The wait after you order is a little ridiculous, but the Turkey is always amazing and the pork is never a disappointment.

Pulled pork here is amazing and the atmosphere is great. Sauce is excellent - sweet with a slight hot finish. And the baked beans are delicious, especially dirty (with the pork crispies on top). I've had a lot of BBQ all over the country and in my opinion this is the best BBQ I've ever had.

I've been there many times. The last time I went the turkey was too salty n I could taste charcoal fluid...couldn't eat it. I don't think there Mac n cheese is good...too much Velveeta. When we went Sunday I tried turkey again. It was tasty like I've had first few times...still a bit too salty. I was shocked at how expensive they have become. My son said owner has to pay for new restaurants he's opening. I prefer city barbecue...I only come here bcuz my son n wife always wants to come here.

First time yesterday. Excellent. I had Smoked Turkey Sandwich. Sides of Baked Beans and Mashed Potatoes. BTW Best Baked Beans Ever. I am definitely going back. Very cool atmosphere and retro feel to it. Highly recommend.
