    Really need to work on their BBQ Game. This place is pretty much over-rated. I give it 2.5 stars. I’m a huge fan of pulled pork sandwiches and have tried my fair share but this is not one of the places to get a really good one. Sure they give you a lot of meat but the quality, tastiness, and moistness is just average. I’m pretty sure one of the the reasons why the meat is dry is because they chop up the pork too finely, instead of it being pulled or slightly chopped. And this place is real stingy with their BBQ sauce. You have to ask for it on your sandwich (or meal) and then they pour just a little bit on your sandwich. Then there are no dispensers or bottles to put more BBQ sauce on if you want to. But besides that the sauce isn’t that good at all anyways. The sauce has this sour-odd taste to it that just doesn’t taste right…or that good. And the hotter BBQ sauce wasn’t hot at all and also lacked taste.As for the sides, the macaroni salad looked and tasted exactly as if you were to buy the store brand kind at Publix / Sweet Bay / Wal-Mart / etc. Cole slaw was plain & average. Not sweet whatsoever and even salt didn’t help kick up the flavor.Price wasn’t cheap either. And there is no lunch specials there at all which is surprising.The new layout and remodel is nice but doesn’t make up for the average food and high prices.
