I debated about 3 stars and would have gone 3.5 if it was an option. Macs is really close and I have eaten there plenty of times over the last few years. Their sides are amazing but their bbq just isn't that good. Their brisket plate comes with 3 pieces and you will get 1 that is melt in your mouth and another that is really tough. I just can't give a bbq place more stars when their bbq isn't that good. Side note, the smoke wings in vtx Chipotle are great and the fried catfish is pretty good as well.
