My husband and I seen this restaurant on an episode of True South that airs on the SEC Network. We traveled there today to give it a try and we’re so glad we did. Miss Anita is an amazing individual and truly loves what she does and has a heart of gold. The energy she gives off made my heart overflow with happiness. Her staff was friendly and kind as well. The food was true southern goodness and was very very delicious. Thank you for sending us home with a full belly and heart as well.

Very good old school open pit BBQ. Sauce is very thin BBQ dip with little or no tomato. Cooked cabbage is excellent. Prices are dirt cheap for authentic BBQ.

We were passing through and was looking for something other than fast food. We were not let down by our choice! I had the pork shoulder and my wife got the shredded pork sandwich. Food was amazing, service was outstanding. Highly recommend!

Stopped by for lunch and was not disappointed. Excellent service. Nice folks. Had the Chicken plate with vinegar coleslaw, cabbage and green beans. The chicken was pretty good 4/5 – The white meat was a tad overdone but typical almost everywhere as the thighs and dark meat must be cooked all the way through. The Green Beans were the best 5/5 – Could eat those all day. The cabbage was overcooked (no texture at all…too mushy) but had a good flavor 3/5 and the Vinegar Coleslaw had a nice sweet tang to it 3/5 – Not for everyone with the strong vinegar flavor. Overall I’ll be back for the chicken and green beans if nothing else.

Different to anything I’ve had, the pulled pork sandwich was amazing! Truly a gem, the staff was the definition of southern hospitality and so extremely sweet.

I recommend R&S BBQ to anyone that wants great BBQ! They are friendly and treat you like family! Mrs. Anita loves to talk to all her customers and learn about your family if she doesn’t already know you
