Between the 6 of us I think we sampled just about all the meat and side options, can't go wrong with any of it! Check this place out!

Our server was so friendly and helpful and we had a great time talking with her. I got the Hog Heaven Duo -2 meats and 2 sides and corn fritters. I got brisket, ribs, Mac n cheese and whipped sweet potatoes. The ribs were smokey and delicious with just the right amount of pull to get them off the bone. While the brisket had good flavor, it was cut too thin. Most of the slices were a bit dry. The bbq sauce helped and I loved the flavor, not too vinegary and not too sweet... very nice. The Mac n cheese and whipped sweet potatoes were excellent. I'm definitely going back for more.

Family owned and family run…read more Place is 7 months old, met the owner...very down to earth and likable guy. Pay tribute to Debbie's diner, the previous name before new management took over and they pay their respects to that well. "Freedom" runs this new place and overall it was a great experience. We ordered several flavors of wings and the garlic parmesan wings were FANTASTIC. Had them all smoked and then fried...meat fell right off the bones and were very good. They didn't skimp with that pre-made shaker cheese...these were slabs of melted parm with garlic, everything is homemade at this place. The other flavor of wings we had were hot/bbq mix, a white sauce and a southern spicy one which was too bad but the garlic/parm stole the show and wished we had more of those. We will probably just get a single order of the garlic parm next time. The other flavors need a bit more in order to contend with the garlic parm. Bacon wrapped jalapeños were very good! Wish we could have tried the fried green tomatoes but they were sold out. Smashed potatoes with gravy were really good, the Mac salad was so-so...needs more salt and was a little bland. Place is always pretty busy when I drive by and glad I was able to finally try this place out. Prices are VERY fair for a BBQ place which is a nice bonus. Ambience is calm and fun lots of decorations on the wall to check out too. Definitely a summer and biker atmosphere. Overall a very nice addition to the area and it's family owned and operated. Everyone was very friendly. I noticed someone mentioned the smoke in the place from the smokers, it's a BBQ joint so not sure what to expect with that but the smoke wasn't bad at all when we went.

Located in the heart of downtown Holy Smokes Bourbon and BBQ serve up northern New York's most authentic Q (For the out of town people that's north of Syracuse... yes we just started a fight for some people but I digress) Back to the BBQ....Head right to the counter to order your choice of the usual suspects brisket, pork and chicken. Order a platter and try some of their delicious sides. Today I was trying their version of the Philly Cheesesteak as if it got lost down south. The soft chewy bun and the mix as I told the cook... "You do not rush perfection". I definitely was heading towards the need for a nap on a work day but it's definitely a nice change of pace for those that work in the heart of Watertown. So my only gripe but be warned I take my Que seriously is the smoked Mac and cheese lacked smoke but I'm hard to please when it comes to my bbq. I'll definitely be back to try my way around the menu.

We stood at the window for more than 5 minutes without being acknowledged before one of the 2 women in the building said hello. We ordered a Medium Pack (brisket, ribs and pulled pork with 2 sides) to go. We were told they were out of brisket and had only rib tips, but could substitute pulled chicken. We we're quoted a 15 minute wait due to the large party, which was fine. After 30 minutes we were told they were out of coleslaw and we needed to choose a different side. I asked if it would be much longer, and was told at least 15 more minutes. There were no other customers except us and the large party. They were completely unequipped to handle 17 customers, although they have seating for twice that many. We asked for a refund and left. A total waste of time.

Definitely will come back. Place was hopping but we didn't have to wait, food was really quick to come out too! Only negative which I've seen other reviewers mention ... was the drinks. (I'd suggest ordering your drink in a bottle, or bringing a drink from home...) our drinks tasted really awful. (Soda, water; etc) we narrowed it down that we think it was the ice. I wonder if the ice machine needs a cleaning. Something was not right about it. We ended up ordering bottled root-beers for $4 each because we couldn't drink the water. I won't give it a less rating for this- just something to note. Definitely will come again!

Seemingly in the middle of rural upstate NY is this gem of a restaurant. The server and everyone on the staff that interacted with us were simply lovely! Kind, helpful and joyful. I ordered a turkey melt with onion rings, and my friend had a burger with fried which she claimed was one of the best she had eaten in a long time. Accompanied by "sassy sauce" our fries and onion rings were dipped in this delightful yet spicy accoutrement! My turkey melt was delicious- carved turkey- not slimy cold cuts, cheese and banana peppers were a perfect and delectable combination on lightly toasted bread- simply marvelous! For desert- and they are all lovingly homemade, I had a mixed berry pie with ice cream and my friend had a slice of Dutch apple pie! Both equally and fabulously delicious! We left stuffed to the gills and so glad that we turned the truck around to try this hidden gem! Don't pass it up- stop by- it's worth it!
