I came across this place while fishing on a nearby river. I seriously thought it was just an old shack until I saw someone come out of the place. The BBQ is some of the best I have ever had - the meat is so tender it is unbelievable. I gave it 4 stars because he does not really have a great sauce - it looks like he uses over the counter BBQ sauce - and he uses white bread instead of buns. I am also pretty sure the place could be closed by fire/safety or the health department at any moment.

if you get it to go, be ready for him to hand you a piping hot tin-foil ball of meat.
