We’re just a tiny little YELLOW building (used to be red), filled with love and smoke! I, Mrs. D, am the wife of a truck driver… Mr. D. He convinced me that truckers need some real food on the road and promised if I smoked it, they would come 🙂 he taught me everything I know, he is the reason we exist. My life’s work is to make someone’s life better, to offer up a little taste from home. See you soon, Mrs. D❤

This place has been a staple for me since 2016 when they opened. Their back story is very cool, and the food is amazing!! Don’t let the little shack fool you, you couldn’t imagine whats in there.

Let me just start by saying that I love the idea vehind this place! That being said, I must also say that the meats weren’t that bad either. The only downside was that the brisket was chopped and very greasy on my sandwich. The meat combo was delicious!

I bought the 4 meat plate so that I could sample a little bit of everything. I ended up with a lot of everything. This is some of the best smoked sausage ever. The ribs were good and falling off of the bone. The chicken was smoked to perfection. The brisket was ok, not the best but still good. Overall, 8/10 I would definitely go back, but I wouldn’t order the sides next time, just the meat. Thanks for a great lunch and dinner.

I was stopping for fuel and a bite to eat at the loves travel center across the street. From the moment I opened my truck door I smelt that delicious Texas barbecue in the air. So after getting my fuel I followed my nose to a tiny little unassuming barbecue shack across the street. Ordered myself a Tumi combo plate with brisket and Boudin. I ended up only paying $17 and had potato salad bread barbecue sauce and baked beans that came with the dish and let me tell you that is some darn darn good barbecue right there. I highly suggest the next time you’re in the area stop by and get this place a shot your nose will lead you right to it. I’m incredibly sorry I didn’t catch your name to whoever was serving me but thank you for such an amazing meal

This place has become a have to stop for me. With all the prices going nuts anymore, this is a hell of a value. I got a 3 meat platter and a large gumbo for $29. The Gumbo is amazing and is a regular item for me. Sometimes, get two so I can have leftovers tomorrow. Mrs. D is always very polite and welcoming. Amazing little hole in the wall. Highly recommend.

Trucker Life! Pulled in to Love’s for my 10 hour reset and I saw this shed right across the street. A front yard BBQ joint!! Decided to try it out and did not disappoint. It’s good to see something different than the usual same food choices you find in the truck stop. I am a BBQ fan, who isn’t? I visited late noon so they were out of BBQ chicken. That’s alright – pulled pork, briskets, ribs, sausage will do just as tasty For $20 you will have leftovers for the next meal. I just bought a BBQ sauce for my truck pantry just in case I will come across a place like this, and today I get to try my sauce. Good dinner and a belly too full.

Got the 2 meat plate!!! Ribs were big juicy meaty bones, brisket was great portion, and AMAZING smoke bomb of flavor, both super juicy and yummmm! Potato salad was good. The beans…I need a bucket of the beans! Same goes with the BBQ sauce. Also got the gumbo, flavor was super delish, only thing was that it was much too salty for my tatse

Outstanding! Any time I stop at the Love’s across the street I will be getting a plate. Prepared quickly, good on price. My plate was heavy and couldn’t even finish it all. honestly I don’t think I’ve had better, and it’s always great supporting a small business.

I consider myself a BBQ lover and I’ve eaten a fair share in my travels from sauced up to dry rub and all in between. I’m going to attempt to rate this BBQ shack as fairly as possible. They don’t over sauce the meat , service was prompt and friendly.
