    We ordered for delivery for a gathering and bought a bunch of different dishes including baby back ribs, fried catfish, brisket, Alabama friend chicken and a bunch of sides (cabbage, rice and beans, fried green tomatoes and mac and cheese). The food quality was amazing, this remains our "go-to" BBQ place. The food was tepid when it arrived, but a quick warm on a couple of trays in the oven was all it took. Everyone enjoyed everything, but the brisket got the most kudos. If only they had beer battered onion rings on the menu ;-). Highly recommend this place, we order all the time and everything on the menu has been awesome so far.

    Just wow! I’m certain angels were singing as my tastebuds reveled in the delectable flavors of my Southern Grandma’s delicious cooking of my childhood. Granted, Christmas music was playing (yes, angels were actually harking perfectly on time). The staff is so friendly and helpful. Too many good things, definitely going back for more!
