Large amount of meat on a soft fresh bun. Coleslaw is really delicious. Really enjoyed eating here, and I loved the rustic setting.

BBQ as it is supposed to be. I had lunch outside enjoying a beautiful day. Pork, stew, and loaf bread.

Good pork BBQ and Brunswick stew made like it's supposed to be made with corn, tomatoes and meat. Excellent slaw. Even when there is a crowd, you move through quickly and there is plenty of seating.
