“ Would highly recommend. Staff was awesome, food was delicious, and prices were very reasonable. Cook even brought out a sample of the meat with sauce to make sure I liked it before cooking my order. If you are wanting some BBQ food and don't want to pay an arm and a leg, this is your place! ”
“ Great food. Order 6 wings and the Piggy Back. GF ordered the Little Pig. Great saucy bbq sandwiches. Probably the best smoked wings I have ever ate. ”
“ Small business with excellent food! The pulled pork and brisket sandwiches were delicious and really reasonably priced. Well worth visiting. (For carry-out, they give you the bun separate from the fillings so it doesn't get soggy on your way home - great idea.) ”
“ Scott is the best dude man! We're here twice per year for hoops and whether it's "for here" or "to go" it's on point. BEST wings ever! ”
“ This place we just happened to come across while killing time waiting for our hotel reservations to come through and I'm so glad we did. The food was amazing. I had BBQ chicken wings and max and cheese and let me tell ya, I ate these wings with a plastic fork and easily got every bit of meat off of the bones. I'm not sure how long they were slow cooked but my God they were fantastic. The max and cheese was great too. I didn't have room to finish the food I had so I definitely couldn't eat anything else. The service was fast, the place was clean, the owner himself worked the kitchen alone and he was very friendly. Easily rate this place a 10/10 or 5 stars or however you wanna do it. Highly recommend this or you will be missing out on something spectacular. ”
