Our experience started before we even ordered our food. We simply asked Carl (a member of the pit…read morestaff) what type of wood was used to smoke the meat. That question turned into Carl proudly explaining the process from preparation, to smoking to plate and everything in-between. His enthuasism, artisanal detail, and forthrightness to answer our questions were extremely valued and appreciated. Carl went way beyond our expectations and set the tone for the rest of our meal. After conversing with Carl he walked us to the counter, introduced us to the staff making the plates and explaned the ordering process to us. We ordered several items on the menu so we we could each sample them. The brisket was exceptional... on point. Burnt ends were delicious. Sausage is a must to order. Absolutely incredible. Sides were lights out. The Mac and cheese was marvelous. Picnic perfect potato salad. Superb slaw and the corn casserole let's just say that we should have ordered a much larger size. We met Mason when we were checking out. His over the top customer service and genuine care for our satisfaction were greatly appreciated. As we were eating both Carl and Mason came over to see if we were enjoying our meal. We couldn't praise them enough. Everything about our visit was phenomenal. The food was delicious, the customer service by Carl, Mason and the rest of your employees was top notch. We look forward to visiting again and taking the pit class when we return to the valley. Thank you Caldwell County BBQ team!!!

The atmosphere is quaint, welcoming, and full of character. Now let's talk about the food--the smoked turkey is hands-down some of the best I've ever had. Tender, juicy, and packed with smoky flavor. And the brisket? Absolutely incredible. It was so tender it practically fell apart with every bite. You can tell everything is made with care and quality ingredients. Whether you're stopping in for lunch or just browsing the store, this place is a must-visit. Great food, friendly service, and all the small-country-store charm you could ask for. I'll definitely be back for more of that brisket!

As always, we love the BBQ here...we typically get the moist brisket, the smoked potatoes, the three bean salad...today I also added a couple of corns and their cole slaw. The food is always so good and we find very consistent. Here's where the customer service outshined previous visits...when I got there and started to order our to-go dinner, I was told the potatoes were gone and they were making more but it would be about 20-30 minutes before they were ready. I was told that someone previously had come in an purchased 30 potatoes, which I will always say...if you are going to order something that large from a restaurant, please be considerate and pre-order so they are prepared. You walking in and ordering that big of an order put the people behind you without some of their choices. No worries today...it's Mom's Day and I wasn't going to sway from getting BBQ for our dinner. I had some other things to do so left the store to take care of other business. Once back home (we live fairly close to the store), I called to ask if the potatoes were ready and after being placed on a brief hold, was told they had some ready but they were flying out the door! The young lady asked me if I wanted to place an order over the phone and decided to do that just so I could be sure we had their most wonderful smoked potatoes. I drove down to pick up our order and was met with some of the best staff, who laughed with me about the situation. They agreed about people calling beforehand when wanting that much food, apparently they also got about 30 lbs of meat as well. It's all good and we will be back when we need our Rudy's fix!

Given we've gone on high protein, we look for BBQ places and have had amazing BBQ at decent places. Tried this one out as it was close by. It was a Friday and it was LOUD. The live music was okay, but blasting almost giving me a headache. The place was pretty empty for a Friday evening. Lot of tables were empty, that should have been our que, but we were exhausted and wanted to have some good food. Place was dark and only little lighting near the bar area. The food arrived and the brisket and meats was dry to the bone . The only good thing was the corn on the cob because it was douced with butter and herbs. Never again going here.

Before even stepping into the building, I was excited because the outside looked like something from a Western movie. There was plenty of parking, and from the parking lot being majority-filled, I knew this would be a good stop. You can also see the outdoor seating from the parking lot, and it was filled with a couple families. The walk in directs you straight to the smokehouse/restaurant. You order at the counter, and then you either get a seat number and choose a seat or wait at the counter for pick up. There was a decent sized menu of bbq options, sides and drinks. The dessert display was filled with what looked to be DELECTABLE goodies! :) (this is what I'd try when I come back, FOR SURE!). I ordered the double meat platter with a half rack of ribs and brisket. The sides were chose were baked beans and Mac and cheese. The platter came with the two rolls, as well. This was to share with one other person. I'd say the ribs were okay, not my favorite! The brisket, on the other hand, had a PERFECT Smokey taste. The Mac and cheese was okay and so were the baked beans (they were super sweet, if that's what you're going for!). Add the regular bbq sauce on the side for dipping and you've got a tasty meal! After dining, we were able to go around the antique shop in the back. It was HUGE! And it kept GOING AND GOING! There here vendors of all sorts from furniture to home goods to jewelry to clothes/shoes. There's a little something for everyone here! There was even a hidden (I guess not hidden if you know about it), second hand, vintage clothing store in the very back. I didn't walk out with anything, but it was as worth the window shopping! The exit was through the antique shop near the cash wrap. Overall, the experience was lovely. The food was in the mid range for me, but I'd come back for dessert and the shopping.

We've done the brisket, pulled pork, turkey, and sausage. All are fantastic, but the brisket comes out on top. Incredible flavor and always so moist. The house made pickles are also a delightful addition. What really put it all over the top was our experience today. I was resisting the bread pudding but just couldn't stop thinking about it and ended up caving and getting it to go after we finished our meal. The man behind the counter, assuming one of the owners, made sure we got to try the homemade vanilla ice cream... game over. It was so damn good. 5/5 for food and service.

Very delicious and absolutely worth the hype. Tips: Parking can be limited and the wait can be long, so come prepared. Stay cool, stay hydrated, and definitely use the restroom before you arrive.

(the only way you're able to place an order) I went to pick it up at the time that was given on the app, my credit card was charged immediately. When I went to pick up my order, they were closed. The Sign with the hours of operation were posted and stated they should have been open. I went back to my car and called the phone number on the app, which was a recording. I left a message with my phone number for them to call me. The next day I received a text that said my money was refunded which it was, everything but the tip I had left. I never received a call from them, no acknowledgment at all as to why they were closed and why they kept the tip. I am in the F&B business and no, they could have refunded the total amount that was charged to my card, but they decided to keep the tip. Pretty disappointing and unethical. Edit: I appreciate the response from Nana's kitchen, but it was not just a "bank processing delay" I left my phone number on the recording and asked for a call back, which I never got, had that happened I would not have had to leave review. Communication goes a long way.

How a team reacts to problems tells me more about the place than just having a 3 or 4 star experience - this group showed experience, grace, and real concern. To start - if you want a booth, make sure you specify that when you put in your name - it changes the wait time. While we waited, we ordered Cokes from the bar, and Marquis gave a warm welcome and great service! Upon finally sliding into our booth, we found the seats hadn't been brushed off - and it was very crumb-y (pun intended) - we ended up using our napkins and then grabbing new sets from a nearby table. We also learned the Coke was FLAT and bitter - not great. However our server, Calvin, during that typical greeting and small talk actually invited us to share our concerns, asking us not to hold back and as a result went above and beyond to turn our experience around. An additional visit from Manager Josh followed, apologizing and genuinely seemed to want the the feedback as a tool for improvement and coaching for some new staff. From that point, everything was great! From getting replacement drinks, to sampling the pulled pork and brisket to tender ribs, and the good sized Cajun shrimp appetizer, the team truly redeemed the evening, and the apple cobbler (it's got a pastry top!) and cinnamon sugar donuts was a great close to the meal. Calvin and Josh gave a masterclass in how to turn a meh start into a memorable meal. We're looking forward to going back - next time with a booth request upfront!

We were seated quickly, which was a great start. Unfortunately, it took quite a while for our server to come over, and it seemed like she was really struggling to keep up with her tables. I understand that things can get busy, but it did affect the overall experience. The food is usually very good here, which is why this visit was disappointing. Everything came out cold, and my favorite Cajun shrimp looked like it had been sitting in water--it just wasn't up to the usual standard. I recently found out that this location is under different ownership, which may explain the change. Because of this experience, I'll likely be taking my family to Bobby Q's Phoenix in the future, even though it's a bit farther away.
