Wife I decided to stop in and try it while driving in the Ozark's, we are very glad we did. I had the pulled pork which was excellent!, my wife had the ribs and she says they are best she has ever had. The place was clean the staff friendly and the service excellent. The owner, Doc, was very friendly and explained had he came to open the place and his plans for a stage plus live music once we get past the virus. Doc even hooked us up with a free dessert after lunch (picture below). The menus is huge and has way more than just BBQ so it probably has something for everyone in your party, we will be back for sure.

Great environment. Everyone is so friendly. Food is great, great ribeye steak. Anything smoked is on point. The brisket had a nice bark on it. I'll definitely be back, try some big shrimp next!

Delicious pile of rib tips, and some of the most perfectly cooked fries I've ever had. The potato salad was good, but it was mustard based, so keep that in mind. Ribs came out just rubbed, with no sauce, but 2 styles of sauce were on the table to get them all wetted up and awesome. Out of the way, and off the beaten path, but if you're in the area it's worth a stop.
