They have a large assortment of frozen specialties fish, beef and other farm table products as well as locally made cheeses and spreads and canned items. Service was amazingly friendly. It's a small little shop just one room, but definitely leaves a big impression.

    Very disappointing experience. I drove 30 minutes each way after being told this place was the best…read moreand was excited to try them for the first time. Unfortunately, the service did not live up to the hype. I paid for smoking, flavoring, and individual vacuum sealing in small packages. What I received was a disorganized mess. None of the packages were labeled, and everything was tossed into a box with two loose labels floating around--we had no idea which flavor was which. Several packages were leaking, and many were poorly sealed with air inside. That completely defeats the purpose of vacuum sealing, which is meant to preserve the fish. Before writing this review, I contacted the business. I was told to "just eat the poorly sealed ones first." Really? We paid extra for vacuum sealing to avoid having to rush through the fish. I was also reminded that the seals aren't guaranteed, which I understand--but they should at least be sealed properly when I pick them up. They sell meat in their store, and I guarantee they wouldn't sell anything in the condition they gave me. I love supporting local businesses, but as customers, we also have to be mindful of where we spend our money. This wasn't a cheap service, and the lack of care and follow-through and customer service was incredibly disappointing.

We came right at opening so everything was pretty clean although staff were still roaming around finishing up different tasks. Our waitress was friendly and helpful, gave us sufficient time to look over the menu and checked in enough to not be over-bearing. While we were there, several customers came in to either to order take-out or pick up their take-out. It was awhile before some of them were acknowledged and then there was no real place for them to wait. So everyone was shuffling around awkwardly to make room for incoming customers, while those waiting had to stand in the entrance, near the bar. The food is why we came. The menu photos looked amazing and their facebook page is always getting rave reviews and comments by other customers. We were kind of disappointed. The onion rings had a nice crunch- but it was a lot of batter and not a lot of onion OR flavor. Both of us agreed it need some sort of seasoning. The dipping sauce was okay and a very small portion. My husband was very excited to try the half chicken with their rub- but after two bites said, "This rub is literally like dirt." I tasted it and yes, it had a very grainy feel in your mouth and definitely had an earthy overtone. He said the fries were the star and the white chipotle sauce was good. I got the Southwest salad and added brisket for an additional $4. The brisket itself was pretty good- although for some reason I was expecting it to be in thinner strips, not small chunks. The salad mix itself was very basic. Very... "leafy"- and it absolutely needed more dressing. Overall, I felt underwhelmed and like it was something I could make at home. We aren't dying to go back anytime soon- but if we're ever in the mood, I think I'd like to try their brunch options or maybe a sandwich.

What a pleasant surprise to find Sweet Racks and Smokin' Butts BBQ! We stopped in on a Sunday afternoon, probably around 2pm or so, the inside was bigger than I was expecting, plenty of seating, not cramped...and great background music :-). We were both in the mood for brisket - my wife opted for the loaded mashed potatoes with brisket and I got the 2 meat meal and went with chopped brisket for both meats (a total of 1/2 lb), I decided on the mac and cheese and the smoked beans. We decided to dine in, our food came out pretty quick - maybe 10 minutes tops. Holy cow - WOW - it was amazing - the brisket was fantastic, the mac & cheese was delicious...I wasn't expecting much from the beans, they're usually an afterthought. Not these - they were the most unique smoked beans I've had - a surprise sweetness (just enough to throw me off) - and a bit of heat, just the right amount for me - Not too hot where it detracts from the flavor, but enough to say "I'm not your average baked beans with some smoky flavor." The "only" thing I wish is they had was adult beverages - a cold beer would have been icing on the cake....although, there is a brewery literally a stone's throw away. I should've asked if the brewery allows you to bring over food - or now that it's getting nice out, some outdoor seating between the two would have been great...hint hint :-) One piece of advice, when we got there, the ribs had already sold out - must be really popular, as someone had come in where we were there wanting to get ribs and decided to wait and come back just for the ribs. So, you probably need to get there earlier if you're expecting ribs. Knowing that, we'll have to go earlier next time and give them a shot. At any rate, the food and service was awesome, we'll definitely be back! Keep up the great work!
