Heard a lot about this place so was pretty excited to come in a try it today. Needless to say, was very disappointed. I had a pulled pork sandwhich and it was way overcooked and I picked half my sandwhich away with taking out the dried out burnt meat . Mashed potatoes were also dry . Mac n cheese was ok . Ate inside and it was pretty uncomfortable with no AC. Which did not make the rest of the experience any better . We will not be back . Hope you will use this review to better some things .

I liked it, but very little variety in the menu and the sauce was too sweet.

Amazing food. The ribs, although pricey, are incredible.

Not sure why it takes an hour to make a pulled pork sandwich sounds like their system needs to be fixed

Smoked turkey sandwich was great and the jalapeño cornbread also good. I was not impressed with the Mac and cheese.
