We are constantly searching for a rather out-of-the-way barbecue joints that are local, small,…read moreindependent...and star-worthy...Of those aspects, Rusty's is definitely independent, small, and local. Unfortunately, food falls far short of the stars I had hoped to find here. While service was friendly and quick, the food that was delivered simply did not score well. Chicken and Brisket were our choices and they both lacked depth of flavor. Most importantly - both were quite dry. (Chicken skin was moist and crisp, but meat was not. We all know chicken dries out pretty quickly.) I was especially disappointed by the brisket. (Good brisket is one of my frequent nation-wide food quests.) The brisket shown in my photos should be moist and tender, with a slight glisten on the surface and a bit more color on the edges. But, you can see how dry my serving was - (FYI no altering of the photo on my part.) : -( Sides received mixed reviews from us. Star of the whole show were the collards - savory and served piping hot. Okra had a nice light coating and not greasy at all - but they were not very warm (temperature). Potato salad was pretty plain. Marinated coleslaw got one thumbs up and one down from us. It reminded me very much of old-fashioned vinegar chowchow minus the other veggies; biggest downside to it was the size and inconsistency of the shreds...just too clunky. Spicy jalapeño mini muffins....excellent. Plain white bread? (no butter or spread?) Wish I had ordered the baked beans (2 kinds). And a last note - sauces were thin and simply not memorable, lacking true character. Locals....please keep coming here...I'm sure there are combos we did not try that are pleasing. But as for us, we need to keep travelin' on.

They were quite literally out of everything on the menu except for one or two things. It would have been easier if they had just written down what was available instead of saying what was not. The bartender was really nice and was patient with the questions we had regarding what was available. We were able to still purchase drinks, I had the Salty Watermelon Whiskey Margarita ($10). I would definitely recommend to anyone it wasn't too sweet and was the perfect pairing of flavors. The prices were fair for the drinks so I would definitely come back and hope to be able to try some of the food options.

For context, I'm a certified KCBS BBQ judge and run a small BBQ catering business. That doesn't make me special, but it does mean I know BBQ. Rodney Scott is well-known in the BBQ world for whole hog, so I've been looking forward to trying his food for a long time. Today was the day. I ordered the 3-meat plate with ribs, pulled pork, and turkey, plus two sides. Ribs: Excellent smoke flavor and seasoning, but very undercooked--they needed at least another hour on the smoker. I received three bones, managed to eat most of two, and left the third. Big disappointment. Turkey: Tender but dry, and it tasted like it had been sliced a while earlier and held. Very neutral flavor with no smoke or seasoning coming through. Just okay, but I'd skip it next time. Pulled pork: Completely underwhelming. Tender, but almost no flavor and none of the smoke I expected, especially after tasting the ribs. Mac and cheese: Grainy and not enjoyable. There are several reasons mac and cheese can turn grainy, but either way, I'd pass on it next time. Collard greens: Surprisingly good, but I was shocked they didn't have pepper juice available--a Southern staple with greens. I'd eat these again, but I'd bring my own pepper juice. Overall: I left disappointed. I mentioned to the staff--who were very friendly--that the meal wasn't good, but it was brushed off. With the level of anticipation I had for Rodney Scott's, this visit didn't come close to expectations. I don't see myself returning.

I can't tell you how the BBQ is because we always get either the catfish sandwich or the grilled mahi sandwich. You can make any meat or sandwich into a combo with a choice of 2 of their daily sides.

The red ranch (BBQ ranch) is pretty good whether on a salad or a dip for their smoked wings. Ambiance wise... it's a BBQ joint.

If you ain't ate at Charlie's Barbecue... are you really a cowboy?…read more I rolled in hungry enough to rope a tornado and walked out feelin' like I just survived a holy experience in smoked meat. I ordered the three-plate feast -- ribs, chicken, and pork -- and every bite was straight-up legendary. The ribs? Fall-off-the-bone tender with that perfect smoky bark that makes a cowboy close his eyes and thank the heavens. The chicken? Juicy, smoky, cooked so right it oughta have its own fan club. The pork? Melted like warm butter on a biscuit -- pure magic. And that coleslaw? To. Die. For. Cold, crisp, tangy perfection -- the kind of slaw that makes you lean back, grin, and nod slow. But the chili... good grief. That chili was out of this world -- like they simmered it over campfire coals blessed by a thousand trail riders before me. Charlie's Barbecue ain't just a meal -- it's a dusty-boot, hat-tip, full-throttle cowboy experience. If you ain't ate here yet, Cowboy... go fix that.
