    Ice cold under cooked burger after waiting for 20 minutes. How hard is it to make a burger? Soda also tastes old.

There are also stalls on the back side of the building. There is one ordering sign between each pair of stalls, so you make sure you are on the correct side if you do not have passenger. The menu is pretty extensive. There are several burger options along with hot dogs and chicken sandwiches. The prices are very good, especially for the baskets which include fries. Oh, and they only take cash so make sure you stop at the ATM before you drop by. When you are ready to order, push the green button. The server answered immediately and read back out order afterwards. Our food came out in about ten minutes. It was served in a bag with lots of ketchup packets as well as some salt packets. There was only one carhop and she was quite busy but greeted us with a smile and made sure we had all we needed. Unfortunately, both burgers were average at best. The double cheeseburger had two thin meat patties which had little to no taste. The veggies were fresh and crisp and the bun was fresh and soft, but the meat simply did not add anything to the sandwich. The Carl's Fat burger was no different. The meat patty was thicker but really did not have much taste. The curly fries and regular fries were pretty good. Both were hot, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. While they were certainly busy and seem to have a large local following, the burgers were a disappointment. This would be a place to stop for fries, and the milkshakes sounded delicious.

Walking in you get the vibe that this is going to be a proper barbecue place and they do not disappoint. The dining area has down home antique decorations that give it a nice cozy feel. For food, they have a varied menu with a variety of meats, but pulled pork is my go to so I ordered a sandwich with slaw...it came piled high with enough meat for two meals! The side of barbecue beans was also excellent. Growing up in Knoxville my favorite was always the local chain there, but Small Town will have me "cheating" the next time I'm in the area. Check them out if you want some great 'cue.

    This is the best barbecue that we have found for the area; but I'm from Texas, and in my opinion,…read moreit's just different. That said, their chicken wing rub was very sweet and I was expecting a spicy rub. The pork ribs were good. The bologna tasted like hotdogs honestly. The sourdough bread wasn't really sour, it just tasted like regular white bread. Of the sauces, our favorites were Tennessee Red and Spicy mixed together; and we found that by mixing them together, it tasted closer to what we were used to. They still had a bit of an aftertaste that we couldn't quite place. I loved their cute store and their service was amazing! I told them about my egg allergy while ordering and was promised everything would be egg free. We had gotten the bacon burger with sauce that looked very similar to thousand island dressing, and the restaurant made it right by making us a brand new one, while profusely apologizing. We understand that there may be a little bit of cross-contamination, but the dressing on the burger was more than cross-contamination. The lady who took our order told us there was nothing on the burger except for burger, bacon and cheese, and then asked if I wanted lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles on the side. I asked specifically about the condiments and she said they don't put any condiments on their burgers. The bathrooms and store overall were very clean and very well kept. It felt like good small town America. If it weren't for the egg allergy sauce mixup, they would've gotten four stars.

Or is it just not cleaned properly. Once seated we waited and waited for a staff member to come to welcome us and offer drinks however no one came over for a good 15 minutes once seated. The staff were seen in the corner talking and pointing. We then overheard that they were deciding who would get the table. The bartender then waited on us. She did not seem happy at all. We ordered ribs , brisket , etc the brisket was DRY and overcooked, an embarrassment to bbq in the south. The burger which was suppose to be medium well was rare. The next waiter who took over came by a when we were basically done and offered to further cook the burger but at that point we were done with the "meal" I told him about the brisket being dry and overcooked and he didn't seem to care. We paid the bill for everything, and left. Overall service was horrible- you work in a service industry, there's no reason why you need to come to our table with such an or facial expressions that don't look friendly. Bbq- if you're gonna claim having the best ribs or brisket, make sure it can live up to those standards I think 2 stars is more than friendly for this review. Would not return when visiting again. Wash your floors better
