    Stopped by today and grabbed their daily special — buy 2 chopped beef sandwiches, get the 3rd free — and honestly, the deal is unbelievable. Not only is it affordable, but they load these sandwiches up with a huge, generous portion of chopped beef. No skimping at all. Each sandwich came with its own wrapped jalapeño and pickles, plus their house BBQ sauce on the side. The beef was tender, smoky, and flavorful, and the toasted bun had the perfect crunch. The jalapeño gave it a great kick, and the pickles balanced everything out. For the price, the portion, and the quality, this spot seriously over-delivers. If you’re craving good BBQ without breaking the bank, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!

    Great BBQ and great service! The food is well seasoned, the brisket is juicy, and the ribs just fall off the bone. The sausage is made in-house and is delicious!! I had the potato salad and coleslaw for my sides. They were great as well, although I do prefer my potato salad to be prepared with eggs and a dash of celery salt.

    I spent $25.69 on Friday, December 12, 2025 for 2 Ribs, 3 Small Slices of Brisket, a Small Side of Potato Salad, a Small side of Beans, 2 slices of bread and a Coke. The brisket and ribs lacked any BBQ taste or smoke flavor. The brisket had no flavor and definitely needed the BBQ sauce that came in the condiment cup to remotely taste like BBQ. The ribs already had a slight coating of BBQ sauce to try and taste like BBQ. The portions on the side of Bean and Potato Salad were extremely small and amounted to about 3 spoons each. They were smaller than a standard ice-cream scoop in serving size. The portions were so small if you were dieting it would not be considered cheating almost like a Kids Meal. The 2 white cups in the photo are smaller than a 4 ounce cup that some restaurants give for condiments and in this case this is the potato salad and beans. I have never seen styrofoam containers this small. The BBQ sauce is in a standard clear condiment container. You can see how it compares to the sides cup which may have been 4 ounce side cups. Ironically several people came in and ordered FISH plates but no BBQ while I dined. The dining area is small so you can hear everything including what people ordered. On a positive note the lady taking orders at the counter was pleasant.
