We saw this location and thought, perfect! I'm sorry to say from the get go, it wasn't the best experience. The young man at the register clearly wanted to be anywhere but there. He looked bored out of his mind and welcoming just wasn't in his wheelhouse. Our burgers were so overcooked they were borderline burnt. The fries were overcooked and nearly hard. They forgot to put my hot dog in the bag with the rest of the food. The chocolate shake was the only thing that was properly made and tasted very good. If I found myself in this area again I doubt we'd give it a try again.

The folks who run it are super friendly, and take great care of me. I've tried a variety of dishes and have always been pleased. Today I had a seafood stew with shrimp and rice and a fried egg on top, it was fantastic!! Like nothing I've ever had before. The prices are excellent, especially for the quantity of food they give you.

By the time I left at 10:00 the place was packed. Just an FYI for late Saturday breakfasters. I ordered the Red Hot sandwich (Brightleaf Red Hot, egg, and cheese on toast) with tater tots. It took maybe a little longer than I would have expected to come out from the kitchen but I wasn't in a rush. The sandwich was so good. I loved the extra kick of the red hot. The egg was fried just right and the bread was well-toasted. Tater tots were crispy and hot. Could have used a touch of seasoning. The seating area is plentiful and accommodated many of the families there for breakfast today. They've got merchandise hanging on the back wall so clearly this place is well known and loved. I can see why!

Meat is sold by the pound here. 1/4 pound don't sound like much but fills an average person up nicely. If yer like me, n want leftovers for late-night tv watchin', or t'take to work for lunch t'marra, go ahead n order a half pound. I ordered brisket, which was so tender it fell apart on my fork, n sausage, which was already cut in slices for me but dripping juice anyway. (They serve it right here, too, obviously). You git yer choice of their house sawses. Their Grand Champion Sawse, which is a smoky-tangy-sweet, or Competition Sawse, which is "tangy-sweet w/a little heat" (I didn't find it "hot" but I'm used t'eatin' jalapenos) or the North Carolina Sawse, which is yer Tarheel Vinegar style. They're all good, and I et a bit o each, but the Competition Sawse is prolly my fave. The food is very reasonably priced, especially for bbq, and you won't spend n arm n a leg if'n ya eat here. We love their vittles, n plan t'ask 'em about catering our anniversary party t'add a touch o class t'the occasion. Recommend highly!!!

Exceptional food AND service!!!…read more The Redneck BBQ Lab is conveniently located right off of I-40 and is a great place to stop in for a great meal. If you are traveling (or just need fuel) you can fill up at the fuel pumps while grabbing a bite to eat, as this restaurant is connected to a gas station! The brisket here is tender and has a great balance of fat and lean meat. Their competition sauce goes great with it, along with some freshly brewed sweet tea to chug it down! The jalapeño mac and cheese is awesome but you can definitely taste the jalapeño. It is not subtle. They also give you a biscuit AND a slice of cornbread! Even though this is a "help yourself" restaurant with free seating and grab-it-yourself utensils, there is an employee frequently walking around asking if he can refill your drinks and is welcome to strike up a conversation with you. The one in particular is extremely friendly, and is always at the restaurant to make your experience more enjoyable!

We were looking for a yelp recommendation in this area and we were directed here. I was a little…read moreconcerned when we drove up to an empty parking lot, but realized it was 3:30 in the afternoon so probably an off time for eating. Upon entering, we could tell that the restaurant had not been updated in a while, but it seemed to clean enough. We were seated immediately and our drink orders were taken. Our waitress recommended the cheesy bread so we got that as an appetizer. We then ordered a pepperoni calzone to split. While we were waiting for our food to come out, we went to the restroom. It did not smell pleasant in there and the floors throughout the entire restaurant were a little sticky. I was highly prepared for our food to come out and look like it had come out of the freezer. However, it was obvious that this food was homemade. And it was freaking delicious. I have not had crust like that since I was a child getting a personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut back in the day. They just don't make it like that anymore. Seriously this crust was amazing! And the calzone had so much cheese on it. We could not even finish it, it was so rich. That dough was yeasty, almost like a donut. AND THE MARINARA! I don't usually like marinara. But this had almost an Indian flavor to it. It was excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed our food here. This would have been a five star if the restaurant, especially the bathrooms had been cleaner. But I would eat here again.
