This is a fabulous all-around bbq restaurant that not only serves the ubiquitous Carolina pulled…read morepork, but brisket, chicken and ribs as well. The place is spotless, inside and out, and all the workers are super friendly and helpful. Order at the counter, take a number, grab your drinks, and sit. A waitress will bring your food and bus your dishes. We've tried a bunch of things, all so delicious. Chicken and pulled pork are so juicy and tender. The baby back ribs are slightly sticky, and fall off the bone with more meat than you usually see on them. The best, IMO, is the jalapeño cheddar sausage. Not very spicy (4 yo granddaughter loves it!) but a good strong jalapeño flavor with plenty of cheese. Lots of side dishes. The best is their baked mac & cheese. Their best sauce is the Carolina White. Their Carolina Mustard is good, but a wee bit on the sweet side. Today, I tried the Loaded Bbq Baker with pulled pork (see pic). I had read that it was large, but what was served to me was humongous. They literally took the biggest potato and added a 1/2 potato onto the end. It has butter, sour cream, cheese, real crispy bacon bits and green onions, topped with pulled pork and a side of BBQ sauce of your choice. I could barely eat half. It was delicious and everything I wanted and I got to take half home for dinner tonight. My grandson had (not pictured sorry) the mac & cheese bowl topped with pulled pork. I will definitely order that next time. I love their mac and it's more of a suitable portion. Lol I do wish we lived closer so we could eat here more often. It is definitely with the drive.

I am sharing our experience to bring awareness. Not only is this gross but it is also a health and safety concern.

The service is overly-friendly and rushed. The food is generally the same in every CB out there so if you've eaten at one, there should be no surprises at any others. I got the build-your-own breakfast with eggs, sausage and plain hash browns. It's a reasonable price for what you get and easy to cook properly. Service was fast, food arrived ~10 mins later. It wasn't too noisy and we could actually talk without yelling. (I was there with 4 other people.) We got the check quickly, even before some of us finished eating, so it was a quick turnaround on the table. We wandered around the store and by the time we left, the restaurant was already crowded and had a wait list.

Food came out great our waitress Leanne is awesome. Hope we get her again when we come next time.read more

We enjoy grabbing dinner on Fridays in specific, because they have a special on steak tips and catfish. They also have a drive thru if you don't want to dine in. You can call in advance or order at the window and wait 15-20 mins. Everything is cooked to order, and I've never had a bad meal here. The steak tips and home made potato chips they offer are probably the best things on the menu. I also enjoy the "Blondeez sub" which is a loaded down sub with ham, Turkey, cheese, and the works.
