"This is the brisket that is moist tasty with not too much fat in a portion that will last you for two meals. This takes the blue ribbon easily from other places to try to do it as well."

"Hot fried chicken sandwich is best I’ve ever had. Hot but not just for the sake of it, it’s insanely tasty. Easily outweighs how bad the fries are (soggy every time)"
