Gift Tips

  • Order the St. Louis ribs — they’re frequently praised for falling off the bone and are a safe bet for a BBQ-focused gift outing.
  • Try the brisket and bring extra napkins; guests often enjoy the smoky bark and Texas-style brisket flavor.
  • Save room for banana pudding — it’s mentioned as a memorable dessert and a nice way to finish a meal.
  • If you visit in person, mention Regina or say hello to Mrs. Mary Gatlin when present — staff and owners are known for warm, family-style hospitality.
  • Order the house sausage or spicy sausage for a flavorful smoked meat option that stands out from the usual barbecue plates.
  • If you want something different from barbecue, the burgers and smoked wings are worth a look.
