Everything was delicious and you can't beat the amount of amazing food you get for the price. We ordered the Outlaw Platter. Chicken had a great smokey flavor. Mashed potatoes on point. I usually think ribs don't have alot of meat but these were so good. I just recently had BBQ from a chain place and was thinking about this food wishing I was eating here again!

Well this turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Traveling with a friend who told about this place and suggested dinner there. Place is hidden behind the Ford dealership but well worth looking for it. Walking up to the door the aroma draws you inside. Smaller location with ample seating. Menu is a challenge board on the wall. Place your order, choose your sides and you on the way to a great meal. Food was really good here and the women taking our orders was very friendly. With stopping by and trying this place if your traveling on I55.

First off...I love the feel of this Bbq restaurant. Both the inside and outdoor area. It's the kind of place you just expect to get good Bbq food...it looks so inviting...I give them an A+ on vision. The new additions are pretty neat as well. Having a huge game/concert/bar area right next door is a huge plus for patrons of this establishment. I recently went for my second visit to this place. The first time I wasn't too impressed, but I couldn't exactly remember why that was. Well, that was until I went for a second time...and the same exact experience happened. I love brisket, so on my second visit I ordered a big platter of brisket and a sausage. When the woman up front got the brisket out she opened the foil and revealed a brisket completely stuck to the top of the foil! She continued to try and open it and pry the brisket off from the top of the foil...in doing so she was lifting the brisket that was still married to the aluminum foil up in the air...then the brisket fell apart onto the cutting board. I was surprised when the flat and point actually separated as it fell. By this time all of the fibers were an open mess, had there been any moisture...it would have dried out quickly, luckily for them all the moisture was long gone during the cooking process. At this point I'm remembering my first experience...same thing happened. Super dry brisket clinging to the foil. The women now begun to try and cut the brisket...the whole thing just reduced to a stringy mess of mangled brisket jerky. I kindly asked if she'd prefer to get another brisket to try...as it was obvious this one shouldn't have been served...you can see it on her face too...she knew it. She stated this was what the owners had given her to serve. I am astonished...twice! I really want to like this place...but it's not even a question of going there a third time. My brother talks so well about this place and I used to trust his palate...but now I wonder. This wasn't simply a case of brisket sitting around and drying out a touch...brisket can be tough to keep. This is a case where whoever Bbq'd this thing either doesn't know how to do it or doesn't care. You don't go that far over done and serve it by accident. Either you know what's going on with your bbq or you don't...I'm not sure what the case is with Cherry Red Roasters. But if you do in fact know what bbq should be...even remotely...I cannot even come close to recommending this place based on my two experiences. I do just hope I got the only two bad briskets served here...and all the people who love this place are right...you guys and gals cannot be that clueless about bbq. I'm still rooting for this place...but I won't be going back for a very long while.

NONE....no masks, no sanitizer buckets or spray bottles! Very unsanitary in general. We we're starving so we ordered an appetizer and a couple of soft drinks to get something in our bellies before we ordered the main course. Once we seen how unclean the tables, pop machine, and general areas of the dining area were, we looked towards counter area and kitchen equipment and decided not to order any additional food. We paid for our items and left without eating or drinking
