Your hard-earned dollars go a long way here..... prices are quite reasonable, and the portions are not skimpy!!! We had the pulled pork, sliced brisket, fries, mac-n-cheese, and turnip greens. One of the highlites for us was the " sauce wall". Love trying out all different types of bbq sauce, and my favorite here was the apple-chipotle. They also have an XXX sauce.... Try it if you dare!!!! For the serious heat lovers only!!!! You can tell it's a local favorite, but us outta-towners felt right at home!!!

We had the sliced brisket and pulled pork sandwiches with cole slaw, mac & cheese, and mashed potatoes. Everything was delicious--we love our BBQ and this spot is legit!!

The people who run it are so friendly, the food was delicious, and it was full of charm inside. We ate outside in the back overlooking the river and woods. It was really nice to sit back there. Our food was really tasty - especially the brisket and the mac and cheese. The pork shoulder and the chicken were all really memorable as well. We all liked the sweet sauce, but the spicy sauce was good too. Overall, just a perfect place to stop on your way through Bowling Green. Can't wait to eat here again

I'm sorry but we stopped in Cave City for the night and this BBQ joint was right across the street…read morefrom our hotel. We walked over and got seated right away. It smelled great and the food we seen delivered to other tables also looked great. We got a sample platter with ribs and brisket. The ribs were over cooked and chewy and the brisket was a lot of fat. The sides were just ok. Maybe it was just an off day for them because I see a lot of great reviews. We stopped in later in the evening so that may be the reason the meats were off. Again, not thrilled with our meal here, but may give them another chance earlier in the day.

First, I love a great BBQ joint that also offers tasty sides, which is hard to come by back home in…read moreNKy. My son and I both wanted to try the brisket so he got the platter and I chose the sandwich. I was told they make most of the sides that aren't fried options such as tater tots, which I was happy about. They had the classic barbecue sauce on the table as well as a spicy option. Both were equally delicious. My sandwich came on Texas toast, which is a fave. The portions were a great value as they do not skimp! The fried potatoes are made in house and they were delicious. Even though they don't make the onion rings in house they were also quite good. My one disappointment was, they don't make the majority of their desserts. And the menu states that their daughter-in-law Kayle makes different desserts daily and they didn't have that. They were actually out of several desserts, which was disappointing. Since the only ones they had were not ones made in house I chose to not get one. Since we live 3 1/2 hours away I guess I'll have to give it another shot for the dessert option next time around. Overall, the place was terrific and the folks were friendly. They have a salad bar in the middle of the floor, which is a nice touch. They have a very laid-back atmosphere and it is definitely family friendly. And you definitely get good size portions for the money.

The bbq pork looks absolutely fantastic, and smells that way too. The staff is super friendly, down home, and just plain delightful.

The tea could be sweeter but that's really my only complaint...but I really wouldn't call it a complaint. 5/5!!!

They were tuff no flavor almost watery inside just plain bad. The brisket, not anything to write home about either tuff and flavorless but better than the ribs. Asked staff if I could buy the sausage she had recommended while ordering and offered to pay for it. She ended up giving it to me on the house so that was nice and it was actually pretty tasty. Maybe a consistency issue here I don't know but for a 30$ lunch I need it to be on point this was not. I probably won't be back unfortunately because I love good BBQ.
