    This is the BBQ we've been missing. It's located in downtown DeRidder in an old bungalow converted…read moreinto a restaurant and run by some lovely people who really know their food. It's larger than it appears and is very clean. It is handicapped accessible, thankfully, with a ramp on the side and very large bathrooms. The menu is a la carte and the meat is sold by weight, so it is easy to over order by mistake. (I did, severely underestimating how much 1/3 of a pound was. So, I ended up with a generous portion of leftovers for my lunch the next day. Definitely a win-win scenario.) My husband and I both had the 1/3 lb pulled pork and a link of the jalapeño cheddar sausage (also approximately 1/3 lb). There was their own BBQ sauce on the table that others in my party liked, but I thought the pork was very well seasoned as is. The sausage was probably the best I've had, with a great jalapeño taste and lots of cheddar chunks throughout. The casing had a wonderful snap. My DIL had the brisket, so juicy and tender, and my son had the smoked turkey - really a superior meat. I chose the macaroni & cheese as a side. It was super creamy and had green chilies throughout, giving it a nice heat. My husband had the baked beans which he really enjoyed. The other side ordered was the tater tot casserole. That was knock-your-socks-off delicious. It made the famous chain restaurant ("CB") version of hash brown casserole pale in comparison. Seriously, it was unbelievably delicious. Every plate (tray) came with a homemade cucumber pickle and pickled onions, nice to cut the delicious meats' "fattiness." There was also a sweet cornbread muffin that tasted more dessert-y than side dish-y. A lovely young gentleman came out of the kitchen while we were eating to offer us a sample of their "beef bacon" they were trying out. It was really interesting, thin jerky-like beef, but tender with bacon flavoring. If they do decide to offer it, it could be a hit for them. Not picture - my husband got a banana pudding to take home. He thought it was one of the best he's had. The rest of us were too full to think about dessert, something we regretted later on. Yes, this place is a bit on the expensive side, but it was absolutely worth every penny. The meats and the sides were so high quality and delicious, homey food with a five-star treatment.

    The Brisket at this place is amazing. All of the sides are…read morebursting with southern flavor and the staff couldn't be any better. The second you walk across that wooden front porch and swing open the gateway to country charm and southern hospitality. Your taste buds are screaming from the mesmerizing smell of the "unruhly" beast. If you are coming to deridder and want to satisfy your Barbecue addiction. DO NOT let this place go without trying.

Come again, so I asked her what would they do if I didn't have any other form of payment, do you take our food back and she said yes. How is this even a thing It's not our responsibility as customers to make sure we have small bills and you don't have change in the store. I called the store spoke to the manager on duty Stacey to get more clarity. She stated they had switched shifts, I asked well could I have waited 5 more minutes and you could have broken the $100 bills? She said no because they still wouldn't have had it! I don't understand I looked for signs stating no large bills but didn't find one. Other fast food places have a sign no bills bigger than a $20, $50 or $100. The right thing to have been is to tell us they were switching shifts, not just simply we can't break it and take our food back. How unprofessional!!! Luckily my husband and I were able to make up the $30 for the order so we could enjoy our sonic but now it's like we don't even want to come back Get it together, get change in place or simply train your staff to let customers know shifts are changing and they wouldn't be able to break change at that time.
