    We finally made an effort to come to The Shed's original location on our drive to the Pass. On a…read morehot summer afternoon, we were relieved for big fans and cold water, and hopefully tasty food. My smoked chicken sandwich was good and full of meat. To the point I needed a fork and knife to finish eating it. My side of collard greens were good but missing the smoked turkey flavor. My husband got a sandwich and 2 sides combo and had significantly less meat than I did in his sandwich. Not sure if that's because I ordered just a sandwich and 1 side vs a combo. The food came out fast enough and I believe the value of food received for the amount paid was good, but I was expecting more flavor. Overall, I don't think we'll be rushing back given the proximity to the start/ end of our drive.

    The time has come, unfortunately, to update my review. My previous was from 2011 though I have been…read moregoing to The Shed off and on since 2008. As my last review said, I really use to love it. Food was good, full of flavor. Didn't matter if it was brisket or babyback ribs. But somewhere along the way, the prices got higher and higher, but the quality got less and less. Brisket getting tougher. Ribs being gritty from seasoning not cooked in. Use to, except for a few options, BBQ sauce was an add on. Now everything is covered in it. I think i can't give 1 star because part of me enjoys the sweet BBQ nostalgia of this spot. Bit despite living a short distance from this location, I can't justify a $40 rack of babyback ribs that won't hold up to The Shed of old. I hope they find their passion and focus again, the coast needs good BBQ! But sadly I feel it's holding on to a legacy and TV popularity instead of keeping the course that got them started.

I was finally able to make a point of making a special trip over there on a Saturday late afternoon. Unfortunately it still wasn't the best timing for a first trip or making a review as we were limited to what we could order based on the fact that their hours state they close at 5 but they shut the kitchen down at 4:30 and we got there just after 4. It's hard going out for dinner to a place that closes at 4:30. I ordered a sausage sandwich which to my delight was not the monotonous Conecuh. It was really good and reminiscent of some of the whole in the wall places in Texas that does good sausage. The only draw back was that being near closing time they didn't have links but was able to do slices. It was good but hard to eat. My hubs got chicken and ribs. I liked the ribs... they still had some bite, tender but not falling apart, and the smoke is mild, not overkill like so many other places do. Hubs wasn't a huge fan of but I thought they were nice. The chicken was on the dry side, but I never go to a bbq joint to order chicken so it's not a deal breaker for me. The only major downer was that all of our sides seemed to be standard pre-made and ordered items, not made in-house. I also liked the hole in the wall vibe, the friendly staff, and the divine smoke aroma that lets you know you're in the right bbq joint. All in all I enjoyed their Q and will need to go back when I can get the timing right to sample their steam table offerings.

I left expecting memorable barbecue. I left wondering what all the hype was about. The restaurant has a true down-home, hole-in-the-wall country smokehouse feel. The building looks like a converted home, and the patriotic, pro-America décor fits the barbecue theme well. Unfortunately, our experience got off to a slow start. We walked in and weren't greeted, which made for an awkward first impression. I ordered the DDD Burger, the restaurant's featured burger made with a half-pound brisket and chuck blend, rib candy, pepper jack cheese, and Spicy Carolina sauce. I paired it with Boss Beans and French fries. My wife ordered the Smoked Pulled Brisket on a baked potato with pepper jack cheese, butter, sour cream, White BBQ sauce, and Sweet & Spicy sauce, plus a side of banana pudding. MeatBoss_Menu_12-5.pdf The food arrived warm, but it could have been served much hotter. The biggest disappointment was the DDD Burger. For a sandwich that's been showcased on national television, I expected something that would justify the recognition. Instead, it was simply underwhelming. I didn't dislike it, but I certainly didn't get the hype. It lacked the flavor and wow factor you'd expect from a signature item. The sides followed the same pattern. The Boss Beans were basic, and the fries weren't as crispy as they should have been. My wife's loaded baked potato was also underwhelming. The White BBQ sauce and Sweet & Spicy sauce were both okay, but neither added enough flavor to make the dish memorable. Dessert didn't change the outcome. The banana pudding was fine, but there was nothing special about it. Ironically, the best part of our meal was the Coke Zeros. Pros * Authentic country smokehouse atmosphere * Patriotic décor * Generous portions Cons * No greeting upon entering * Food could have been hotter * Signature DDD Burger failed to impress * Basic beans * Fries lacked crispness * Loaded baked potato was underwhelming * Average banana pudding * Overall meal didn't live up to its reputation I genuinely wanted to like Meat Boss, especially given its appearance on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Unfortunately, nothing we ordered stood out enough to make us want to return. For us, Meat Boss wasn't a boss at all. It was more like Meat Meh.
