Both the men I saw asked multiple times if everything was good and if I needed anything. The food is soooooo soooo good. I loved how non fatty the pulled pork was it was absolutely delicious! I loved the bbq sauce choices they had. The sides were absolutely delicious and amazing as well. The ambience was quiet and I enjoy that a lot because it's better to be able to talk to your friends and family rather then yelling across the table. I will definitely come back and give them my services again. If you see this place you have to try it. I truly truly loved this place so so much. May God continue to keep your business thriving.

They're located at the end of the Shelby Co Regional Airport runway. You have to walk down to a gate, thru or around a small cemetery and across a two-lane rd. Well worth it.

After a quick look, I opted for their famous chopped pork plate with double cole slaw. I learned later that I got just about the last of the day. Yes, this is fresh and it sells out! And why does it sell out? Because it is really good queue. Moist and flavorful though I think it would have been better without the sauce added in the kitchen. I did have one nibble of a hush puppy. Light and fluffy and just a little greasy. Very, very good. And not keto so I skipped the rest. Overall, really good service and great pork that doesn't need the sauce.

You order at the counter and then they seat you. The young ladies were patient with us since it took us a while to decide. We went with the traditional dishes. The food came out quickly and the young lady who was waiting our area was always checking our drinks. Honestly the food was so so and we weren't too impressed. I'm glad we shared our meal and didn't go all out. Overall we felt it was so so. I did get a souvenir t-shirt. Wish I had a better review to post. Overall it's an okay spot and hope it was just an isolated incident.

The best deal on the menu is the sandwich with a side. We ordered three and then all agreed on the sides so we could try each others.

We went early but it was getting packed by the time we left so timing is critical. Lots of parking, friendly southern service, great clientele and people. Would absolutely go again if in this area.
