    Half rack--enormous!
    Jordan T.

    My husband and I are religious about eating our Saturday BBQ. The other day we went to our regular place and found that they were closed, so we tried out Rib Shak instead. It was fine, but by no means would we choose it over our normal BBQ place. I ordered the BBQ sandwich and fries with sweet tea, and my husband ordered the ribs--wet--with fries and tea. My sandwich was fine, but the sauce tasted like what you would get from the BBQ section at Walmart. The fries were VERY tasty though. My husband was hugely disappointed with the ribs. Again, the sauce tasted like it came straight out of the bottle. He was very disappointed that a place called RIB Shak would not have out-of-this-world ribs and sauce. The two staff members we saw were nice, but they weren't really around much. Our food took a long time to appear. At one point I saw the cook leave for a good 10 minutes and come back with a grocery bag--made me think they might have really just gone to the store to buy some BBQ sauce!! Who knows. All in all, I wouldn't go here again. It's not bad, but it's just not good--why eat somewhere that isn't excellent if there are other places that ARE excellent right down the road? P.S. Part of the dining area is basically a storage area for them. There was a pool table that was just covered with all sorts of junk. Strange.

And no joke, they looked super delicious. Cheesy, creamy, meat and carbs: omg. Lots of wine and beer. Tons and tons of gifts and trinkets to take home and commemorate your mountain visit. I didn't photograph much of it but they had great items. There's a bar to eat or sip your coffee right near the front or a large side room with ample seating. The breakfast biscuit sandwiches were off the chart! If they weren't homemade biscuits, I don't want to know because they were delicious. Definitely stop in here. Even if just for a vitamin water or a memento, it's a fab little market. They've got you covered!

I got the cold Cessear salad wrap with chicken and it was very tasty! Limited seating so our party of 12 had to split up. The gift shop had lots of local nick nack stuff too! You can also get things to go in the grocery market store like deli meats and cheeses. I saw some people buying eggs and bread. Greta place! Would highly recommend if you need a light lunch!

    With such good reviews for BBQ and the non-GMO quality of their meat sourced from local farms, I…read morecouldn't wait to try this place. When we drove up, we could smell the hickory smoke and saw the smoker on the sidewalk in front. When we walked in, we were told that menus are on the checkout counter, so I went to grab 2, but before we knew it, the uncle of the owner started reading every item on the menu for an uncomfortably long time. I'm a visual guy so I need to read menus at my own pace. We ordered the lunch combo - 1/2 lb. smoked brisket with 2 sides, 1 sauce, and a fountain drink are included. My wife had the 4 rib lunch with 1 side, 1 sauce, and a drink. There are 4 sauces to choose from. I chose the hot & spicy that was thin and mild; my wife chose the "Bama sauce", a white vinegar & salad dressing sauce that was good. I chose the Brussels sprouts hash and warm German potato salad that were both delicious, and my favorite menu items overall! I was surprised to see the brisket in a foil-wrapped packet next to the bun thinking that this method kept the meat hot, but when I opened the packet, the meat was not hot, but nicely smoked. The brisket was unusually cut into pellet- sized pieces that were slightly dry, under seasoned, and undercooked to my liking, and kept falling out of the bun. I would have preferred the traditional sliced brisket sandwich piled high with some topping choices like homemade pickles, hot peppers, etc. On the positive side, my wife's ribs were huge and they even threw in a few burnt ends. I tried one and thought it was also under seasoned and dry. My wife loved her ribs and said it was tender and juicy! The ambiance is quirky and uninviting with a bar behind the checkout and a few tables. There was a paper sign arrow in the back showing that they have a patio, but you have to walk through a storage area and past the restroom to get there. There were 3 or 4 picnic tables and 1 small bar-height table with 2 chairs. We didn't realize until we left that they served wine and beer until we saw a beer sign over the bar. I'm assuming this place is fairly new and they've got some kinks to work out, but if you go, I'd recommend the ribs and sides!
