If you want some good barbecue, this is the place. They also have great burgers. My favorite is the Tex-Mex burgers. Don't forget to buy you a bottle of barbecue sauce. You will love it on your fried chicken, and everything else. Here are a few pictures from yesterday. Here are additional pictures from another visit.

I LOVE IT HERE! Julius, was our waiter for a party of 11, he was super attentive and kind. He has great manners, and checked up on us regularly to make sure we didn't need anything. The ribs are delicious!! He is also very observant and knows how to take care of his tables. Definitely tipping him generously :) PLEASE COME HERE!!

Netty, our server was amazing. She's great and deserves all the praise. However, some of the food was disappointing. My table had the buffalo wings for appetizer, the Pit Platter(ribs, chicken, pulled beef), and pulled pork sandwich. Buffalo Wings. Fried hard and very tasty. 5*/5* Pulled Pork and Pulled Beef. Both were tender, moist, delicious. 5*/5* Ribs and chicken, both 1*/5*. Both were very dry, even with the sauce(great BTW.) It was very hard to chew, it was more like jerky rather than BBQ. I don't know what it was about today, but it just wasn't it. The staff was great though.
