| - Scratch another barbecue joint off my bookmarked list.
I had a late lunch here today, @1:30 p.m. I had the run of the joint.
I ordered the, Thursday only, senior portion of pulled pork, potato salad, white coleslaw, and sweet tea. Price was @$8.50.
Pulled Pork? I enjoyed it, and that's all that really matters. The sauce that they provided tasted like Kraft BBQ sauce with a little added vinegar, a combination of east meets west NC BBQ sauce. It complimented the pork perfectly. The meat was tender and juicy. There was no smoke taste, but as I said before, it was fine. The portion size was perfect.
Potato Salad? Good stuff. Nice chunky pieces of potatoes in a creamy dressing - I liked it.
White coleslaw? I didn't care for this, because it was primarily crunch and no taste. I wouldn't order this item again.
Hush Puppies? In a word, delicious. They were large, round, crunchy, and non greasy - some of the best hush puppies that I've ever eaten.
Sweet tea? Nice. Sweet. Good stuff.
Service? Exceptional. I was offered a to go cup of iced tea, with extra lemon, which pleases me.
Price? Cheaper than I expected.
Décor? This is a really nice, clean, restaurant with leather, wood, and tasteful pictures.
Notes?
The men's bathroom was very clean.
I was impressed that there was a drive-thru.
Summary: Good BBQ and sides. I would gladly come here again. I was a little disappointed that I didn't get an opportunity to try their trademark white BBQ sauce, but maybe that only comes with their BBQ chicken. I won't lose any sleep over it.
