We tried the 1/4 lb platter. With fries and potato salad. The pulled pork was amazing. Great flavor and very tender. The smoked sausage was as good as any smoked sausage I have had in upstate NY. The chicken was also very tender and had a good smoked flavor. The ribs had a lot of flavor and were not over cooked like some places do. The brisket.... Was brisket.... Maybe it wasn't made today which is fine. It tasted more like a roast than a brisket. My wife and I differ on our opinions of BBQ houses. I like to try the meats before I put any sauce on. My wife like it covered beforehand. This place doesn't smother it but does put it on before I got a chance to try the meats. The potato salad was ok but not bursting in flavor. The pieces in it are cut fairly large. It was ok. Fries are fries. A little over salted. But they did have malt vinegar. We might try this place again.

I wondered if it had really been barbecued. I didn't finish it. The ribs were okay, but not enough to make up for the brisket. The only part of the meal I really liked was the broccoli, which had been cooked with bacon. The plate below, with ¼ pound each of ribs and brisket, cole slaw, small corn muffin, and broccoli, was $47 including tax and tip. Price, service, and atmosphere were all acceptable, I have no complaints there. But the food was not good enough to bring me back.

I was the only person in the restaurant (Monday night in winter) and the server was very willing to help. He improvised a hot toddy for me, which they don't have on the menu, and it was very pleasant. Cost was $51, including tax and the toddy ($8), but leaving out tip.

Butcher-shop quality meets pit-master soul! Rating:…read more If you are anywhere near Sayre (or even just passing through on Route 220), do your stomach a favor and pull over. This isn't just "good for Pennsylvania" BBQ--this is legitimate, high-quality smokehouse craft. The Food: Coming from a butcher shop background, these guys clearly know their meat. * The Brisket: I'm picky about brisket, but theirs was rendered perfectly with a beautiful smoke ring. No knife needed. * Pulled Pork: Super juicy. I highly recommend getting it with the Southern Sweet sauce. * The Sides: Don't sleep on the Salt Potatoes (a local staple) or the Sweet Potato Biscuits. The biscuits are a total sleeper hit--slightly sweet, fluffy, and perfect for mopping up extra sauce. The Vibe: It's a classic, no-frills BBQ joint. It's clean, the staff is incredibly "small-town friendly," and you can tell it's a local favorite by how busy the takeout counter stays. There's a nice outdoor area if you want to eat in the fresh air, which is a big plus during the summer. The "Be Aware": They are closed on Sundays and Mondays, so don't make the mistake of driving out here on a weekend whim without checking the calendar! Also, the Burnt Ends sell out fast--if they have them when you walk in, buy them immediately. Verdict: Huge portions, fair prices, and meat that actually tastes like it spent time in a smoker. I'll definitely be back for a full rack of ribs next time.

The order is absolutely filling for 1 person, but it is also great for 2 of us. Chicken leg was smoked perfectly without broken skin, juicy, with flavors. The baby ribs were BBQ with perfect smoke and just falling off the bone. The buffalo mac n cheese has the right amount of spicy and sour to give a good kick. Its coleslaw salad is just as good without saggy of juices. Cost was $27 with tips. P.S. The staff who took our order looks like the all American from Norman Rockwell's painting, great smile and great attitude!

She made us feel VIP the entire evening !!! The Bbq brisket and ribs were delicious and the Mac and potato salads were very tasty. I recommend the corn bread with the maple butter. Lots of sauces to choose from. The meats were a riot of Smokey goodness. If you're in Watkins be sure to stop in. PS. Probably the best most thought out to go packaging I have ever seen. I really appreciated the thought behind it. No plastics, no wax cups. Cardboard with vents so your food doesn't get soggy on the journey home also included a bag to put it all in without asking. Top notch. picture included.

Service: unfortunately the food takes a LONG time after you order. I know I had quite a bit of people in front of me, but 45 minutes is a long time.
