text: This gem is located in a squat brick structure on a grim stretch of North Tryon not where you would expect to find a good restaurant but then again is not that so often the case Better than any road sign is the wafting scent of hickory hanging over the road as you approach I believe I could find this place blindfoldednnIn compliance with the federal regulations regarding BBQ joint decor this place looks as if the crates holding all the old props from Bonanza blew up in the middle of the room and everything lodged in the wallsnnService is superprompt and friendly you can sit and watch the pitmaster doing his thing in the corner and what can I say It is just really good and tasty It is not going to blow your mind but this is a good placennIt makes you wonder why people pay a premium to eat at places like Macs Speed Shop they are good too but at twice the pricennAnyway carry on
