| - I've been here several times, but as someone else mentioned, they have a Groupon deal/s which are pretty awesome, so we ordered take out on a Friday night. There were a few tables filled and another person getting take out, so I waited in the line as the delicious smoke filled my lungs. If you don't like smoked meats, you won't like their bbq. It's super smokey!
I ordered a half rack with fries and a 2 meats, 2 sides with ribs, pulled pork, yams and onion rings. The meats are awesome - fall off the bone delicious with some great flavor. I always order them naked, so I can try the three sauces. To me, the spicy is too spicy, the sweet a bit too sweet, but I love the tangy which is mustard based and perfect. My husband prefers the sweet. I'd never had the yams or the onion rings and I have to say that the onion rings are hands down the best onion rings I have ever had. Super crunchy and crispy with a nice piece of onion that isn't stringy. The fries are always awesome and the yams taste just sweet enough without being overpowering.
I also ordered the bread pudding, which was a mistake and which is why they don't get 5 stars. It tasted like white bread was dipped in pork smoke grease and then put into the bread pudding mold and slathered in honey and bourbon. I am not sure what they were intending, but they really should just not serve desserts rather than serve this.
Thankfully, even the awful bread pudding did not dissuade me from saying that this is one of my favorite bbq joints in town.
