A friend posted a picture of a brisket he was smoking for Labor Day, and since my invitation got lost in the mail, I decided I'd need to secure my own tasty meat. Since I live less than a mile from this joint and they have a drive-thru, I thought I'd give 'er a go.
For a holiday, I wasn't sure what to expect as far as a line. I arrived at 11:40 AM and from the time I got there, to the time I drove off, it took 19 minutes total. Not terrible, especially for all you Whataburger freaks who wait an hour for a burger, but I digress.
I opted for the moist brisket, and a side of macaroni, cole slaw, and creamed corn. The bark on the brisket was a little tough. The flavor was good, but not the best I've ever had. The macaroni was good. The cole slaw was a little bland, but I love how thinly it's shredded. The creamed corn was very smoky/black peppery. I wasn't offered or given any bread, pickles or onions. I was given a choice of BBQ sauce: sweet, spicy or tangy. I got tangy and it was not good lol. But, good meat shouldn't need sauce in my humblest of opinions.
Whether or not you'll like this place probably depends on where you usually go. If Bill Miller is your goto, this is probably a step up. If you usually endure a muggy August day in line at a smoky trailer for an hour for the perfect piece of meat, this will probably leave you missing your regular spot.
Overall, pretty decent for a grocery store's drive-they BBQ, but won't be my first pick.
