The Original Ronnie's BBQ

We had never been here but as we were biking by on the Capital Trail we saw a LOOONGGGG line of cars waiting in the parking lot and our nose told us there was something incredible going on over there... On the way back we stopped and ordered the sampler box which was delivered in just a few minutes. Meanwhile we had the treat of sitting at the picnic table and chatting with Ronnie, the genius behind this place. Everything was over-the-top too-good-to-be-true! The ribs! Oh, my word! The chicken - makes my mouth water all over again just thinking about it! The BBQ itself? To die for! And then there's the brisket.. Ah, that was pure joy. Don't mess with any other place! Head for Ronnie's!

The lady who came out and took the order and brought the food was nice. We have been looking for some place that serves great Carolina style Bar-B-Que and this wasn't it. It didn't really have any flavor. So I guess we will keep looking. It was kind of expensive for what we got. No buns were included with the 1lb. Bar- B- Que and 1lb. Cole slaw. We also got a sampler platter and the brisket and ribs were mostly fat. Parking: You had to go in 1 way and not with the light. Pull up and give order and wait in vehicle for food to be brought out. There's another Lane for orders called in ahead. You can't go in at all!

I did not go this particular day, but worthy of a five star review from a previous visit. Lines are always long, but it was worth the wait the day my family and I visited. Our food was great and their service was good also. Had bar-b-q sandwiches, Mac and cheese, collards, and yams between the four of us. Worth the money truly, nice good people, good drinks too. They made in house lemonades, which you should never go wrong with. No pictures anymore, but I would return.
