    Ribs

    I ordered the Rib plate with 3 sides. I got fried mushrooms , Fried Green Tomatoes , and Potato Salad. They were all very delicious . I got so much food that I have a complete meal for dinner. The ribs were huge and meaty. Very tender. We will be back for sure.

    Stumbled upon this spot while wondering aimlessly through the great state of Alabama. On the corner of a busy intersection in this part of the state. I asked the waitress to order for me of all the best thing of Chris's. She came back with 2 plates of food!!! Huge portions of food. See the photos. I was very excited to try it all. At first glance it is all very appealing but alas so few places can cook bbq without drying it out. Let's talk about what was great, potato salad was better than I have had in years. Mayo based with a perfect twang and not too much pickle to overpower the experience. Fried okra was cooked perfectly with just the right amount of crunch to chew ratio. The failure started with the very dry ribs. You will be thrown off by the "A-1" style bbq sauce. It actually didn't take away from the bbq but it didn't exactly help the meat other than for moisture. Chopped pork was good but lacked anything to set it apart. The chicken was down right horrible. Way over cooked and I am left wondering if it is yesterday's chicken. Result is I would come back for the sides and the burger looked good but I haven't eaten it.

    Not the most luxurious place; but, food is excellent at reasonable prices. Owner should renovate restaurant for more attraction.

By the time you get up there to pay and get your drink cup, the food is already coming up. I ordered the pull pork plate with 2 sides and a drink for $11! Can't beat that price. The fries came out hot, the pork was juicy, and the greens flavorful. Doesn't come with sauce on it but there's plenty of options on the dressing table to pick from. The only downside is the parking situation... it's insanity, with folks here in work trucks, cars, motorcycles, you name it. The line just to get in the door can be long, but the staff does a great job of getting people in & out within the time of their lunch break. Pack your patience & give them a try!

I know people throw out places like Texas, the Carolinas and Tennessee as barbecue meccas, but I stand by my claim that some of the best barbecue comes from the great state of Alabama and Fatman's is great proof of my claim. I walked in and there was a line, but it moved fast and the helpless taking our our orders were friendly. The inside is pretty much low on ambiance, but the food is the real star here. Since it was packed inside, I got my food to-go and ate at a nearby park. I had the pulled pork plate with camp stew and potato salad. Everything was absolutely wonderful. I would definitely recommend here and I give it five stars.

The ribs were larger than expected with a tangy vinegar based sauce that made them delicious flavorful. The smoked sausage was just as good without being too dry. The chicken was juicy and we'll shredded, and the spicy rib wrap was well balanced with the portions that had some heat to the coleslaw due to jalapenos on it The sides were very good with the beans being the best option. The mac and cheese should have been the hero and while they were cheesy they lacked that favor you'd expected from a BBQ joint. The potato salad was decent, but nothing to write home about. Honestly the fried okra was surprisingly the second best as the sweet coleslaw underperformed Overall, the meats made the trip worth it, the vibe was amazing as it had that laid back feel and the service was great! They don't sell hard liquor so went with beer, but the selections we limited. I'd still recommend trying them out if you are ever in town. Cool spot that makes you feel like you're in the South!
