"Best BBQ I had on my trip! Was only passing through Columbus to find a place to eat. Little do I know that I'll be tasting the best rib tips I've had so far! To think that I have been trying a few other highly rated BBQ places in nearby states, this ranked 1st on my list. Don't forget the sides, they match well with the meat! They were very friendly and accommodating to customers too! Highly recommended! Will definitely come back if I have the chance."

"Most amazing rib tips I’ve ever eaten. Sexy! Yes, sexy ribs… nice and smoky, tender, juicy. Pulled pork is simply awesome. The smoked beans (side) are the best I’ve tried. You have to try it, but not alone… a meal like these are too good not to share!"

"I called 15 mins before opening in the hopes I could get in and out. The service was amazing and the price point and portion size was amazing. I loved the meat without sauce and the sauce is nc style bbq vinegar based sauce. It was amazing everytime im in the area I will hit up. They definitely smoked the ribs and grilled not restaurant style electric smoke. I think in the area they are the best if you ask me. Highly seasoned and smoked. The customer service is amazing!!!!"

"I liked the food here! Purchased the large rib tip plate and pulled pork sandwich. Service was nice and helpful as well as fulfilled quickly. I paid a Total $25.59. Only one concern however. I was told by the server the total was $23.20 and I used my debit card. Yet, however, a $25.59 total came to my debit card notification. Apparently, a 10% tip was charged. Now, I do tip as a customer, but I'm disturbed because that is not honest business when I did not press the button for a tip. I'd consider returning but I will use cash from now on."

"First time trying it, and it was excellent. You get more than your money's worth. The rib tips were definitely a 10 out of 10. I also have to point out the great customer service will definitely make this place a routine stop."

"This was my first time trying both rib tips and this food place, and I can honestly say 10/10, would try again! I ordered the large rib tips snack for just $10, and it was well worth it. The meat was incredibly tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Every bite had that rich, smoky goodness that keeps you coming back for more. For a first-time experience, this spot definitely set the bar high! If you love BBQ or just want a great meal at a great price, this is a must-try. I’ll definitely be back for more!"

"I have been living in Columbus for a few years now and had yet to try this place. But I had heard so many great things about it. I finally had the opportunity to go. When I saw this little building with cars all over the parking lot and the smell of smoke in the air I knew this was going to be a great experience! When I go to any barbecue place, my standard orderis a rib tip plate. I got a large rib tip plate with baked beans and slaw. The service was friendly, and the portion was generous. On top of that, I did not have to wait long for my plate. The meat was well seasoned, juicy, smoky, and tender. It came with sauce on the side. Oddly enough, I did not care for the sauce by itself that much (it was fine; I’m just not the biggest fan of “vinegar-y” sauces) but when you put it on the meat, the flavors complement each other so well! I always taste the meat without sauce and I could have eaten it just like that! But that sauce adds a whole different layer to it. That plate was so good, it was nothing but bones in 15 minutes! This is some really great barbecue and if you are ever in Columbus looking for some, they are definitely one of my top picks!"
