| - I was wary when I saw the standard chain-restaurant interior, but - man - this food was delicious. I grew up in Georgia, so I have a near-constant craving for corn bread and smoked pork products, and this place hit the spot. I had the rib tips (literally, the fatty tips of the ribs that are cut off from the rib slabs), which the server recommended: they were juicy and, importantly, the dry rub was *very* flavorful. (flavorful bbq meat is hard to find; usually, it's all smoked out and dry, and I have to douse it in bbq sauce to make it edible)
The sides weren't large, but they, too, were flavorful and distinctive. I had the mac 'n cheese with jalepenos, and baked beans - all of the food is pleasantly spicy.
For serving great BBQ in CLE, this place gets 5 stars. I'll be going back.
