I'm giving Fox Smokehouse BBQ four stars because after one visit and a taste of their food I can definitely say "Yay! I'm a fan."
For the following reasons:
1. The service was good. I don't care how great the food is at a place if the service is anything below courteous and easy, you've lost me-- most likely for good. Service matters so much in this day and age. My money is hard earned and I refuse to spend it at any place that has anything below good service. Having good service tells me you value me as a customer and that is of first importance. I walked in and the woman at the counter was courteous, respectful, and the food was served up fast. This makes me happy and means I'll be back.
2. I got the smallest meal pack they have (the one that serves 4) It has, a 1/2 rack of ribs, half pound of pork and half pound of chicken. I wanted some for my own lunch, some for my husband, and some for later. The sides I chose were the cole slaw and cowboy beans. I'm not into ribs -- my husband can give his opinion on those. But the chicken and pork: mouthwatering, tender and delicious. The beans and slaw are excellent. I usually don't like the beans at BBQ places but these are wonderful. Can totally tell they and the slaw are homemade. I chose the spicy sauce and it is also wonderful. Still need to try the mild sauce.
I'll definitely return to this place. My hope is they keep the service consistent. At times that seems harder to pull off than the food for some places. I also get what it means to be a husband and wife run business as I'm part of one of those myself. So glad to see another wonderful food choice here in BC.
