As a local at one time we ate here often. We decided to try it again after the remodel. It's a great remodel, but, the food is not the same. The portions are very small and the prices aren't. We spent $36 for a sandwich with onion rings and a pork plate. There may have been a quarter of a cup of BBQ on my sandwich. You tasted more bun than BBQ as you will see in the picks. Sorry, I won't be back.

These were by far the worst ribs I have ever eaten. The point of smoking meat is to break down the fat so the meat is tender. They had some crazy thick rub, which if I had to guess, would be to distract you from the chewy meat. The Brunswick stew tasted like chili with corn. The coleslaw was spicy and lacked real flavor. I was hoping it would be good as I am in the area every week. You couldn’t pay me to eat there again. The people were nice, but they know the deal. They only have to be nice this one time because you won’t be back.

We stopped for lunch while in Blue Ridge. We ordered the half rack of ribs and a brisket plate. The brisket was extremely dry and literally had no flavor at all. We threw all but one slice away. The ribs were okay but also not seasoned at all. The collard greens and macaroni salad were good but the Cole slaw tasted old and the macaroni and cheese was cold. The staff was friendly but I did have to wait a good while before anyone acknowledged me and took my order. We probably would not eat here again after spending $50 for such a mediocre meal.

What can I say about this place other it was amazing. I can safely say I've never had a more tender and tasteful half a slab of ribs. No need for toothpicks with this meat. I was able to pull out all 6 bones with next to no meat left on them. I topped my meal with corn on the cob and fried okra. My mom got two generous scoops of the BBQ chicken salad with collard greens and fried okra. My husband got pulled pork plate with corn on the cob and French fries. All that good for a little over $30. This is a small hole in the wall BBQ stand with every bit of southern charm. I highly recommend this place.
