| - I live relatively close to this place and for years drove right past it. I finally stopped in and I was glad I did. If the smell of the smokers doesn't clue you in, the food will clear up any mystery.
I will say the place is more of a saloon feel than a restaurant, which I like. The lunch crowd varies quite a bit, but the place is a biker bar, so you will see some guys in their leathers hanging out... which again, is cool, don't let them get in your way of some good food.
On to the food, I keep hearing rave reviews about Mac's on this site and when Mac's opened I'd say they were the best, but the quality there has dropped as their business has picked up. McKoy's has some of the best bbq I've had, great smokey flavor, good portions and good sauces to throw on top. They continue to smoke their bbq in a manner that maintains that great subtle smokey flavor, where in my opinion Mac's has lost that smokiness that once made it so good.
I also branched out and tried their hot wings- as I'm a huge wing fan. McKoy's served up some really good wings. Again, great flavor, a little extra seasoning than most bar wings and they were cooked perfectly, not rubbery but not charcoal either.
If you're looking for good bbq and a place with a good set of other options, give McKoy's a shot... they'll make you forget all about that speedshop up the street.
