| - After reading the numerous great reviews for this little hole in the wall, we decided to venture off the beaten path to indulge ourselves into some delicious food. The descriptions of the menu themselves from other people made my mouth drool as I pictured incredible tastes and an amazing time strapping on the ole feedbag. Needless to say my faith in Yelp user reviews and high ranked restaurants went out the door faster than I wanted to be after tasting this BBQ disaster.
We both decided on two meat dinner meals, then came with an choice of 2 meats, roll, and two sides. The price listed was $15 a piece for this dinner, so I was expecting a heaping of home style goodness. The moment I saw a Styrofoam plate with dividers in it for my food I was worried but hoped for a good serving still. Getting brisket, rib tips, corn and baked beans, I was ready to roll. The Mrs. got pulled pork and brisket also, along with mac and cheese and corn. Add a couple drinks and a banana pudding that lots of folks seemed to love we were ready to eat.
Meats-
Brisket was dry as could be, with no help from the lack luster sauces that could be found on the table. Not to mention it was barely warmed, which some of the food seemed to suffer from. My "rib tips" were 3 little pieces of meat that set next to each other were roughly half the size of my palm. Also not warmed and dry as a bone. Pulled pork was the only winner in the group, and I use the term winner loosely because it was only thing anyone could manage to eat without making too many faces.
Side-
Corn was a half cob of frozen corn. You could tell the taste. Some spices on it to try to help but mushy texture when you bit into it. I feel sorry if you buy it as a side for $3. Baked beans were not traditional style baked beans, more like a chili taste according to others. Not worth it at all. Mac and cheese was dry as well, with little taste or cheese and a sense of almost being reheated from a prior day batch.
Drinks-
Place has cans of soda for a $1 or unlimited refills for sweet tea, regular tea, or Hawaiian Punch. Punch was enjoyed, but sweet tea(huge tea drinker personally) has to rank as one of the worst tasting sweet teas I have ever had.
Desert-
Banana pudding was more vanilla wafer than pudding. Left your mouth dry and having to drink something to finish it.
Total cost:$40
I never do reviews. I have an okay experience or even underwhelming one I tend to chalk it up to a life experience to make better choices next time. The fact this place has so many good reviews and the overall quality of the food along with price that I experienced is what forced me to inform people about my ordeal. if you read closer there are a few reviews like mine questioning the good reviews. The guys working were super nice and the atmosphere was fine at the time, and we really were hoping to find our next hole in the wall treasure. This is fools gold disguised as treasure, so just keep it buried.
