About this business
Mechanic-turned-grillmaster Gene Porter turns out Southern barbecue and down-home ambiance in the land of high technology. Dixie's optional "The Man" sauce is about as hot as sauce comes, so go easy; meals have been ruined here by unwary applications. The already spicy, already delicious barbecue doesn't really need the boost. Order Ribs, Chicken or a Brisket Sandwich with Southern diner sides like beans and rice, potato salad, baked beans and corn bread. And don't forget iced tea to soothe the burn. This place can draw a cr... read more

HORRIBLY OVERATED BY MICROSOFTIES – This is the most disgusting BBQ I've had in my life. I have no clue why the droves of MS blue badges continue to sing its praise. The meat quality is poor, the sauces are not flavorful and the help is rude. Heck I've given this place more than one chance as well, it has continued to dissapoint. The hype behingd this place is amazing and warrants study by a sociologist. Man if advertizers could generat such hype over such a crappy product they'd make a mint. Ah, now I understand the cliente... read more
The atmosphere is great, the food bad – I've never understood the fascination people have with Dixies. The food is generally greasy and completely unpalatable, the sauces bland other than The Man, and The Man is nothing but fire without the flavor. Even when you mix them, you're still stuck with a rather unpleasant taste. Also, Dixie doesn't smoke his meat nearly enough, so you end up without the depth fo flavor you should get with really great BBQ. The atmosphere, with Dixie cajoling people into trying The Man and the cashi... read more
Atmosphere, not food – I'm from the south and have my own smoker for briskette and ribs. Dixie's doesn't smoke their meats over wood but rather over "pellets". It definitely doesn't taste like the real thing. And the BBQ sauce is bland and needs spicing up, but the MAN sauce overdoes it. Great atmostphere, but the slice is nowhere in the range of Pecos Pit or the Frontier Room (toured the kitchen there - 14 hour smoke over cedar, very good). Jack
This Place Rules!! – I stinkin' loved this place! Although, yeah, you will be verbally abused - part of the fun and humor - you will still need to visit here to experience the uniqueness! The food is delicious, the people are real, and The Man is HOT! Not hot... HELLACIOUS! I HIGHLY recommend that if you're looking for a unique dining experience, give this place a shot - IT RULEZ! BTW, the line is HUGE @ about noon.
get a clue – I always chuckle to myself when talking about bbq and someone bring up dixies. Don't get me wrong, the food is good but their claim to fame is the "man" sauce - a sauce so hot it's literally dangerous. We've all got friends who pride themselves on being able to handle the spiciest foods. It's funny to watch them confidently load up on the stuff and then squirm in pain as the man works them over. But if you want tender, melt in your mouth, smoked to perfection bbq with sauce that is a perfect blend of tangy spice... read more
Loved it! – "The Man" sauce at Dixie's was intense! My friend and myself both passed out from it. An ambulance came and everything. Whew! If you like spicey food go try the sauce at Dixie's. I'll be going back for round two! One word of advice, don't try "The Man" on a totally empty stomach. It's a real kick in the pants! I made that mistake already. ^_^ The people there are just super and it is a very fun enviornment. I don't understand all the negative reviews here. It rocked. I bet those guys just couldn't handle "The Man... read more
Not that good – "The Man" is awful, and the way it is thrust upon you is wrong. The BBQ is mushy, and the sauce is not that good. Try Pecos instead of dealing with the Eastsiders in their SUVs.
Real BBQ is close at hand – Dixie's terribly overrated. The BBQ is second rate at best, and "the Man" sauce is a very stale practical joke with no redeeming qualities other than an occasion for watching geeks attempting to out macho each other. Do yourself a favor and head over to Jones BBQ in the Crossroads mall -- the ambience of Dixie's is missing, but the BBQ (the ribs in particular) is ten times better, and the sauce is actually edible and complements the meat.
Pretty Darn Good – Is it the best BBQ around? Since I've never gotten BBQ in the South, I really can't say, but this California Yankee thinks Dixie's food is mighty fine. A lot of people are obsessed with the "Man" sauce, but that's just for show. The real deal is the actual food and the whole ambience of the place. Cool old blues plays on the radio. The owner is always hovering with a bucket of his hot sauce, entertaining the customers while melting their tastebuds. If you get yelled at by the servers, that's probably becau... read more
