| - This place seems to be a Valley staple, so I had to try it despite some poor reviews. My experience was pretty good. Ordered two sandwich combos at $9.89 each. Usually don't comment on beverages, but the rare presence of Big Red in the soda machine was one I took advantage of right off the bat. Moving on to the side dishes, the macaroni and cheese was just average, a bit gummy, but the potato salad had large chunks of potatoes and a nice relishy taste. Ok, now onto the main courses. The chopped chicken is just that - 95% white meat chopped onto a bun. So, in this case the BBQ sauce better be good or else it will be one dry sandwich and luckily this sauce was tasty, kind of a thicker red vinegar style, but still a good taste and it gets soaked up fast. The Brisket was another huge sandwich, almost needing a knife and fork as meat spills everywhere (a good thing). This was shredded or chopped style brisket and I even found a few burnt ends buried amongst the meat. Hardly any fat and once again and that sauce made an appearance and "completed" the brisket very nicely. Place was pretty empty at 6:30pm on a weekday, just the way I like it.
