You aren't coming here for atmosphere (which isn't bad), you are coming here for the BBQ and THAT IS SENSATIONAL. Also doesn't hurt that there is a brewery in the attached building. Beer was also solid. I had the Two Meat combo with Mac-n-cheese and collards. Solid. My buddy had the Super Spud that looked like a heart attack on a potato. It was outstanding. Highly recommended.

If you are by Bear's smokehouse this is a MUST STOP. BEST BBQ I have ever had and I've been to Texas. The brisket is out of this world! The ribs are down right a NC treasure! Baked beans will provide a party for your taste buds!! I Will stop again. Blown away by the food, the service, atmosphere. In fact I wish a 10 star rating was available. Great outdoor space as well. Absolutely wonderful!

Passing through and read the reviews, we had to give it a try. Glad we did! The only negative thing I can say it that it was a little hard to find, but so glad we found it! The brisket was excellent. It was tender and moist with a nice smoke ring. The beans could be a meal by themselves, they had lots of meat in them. The pork was also very good. The service was very helpful in helping us make our choices. Definitely will return again if in the area!
