The meat (pulled pork and beef brisket) tasted much better than Old Carolina, and I enjoyed the large portions and sides (nicely baked sweet potato). Much like Old Carolina, my husband and I were able to split a 2 meat platter. We also loved our beers on draft (hefeweizen and imperial pumpkin ale from fat heads). The service was fine, although my 2 major complaints are the lack of a really hot BBQ sauce and I miss the Brunswick stew that Old Carolina had. The alcohol was a bit pricey, but I'm trying not to be too picky :)
