  I'm a bit of a BBQ snob...was raised in North Carolina so I also have some regional biases going on, but I got to say I was impressed.  I went in thinking the brisket would be good but the pulled pork would be mushy and tasteless, but I kept an open mind and found I actually preferred the pork.  Not that the brisket was bad...I just really liked the pork.  The owner knows how to impart smoky flavor, though the brisket and my wife's chicken was a bit dry.  I found the sides kind of lacking too (Where's the corn bread!).  Service was very prompt, and I even liked that the owner/smoker came out and made sure everyone was enjoying their meals.  I did enjoy myself and a few more attention to details (like maybe some more sauce choices) and this would be a top-notch Q-joint.

  Bring your pants with the extra belt loops because the portions are gigantic and the food is really good.
  
  This locally-run joint is straight up down home: paper plates, plastic forks and styrofoam cups.
  
  But the food is made to order, and the family that owns it clearly is vested in the operation. We scarfed down 3 gigantic plates of food...plus dessert, while we chatted with the locals. Just a great, friendly place in New Harmony.
