  Ordered the three meat platter along with the pork belly, and unfortunately the food was pretty disappointing. I'm not sure how the smoked meats are being held after cooking, but everything on the platter was noticeably dry. The pork belly was the biggest disappointment. The pieces we received were extremely dark and overcooked to the point that they resembled charcoal and were excessively salty. We also tried ordering a couple of different beers from the menu and were told they were out of each one. The mac and cheese wasn't much better; it had the taste and consistency of something made with Velveeta rather than what I'd expect from a BBQ restaurant. The place itself has a cool atmosphere, but based on the food we were served, I can't recommend it. Hopefully this was just an off night, because the quality of the BBQ was well below what we expected.

  Starting with a simple things like the corn absolutely no flavor, not salt, not pepper not butter not a single thing. It was cold. It was trash. Second the brisket, what are we doing here guys? Let’s be real I felt like I was eating a sandal. The pulled pork OK, not terrible but again really Then we’re on the ribs like first off barely any meat on these things are they spareribs? I don’t know. They weren’t good and they were super dry as well. Now the grilled chicken, it was OK it was moist. It was fine. I’ll give them credit for that one, but it was cold. The only saving grace here was the baked beans. Those were the only thing that was really actually good but even with these, I felt like they added brisket to canned beans that you can buy at the store to be more specific like bush’s baked beans Overall, the barbecue sauce was terrible. The overall food was terrible. I would not recommend this. This is giving we’re the only barbecue spot in town so we’re just gonna serve trash and people will buy it. I cannot recommend enough to not go here.

  Food is always amazing. Wish we had one in New Orleans area. We always stop when in Hammond. Best soft serve drinks and the brisket quesadilla and Joes shrimp tacos are to die for.

  Always great bbq and food selections. Emma the bartender has one of the best personalities we've had in any restaurant in a very long time!

  Did not find the food was good. I never had a seafood pasta meal before that was more like a soup. Brisket no flavor.
