    They have 4 sauces for your BBQ. I think the smokey sweet is the only one worth trying. The Carolina is pretty much vinegar.

    Georgia Caviar side dish: cool, crisp, tart, black-eyed pea and veggie salad was such a good contrast to the smoky pulled pork!

    The name says it all. Craft beer and tacos are the best in the area...sorry Axcan.

    Went with my mind set on some good bbq but when i sae the prices on the menu, i walked right back out. No dinner specials with sides. Everything is sold separately. Terrible marketing strategy.

    The smoked 1/2 chicken is amazing, and so is the slaw.

    Bad service. Waited for 30 mins. To just order drinks. Had to ask someone just to order stuff.
