    Pretty good bbq spot. They have a lot of good bbq options Delicious rib sandwich also the old fashion one

    3 meat plate. Brisket, sausage and pulled pork.

    I find it difficult to enjoy BBQ from a restaurant because I'm constantly critiquing it against my own. This was hands down the best plate of BBQ I've ever had from a restaurant. Everything was consistent. Brisket was spot on for Texas style. Sausage and pulled pork both were excellent. Potato salad had a great mustard wang! Mac N Cheese was a little too runny, but the flavor was really good. They don't skimp on portion sizes or relish items (pickles, onions and jalapeños) Great friendly service to boot. Might seem a little pricey, but not really considering the quality. If you're a real BBQ fan, this is a must try place.

    Working in the area of Wink and Kermit for the next few months and decided to give this place a try. I came in for a late lunch. The building is nice and there is plenty of seating. There is a small bar top with about four beers on draft. This placed seemed clean. I had the one meat plate with a mix of lean and moist brisket. My two sides were potato salad and macaroni and cheese. Pro-beer was cold Cons-The brisket was almost cold in certain points of a slice, indicating it was reheated or warmed. It wasn't dry, but it did lack flavor. I could not taste any smoke whatsoever. I recommend cranking up the oak and hickory usage since that is what they claim to use. The potato salad was mustard based, but it was more like mashed potato salad. The macaroni and cheese was lackluster but it tasted alright. They need to turn up the heat on their steam table because the macaroni and cheese was barely warm. I'd return to try something else as for all I know the chicken, ribs, or sausage could be good. I'll give the pinto beans a try as one of my sides next time.

    A great dinner.

    I came to eat here for the first time on Tuesday November 19th and I was happy to meet some very nice people . My server was Isabel she was sweet and she makes sure you are satisfied and Keeps your drink full . She is very knowledgeable of things and she is kind and polite and she always has a smile on that beautiful face. People here greet you as you come in and you sit down and leave your worries outside. I had the three meat dinner and pinto beans and potatoes with bacon bits and a big class of sweet tea and a cold beer. And topped it off with peach cobbler with ice cream. I was stuffed. And today is November 20th for lunch I sat down and was greeted by Carman . She is sweet and friendly and kind and cheerful and she keeps your tea full and always checking to see how your doing. Today I had a pulled pork sandwich and a baked potato and a big glass of sweet tea. And again topped it off with a peach cobbler. So delicious. If you have not ate here I would encourage you to do so it is very good.

    Smoked chicken, green beans and mixed vegetables

    Best smoked chicken that I have ever had, great service and a reasonable price. $18.80 with a tea

    Alright everyone, if you are within an hour of Kermit and looking for a great place to get some BBQ, this is it. Many places these days are afraid to add too many seasonings or spices to their food, leaving it bland and boring, but you won't find that here. They've got flavor, and they aren't afraid to flaunt it. Here's what we had: Sausage - 5 stars, great flavor, great sauce, top notch stuff all around. Potato Salad - 4.25 stars, excellent taste, we did add a little pepper to satisfy our own personal preference for a high dose, but even without it, some great flavors there and some of the best we've had lately. Beans - 3.5 stars, definitely not your "open a can and serve" beans - they spent some time on them, and there was some good flavor. Probably the only thing that had much of any room for improvement, maybe they could add some bacon or something, but even without that, they are quite tasty. Cole Slaw - 5 stars. Hands down some of the best we've had. Great flavor and again no skimping on the spices here. A little different looking than you might expect, but once you take a bite, you will know you made a great choice. Overall atmosphere - 5 stars. We loved the giant US and Texas flags and all the college flags hanging around the restaurant. The indoor/outdoor feel is very nice and makes the place feel more like you are in your backyard cooking barbecue, which I am sure was the desired effect. Service was about as expected for the time we came this go-round. We came right in the middle of the lunch rush, and they were pretty well packed, so wait times were understandably slightly long, but everyone was on task and doing their best to keep up. We can't mark them down for it since the other 2 times we each came solo outside of the lunch rush, service was quite speedy. They even offer a military discount, which is definitely appreciated. Overall, we give the place a 5-star rating and are so happy to have it in our home town. We will be back - often. If you have not checked it out yet - you should as soon as you can; you are missing out.

    Old Fashion Grilled Cheese- Mac and cheese grilled cheese, and "old fashion" meat. So good!

    We enjoyed it so much, we ate lunch on a Thursday, and went back for dinner on Friday! Fun atmosphere and good food.

    Enjoying our luch

    Meat often smelled like maybe seafood, I don't believe it was spoiled but it may have been some type of cross-contamination of some sort.

    Good flavor, but tough. Chicken a little dry. Sides are very good as are the deserts. Nice place, good atmosphere.
