Love the food. We ordered to-go Sliced Beef Sandwich, 2 Meat Plate (Pork Ribs, Smoked Sausage, Potato Salad, Cole Slaw), and Pulled Pork Sandwich Plate (Mac & Cheese and Baked Beans). The meats were tender and tasted great. I prefer their sausage flavor over other places that have spicy sausage. Loved the side dishes and their BBQ sauce. The guy who gave me the food was super nice.

We came in while on vacation from Missouri. The staff was very nice and helpful! My son has a food allergy to Mustard and they helped make sure he could eat what he wanted. The food was good and big portions. We had never had smoked Bologna and we all loved it! Will definitely be back again if we come back to the area! Maybe even before we leave! 😀

This was my very first time visiting this restaurant and I can tell you that the food was not disappointing! I ordered a 2 meat plate, which came with slices of smoked sausages and ribs. You'll see from the photos that the dishes, on the whole, were pretty tasty. The ribs were incredibly soft, indicating that the cooks at this restaurant know how to cook ribs! I'm fairly certain they cooked those ribs to death, because they were falling off the bone, and the bones were tasty, too! LOL... The turnip greens were a bit "interesting," though. That's the best way I can describe them. I feel like they had a bit of a "smoky" taste to them, which was something I did not expect to taste whilst eating turnip greens. I'm not sure how they accomplished that... It's not that they were nasty, but they just had that smokey taste, which resulted in the turnip greens having a bit of an aftertaste. Nevertheless, I still ate them all! I also had a piece of jalapeno cornbread, that had a bit of a kick to it because of the jalapeno peppers, yet it was sweet at the same time. Another interesting choice! :-) The corn was basic whole kernel corn, and there's nothing special to write about it. I also want to say that when we arrived there, to get our food to go, they were closing up. But I appreciate the fact that they did not lock their doors early nor did they rush us out of the restaurant. We had adequate time to order our food and they even allowed me to sample a couple of things before making a decision. Furthermore, the entirety of the staff were fabulous! Everyone working at that place, near closing time, was all smiles and giggles, and they cracked jokes and they were fun to be around! It's definitely a place you should visit sometime in the near future. I'm confident that you will not be disappointed.

If you’re in Grapevine, attending a conference at Gaylord Hotel or anywhere within 20 minutes of this area and want to taste the best BBQ you can find, look no further! Friendly staff who can give u a quick history of the place and sampled out for us the jalapeño cheddar sausage that made me upgrade from 2 meat to 3 meat plate. Brisket that melts in your mouth and St. Louis short ribs with their signature sauce will have you drooling. Amazing sides as well. I could say more but I’ll let the food do the talking.

In past, it was great. But, they put bacon on when my son and I specified none...he eats Kosher and then week ago I ordered Tuesday special...barbecue sandwich with stuffed baked potatoe and got pictured in first pic...called and, already in pjs, drove back...given another potato, 2nd pic. I spoke to Jacob then and then Shane, owner, next day ...when I called to order next day, Jacob was very rude and defensive. I didn't go back. Sad because it used to be great experience.

I wasn't impressed but I wasn't disappointed either. BBQ was decent and the portions were fair and it was reasonably priced. I'd eat there again. Update - raised my rating from 3 to 4 stars. Been back and had some me tender brisket than my first trip and the service has been good and very friendly each time I've been. BBQ is still just average or sightly above average but it's good portions at a good price and get service.
