There is a small dining area for people wanting to stay in out of the weather. There is a KFC just down the road, but there is probably more fried chicken sold through this grocery store. The smell of chicken hits you in the parking lot. The store itself is OK. It has a pretty good variety of foods. It can lean a little heavy on generic brands, but some of those can be pretty good. The meat selection is pretty extensive. For a store, in a town with a population in the 5,000s, it is odd that I find frozen pizza dough here, yet I can't find it in my town of 15,000. Since Food Giant only has one other grocery store to compete with it would be easy for them to let the cleanliness and quality slip, but it is always clean and well-stocked.

I purchased a half cow from Rickman's based on the excellent experience I had with them last year…read more At that time, the product quality and customer service were both outstanding. Unfortunately, this most recent purchase was a major disappointment. The ground beef is significantly overworked, with a texture more like paste than proper ground beef. It has an unusually soft, almost mushy consistency, and the meat-to-fat ratio also seems off. While cooking, I have had to drain excessive amounts of grease. The flavor is acceptable, but the texture is often mealy and unpleasant. I contacted the butcher to provide feedback. I was not seeking a replacement for the roughly 120 pounds of ground beef I received. I simply wanted acknowledgment of the issue and reassurance that steps would be taken to prevent it from happening again. Instead, I was told the texture was the result of the cow's genetics. I found that explanation difficult to accept, as texture issues of this nature are typically associated with processing and preparation. Rather than addressing the concern, the response appeared to shift responsibility away from the butcher and onto the rancher. What disappointed me most was not the product itself, but the handling of the concern. A sincere acknowledgment and a willingness to discuss the issue would have gone a long way. Unfortunately, based on both the product quality and the customer service response, I will not be making future purchases from Rickman's.

I went here on a recommendation from a friend who spends time in the Oxford area on business and…read moreloves BBQ. She had never been herself, mind you. She just said that she heard about "a shack in the middle of nowhere with great ribs." I had to kill half my phone's battery to find a mention of the place that had an address. As for the business hours and phone number? Forget about it. But the lure was enticing - a small family-run grocery with no seating and raved-about smoked meats. And the name itself (supposedly the Mom's name of the Mom and Pop proprietors) was enough for me to go in search of it. When and if you go on this quest and your GPS directs you to get on Old Oxford Road off of 7 *NORTH OF* the 310 junction, ignore it and get on Old Oxford Road where it joins 7 below 310. Because if you do that, my friends, it's the very first property you come across. And if you do what I did and put your faith in your smart phone, you will end up on a very long roundabout which is only partially paved and you car's paint job and suspension will thank me if you don't do that. And if you are looking at the map right next to this review and not understanding how that can be, that's because THE MAP IS LYING TO YOU. I told Yelp where to put the red-star marker thingy and they are ignoring me. It should be waaaaay below where it is, at the other point where 7 and 310 meet. However you get there, when you get there the grocery is really just that by appearances. Most of the other customers (and there were a few) were there for beer. There's room for about a dozen cars to park, but there would be more if the rusted out car cemetery was cleared out of the backyard. There is a table inside the space but it looks like it's set up for a private late-night poker game or the family's on-site meals and meetings. In other words, it doesn't look like it's there for you. Even though there was no sign anywhere indicating that they had hot food and the lunch meats behind the deli counter looked like they didn't see much action, when I asked the nice gentleman behind the counter if he had any BBQ, he did indeed. Ribs and pulled pork. We got one of each. Ribs turned out to be a pork rack with a container of sauce on the side. The sauce was closer to sweet and sour sauce in taste and consistency. The ribs had decent flavor to them but were not fall-off-the-bone tender. They didn't fight too hard to get off the bone either, though. The pulled pork ended up being a sandwich. The pork was tasty but there wasn't enough of it compared to the large and partially stale bun. The coleslaw was creamy and fresh but I'm also fairly certain it wasn't homemade. I can't fault them too much for the food. As the draw to them comes from the fact that they are in the middle of nowhere, the problem with being in the middle of nowhere is you don't get many customers. It's not like the smoker was on (or even in view). I can't fault them for the supply/demand logistics of sporadic customers for a product that takes hours to prepare. But I can fault them for the price. We paid too much, in my opinion. A rack of ribs, one underwhelming sandwich, and a bottle of soda came to $23. I don't know what cost what since there's no itemized receipt. But the draw for you, I'd imagine, if you've read all of this, is saying that you drove to the middle of nowhere Mississippi, to a shack called Betty Davis, for some BBQ. And that's a worthy quest, no matter what I thought of my meal. Go for it.

As far as the produce goes, I'd be comfortable buying the peppers, but the rest (on the day I went) were old, some moldy and had a leathery skin appearance and brown bananas. There were cactus leaves, fresh banana leaves and peppers in the cooler. I purchased a couple of poblano peppers for $1.35. I can't find them in Kroger and Walmart has had them in the past, so it's hit or miss finding them when I want them. These were shiny and had no pitted skins. There is a vast selection of herbs and spices, in all forms, rough chopped, minced, tea bag and fresh (wilted today but they are probably generally fresher). As far as the can goods, such as peppers, tomatoes and black beans, they are cheaper at Walmart and for the same brand name. I was really taken aback by the price of a 4 lb bag of regular sugar (no unique brandname, the same as in other stores), they had it priced at $4.19. I did my grocery shopping across the road at Kroger when I left here and I paid $1.89 for 4 lb sugar. The butcher shop area had a rather large selection of meats, ranging from mystery (mystery to me as I didn't recognize the cut and I don't know Spanish well enough to know what the placards said it was) to preseasoned diced meats. I plan to come back for the thin sliced beef to make jerky. It was cut thinner than the butcher at Gardner's could do for me. There were fresh baked breads and buns but no pricing. I will probably grab a bag of buns when I come back for the beef. There are also non-grocery items, such as, cooking vessels, grill for stovetop use, nik-naks, lighters and such.
