We are committed to sourcing the highest quality grass-fed beef, southern fried fish, and the freshest produce we can get our hands on. Our Farm-to-Table barbecue is cooked low and slow over locally harvested pecan wood fires and combines tried and true smoking techniques as well as new ideas born from our trendy team. We are open 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily.

  • When will I ever learn that putting tarter sauce with your favorite fish plate probably will prevent your happiness at the dating polls? Sorry about that guys it's just the kid in me. But maybe theirs hope for me come Thanksgiving when my favorite dessert is pecan pie?

  • The food was okay. Meat didn't have that good smoked taste you would expect. Mac and cheese was great. Service was very slow, but it was busy. Our server was extremely friendly and charming. The restaurant building was rustic and pleasant, fun atmosphere. Overall it did the job but I wouldn't go out of my way to visit again.

  • my boyfriend and I came here while we were driving through. Everything was so good, we got a 3 meat plate with Ribs, chopped brisket, and jalapeño cheddar smoked sausage. For our sides we got the spicy fried green beans, and fried okra. The ribs were BOMB, they were probably the best we’ve ever had. They were about an inch thick, and super juicy, we didn’t even feel the need for bbq sauce on them. The sausage and brisket were just as good! The fried spicy green beans were so good!! The ribs were so good we had to get some to go!

  • Food was delicious, and the tea wasn't bitter - I didn't even need to add sugar to the unsweetened tea I ordered. But many of the tables had resident flies. It's coming into summer so that might not be a concern if you visit during cold weather.

  • Outstanding lunch. We really enjoyed the fish, the appetizers (green beans and fries), and the chili. But the big hit was the smoky bbq sauce. Great place to grab a meal!

  • The food is out standing! Huge fluffy baked potato, the sweet tea is the perfect sweetness without being syrup, wait staff is attentive and polite, and the brisket was killer! Clean, neat, good food and good atmosphere!

  • Been traveling 40 miles for over 3 years, from Texas to Durant, OK to eat here or get takeout ribs. Service & food as great as day 1. Wife really likes their slaw & corn on the cob (you get a whole ear of corn) but any veggies I have tried has tasted like they were grown in their garden and picked that morning. I got the 3-meat plate and picked polish sausage, chicken breast and pulled pork. Not a hint of fat on them. I always take home at least 1 rack of ribs (LOVE THEM). Must have BBQ!

  • Good small town diner vibes, friendly service, good BBQ. Spicy BBQ sauce was on point. Brisket was a little dry but still cleared my plate. Definitely recommend if you like southern BBQ

  • This was the best food I’ve eaten in Durant. It’s amazing. Atmosphere is fun, decor is simple & a bit rustic, staff is friendly. I went in with a group of people and we where attended to quickly. Staff had every order perfect. The food portions are HUGE so if your a light eater I suggest the kids portion. You will not be disappointed. The smoked turkey was delicious. The brisket amazing and the vegetables were yummy!! Location is easy to find. Parking may be tricky when they are busy but it’s be worth the wait
