“ Smashed the chopped beef sandwich. Insane how it tasted better after every bite. The corn melted in my mouth. That ain’t never happened before. The peach cobbler slapped the hell out of my Grandma! Only thing that would elevate this place is some homemade sweet tea. Other than that, 10/10, recommend! ”

“ Just got the brisket, sausage, boudin with side of beans, potato salad and a little cake slice for dessert. Super friendly cashier and the the proprietor himself was back on the line cutting and portioning the meats. Everything is so tender and seasoned and smoked perfectly. Meal came with white bread and some pickles and onions. A great value for the price and I will definitely be back to try some more of the menu. A great spot that everyone should go to. ”
