    We drove from OK to AL for the game. Boomer Sooner. This place came highly recommended and did not disappoint! If you find yourself in this neck of the woods, it’s a must!

    By far the best pork barbecue sandwich in all of Tuscaloosa! It's kinda like the Chick-fil-A of pork sandwich sandwiches...

    Hands down my favorite ribs. Some people say they are not so tender but I like a little “bite” on my ribs. Always stop here on my way to Tennessee from Texas.
