| - I got the combo plate, which included a little bit of everything. The ribs and links were edible, but the ham and turkey tasted like smoked lunch meat. The texture of the pulled pork was not bad, but it could have been more flavorful. The waitress recommended we get the sweet potato fries because they were oh-so delicious and we shouldn't come to Buckingham's without having them. OK, I was sold. The "sweet potato fries" they serve has got to be one of the nastiest things on earth: The texture was all wrong, almost like they cut and fried the sweet potato a week ago, let it sit around for a week, soak it in water to prevent it from drying out, then refried it when I ordered it. It was served with a "dipping sauce" (the little black container in the picture) which tasted like they took pancake syrup and cinnamon, and reduced it to the consistency of snot. Literally.
I do give them props for serving actual barbecue, and not being one of those places that boil their meat. But, I really don't think I would go back to Buckingham's. Unless I felt like having lunch meat and snot, which doesn't happen very often.
