This is legit BBQ! That statement is food based not sauce based. If you want to have great BBQ, look no further. Follow the two rules, try before you buy, and hold onto your fork. Tried the pulled chicken, turkey ends, and jerky chicken. Also green beans, Mac and cheese, beans and pinto beans. All good. But save room for the cobbler.

This place SLAPS!! The food is amazing. Best Mac and cheese I have had at a restaurant. The pinto beans were delicious . I had the jersey chicken and my husband had the turkey tips. They were flavorful by themselves, but when you add the sauce... PURE MOUTH EXPLOSION! Everything we ordered was above par. Will served us and he was very nice and a great salesman. I ordered way more than I intended and had to take food home cause I was stuffed. Will definitely be back.

I ate here 4 times this week! I couldn’t decide which sides to get so I got them all! The corn is fire not your average corn taste! The Mac is Always mac’n, beans flavorful, green beans super good. My ribs were so tender hella flavor. Customer service was excellent all staff very nice and friendly. The best part is you get to try whatever you want before you buy it! Best BBQ in Cincinnati hands down!

I have not had this great an experience with a restaurant in so long. I'll be sure to return. They have one rule: you don't buy until you try. They put before me all of their different sides and their peach cobbler, and all of them were amazing! I'll for sure be going back for their mac and cheese and peach cobbler. And the pulled pork was amazing. It didn't need any sauce to be super moist and delicious. Really nice and great people working it as well!

The location used to be a sports bar, and they're still setup like one. They have live music on Friday nights starting around 8pm. My wife and I ordered a half pound of pulled pork, with sides of baked beans, and green beans which came to about 25 with tip included. They had just finished a photo shoot for some of their sides, so instead of trashing them they offered them to us. Altogether, we ended up with the pulled pork, baked beans, green beans, mac and cheese, coleslaw, and potato salad. The pork had mouthwatering smoky flavor without sauce, but they also offer regular and spicy BBQ on the side. The green beans had shredded smoked turkey leg which added a unique savory flavor to the green beans. The baked beans were deliciously sweet and thick. The coleslaw had the perfect sweet/tangy balance, and our mac & cheese was deliciously cheesy. In addition to the flavor, their customer service was impeccable. They were friendly, cheerful, and easy to chat with.
