This is a hidden gem for traditional BBQ lovers. They’ve been open only a year and have a good menu. I have had the burnt ends and the turkey, both were great! My adult daughter had the pulled pork and loved it. They have a lot of room, despite the small amount of tables in the dining room. They do catering as well. If you haven’t been in, come support a locally owned and run business that has good food! The fire roasted corn with jalapeños was great, not overly spicy!!

Love this road side stop restaurant, the moment you walk in you listen to great time memories, then it’s the view of the road signs, like in the highway, but it’s their menu… then when you finally try the brisket, it just melts in your mouth, and the smoke house ribs and not like the ones you steam and they slip of the bone, no sir, these smoked one have a hickory scent and you bite into them and get a clean teeth mark on them, I had to try every sauce and my 2 favorite are their famous sweet & smokey and their watermelon sauce. But must not think they don’t have sides, my personal favorite were the mash potatoes and corn. Now they also have a great strawberry short cake that they make uniquely, but if you call ahead and request they have some fresh cookies, well…. you are in for a delicious treat. The gentleman at register is the Chef and he’s very nice, a plus that he know a lot about the southern BBQ. I look forward to my next visit to try the apple blossom tart.

First, quality people who greet and prepare order. I watched my order prepared. This place is quick serve bbq. The pulled chicken and rib tips were served out of a warmer pre prepped pan. Not off a grill. There is no grill or smoker to be seen in the front. 1cup sauce given per order. Pickles in a cup. The meal served it’s purpose which was I didn’t want to cook and needed something quick. I would compare it to a hot and ready meal from a grocery store.

Great bbq. Hidden off the road but worth the time to find. I had the burnt ends and they were tender, smoky, juicy. We tried a few of their sauces. Friendly service.

This has quickly become our go to place for meals when spending time playing board games at the opposite end of the mall. Came here on a whim and the entire group was instantly hooked. Every item we’ve tried is REALLY delicious making it almost hard to decide what to get each time we go.

Super delicious bbq and sides at the new bbq spot near Trader Joe’s at corner of park and 38 in Glen Ellyn. Definitely worth checking out! Andouille was outstanding, beautiful crisp skin and spicy inside. Brisket was soft and delicious. Solid ribs and burnt ends. Loved the Carolina vinegar sauce and smokehouse as well. But the SIDES are where it’s at, spectacular coleslaw and fantastic mashed potatoes. Highly recommend this place if you are looking for some great bbq or just an easy meal!

The BBQ is incredible! I ordered the brisket and smoked andouille sausage and I can’t say enough good things about both. Also, the sauces are really incredible. I had a rum mustard sauce that was really good, but my favorite was a mango bourbon houtsauce that was outstanding.

This is hands-down the best BBQ in the area! Always exception service and high quality delights! I won’t go anywhere else. When you’re offered so many great choices, it just makes sense. Thank you guys for opening up! Keep up the great work!
