First time going based on a recommendation for their cracklins. We arrived at 4pm the indoor area was closed with only drive-thru operating. I was looking forward to trying their cracklins but was quickly disappointed because they were cold and the flavors was just ok.Location: off the road. Can find by gps. Private parking with limited spots.Service: they were okay. They had a sign on their drive-thru window thar gave prices for 1/4 lb, 1/3 lb, 1/2 lb and 1 lb cracklins but when we ordered 1/3 lbs the girl at the window looked completely confused and we ended up getting less than 1/4 lb.Price: we only tried the cracklins and they are definitely overpriced. $25/lb where other places are $21-...

Nastiest bbq I have EVER tasted. She said I would get 3 ribs, and they gave me 2 1/2. Cold old ribs. I should have asked for my money back when the lady said they were making them hot. Smh.... And I've never seen potato salad like that. Look at how its standing up and the color. Gross. Beans straight out the can. Save your money. Go somewhere else. They should go to Texas and try Pappas or Triple Js in Houston, and learn how bbq should taste and look. I'm so disappointed.
