A++++.
Was scared there was going to be a lot of fat in the meat but there was NOT! I ordered the pulled pork. There was not a smoked flavor to the meat but that was a good thing to me. They have really good mac & cheese. The bbq beans I ordered was ok but they were not soft enough (needed to be cooked longer). But they had meat in the bbq beans which was good! I also tried the Texas sausage link which is DELICIOUS! (Best thing on the menu). Their wings are delicious as well. Best place in town to get BBQ! AMAZING FOOD!!!
This place has way to many Mears to pick. So it’s like you gave to go for a while month to have each meat. So that’s how I feel about Meat!!
Service was great, very attentive. Boss Logg split between two was perfect. Smoked meat stood up to the hype. Pickle fries had too much salty corn meal. But regular potato fries were great!
You can tell they put a lot of care and skill into their food, which is excellent. They’ve expanded a bit and added a bar, so service should be better than it was.
Food was great but barely offset the rest of the dining experience. Sliced brisket was fantastic. Loved the BBQ beans, had a good kick to them. Two hour wait at 5pm but when they hung a Sold Out sign on the door at 7:30pm I understood why. Get a table away from the door because the idiots going in and out don’t shut it (no auto closer) and it was freezing inside. Took about 40 minutes to get our food after ordering. Great food and concept but need a bigger faculty and this is supposedly bigger after Feb. 11th. Get there early and give it a try.
Poor Management. I agree with a prior reviewer. We went, the food was good, the servers were doing their best, they were overworked, but this place is so poorly run.The service, was essentially, very bad, but I don’t blame any of the employees, they were working their butts off in a constant state of motion. I blame the management. They need to hire more people, specifically a host or hostess, and bussers. The waitstaff try to do all three and service suffers. I watched a table sit, unbussed, for 20 minutes while people were waiting to be seated. That is plain unacceptable. Its a small place, hire one person, even if you paid them $15 an hour you’d make more money because you’d get people in and out faster. Then there is the kitchen, they frequently run out of food, and did the night we were there. I understand running out of slow smoked ribs, but later people were coming by asking about just having a beer or something and they were able to sit and drink, but why not offer them a burger? The guy (owner?) told them he had no food for them, but ground beef was on the menu so… did you run out of hamburger meat? I guess perhaps he went to the Eric Cartman school of business, tell everyone they can’t have something and they’ll want it. And maybe he doesn’t care that his front of the house is so inefficiently run, he runs out of food anyways, who cares if he doesn’t get tables turned around quickly? I don’t know how much his rent is I guess, but maybe he is happy as is. He’d probably make a ton more money with some management changes though. The food? The food was good. The ribs (spare ribs) were large and meaty, although maybe above average connective tissue and cartilage. The meat fries, a side, were a meal themselves and very good. If I went back I might just get them. Even the fries portion of the platter (essentially a poutine) were really good, perfectly seasoned, crispy, just all around good. Highly recommended. Lots of different bbq sauces to try, liked most of them, two especially so. Also, the front door was broken, left constantly flapping in the wind, I had to close it alot, a $10 door closer from Home Depot would fix that. I highly recommend the owner enrolling in MSU’s hospitality management major, his restaurant could be very successful, the concept is good, the food is good, its just… so poorly executed. I might go back… but I’m not sure its worth the hassle.
