As a BBQ hunter in every area I travel, I don't say lightly that this is one of the better (if not best) places I've been over the past 30yrs. Been to Texas, NC, TN, GA, SC, VA, ST. Louis, and New Orleans, and parts in between for BBQ. The pulled pork was moist and had the perfect crusty char and medium smoke. They blend the mix just right with chunk, shred, outside and inside meat. Brisket was very tasty, but a touch dry. However dry, it was extremely tender and took sauce very well, which nullified the naked dryness it started with. The beef flavor and smokiness came through the sauce with perfect balance. I tried their signature sides according to staff recommendations: jalapeño mac & cheese, and baked beans, plus I always get cole slaw because it varies so much from place to place. I am usually not impressed by mac because I make mine like Lady & Sons in Savannah (I worked there for a few years in the early 2000s) and it is pretty down-home perfect. BUT, this one was delicious in it's own right. Just enough minced jalapeño to give it a little smoky zip without the need to cool off after multiple bites. Elbow pasta was cooked al dente with an off-white creamy cheese blend that had a just sharp-of center cheesiness. No stringiness, but that is a chef's choice IMHO. I like mac either way. Beans were ah-MAZE-ing! They had a touch of actual cinnamon apples blended in, along with a heavier molasses presence. Not meaty, didn't matter. I was impressed by the result of the variation that I haven't seen before. Nicely done. Cole slaw was shredded then minced, Perfect texture. I prefer mine a little more on the creamy side, but the flavor was complex and I didn't mind that it was not very saucy. It contrasted the beans and mac in that way pretty well. It had a touch of celery seed and sweetness without pickle, and no spice or pepperiness. It was vsry good, but would have been A+ if a little bit creamier. Regarding the atmosphere, it is a small place (of course) with a great porch to sit on and plenty of booths and tables inside. You order at the counter and pick a seat after getting your choice of 4 sauces, pickle & onion condiment bar, plasticware and self-serve drinks. It is a non-descript grey painted wooden interior that is very back-porch BBQ shed feeling. They have various hot sauces to use, but the standard 4 BBQ sauces they offer were perfect. They have Carolina Gold, Texas Red (hickory smoke with a touch of spice), Georgia Sweet (similar to NC vinegar based with celery seed and sweetness, but it was red as well), and a Spicy Sauce which was just below jalapeño hot sauce heat. I liked the Texas best because of the balance. Staff was friendly and helpful. When anywhere nearby, GO CHECK THIS PLACE OUT!
