This is a gas station, car wash, knick knack store and BBQ joint all rolled into one. They have been featured on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives and recently remodeled.
In the local area there is a lot of hype about this place so I decided to check it out since it had been a while (read a couple of years) that I had been to this place.
Let me start with the food. The brisket is top notch. The ribs are not bad. Other stuff, comme ci, comme ca!
My experience last evening was a mixed bag.
We arrived at 6 pm and they were already sold out of the ribs and sliced brisket. We ordered a pound and a half of the chopped brisket and we were not disappointed.
What we were very disappointed in was the service. It was like watching the grass grow. Not only was it slow (like molasses) but it was sort of un-engaging. Perhaps a sign of complacency as they are quite popular.
Additionally, to be out of sliced brisket, ribs and Mac n Cheese at 6 pm is akin to a grocery store running out of milk and eggs.
For the food, 4 Stars. For menu management ZERO stars. For service 2 Stars.
There you have it.
