Being a local foodie of Cincinnati, especially when it comes to Bar-B-Q, I have to put my two cents worth in the smoker. 1.) I liked the beans! Awesome! 2.) Pulled pork sandwich, very good. 3.) Ribs, good flavor. 4.) Sauce... hmmmm. 5.) Cash only? Bummer. I had to leave and come back. Not good. 6.) Overall, I will try it again. Just so I can figure out the sauce.

We went there today for the first time. It was the best BBQ I've ever eaten.... And I'm old and have eaten a lot! It was amazing as were the sides. Ate our food surrounded by people of all ages and walks of life with Dolly Parton album playing on an old turntable! Lol. Fabulous place! They cater too and we'll be using them!
