Great goodness!! The white sauce is incredible!! We enjoyed a pulled pork platter with fried okra and fries and a brisket platter with fried corn nuggets and slaw…..Yum, yum, yum! Ended the meal with fried carmel cheesecake(glad we shared it! It’s huge), it was warm on the outside and cool inside, great ending to the meal!

Great vibe and friendly staff. They give a discount if you are staying at the RV park next door. Decent BBQ and corned beef and cabbage. Their SW egg rolls are delicious!!

The potatoe salad tasted like the mayo in it was spoiled, but the staff gave me a diff side w/o any hassle. The brioche bun was Great with the hot link. Baked beans were good, n the meat could use some seasoning.

One of the best BBQ restaurants in the area. We’ve ate here a couple times and had a variety of the meats, all were very good and done right. Both times the service was top notch and a nice clean rustic atmosphere. We’ve tried a good variety of the sides and they are all as good as I’ve had anywhere! The potato salad is perfect!!! Great baked beans also! If we lived a little closer we would eat here often. I really highly recommend this restaurant.

It was warm and inviting considering the temp outside was 31 but wind chill was 21. The decor wasn’t over done. The staff was welcoming. The pulled pork had a good smoke flavor the turkey wasn’t dry. The baked beans were some of the better ones I’ve at BBQ places. We ate here on recommendation of front office staff at campground Adjacent to it. We were not disappointed

Poor workers were working a bad AC unit! Still, food was solid and would certainly come back, just not on the hottest day of the year.

Stumbled on this place searching for good BBQ on a drive home through the east side of the Mississippi; glad we found it. Cute place, owner’s wife explained the menu. We got Pulled Pork and Brisket plates which includes two sides. Pork very moist and lean, a bit weak on smoke flavor, but still excellent! Brisket plate had 8 thick slices, wonderful smoky flavor, tender, better than any steak! Baked beans the best according to my wife. Potato salad and homemade slaw excellent. Pasta salad was a bit sweet but still very tasty. Will definitely go back. If you are traveling through, worth a small detour, just a couple miles off I-55.

Was taken here for lunch during orientation for a job. The brisket was delicious and tender, the creamy coleslaw was perfect, and the crinkle cut fries were crispy, golden and not over salted. I’d recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes barbecue!

I came from Columbia to pick this up, and it was the BEST decision ever. Seriously might be one of the best meals I have ever had! I got the steak and shrimp meal with green beans and jalapeño Mac bites. SO good!

The bar b que was amazing. The brisket was loaded with meat. Smoked to perfection and just bursting with flavor. You really don’t need any of the bar b que sauce they make but the Carolina Gold one is definitely a must try. Fries were crispy sweet potato fries were fresh. Meal was executed well. Salud
