  • The menu is not good for a single person. I wish they had a meal package. I have to order the minimum of three ribs, which is ok. But a full order of everything else. Fries, beans, coleslaw. Good for a couple but not good for a single. Alas I do not come here frequently for this reason.

  • Brisket was fatty this time but always tasty. Hostess was so on point making sure the Cole slaw didn't have cream or yogurt (I have food sensitivities) I really appreciated her diligence
