The sweet potato casserole was the best I've had, and the potato salad was fully loaded. Loved the sauce varieties, and had the mud pie for dessert which was scrumptious. The staff was so friendly and helpful. Lots of seating, lots of parking, lots to do...gift shop, glamping, the bayou, and of course "the poo with a view", lol.

We'd heard so much about this place and couldn't wait to try it. Unfortunately, it was a huge disappointment from the moment we walked in. The woman taking our order seemed irritated that we were asking questions about the menu. She wasn't friendly or welcoming at all. As for the food... save yourself the trip. It was so bad we threw almost all of it away. I didn't even think to take pictures because we were too shocked at how terrible everything was. We ordered a rack of ribs, brisket, and two sausages. Every single meat was extremely dry and overcooked. The ribs were so dry they felt like eating beef jerky covered in BBQ sauce. The brisket was the same--dry with BBQ sauce poured over it. The sausages were overcooked, dry, and honestly tasted more like Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage than barbecue. The sides were the only decent part of the meal. The mac and cheese was okay, but the collard greens were the standout. They were the only thing I actually finished. It honestly felt like everything was smothered in BBQ sauce to hide how dry and overcooked the meat was. Whoever is running the pit seriously needs to reevaluate the cooking process. We definitely won't be back. I only wish we'd kept driving and stopped somewhere else.

We started with the southwest egg rolls, they were good, but the star of that plate was the sauce they were served with. It was sweet and spicy. I had the baked potato and added chicken. It was fantastic, loaded with green onions, pickled onions, house made pickles and queso and tons of chicken. It was a meal in itself and I really enjoyed it. Also got to sample the Mac daddy sandwich, mac & cheese was creamy and cheesy. Sampled my wife's sope, and it was really good as well. This is not your average barbecue joint, only regret is not trying it sooner. Will definitely make the 45 minute drive to come here again.

Decent BBQ joint that seems to VERY popular with the locals. For the area it is probably one of the…read morebest options. It absolutely doesn't compare to what I'm used to at my regular joints in New Orleans, Texas etc. etc. During my first visit I was considering making a return visit to sample their burger but after looking at pictures of the burger and from my experience of their BBQ I just think I'm not going to ever be motivated enough to make a return visit as to me it just doesn't ring my bell as I've been so spoiled by Gonzo's Smokehouse in Luling, LA (best in the WORLD as far as I'm concerned) Austin, TX BBQ (second places-ish with other Texas joints) and Kansas City BBQ (always fighting for the top spot)... Once you've experienced Nirvana it is hard to fall back to mere mortal morsels although if you put that BBQ meat in front of me when I'm hangry I will totally destroy it like a pack of lions or school of rabid piranhas as I'm all about a big pile of meat and my carnivore beast instincts will take over!!!

We discussed the menu and she gave me wonderful drink recommendations. Once I placed my order, my food quickly arrived at my table, piping hot. I intentionally ordered a larger portion meal so that I could take half of it to go for dinner later. Again, Randi came through with to-go containers included small containers for sauce. She included napkins, plastic ware and a wet nap. After my meal, I had some time to spare before I needed to head to the train. Randi told me to take my time and hang out, no rush. She refilled my water and I sat and read on my Kindle until it was time for me to go. When traveling alone, you don't know what to expect when you try a business for the first time. Will you be greeted warm, how will the service be...you just never know. This was a 5 star experience across the board. And Randi, if you ever see this; Thank you Queen! You are a beautiful soul!

New location is gorgeous but they bit off more than they can chew. The location in Gulfport and Bay…read moreSt Louis (no longer operating...) are way better. Now that they have expanded at this location, it seems like it's gone downhill. The smaller locations have always been better. The burnt ends I had at the smaller location were tender, fresh, and plentiful, the last few times I've come to this new LARGE location, the first time they were out of burnt ends, second time they were dry and crumbly - like they been left under a heat lamp for 2 days. Potato salad, house salad, and fries are good. Collards are hit or miss. You can't tell they're even open, both times we've been we are the ONLY customers. The whole staff is so bored. They're pretty friendly considering they only have to tend to one or two people at a time. The open signs never on and the windows are dark so they look closed. I do enjoy the drinks, atmosphere, and good bbq but since this new spot has opened they've really gone downhill. I'm not sure I'll be back to this location if I ever decide to return - it's really a bummer. Even more depressing is the Bay St. Louis location closing because the bartender was friendly and kept great conversation, burnt ends I had there were the best, and I thought the location was great.

I understand BBQ is probably the most scrutinized but I'm not a BBQ regular and just trying to be objective. I got a two meat plate which also came with two sides. The pulled pork was more like sloppy Joe style with way too much sauce. The brisket was really thin and more like bacon. I thought the amount of food was small. It all fit on one 8-10" plate. The price was $18.99 plus all the extra OS taxes and tip so ended up being $25 for lunch. Unfortunately, I regretted eating here; especially contemplating other options I could eat out for $25 and decided I won't be back.
