CONTEXT: I was driving down from PA to GA, down I-85, stopped here for a bite based on the yelp reviews. I agree with the rating, this place is very good indeed. I was here around 7 PM, the place was packed, but the table turnover was quick. Not much room to wait for a table inside, but that's OK, the weather was good, and the parking lot smells gooooood.
TASTE: 8/10. Chopped Pork Plate: Not the best BBQ I've ever had, but pretty good nonetheless. They have a vinegar/pepper hot sauce, and a thick sweet/spicy BBQ sauce. Apply both liberally. Chopped pork had a great texture and smell, went well with the sauces. Hot sauce could be hotter, the sweet BBQ sauce was perfect. Sides: Onion rings were great, hush puppies were good, beans need to be porkier, slaw was unique and very good.
SERVICE: Good, quick. I peeked at the menu while I waited, so I knew what I wanted by the time I sat down at a table. 5 mins tops between my order and a giant basket of food being set in front of me. Good work, considering the crowd. Lady at the counter, and my server were both friendly and nice.
PORTIONS: Very generous.
VERDICT: I would go out of my way to return here and/or prefer routes through NC that take I-85 just so I can stop by again.
