They typically have a couple different pulled pork options, such as pineapple habanero and maple…read morehickory. The pineapple habanero is my go-to; super flavorful! You get a choice of spicy or regular sauce. The spicy is served in a little container; the regular is squirted on. Plate includes pulled pork and 2 sides for $8.00. The sides are where they lose a star. Potato salad is the best... go for it. Baked beans... the serving is so small, don't bother... and it's nothing special. Smoked Mac and cheese... steer clear! A messy gray, tasteless mush. I don't know how they can serve that mess. For a great smoked Mac and cheese, go to P.B's BBQ on Jordan... you will thank me. Day-old-tasting roll served with the plate. Pork is great, potato salad is delightful.

They have a really spicy sauce, pineapple habanero, for when I'm in the mood. Their smoky, cheesy macaroni and other side selections are very good also -- so Doctor BBQ is not just a meat truck! Always a pleasure to visit their truck! Where will they be next? They have a Facebook page. They can be found at local Breweries, at the Redstone NASA food corral, and other North Alabama locations! Do not miss out, track them down!

And the beans equally tiny. Yes, the sandwich tasted fine. There was little to no sauce and a dab of slaw. After reading good reviews, pretty disappointing.

I was pretty pleasantly surprised with Simmons! I often find that drive-through only bbq is very…read morehit or miss, but this place is a hit for me. Like I said, this operation is drive-through only, so all meals are made to-go. I got mine shortly after work for a late lunch. City harbor is a short drive away, so I toodled over there for a view of the water while I ate. The drive through line moved quickly enough. The menu has bbq, the less fancy bbq sides (beans, slaw, chips), family pack meals for a variety of crowd sizes, as well as loaded potatoes and nachos. I selected a pork loaded baked potato with a Diet Pepsi (iirc - don't think it was Coke). I think my lunch ~$12, which isn't too bad for the serving sizes. The lady at the drive through was polite and welcoming. My pork tater was quite large and came with liquidy butter, cheese, and dollops of sour cream and bacon bits on top. The bacon bits, while the pre-packaged salad garnish kind, are a pleasant surprise - you don't often get those on bbq taters without asking. The potato was cooked nicely, still warm and soft. I genuinely enjoyed the Que, enough so that I'd get it on a sandwich or on a plate without the goodness of a potato there as backup, lol. I don't like bbq sauce on my taters but I did dip a small piece of pork in the cup they gave me. It's a more vinegar based sauce, but it had enough sweetness to it that I still enjoyed it. Thanks for a quick, easy, and tasty lunch!

It's a humble restaurant, the inside isn't going to wow you - cabin like appearance and very simple seating. And you can smell the smoke as you pull up.

I honestly can't imagine ever going back to the big city for a "culinary experience" as long as I have eating options like this. Bon Appetit / happy eating, yelpers!

Driving back home to Huntsville through the Scottsboro area, I stopped in on a whim, hungry and…read morehoping to support a non-chain restaurant unique to the area. I lucked out with Holy Smokes. I've been to a couple barbeque places in Scottsboro, and this is my favorite so far. The parking lot is a little bumpy / pot-holey so be careful pulling in. I rolled into the restaurant and immediately felt that this was a local-type spot. The man operating the cash register was engaged in a very friendly, familiar conversations with someone eating there. However, he paused his conversation immediately when I walked up to him and taught me about the different sauces they offered. I'm glad he did, because I definitely have bbq sauce preferences, and he steered me in the right direction! Their fairly large menu is handwritten on the board behind the register, but I opted for a lunch deal they had running - a small pulled pork sandwich with chips and a drink for only $5!! Now granted, it was a small sandwich -- if you were starving you'd likely need a little something extra -- but for how delicious the sandwich was and for that cheap, you really can't do much better than that! The pulled pork itself was really, really good - honestly some of the best bbq I've had in north Alabama. Tender, moist, moderately smoky, not too fatty. Really, really good stuff. The sweet sauce the man at the register set me up with was good too, also faintly smoky and tangy on top of the usual sweet tomato flavor. It was a delicious sandwich, and the sweet tea I got was good too, though maybe not quite sweet enough for me. I plan on coming back with family so we can try some of their other bbq. If the pork stays consistent and the other stuff is even 75% as good, this could definitely be a 5 star spot. Check it out if you're in the area!

It was rarely a family event when we didn't make it to Tate's to pick up pulled pork. If you want a sweet sauce, this is not really your place. This is truly a hole in the wall, and the hours are limited, and not always followed (the only reason it doesn't get a 5 for me), but the smoke flavor is better than most of the big name places. It was so nice to enjoy our 3 pounds we brought home and had on sandwiches for the fourth. It tasted like home. To the owners of Tate's-I have never found another place that does it quiet like you do. This is the best. Only advice-call ahead! This way you don't miss them! Hope to see you next time I am "home."

This is the best BBQ pork that I've eaten at a restaurant, succulent, delicate, smokey, flavorful, esthetically appealing, and it makes me wish that we had something like this in the Atlanta area. I love fried okra, when it's cooked properly, and with that comes critical feedback; their version reminds me of how my grandmother made her fried okra (and that's the standard I use to measure all others by.) The mixed greens had a slight hint of smoky ham hock, probably could have benefitted from a little more salt, but I understand that some people have to watch their sodium intake so I bet the restaurant leaves that up to the customer. Our server was a delight, very smiley and cheery, welcoming, etc. Inside, it feels like they have preserved history and married it to classy modernity. The next time I visit Albertville, this will be on the to-do list. Keep up the good work, folks!

One piece of advice, is avoid the baked beans. They're a bit overly sweet. And to me baked beans should have some bacon in them or something like that. These disappointed a bit.

And to be honest, the thing that really stole the show was at noon they play the national anthem and everybody stands to face the flag, I love the patriotic atmosphere and you can tell that this place is run by people who care.
