| - Located inside Cactus Jack's saloon near the intersection of St. Rose Pkwy and Maryland Pkwy.
My rating is probably more of a 3.5. I stopped in around noon on a Thursday. The bar was fairly empty. Was greeted by the bartender and given a menu. She explained a few of the options, and got me my Iced Tea.
Menu has lots of choices, I went with the two meat meal, sliced brisket and ribs with a side of smoked pork belly baked beans. Unfortunately the beans weren't ready, so they subbed in some mashed potatoes. A container full of napkins, to go plastic sauce cups, plastic silverware, and their 3 sauces was dropped off and I was ready to chow down.
They are famous for their God sauce, which is pretty tasty, a little sweet and smoky. When my food came out, the brisket, the ribs, and even the potatoes had God sauce on them. I think this is why I rated them lower than some, by the time I finished the taste of God sauce permeated my taste buds.
The sliced brisket was nice and tender. The bottom part still had a huge portion of fat on it....I think you should trim this before serving. The ribs were really good with that smoked flavor and moist as well. Both were pretty tasty on their own.
I'm pretty sure I'll be back. Henderson is getting a lot of BBQ places now with Jessie Rae's, Big B's, Tucky's, and Bell's. That is making it really hard to not eat BBQ every single day!!!
