Drive up BBQ – many Sunday meal choices when you crave BBQ for a dinner time meal. Good food and not far off the interstate.

I never try the sandwich so i decided to try the beef sandwich and the manager is really nice she ask me what sauce i want and i told her never been here before so this is my first time. The beef is really delicious and the sauce she suggest is good. I called the store and let her know i like the sandwich and the sauce. She told me try the pork and turkey next time.

My favorite thing is the turkey sandwich with slaw, pickle, and extra mayo.

I love the place each and every single time I stop by for a quick bite. Service is always TREMENDOUS! Food is always delicious!!! And in a world with ever increasing prices, their food is still very reasonable priced. If I could give more than 5 stars I honestly would. I highly recommend!!!

We stopped at this bbq place recommended by a convenient store clerk ( we are not from this state) because we wanted some good bbq. The attendant was really nice and she recommended the pies. The meat was chewy, the beans were too sweet and the coleslaw was not our taste. The need sandwich was really small and the buns we’re soggy from the coleslaw.

I had a pulled pork sandwich. Which comes with mayonnaise coleslaw and pickles. That was new for me but oh did I enjoy that. The sandwich was warm and the pork was tender. The lemonade was delicious. I also bought a chocolate pie slice. The chocolate tasted like the jello brand you get from the store. It had little unmixed in powder bits in it. Still has good flavor the texture was really throwing me off. The top layer of cream (or what ever that might be) I did not like. The crust was soft and had no flavor or crunch to it.

Received a gift card as a present. Drove 30 minutes to eat here and was told they will not take this gift card (not to mention it is drive thru only with one picnic table outside)

Their BBQ is awesome. The pork sandwich comes full to the edges, it really packs good flavor. Add some coleslaw on top of the pork, and oh man it adds the perfect crunch. Dip it in the beans and you’ll die and go to heaven.

This barbeque is amazing. I can’t imagine another restaurant will ever hold a candle to whitt’s barbeque. They have got that good round ice too. Their sandwiches should be enjoyed all the way, with chips, drink, and at least one truly adored family member.
