I came back to see if my review was posted. I tried before and it was not. I saw the the rating somehow was 3 stars. If I would have starred it it would be "0" 've never posted anything before but I thought this merited it. Cousin and I weekly go to rib places everywhere and competitions. He lives close by to the restaurant, had heard good and bad about it. He went by himself and said it was the worst he's ever had. We have a "3 strike" rule where if the same place was ever bad we would NEVER go back again. Because he lived close by he had his 3 strikes/ If I wanted to go I would have to go on my own. I tend to feed my 2 other co-workers (prison). I got the rib and chicken combo for 4 to go. I went in the day before and placed my order so it would be ready the next early afternoon. It was supposed to come with plates and utensils (did not). The meal barely fed 3 let alone 4. I could tell my co-workers were holding back so all three of us could eat. The sides (beans and slaw) were in small styrofoam cups, just one of us could have eaten the one cup each. Beans were generic sauce bland. Slaw everyone took a small scoop each and went untouched after. Ribs and chicken had very little meat on both. Both were very DRY. Our 1st impression was they were left over from the night before and re-heated for us the next day. The ribs were basically burnt tiny jerky on a bone w/ spiced ketchup. The 3 of us agree w/o the 3 strike rule to NEVER go back again. We agreed w/ my cousin. *The 3 of us bbq at work at least 3 times out of our 5 day week. Many of the prisoners could do better. I decided not to cook that day, I should have. Not one thing was good on our order. If you want better offering for buck for Texas BBQ go to the one on Otto Cir.
Pros: Close by
Cons: Order not as presented on menu, little meat on ribs and chicken, dry /burnt. Small portions. Sauces very generic.
