    I haven't been to this location, but I been to the South Tampa location, and they have some good Barbecue. Plus you can't go wrong with their homemade potato chips.

    This hidden gem has some of the best BBQ in the area. Get a sampler platter so you can try a few things and be sure to get an order of corn fritters. They are incredible!

    Yes to everything on the menu! If delicious caramelized meat porn drenched in magical unicorn tears sounds like a good time, order the burnt ends.

    Hungry? Ask for a "Big John" sandwich. Double meat: brisket and pork, chopped together and put onto a kaiser roll. It's not on the menu.

    If you're on the fence about whether to get chopped pork or brisket, go for the pork. Both are good, but pork is better.
