The brisket and sausage were…read moredelicious -- they offered both lean and fatty brisket, and the fatty brisket they served us had great flavor without being overly greasy. The mac and cheese came out hot, creamy, and cheesy. The beans were a bit on the sweeter side, but I actually ended up using them almost like BBQ sauce instead of their house sauce. The peach cobbler was probably the only disappointment for me. It was just okay and left me feeling a little underwhelmed. The overall vibe of the restaurant felt a little off. There's a sit-down dining area, but most of the orders I noticed seemed to be takeout, and there wasn't any music playing, which made the place feel a bit empty and quiet

We were catering a memorial service for my dad who passed away and everyone was going to be at the cemetery when we had the catering delivered. We had our trusted neighbors open up the house for their team to deliver and set up the food before we all returned. They set everything up and had the food ready to serve all ready to go for when we got back to the house. Looking back I really wish I would have taken a photo of the setup when we got home. The food was amazing and the service top notch! Worth every penny. Will definitely use them again in the future!!

The guy working the window was genuinely friendly and took the time to give me samples of both the pulled pork and the brisket, which already told me they care about what they're serving. I went with the mac & cheese brisket bowl with jalapeños on top, and it delivered exactly how it looked. Rich, smoky brisket over creamy mac and cheese with a solid kick from the jalapeños. It looked amazing and actually lived up to it, which doesn't always happen. Between the food, the service, and the setup with the brewery, this is an easy 5 stars and definitely something I'll be coming back for.

The tri tip was not only delicate and tender but also very flavorful WITHOUT any bbq sauce. The chef was so gracious in explaining his process in meat preparation as well. In my opinion, that is a sign of a great cook or chef, the sharing of the process because there's no threat of competition from others.

Unfortunately, the food didn't match the quality of the service. I ordered a 1/2 slab of beef ribs for about $45 before tax. They *looked* perfectly seasoned, but the flavor just wasn't there. It honestly tasted like pepper seasoning was thrown on after cooking. The biggest disappointment was the texture, the meat was extremely tough, easily the toughest ribs I've ever had. The only highlight was the barbecue sauce, which was actually pretty good, but not enough to save the dish. Overall, despite the nice vibes and friendly staff, the food missed the mark for me. Nothing about this experience would make me return
