Ate here today and got very sick! Used to come here years ago and the food was really good but it…read morehas really gone downhill. Ordered the pulled pork platter with two sides and it was terrible. The apples were cold and tasteless. With the cornbread they used to give you a big square of homemade cornbread but now you get a little muffin shaped piece about 2" in diameter and hard as a rock (see photo). The pulled pork tasted bad and after about five minutes after I was done, it hit my stomach and I got very sick. Luckily there is a Family Dollar store across the street and I went there and bought some Imodium. Had to stick around and use Bonnie Blue's restroom twice before felt comfortable enough to make the 45 minute drive back to my home. Got home and felt so bad that I went straight to bed. Obviously I got food poisoning at Bonnie Blue's and think they left the pork out too long and this is why. See photo of my my receipt and the pulled pork platter. Will never go back there & would warn others to avoid this place unless you want to possibly get very sick like I did.

I tried their smoked turkey with BBQ beans and cole slaw. The turkey was great - nicely smoked, moist, and flavorful! They tasted so good when dipped in their mustard BBQ sauce too!! The cole slaw very fresh and tasty, I love how they very thinly slice the cabbage. And those beans were great too! Definitely very nice visit - So glad to see they are doing well, as BBQ joints don't typically do very well once they obtain such popularity, as it's tough to maintain consistent greatness with so many locations. But this one is doing it right! This location is very clearly well-managed, it's obvious from the incredibly high amount of reviews they have and they're maintaining a very near 5 star review - Well, here's another 5 star review for them!

The pulled pork sandwich was so tender and the fries were on point. My dogs loved the fries too. I always get the ice tea 1/2 and half... always delicious. Lots of seating to be had and it wasn't that busy around 4:30.

Upon entering, one of the employees yelled at us to "not step in their pile" (they had swept a pile of dirt by the door) which was then immediately proceeded by someone in the kitchen glaring at us and saying the kitchen is closed (I realize they cook in a batch for the day, so no big deal on that. The problem was the clear frustration at our presence). We were the only people in the store and it was very clear they didn't want us there, so we left without buying anything. I have worked in customer facing jobs and know that it can be rough, so I always try to give people the benefit of the doubt. However, as I drove away I just felt more and more put off by that interaction. The sign on the door said open and there was no indication based on their written hours that they were closing soon, however if they didn't want people in the store maybe they should have turned the sign to closed.

Counter with wine and beer avail, ice cream bars, sodas, too!

Two employees were probably overwhelmed by the 30 people waiting for them to open. The serving sizes are phenomenal. You are certainly getting your monies worth.

The baked beans were fantastic and included that tender brisket that I love. Obviously a product of being cooked for an additional amount of time. The Cole slaw was fresh and flavorful but I like just a bitter sweeter taste for my preference. Overall a solid meal and I certainly recommend for the value and quality.

We wanted to fill up on gas before "going over the mountain". GPS led us to the New Star Market/Shell Gas Station, which was only about a mile off I-81 and directly on our route. The self-service gas area was a bit congested, but we squeezed behind a parked pickup to get to a pump. Gas prices were excellent at $2,75/gallon. I went to check out the small convenience store. They seemed to have pretty much everything that a traveler might want or need, including snacks, a deli, and more. Many other reviewers have mentioned BBQ, and an outdoor sign, advertised this as well. Somehow, my husband and I both missed this -- probably because it wasn't lunch time for us yet! We'll have to check it out again upon our return. The cashier was friendly and polite. Restrooms were outside and clean. .

For the amount we paid them I could have personally provided a lot more food and it would have been hot and yes the food he brought was cold. We were shorted rolls and coleslaw and they brought 2 small pans of meat. I paid $1500 and an extra travel fee. He left early and we had to store his equipment for 6 weeks. He had originally told me he would reimburse me for the coleslaw and roll shortages. There wasn't enough rolls for 100 people. He didn't even bring plates and silverware. I contacted him before the wedding to see if I needed to supply them and was told no he was supplying them. We had to run out while my daughter was having pictures done and purchase plates and plasticware. Absolutely ridiculous!!!! I waited to see what his response would be when we returned his equipment today and I quote.... He said I don't care! Well I guess they got their money so to hell with me. I will never use them again or recommend them to anyone.

All savant's of the pit will hold fast to their belief of what true barbecue is. It requires the…read moresmoke of a certain wood or must be a certain cut. And the greatest debate of them all; what sauce (if any) is the proper one. But there is one element all can agree on; aroma. If you pull up, close enough for the breeze to carry the smoke across your nostrils, you know if it's true barbecue. And on a cold night, having just spent 9 hours driving to Virginia, I had such an experience. A family member called as we got closer to arrival and mentioned Fizzle's. I don't remember his exact words, but they involved a trailer, fire pit, and good sides. It was like going on a blind date with a optimist; I was already in love and had yet to lay eyes on the place. Down this two lane road we traveled, the sun having already set, and I scanned the scenery in anticipation. In what could only be described as some form of bbq voodoo, it magically appeared around a corner. This beacon of light, contrasted against the starless sky, required no flashy signage or voluminous music. It was the sign, and the song, I was looking for. Our windows up, due to the ever dropping temperature, the aroma found its way to me. The savoriness of hickory, with notes of apple wood and cooking pork fat, was a siren and I the surrendering sailer. My appetite spoke for me that night, asking about the larger pork sandwich option, but thankful Reneta advised me that would be an entire pound (whereas the sandwich is still half a pound). I almost went for it, but I tell you wisdom must have intervened in that moment for I was dragging my fork across the finish line as I took the last bite of bean and mac n cheese. The sauce has just a touch of sweetness (likely a pinch of brown sugar), but not too overt. As a child I had a crush on Mrs. Frizzle. Corky, intelligent, encouraging, and she had a magic school bus. But now as a grown up, my new crush is Fizzle. The meat, the sides, the sauce, the seemingly secret locations they may pop up next. If you're in the area, order a plate for me. And I beg of you, tell me the moment they get desserts.
