Customer Review Summary
Reviewers split sharply on the barbecue, with the sauces drawing the strongest praise. One calls them legendary, and another names it the best barbecue on Sand Mountain at an affordable price. Chicken tenders and the sweet tea come up close behind, and a few describe quick, tasty food and staff they call excellent. Several note it is drive-through only with picnic tables, and one wishes for a bigger dine-in building. The complaints are specific and substantial. One reviewer found the ribs gray, unsmoked and unsauced, the pulled pork dry, and the coleslaw unseasoned, with only thin vinegar sauce in to-go cups. Another says the pork superQ sandwich arrived with barely enough meat. A third rates the pork sandwiches below gas station versions and describes the brunswick stew as vegetable soup with very little meat. One reviewer was frustrated that a salad came without a bag. The harshest account ends with the family pack's rolls turning out to be store-brand hamburger buns and the meal going to the dogs.

“What can be said of some of the finest barbecue ever cooked? So delicious it's humbling AND THE SAUCES ARE LEGENDARY. You are a gift to Sand Mountain and North Alabama. THANK YOU!!”

“$50 HORRIBLE ‼️ First negative review I've ever done, but this was not only the worst BBQ I've ever had it was the worst food I've had in memory. I went on Saturday at 1pm and got a 1lb. pork family pack and a slab of ribs. They are to-go only so when we got home and opened everything up we were shocked. Ribs were not smoked and not sauced, gray, plain ribs that appeared to have been cooked in an oven. Coleslaw not seasoned, I mean none! Just cabbage, vinegar and maybe salt. The "8 pack of rolls" was literally a package of Walmart Great Value hamburger buns. 🤯 The pulled pork was extremely dry with no sauce, all sauces where in to go cups and very thin vinegar based. It was so bad that after a couple of bites we gave it to the dogs, got the kids and went to go get lunch at Buffalo Wild Wings.”
