Delicious food. The beans are awesome. The brisket and pulled pork was phenomenal. Friendly staff, reasonable prices. Would come back if in the area.

Our party of 5 ate smoked turkey (just ok), pulled pork (good), and brisket (fantastic). The green beans were lackluster and bland. Corn fritters were tasty. The collards tasted like they came from a can. The sauces we tried were all good. It was clean and friendly. We did get kind of yelled out for not recycling our beer bottle, but there was no recycling bin so kind of hard to recycle without having a bin or a sign. Not overly impressed, but not a bad lunch either.

Witnessed the owner (elderly lady) chastise a pickup order customer for using door dash, trying to invoke pity on the customer for door dash taking 25%.Take door dash or don’t. Charge more if you want to, everyone else does. Don’t you dare criticize a customer for YOUR choice to use door dash and not understand how to run a modern restaurant.Additionally, I asked if the green beans had pork in them. The lovely cashier pointed to a chart saying they were not vegetarian. I explained I did not care if chicken or beef were in them, it was pork specifically. She said she would go check. The people in the kitchen interrupted her question and yelled at her to look at the chart. The tall kitchen manager then came to the register and point at the sign in front of my face and read it to me as if I could not read (condescending). I then politely explained my question, and he walked away saying “chicken stock” while not directly addressing me.The food here is good but everyone needs a serious attitude adjustment. Quite sad, really. Must be a very toxic work environment…which is usually because of the owner at a restaurant.

Took my aunt and her hubby and mine. They all loved it. I keep going back weekly. Absolutely love everything greenbeans perfect and potato salad the best restaurant ones I've had. Love the brown sugar sauce also. 5 stars definitely.

Some of the greatest BBQ I've ever tasted! The babyback ribs and the pulled chicken was so tender, the baked beans were really good!!! Definitely worth a second, third or fourth trip. Oh and The Chipotle sauce complimented the meats wonderfully. Keep up the great work ? ?

The beef was so tender! So delicious as well. The lady that served us was friendly and checked on us during the meal to make sure we were satisfied.

This place is delicious! Great BBQ and really good service. The staff is super friendly and hospitable. You order at the counter and they bring your food out to you. Plenty of seating and a few TV's inside. Gluten free friendly as well which is a huge bonus. Their brisket, turkey, sweet potato tots, pulled pork, texas toast, and sauces are delicious. The 3 Cheese Mac N Cheese was a bit bland and could have been better but I would dine here again. Thanks for a great experience guys!

Love the owners! So sweet, friendly and truly felt at welcomed. Food was beyond delicious. I had the ribs and oh man meat falls right off the bone. I'm not a sauce person and still tasty! My son had the pulled chicken. He is 5 and asked for more!! He raved about it. Oh my daughter told me to be sure to mention the Mac n cheese. So cheesy and yummy! My husband has the brisket and sausage - 5 stars for sure. Oh I added 3 smoked chicken wings and glad I did. They were amazing. The owner's daughter recommended a few sauces and did not disappoint. We will definitely be back.

I got the rib platter with 2 sides. I was not impress with the ribs, can't really describe but they were not good. My 2 sides were collard greens and baked beans. Greens were bland, I'm not sure why they charge a 20 cent up charge for this and the bake beans tasted like they came from a can. Not impress. Restaurant is over rated and waste of 22 dollars. I gave 2 stars because staff was nice.

Ordered the brisket sandwich with honey-chipotle and regular sauce as the nice lady at the register told me I'd be able to split sauce options. For sides, I picked the mac and cheese. I glanced around the restaurant while I waited and as soon as I put the order in, it was ready to take home!The fat on the brisket tasted tummy, but overall the meat was a little drier than I liked. The sauces helped with the flavor but didn't stand out to me as exceptional. The mac and cheese side was kind of small and was alright as well. I added the hot sauce I had at home to it for extra flavor.Overall, I think there's still a lot of stiff competition for BBQ in the triad, but this would be a great and affordable lunch/dinner option to pick up for something quick to satisfy a meaty craving.
