"When you walk into this Northeast BBQ institution, you’ll feel like you’ve got sucked into a 1960’s farmhouse time warp that you’ll never want to get out of. With long picnic tables and large wood benches, it can work for group dinners or as an after-work hangout spot when you don’t mind showing your coworkers your messy side. The extensive menu, like their fatty Memphis ribs, has everything from pulled pork, smoked kielbasa, and brisket by the pound to a combo platter that can include up to four meat choices. They also have a complimentary pickle and peppers bar on the side. So pile them on, find a bench, and be happy that you found a place that saved you from sweating through your favorite The Weeknd shirt in front of a grill. " - candis mclean
