WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

My mom was so excited to take me here for lunch, proclaiming it was the first barbecue she’s ever really liked. After trying a pork plate lunch special, I can see why.

Kristin B., Atlanta, GA

I love the pulled pork sandwiches that come on a plain hamburger bun. I don’t do brunswick stew but I hear their’s is the best. And the ribs…omg the ribs..

Lauren S., San Francisco, CA

We eat here about twice per month. This is some of the best barbecue in our area. The staff is very friendly and service is great. They always have high ratings on the food inspectors inspection. Go by and get some great BBQ.
