John Brown's Grill

The food itself was on par and good as usual. But it's just something about the staff that made you feel so unwelcome and like you are a nuisance for even being there. Hope my next experience on my stop by is a lot better.

Out and about with mom and sister. This is a neat little store out in the country on outskirts of King. They have great pimento cheese and chicken salad. I had the 2 hot dog combo today, very good. Check it out, if you are ever up this way!

Unintentional Therapy... I Stopped by this Gem in the Middle of the Countryside a few years ago right before the Pandemic Craziness started and have been wanting to head back that way. Talk about a great combo of Store and Grill. I absolutely loved every minute of my visit and needed it. I had started out just driving and listening to some George Strait trying to clear my head. Rather down and full of emotions of things. It was a dreary fall day with cold intermittent rain. As I wound through the country I saw Deer and Turkey out in the beautiful scenery. Next thing I see is a charming place with a full parking lot. I needed to take a break and stretch my legs. I entered and though very busy at the time, I was greeted at the door with a smile and Welcome to John Browns. I wondered around looking at the endless goodies and eventually after seeing the many patrons ordering plate after plate, Not to mention the aroma of fresh grilled food. I decided to order a plate. I ordered the Pulled pork with Fries and Hushpuppies. It was quick and before I knew it, I was out in the truck digging in. I wish I had the Pictures I took that evening, but it was delicious. Everything soothed my soul for a moment. My troubles were void. The pain and sadness I had just minuets before were nearly gone. I may have been emotionally eating, but it was therapy for my soul for a moment. The whole experience that was. The BBQ was perfect, Fries, Perfect, and The Hushpuppies... Oh my. After I had eaten that wonderful plate, I took back to my travels. But with a feeling of joy and a full belly. I plan to visit again soon.

Just go. We went for the hot sauce and maybe some ice cream but left with a $130 purchase. Fun atmosphere with uncommon flavors. Worth trying out! Update Jan, 22: still haven't made it through Da'Bomb sauce....and never will 😩
