“ Thank you, Google, for bringing this place to my attention. I was recommended, by the girl behind the counter, to get The Cadillac Burrito. I'm so glad I did. TBH, it too my brain a couple bites to stop looking for the Mexican notes and recognize this was a BBQ burrito. Once this shift happened, it was a party in my mouth. Yowza!!! They have a number of different sauces, all of which were freaking delicious. I particularly liked the mustard sauce. I even thought the prices were reasonable, for a BBQ place. Anyway, stop reading this and get over there and have some awesome BBQ. Your tastebuds can thank me later. ”
“ Friendly & helpful employees. Delicious chopped brisket sandwich (we added crispy onions) & baked beans. Several flavorful BBQ sauces to choose from with great descriptions to help you decide - ultimately ended up purchasing a bottle of their "Georgia" sauce to bring back home with us. ”
“ Loved it! Great staff. Porkbelly and brisket were exceptional. Tried all the sauces, liked the spicy and the mustard based ones best. Ordered the Mac and cheese advertised as Applewood smoked, sadly it was not. ”
“ These fine folk catered a birthday party for us and the food was a hit! The brisket and chicken were juicy and tender, and mac & cheese creamy and delicious. Laura and the staff were easy to work with, and the food was ready on time (even if we weren't!). ”
“ Took a gamble and tried this place again after a disappointing experience awhile back. It was a response from the owner that prompted me to give it another shot. That and someone I know had just got a Caddilac earlier and reminded me how good it is. The Cadillac I got this time was more like it. I will come back because the hot mama sounds too good to resist. ”
“ As a native Texan, this is the only barbecue joint in town worthy of the title. Everything is delicious, but the house mustard should be bottled and sold around the country. ”
“ Great food! The smokehouse catered a wedding for us. The food was not ready when we arrived but shortly after they said it would be. It was worth the wait. The brisket with burnt ends was excellant. The Kansas city sauce was very good. The shredd chicken was good. The beans and pork were perfect. The mac cheese was very good. It could use a little more cheese but still very good. The coleslaw was good. They helped us load everything into our truck. The staff was kind and attentive. They provided extra utensils and supplies. We will be back! ”
“ This was smokin good!!! See what I did there. Found this little gem as we were Nomading our way back from Mazatlan MX and pulled over with our trailer and truck for a bite to eat. So flavourful. I had the charred ends meal. Nom nom. We didn’t have any leftovers. That’s indicative of how nummers our meals were. Take out or dine in. ”
