Perfect bark, tender as hell, and full of that deep, smoky flavor you only get from someone who knows what they’re doing. The ribs and pulled pork were just as solid—juicy, flavorful, and clearly made with care.
I’m a sucker for good BBQ sides, and theirs don’t disappoint. The cornbread’s legit, the slaw is crisp and tangy, and everything hits like comfort food should.
The vibe is laid-back and local in the best way. I sat out on the tiki-style patio, and even brought my dog—super chill spot. Service was fast and friendly (shoutout to Liz—she was awesome), and the crowd felt like a mix of regulars and newcomers, which is always a good sign.
Bonus points for cold beer, fair prices, and the fact that they actually give back to the community. I’ll 100% be back—this is my new go-to when I’m in Palm City.
