Had to stop by when in Marion! The meat is amazing as are the sides! Take the time to order and pick up or use the picnic table for an impromptu picnic.

Pulling up I noticed the smell- oooh, smoked meats. I want my BBQ places to be, well, not fancy, and to smell like slow-smoked meat. Give me good food and a table, and I'm fine. There are a few picnic tables outside, and three or four small tops inside. Service was great, prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity. And oh, the quality- my ribs looked perfect, and the taste lived up to that impression. Deep smoke flavor, a perfect crust, pulling off the bone with just a little tension. No sauce needed, but they have a couple of very good sauces. The mustard was my favorite, but just barely. I also got baked beans. Thick, sweet, tangy, yum. I got a brisket sandwich to go, for lunch at work. They packed the bun and meat separate, and gave me more little sauces. They know their business. The brisket was tender, full of flavor, and gone in a heartbeat. Only knock is the tea wasn't very sweet. I'll be back. I think they do catering, too.
