| - I'd be lying if I said that Big T's appearance on You Gotta Eat Here wasn't the driving force behind our visit to the restaurant a few months ago. My fella also loves him some BBQ, so I surprised him one day by taking him here.
Our server was delightful, though the food was slow coming out. There was only us and one other family in the place, so we didn't anticipate waiting so long. Good things do come to those who wait! But by the time the food came out, we had polished off a pitcher, and were kind of beer-full. I know, I know, we're grown ups, I swear.
We started off with the fried pickles. My theory about fried pickles is that they all taste the same. They really do. No matter where you go, if they're serving fried pickles, they will take like the next place's fried pickles. I am waiting for someone to prove me wrong.
My fella had the ribs with slaw and hush puppies (aka dinner donuts), and I had a chicken burger. We were so stuffed by the end! The fella loved his ribs. My chicken burger was good too. I was especially pleased at all the sauce options. I do love a good sauce.
The thing is, the food was kind of expensive for what it was. No deep fried pickle is worth $11, folks.
This place is worth a try, and we'll probably go back one day. It wouldn't be the first place I would recommend, but I would not warn anyone away.
