I got the Chopped Sandwich and my wife for the Turkey Sandwich. They come with the option of chopped onions, pickles, and sauce on them. We both loaded up on all of those. The chopped sandwich came on a bun, and the turkey on toasted white bread. The bun was unremarkable, and the roast was...well, toast. Turkey was good and brisket was ok with a few dry pieces. Only one sauce option offered. Service was very good and prices very reasonable. Decent stop for a quick lunch.

Everything tasted off and lacked the flavor I expected from a barbecue restaurant. It was disappointing from start to finish. The atmosphere was fine, but that is about the only good thing I can say. The food came out tasting like it had been sitting for a while, and nothing had that fresh smoked flavor you look for in barbecue. It was a waste of money, and I would never come back here.

After a work trip, we decided to stop by Smolick's Smokehouse after hearing good things about their…read morebarbecue. First impression--the place is big, with plenty of seating. When you walk in, there's a clear line leading up to the register, with menus posted along the way and a large menu board up front, which makes ordering pretty easy. They offer a wide variety of options. The day we went, they had a chopped beef sandwich combo with a drink and a side for around $10, which felt like a solid deal. For my sides, I tried the mashed potatoes, potato salad, creamed corn, and okra. The okra was a standout--fresh, crispy, and really well done. The potato salad was also very good and worth getting. The creamed corn was something I hadn't had before--it included bacon and had a really unique flavor. It might not be for everyone, but I personally couldn't stop eating it, so I'd definitely recommend giving it a try. As for the chopped beef sandwich, it wasn't my favorite. It was a bit dry, even after adding extra barbecue sauce, and I didn't find it especially flavorful. That said, others in my group actually thought it leaned on the sweeter side, so your experience may vary. One thing that really stood out was the service. The staff was super friendly, patient, and happy to answer questions and help with recommendations. Overall, I'd say it's worth stopping by if you're in the area. If you're up for comparing, there's another barbecue spot a few miles down the road--Choke Canyon--that I've also enjoyed, especially for their sandwiches. Makes for a fun side-by-side if you're a BBQ fan.

They have three racks of shoes for sale here- from loafers, to sandals, to comfort shoes. I was impressed at their selection for a gas station.
