Also like the twice baked potato casserole and sweet potato fries. I've never had anything but great experiences here!
Our server, Isaiah was one of the best, other servers jumped in to offer refills when they noticed drinks low and the hostess was very friendly. The entire staff was a 10, so absolutely no issues there.
Great place for BBQ, in downtown Champaign. Smokey Brisket & tasty pulled pork. Lots of local craft Brews and friendly service. Reasonably priced. Enjoy.
The cole slaw was a different story. I think that runny, tart, vinegar based slaw is a thing, but it was awful. It tasted bad, and the cut of the cabbage was horrible. If they would have made the cuts long and slender, instead of square, small and chunky, it would have been a different experience.
I've been to both locations a couple of times. Everyone else seems obsessed by this restaurant. And absolutely, their food is VERY good! I really like their ribs and their half chickens. My kids love the mac & cheese. trouble is that they're always out of what everyone raves about. And I see how that's a selling point the first few times. But I've even been there for lunch and they were already out of burnt ends. So perhaps I'll come back another day and change my review to 5 stars. But after going several times and not being able to try the menu items that make them famous, we usually skip it as an option because we know we are almost certainly too late.
Eclectic and trendy place. Seems to always be busy, according to those who took us there. The burnt ends beef brisket sandwich that I had was a ten star sandwich, the meat was cooked perfectly - you can tell they know bbq. My wife had the chicken breast sandwich and it was a little pink, but delicious.
Best in town! The burnt ends are amazing but you have to get there early before they are gone. They have them at lunch and dinner.
Amazing barbecue joint. Highly recommend the sauce flight. The twice baked potato casserole and corn bread are excellent sides. The pulled pork is outstanding and the pork ribs practicality melted in my mouth. I cannot wait to try burnt ends next time! Carolina Red sauce was so good I was stealing my daughter's fries to dip in it! Our server was super friendly!!
