! Long version: I was born and raised in Bama yet I never fell n love with bbq, disliked slaw, and hated beans. Until my job catered Big Doons! I took a plate because I was hungry and wanted to be polite. But I didn't suffer! The food was so good it tasted like some more. So not even two weeks later I decided to spend some of my hard-earned on a second try. Free food always has an unfair advantage. Would it be as good if it cost me? I was prepared to be disappointed because, what is ever as good as the first time? Doon's! Big Doon's is! I ordered a rib plate with coleslaw and beans as the sides, a side of okra, and a cheesesteak egg roll. In less than 10 minutes I was back in my car. I ate half the egg roll before I made it out the lot. Yum! I never made it to the sauce. Okra: Is this hand battered!? It's not the usual breaded and bagged! That's for sure. And there's a light dusting of something savory on top. I ended up dropping them in the lobby and if I was at home, that 5 second rule would've been enacted. The ribs are tender and smoky. I wish I had asked for no sauce to really get a sense of what the baked meat was like. Next time. 'Cause there will be a next time!

    The owners warmly greeted me when I entered. Mrs got up to wait on me. Within minutes my order was ready to go. Unfortunately I wasn't up to par so I didn't inspect everything like usual. However I was impressed with my $11 with tax Rib Sandwich. They cared enough about customer satisfaction to purchase quality containers for their orders. It closed well enough to prevent sauce from leaking out plus maintained the temperature of my food since it was quite a while before I was home and ready to eat. My bones were sliced and completely dipped in a thick dark homemade unique sauce. I tasted better than any other restaurant's bbq sauce I've tried. Both slices of my bread soaked up the sauce and was infused with the scent of the warm spices in the sauce. I wished I had ordered extra sauce and bread since I wrapped bread around two of the bones. That was a new way of eating for me. Was it the sauce? The meat was extremely tender and delicious. I prefer Baby Back ribs but my order was so well prepared I wasn't disappointed I was eating a large bone with the end piece that I normally try to avoid. I think it was because of that delicious sauce and that it had been slowly rendered so there wasn't any fat or tough gristle. I have absolutely no complaints about my rib sandwich. I can't wait to go back when I feel well to try their sides and other items. I've heard their pork sandwich's are wonderful too. I wish them well and congratulations. Hueytown is hard on their businesses. So far there are nothing but rave reviews on social media so that speaks volumes!

When I got here I groaned a little because there was a long line and I was hungry. However, the line moved quickly and I got my meal in record time. Ordering was easy and the people up front were super nice. Did I mention the food came out quick? It was just as delicious as it was quick. I went with an order of the Asian zing wings. They were sauced up the way I like it and the chicken itself was crispy and juicy. The sauce itself was unique and bold. I had a spoon to eat the leftover sauce on my to-go container. A coworker of mine had the Philly. While I didn't try it I can verify that based off their reaction that it was incredible. There's not many tables to eat here, as this seems more of the place to grab a lunch to go. I see more visits in my future!

I have had the low-carb smoked Gouda burger and several pizzas here and both were really good. My favorites are the White Thunder and Cloud 9 pizzas. Over the years, the wait time has improved. Their pizzas are now available in local Piggly Wiggly stores. They are even available in some local systems as a healthier option for student lunches. I also read an article about the owner and how, after being diagnosed with diabetes, decided to take back his health by changing his diet and he wanted to share his recipes with the community. Bell Peppers is a one of a kind concept, and I hope they are around for a very long time.

    Okay so after so many people telling me to go try this place I finally had the chance to do so…read moretoday. We traveled over to Hueytown today and ate at a restaurant known as Bell Peppers. Even got to meet the owner and everything. He was very nice and even made our orders for us. So here's a bit about this place. It's low carb friendly, keto friendly, and its a diabetics paradise. The owner if I'm not mistaken is a diabetic himself (Tony made a friend). Everything there was made fresh and was super delicious. The pizza was my favorite and if no one told you, you would never know that the pepperoni, sausage, and bacon on the pizza was all Turkey meat. I was very happy to leave this black owned restaurant not feeling like I shouldn't have eaten this. The inside was very clean and the food is top quality. You get what you pay for. Go check out Bell Peppers and support these local businesses right now!
