I had the 1/2 pound of brisket on Monday (12/18) & it was so good that I did not feel guilty about not sharing with my dog. There was no fat but the meat was so tender & juicy!
From the first bite I wished I had gotten the full pound. I thought about it all day/night Tuesday & all day today. I drove by after work & was very sad that they're closed. The operating days/hours on the old paper menus in the window, Yelp, & Google have not been updated. Fb says new hours start Jan 1. Thu-Sun open at 1 & close at 7:45, 8:45, 8:45, & 5:45.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Eric F.Bellevue, WA142Apr 11, 2024

The food was absolutely delicious. We got 1/2 chicken, pulled pork, and 3 sausages. We got macncheese, collards, and Coleslaw. They gave us more than 1/2 loaf of white bread. I added the baked beans and dill pickles. So good!! Please note, they are cash only

They put out excellent BBQ here. Their meats have a nice smoke flavor and still remain juicy.
They offer sauce-on or on the side for all of their meats.
Their sides are large enough for 2 to share and still have some leftover.
Take-out only, they take cash and also cash app.
Unfortunately, I have to minus one star as the bun for my pulled pork sandwich was crumbly and almost stale, plus the young man that took my order could not manage to say "hello," "thank you," or even a "goodbye."
I look forward to trying them again.Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 0 - Eric O.Chicago, IL681213Apr 1, 2023
Hands down, the best bbq chicken and ribs I've had in at least four decades. The meats were perfectly cooked, and the sauce proved to be addictive.
The potato salad is absolutely on point. The entire joint is on point.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Johali P.Seminole, FL19Aug 11, 2023
Best hands down! Don't bother watching the fancy names. Drive up and enjoy the deliciousness.

Excellent food and great service. They're right by a little bit of green space that has picnic tables under a couple of trees. If it had been a little bit cooler out, it'd be a nice place to hang.
