    Brisket Sandwich and fries
    John C.

    Stopped in to Rib Country for an early lunch on a Saturday. I arrived at 11:05 and had to triple check their hours as there was no one else in the parking lot. Not surprisingly, I was the only person in the restaurant when I was seated too. My server quickly got my drink and returned shortly after to get my order. I wanted a hot dog but I also wanted to try their brisket so I ordered a brisket sandwich (sliced and "dry") plate with a kid's dog on the side. Food came out relatively quickly. The brisket plate just looked...boring...lacking...I'm not sure. You can judge for yourself in the photo. Maybe I was hoping for my fries or some sort of seasoning on the fries. Alas, no. The dog and the bun had both been well charred on a grill which was great to see. I snuck some of the brisket from the sandwich, chopped it up, and loaded up my dog with it. For a DIY concoction it was pretty great. I'd add it to your menu, Rib Country. :) The BBQ sandwich was good. I liked their standard sweet sauce the best though the mustard had good tang. Fries were disappointing. You've got all those seasonings in the back for your bbq, throw some of your fries! This is probably a 3.5 star review in reality. I'd return to this Rib Country or another location to try some of their other offerings.

    The service was amazing! Everyone was super nice and cheerful. The ambiance of the restaurant was exactly what I expected for a place named "rib country". Portions were great. 1. The beans were very sweet. 2. Pork was very under-seasoned. 3. Fries were great! 4. Ribs were delicious 5. The beef was chef's kiss. 6. The coleslaw was the best I've had in a while! Overall, great experience! Highly recommend trying, if you're visiting from out of town.

    I was feeling frisky, so I asked my husband if he wanted to try a new BBQ spot for Vday. Our highlights were the baby back ribs, brisket, and the tangy mustard BBQ sauce. We also enjoyed the baked beans and sweet potato sides. The workers were very kind and attentive and sweetly wished us a Happy Valentines Day. If you're craving good NC BBQ, this is it!

    After eating almost half-there is still so much more to eat

    OMG, this place is so good....Mark was our server and he was amazing....the food was so good and they give you so much...we had the Fried Green tomatoes to start..My husband had the smoked Chicken Wings and I had the pull pork sandwich......the were so good... Our service Mark was so nice and helpful on choosing what we should try (the fried apple pies)...he made sure we had everything we need before we could even ask for it! The people at this restaurant really care about you and the food they are giving you.

    A great time of family fellowship and food.

    Local folks love it, but compared to the ribs I am used to from Atlanta the ribs are tiny and have very little meat.

    If you're anywhere near Dillsboro or Franklin and craving barbecue done right, do yourself a favor…read moreand head straight to Haywood Smokehouse. This place doesn't just serve food--they serve comfort, craftsmanship, and enough smoky goodness to make you wonder why you ever ate anywhere else. The star of my visit? The fried honey BBQ ribs. Good grief. These things should come with a warning label because once you take that first bite--crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and coated in that sticky-sweet honey BBQ magic--you're officially ruined for all other ribs. They're the kind of ribs that make you pause mid-bite just to appreciate what's happening. Absolute perfection. The service was exceptional from the greeter that welcomed us when we walked in to our server (Paige). Everything else followed suit: hearty portions, rich smoky flavor throughout, and sides that taste like they came straight from someone's grandma's kitchen. The staff was friendly, the atmosphere cozy, and the whole experience felt like a hug delivered through barbecue. If you're looking for a place that feels authentic, delicious, and memorable, Haywood Smokehouse deserves a spot at the top of your list. And seriously--don't leave without getting those fried honey BBQ ribs. You'll be thinking about them long after the plate is empty.

    Cute restaurant and bar in Franklin. They also have 2 other locations near by. One in Dillard's…read moreand Waynesville NC that we haven't visited yet. But we plan to. The Dry rub Ribs are moist, most tasty and we love them. They have several sauces. Our favorite is Georgia Fire! When you have a craving for ribs you should go right over to Haywood Smokehouse!!
