Whispering Pines is as good as it gets. Founded in 1945, they still cook their barbecue using real wood that you can smell before you see it stacked by the building. Inside, it's a mix of booths and countertop seating. As you walk in, you're reminded that you can't pay by credit or debit. You seat yourself, and are promptly greeted by a kind waitress. The food is fast to the table and delicious. You can pay at the register, or if you don't need change, you can leave your money on the table. We got a kids chicken tenders with tater tots, chopped barbecue sandwich, and chili cheese tots. The waitress asked me if I wanted slaw on my sandwich, to which I said yes, and she reminded me that they use red slaw, which is just fine. I know what side of the state I live on, and when in the western part, you eat red slaw. The barbecue wasn't dry and I didn't put any sauce on it. The chili cheese tots were expertly covered, and equally delicious. My littles enjoyed the chicken tenders and tots. Cash in hand, we will be back. This place rocks.

The brisket especially just wasn't really cooked correctly. Tasted more like roast beef than brisket and was cut in thick chunks which was odd. Pulled pork was pretty good but had no bark at all. Also, no fryers for fries, okra, etc. No ice cream machine. Huge tears there. On the plus side, the interior is one of the nicest Dickeys I've been to and the people were nice.

The restaurant was busy but not overwhelmingly so, indicating the locals probably enjoy this spot. I was in the area and had a craving for pho and this was where Yelp led me. I'm a pho snob so I was a little surprised by how much I enjoyed the pho here. The broth was a little underwhelming at first, but once you add the chili oil and a touch of fish sauce, all of the flavors (the herbal essence and the beefy meatiness) came together beautifully. It hit the spot. I know it is a little short-sighted to rate this place according to just one dish, but it's what I have for you. That being said, my 4-star rating may change when I try other things on the menu the next time I come here. I normally like rating Thai restaurants by their green curry and pad thai -- so that is something to look forward to!! A few things that didn't really matter but they stood out. 1) They didn't bring out a plate of herbs for you to garnish your soup with. Instead, they added all the herbs into the soup before they brought it to the table. I get it. This is a rural area with little diversity so you want to simplify things for your main customer base. I also assume it is a waste thing. I always use up ALL of my herbs but I know most people don't . This way it saves on the waste. 2) The beef was cut chunky instead of sliced thinly like what's normal in a bowl of pho. At first, I thought it was carelessness or an oversight from the chef, but after a bite with the beef, broth, and the noodles all together, I am thinking it may be an intentional choice. With the beef pieces being bigger and chunkier, it preserves that super beefy taste. The one knock I have is my pho noodles we're all broken like I got the noodles from the bottom of the bag. It's not a huge deal. Just bad luck, I guess. Overall, good spot. Try it out!
