The inside was very clean and offered indoor dining or carry out. We ordered the pulled pork platter the two sides for this were the baked beans and the vinegar slaw. The pulled pork was some of the best I've eaten. I didn't add any sauce -no need to change that delicious flavor!! We also ordered the rib and brisket platter. Again, what can I say but both meats were tremendously yummy. However we did try some of the Alabama white sauce on the ribs-- yum!! The collard greens and potato salad were also good. Prices are moderate and the service was quick. The staff were very friendly and attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant!

The ambiance is pretty humble, but it is thefood that truly shines here. I went with the chicken and for my sides I went with the potato salad and the hot mustard slaw. The chicken was stellar. The potato salad was great. Personally, I was not blown away by the mustard slaw, but I never had it before and it could just be me. Mitchell's Smoked Meats is analyzing choice and I would definitely recommend Mitchell's Smoked Meats.

The sign for the place is a little hard to see and I missed the turn to enter the parking area initially. Made our way back and found a spot, though the lot is a little bit hard to maneuver. We walked inside to a slightly hot, slightly dim interior. It's larger than it looks on the outside. A friendly waitress told us we could sit where we liked, so we took a booth near a window so we could see the menu better. Their choices were fairly varied for lunch. Lunches come with a meat + 3 veggies and your choice of bread. I ordered the boneless fried chicken breast, macaroni and cheese, fried okra, and at the recommendation of our waitress, the hash brown casserole with a roll as my bread. My mom got the country fried steak with brown gravy, macaroni and cheese, fried okra, cabbage, and a roll. My dad got the same thing except he subbed the cabbage for greens of some sort, though I can't recall if they were turnip or collard greens. He also got the fried cornbread. Our waitress was very nice and patient with us, even with my dad chatting her up, lol. Our food came out quickly. You pay at the register up front -- we thought the prices were reasonable. As for the food itself, it was enjoyable! Simple, straightforward, but tasty and comforting. The chicken was breaded expertly and was cooked well. To me, the stand out was the fried okra, which was perfectly crisp. We also enjoyed the macaroni and cheese, greens, and chicken fried steak. My mom said her best thing was the cabbage, which was surprising at first -- but I agree, the cabbage was excellent! The hashbrown casserole and the fried cornbread were the only two letdowns; the casserole needed to be cooked and seasoned a bit more, and the cornbread was likewise a little on the floppy side, instead of having pleasantly crisp edges. Overall, though, solid country cooking at a reasonable price served quickly by nice people. Give them a go if you're in the area.

She said absolutely not--- haha those were the most perfectly cut green beans I have ever seen, and they tasted as canned as they come. The desserts were bland. Hubby liked his grilled chicken. I kept looking at the meatloaf on another diner's plate, thinking it would have been a better choice. This might be Southern cooking by some standards but I think there is much better and more authentic out there.
