Had the piglet tails to start - delicious! Then the 3 meat combo (pulled pork , brisket & sausage ) it was perfect! The variety of sauces they give you for the table are an added bonus! Highly recommend

Jim Connolly

Serves Fried Pickles as spears, which is the only way they should be. Also, they are delicious, the best fried pickles I've ever had.

Dasha Ivashchyshyna

Where do I start? Everything was fantastic! Try their Caesar salad . It comes loaded with a ton of delicious meat. We ordered 2 meals and ended up with a ton of leaf overs that we gladly took home.

I've been here twice. I've only gotten The Cardiac Sam and I'm never disappointed. Look at this shit? The could call it the AIDS sandwich and I'd still order it. Worth the risk of a heart attack.

Chris Parker

The 2-person platter was a good portion, so skip an appetizer . Though, this place is more of a "you're in your 30's, married, and don't wanna go too hard in your nightlife"

Steph Katrina

Excellent BBQ with good smoke rings. Great sauces. All reasonably priced.

Uncle Jesse

Try the Brisket Bacon Swiss - This was so good. Tender brisket and thick bacon with horseradish and Swiss. (via @Foodspotting)

Chuck Therrien

The ribs are fantastic as qekk as everything else. Be sure to try the slaw and potatoes .

Chris Mills

Brisket is great, brown ale is also good. Southern poutine is delicious.

Kate H

The chicken breast is amazing. Smoked and lean, but tender and plentiful.

Vivian

ribs and coleslaw . that's all you need to know.

Jim Connolly

Better BBQ than in the Carolinas, seriously. Also, there are great options for sauces.

Lori Johnson

The unsung heroes on KC's menu are the beans and the collards . Trust me, they are so worth it!!

Ricky Sherrill

Barbecue Sundae & Cornbread is something you have to try.

Jennifer Cook

Good is good but parking is tough.

Bret Agey

The beef brisket with Apple bbq sauce is amazing.

Jake Smith

The pulled pork here (ordered "all the way") leaves a lot to be desired (soggy bun , over-saturated meat). Make sure you choose a sauce you like; I went with the Hickory and the Gold mixed together.

Briana Winslow

Ribs are awesome!
