Order up some flavorful barbecue and prepare to chow down.

Google Maps/Artemis Byerly You can order a sandwich, a tray (which comes with barbecue, slaw, and hush puppies), or a plate (which comes with your choice of French fries or slaw, or beans and hush puppies).

Or, order your meat by the pound. One thing for sure is it’s all cooked to perfection, no matter how you have it served!
