What People Are Saying About Peoples Barbeque

In Short – The space is airy and simple, with high ceilings and metal tables and chairs. For barbecue try the ribs or the chicken, which come with a tangy, vinegary sauce. The barbecue is oak-smoked in an open pit and comes out smoky and juicy. Other options include oxtail, ham hocks, smothered or fried pork chops, fried conch and chitterlings. Side orders are worth special attention, especially the candied yams and the macaroni and cheese.

Mmmm...Tasty
by Dingbats
This is delicious. If I could steal their cook to be my personal chef, boy I would! The stunning flavor cooked into the meat is mouth watering. I still thank my friend every day for showing me this spot. What a delight!
- Pros: Delicious
- Cons: Wait can be a little long

Food for the soul!!
by SylG
Excellent food, each dish well prepared. From the juicy smoked bbq ribs, to the creamy mac and cheese, deliciously caramelized candied yams and toasty cornbread. Clean and simple place. Caring staff. Try the sweet Flip-Flop drink (iced tea/lemonade combo). Large portions! Two can share the lunch special.
- Pros: excellent homestyle cookin'
- Cons: None
