Walk in for lunch, stood at the entrance following the “wait here to be seated” sign…nealy all wait staff ignored us, walking right by as if we didn’t exist???
Finally, the drive thru worker seated us and we STILL had to wait for the waitress…
When we finally got waited on, Wednesday luch with not many customers, we saw only 2 waitresses on duty.
After taking our order, it took unusually long wait for our food.
I ordered brisket plate, wife got smoked sausage.
My brisket, just 3 slices, appeared dry and is most definitely was the most driest I ever got any where. Although flavor was there, still not worth the $18+
Wife’s smoked sausage on the other hand was tasty and moist.
My cold slaw side was plain as it could be…I’ve had worst but, nothing to write home about.
Wife’s potato salad was also tasteless, she didn’t even eat galf of it.

First time visit. Got 3 meat plate to sample all! Chicken was very good. Juicy and great flavor. Ribs went well with the sauce and were cooked about perfectly. The brisket had good flavor but was dryer than I like. I like a moist juicy brisket. I had to dip this in the sauce. If you like the lean ones this is your spot. Had potato salad that tasted just like potatoe salad and baked beans. The beans were very good and flavorful. Not overly sweet.
The surprise for me was the hush puppies. They were the absolute best ones I have ever had. Very good.
Friendly staff and very clean restaurant.

Food was ok. My husband and mom didn’t care much for the onion rings, hot dogs, and barbecue sandwich. The hotdog bun was soggy as well as the barbecue sandwich bun.

This place is awesome. If you’re looking for a quick bite in the area, highly recommend. I’m from out of town but this is probably some of the best bbq I’ve had. Very fair prices for very good eats. Half rack for $23 and 2 sides, really can’t get better. Sides were very decently sized, came home with plenty of leftovers.
Service was amazing! Very sweet waitress, and refilled drinks before we had to ask.
Only negative was no onions rings or chicken tenders, they had run out, but we also came an hour before close.
Definitely check this place out if you’re in the mood for BBQ!

$40 bucks down the drain.
(They charge extra if paying with credit)
The beef brisket plate is a joke for $18, dry and wasn’t even hot.
Chopped bbq plate was bland.
Onion rings were barely breaded.
Terrible.
Go somewhere else.

Ohh, where to start…
Was very hopeful that their BBQ was good when I saw a smoker outside. At least we can assume they dont buy pre-made meat.
I got BBQ pork platter with potato salad and coleslaw. Wife got BBQ pulled chicken platter with collards and Mac & cheese. We also got the brisket “small plate” to share. Each of the 3 came with hushpuppies.
First and foremost, SALT AND PEPPER… a little seasoning can go a long way. Pork was bland with zero flavor (but at least it wasn’t dry). Potato salad tasted like boiled potatoes and mayo. No flavor to them. Coleslaw was literally chopped cabbage and maybe some mayo also, but no flavor at all. Their house BBQ “grilling sauce” saved the BBQ pork. The pulled chicken looked like they maybe boiled some chicken thighs in liquid smoke. Wife said the collars were good (a few hours later, she quickly changed her mind! Lol). Mac and cheese = bland. Hushpuppies, nothing more than a little fried dough ball. Now after all that, the worst part of it all was the “brisket”. We laughingly called it beef jersey. It was so hard and dry.
The server asked if we wanted to go boxes after eating almost none of the food, we said no thanks. He asked if we enjoyed it. We told him the service was decent and thats about it. I mentioned the hard dry brisket, he said “yeah I saw what it looked like. It looks hard”. I asked why he served it then and he said I dunno.
Unfortunately google won’t let me post photos because I took some so I could share what the beef jerkey, i mean brisket, looked like…
There we go. I think it let me add the photos.

Roland the server deserves raise. Best hype man for a business I’ve seen so far. Food was good and very flavorful. Only downside is the brisket was cold and leathery. The sauce selection saved it. The smokes wings and ribs, great. Kids menu, my son loved the chicken tenders and the seasoned fries are stepped up from the norm. Over all would recommend to anyone and enjoyed the our visit.

The brisket was done to perfection as always. The smoked chicken (leg/thigh) was a bit dry for my liking. The server was polite but not overly engaging. The table was a bit sticky and the floors had a little bit of debit on them but that’s expected. Overall the experience was nice and we will be back again when the appetite for BBQ strikes again.

I have been meaning to try this restaurant for a while now, but I myself am not a huge barbecue fan. My son loves barbecue, so I decided to treat him to lunch, and check out the Checkered Pig.
It had a nice homey feel to it, the hostess was friendly, and our waitress was awesome. I opted for a basic salad while my son ordered the BBQ Pork with hush puppies and onion rings, and we both had a diet soda. My salad was unremarkable, but fresh, and my son really enjoyed his pulled pork platter.
Due to the very friendly atmosphere and comfy family vibe, I would definitely visit again.
Cost before tip $29.52

Ordered the 2 meat dinner with brisket and chopped pork barbecue. I had the baked beans and the collard greens. Hush puppies came with the meal. I should have gotten the slaw instead of the beans. They have some great sauces on the table and the sweet tea was very good. This was my second visit to this restaurant. And I enjoyed both visits.
