| - I'm not going to bandwagon a 5 star here. The food is absolutely the best meat I've ever eaten. I had a great first experience, but my second trip was not so great. I know the warning is that they can run out, but when they 86 three to four items at the same time you're standing in the doorway after waiting for 45+ minutes; it becomes a little stressful when the two in front of you are 300+ pounds each. Sadly, they ran out of the two things I came for - the brisket and the sausage. I "settled" (I use the term VERY loosely because all of their food is just too GD good) for the pulled pork chopped brisket sandwich.
What I didn't appreciate is how the guy scraped the bottom of both tins for mine, but not the person in front of me (obviously) and the person behind me got two fresh tins (obviously). In addition, he shorted me on the chopped brisket because he (admittedly by going "whoa too much, oh well") overloaded the guy's sandwich in front of me, so there wasn't enough to do half and half on mine. I was annoyed, but whatever. I get to the side and order the beans. Again, the server started scraping the bottom, but came up short. I stopped her and asked when she would have more and she said she was out. I said nevermind, she got an attitude which was unexpected, and I got the potato salad instead. I get my food, get two steps away towards the register, and the cook brings out fresh beans for the person after me!!! I stopped and said "you said you were out?!" and the lady completely ignored me.
I had a bad experience. Not saying it isn't worth the trip, but be prepared to get screwed over if it is busy. This place has amazing food and, when it's not busy, great service. If you're from out of town, buy a jar of barbecue sauce and change your friends lives back home. Lol
