Pure Country BBQ & Grill

Forgot to write this when went the other day..We stopped in, for the first time, after church on Sunday. There was initially no one there, but it started filling up by the time we left. Now, let’s talk about the food! Please excuse the pictures of half eaten food. We dove in and then I decided that I needed to make this review. We had the fried mushrooms for an appetizer. I ordered the Chuck Norris Chicken Sandwich and my husband got the fried catfish. It was all DELICIOUS!! Our server, Jackie, was great as well! We’ll definitely be back!

This restaurant has everything going for it but just can’t execute. The latest move away from a fast casual order format is a mistake and the plates and presentation need revisiting. For example, $8 gets you a side plate of fried okra and no dipping sauce of any kind. Brisket is okay; however, you need to catch it on the day of the week it was cooked.

Today we had a fantastic lunch. The brisket tacos with fried Okra. Ok so maybe the side was different but best okra and brisket hands down!. There fries were so good, my hubby had those with a jalapeño cheese bun full of brisket! This was the best BBQ and service was spot on!

My first visit, likely my only visit. Met a friend for a business lunch and we were excited to give Pure country a try. (Side note; my first visit was a few weeks ago, but by 4:30 pm, they were out of brisket, ribs and sausage. They were making there sandwiches) I ordered the brisket plate with a side of sausage. Service was quick but food was bland and unexciting. The brisket was very moist and tender, but essentially flavorless. No rub. No Smoke (or even a smoke ring). Bland dry sausage. The potato salad was good, as was the cream corn. Good but not Great or WOW! And while it is convenient, I don’t like the sliced bread in a bag or the pickles and onions. May be sanitary, but also feels institutionalized, which in my mind is not the ‘vibe’ you want. Even the potato salad seem

The cheeseburger was good, fries were too salty. The sausage looks like it was boiled. And the brisket was wait to fatty and greasy. Baked potatoe was delicious and the Texas twinkies were good too.
