On top of that, the burger was big and seriously filling, so I left happy and satisfied.

Not too syrupy, not too weak -- just pure Southern hospitality in a Styrofoam cup. Country Burger House didn't just feed me -- they healed me. Five out of five. Will absolutely risk the gas prices to go back.

The bun was toasted perfectly while the beef patty itself sang lovely taste notes in our mouths. I think these are charbroiled patties cause they had tasty bits of char. The seasoning was perfect on the meat and it was a nice plump size. They do not shy away from balsamic vinegar glaze and I'm here for it. I opted for the pasta salad instead of chips and it was a simple and clean recipe. Fresh tomatoes and grated cheese topped the salad. Super refreshing. My mother and law and I split the amazing roasted Brussel sprouts. Again, a nice balsamic glaze and cheese topped these as well. The place has a lovely charm and warmth to it. I believe we were interacting with the family who owns and runs the place when we went, the chef came by to ask how things were. My wife adored the books since she's on the hunt for her next read!

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS PLACE HAS BAD REVIEWS!!! It's at the point where I downloaded YELP just to give this place the review it deserves! The Food is truly amazing and the service is astronomically good, what more could you ask for! I come to this place at least twice a week now and I'm so happy I found this hole in the wall BBQ spot, Just please try it and you'll understand what I'm talking about! Look forward to seeing yall there P.S. - the only con I can tell is when I sat down to dine in the first time - the reception in the building was non existent but that let me enjoy my food without a distraction lmao, just be wary of that read more

I'm a BBQ fanatic and this place serves up the best BBQ I've eaten in a long while. I've tried other local BBQ restaurants in the Seago-Crandall-Kaufman area and they don't even come close. Shorty's offers a wide variety of meats, sides(the BEST potato salad), and desserts at a fare price. Oh, they don't skimp on the servings either! Very friendly staff, clean, and I love the idea of having a Bible on every table. Can't go wrong stopping off at Shorty's for a bite to eat!! read more

The potato was excellent, the sauce was very good, the meats...well, I've had better if I'm being honest. The potato was topped with loads of goodies - sour cream, bacon bits, and a ton of cheese. On top of this was sausage, brisket and ribs, covered with sauce. The brisket was pretty dry. Without the sauce, it was a little tough to chew. The ribs were cut funky and while they had a very nice smokey flavor, they were pretty tough as well. The sausage was good. I will definitely be going back and trying again, especially for the baked potato.

That's my go to if I'm ever checking out a BBQ place. It was about $8 which several of the items were. It can get pricey ordering several items but nonetheless the price is the price. The seasoning is definitely one of the high points for this business, it might be dangerous to people with high blood pressure or blood sugar, but overall it was different. Seasoning the buns is something many BBQ places don't do. The meat was fresh and cooked well, the only setback was that this meal took about 20 minutes to cook. I was able to walk to the nearby gas station, come back and still wait about 10 minutes. It all tasted great though, definitely come and support them if you catch them around town!

The price for a 3 meat plate was around $24 the serving is decent even tho the plates feel small but once you open it's a good amount. I like supporting small businesses but I feel like if I'm going to spend that much money as the chain spots I want a little more "ummmppphhhh" for my buck. Brisket felt a little dry but eatable. The smoked sausage stole the show for me it was great! And the pulled pork tasted around the same as other bbq spots. This forney are is still being expanded so the ambiance wasn't as good but it can only get better! Give it a try and let me know what Y'all think!
