Excellent food. Well I spoke too soon, the food today was downright nasty, the pork and the chicken tasted like it had been run through A vat of hotsauce, neither was juicy both very dry, husband ordered his favorite junk in the trunk burger he bit into it and spit it out it was raw on the inside. Called the restaurant and spoke with A very nice girl who said she was the manager and was very sorry our food was nasty and stated they had 3 new people in the kitchen and they must have made the pork and chicken with too much dry rub and it must have been the bottom of the pan and that's why it was so dry and nasty. Being the cook was supposedly new they might want too make sure whomever it is learns too cook A hamburger instead of plopping it on A grill flipping it and calling it done. When the meat is ice cold still it's not done but hey let's just put 2 cops of super wet coleslaw on top and nobody will be any wiser. Normally this is the best BBQ place I've had in the area but I'm thinking it's time too find another BBQ place. Wonder how poor Lil Mikey's BBQ is.

Back Porch Smokehouse The Back Porch Smokehouse is a small, unassuming BBQ establishment attached to the movie theater in Robinson. In addition to BBQ, they have an ample selection of steaks, chicken, and burgers. I decided to give the brisket plate a try. While the brisket was tasty, it was quite a bit different from the traditional Texas-style brisket I’m accustomed to eating. The brisket was “chunky” versus “sliced”. The sides of potatoes and cole slaw were adequate, but nothing special. I’d probably make a different selection from the menu next time.

The staff is wonderful! I’m a vegetarian. So, I order their salads, wraps, and sides (likely prepared alongside their meaty offerings). The wraps, lettuce, pickle, onion, green pepper, and tomato are always fresh tasting. They’re happy to work with me while I place my intricate (annoying) order. Wait time is always appropriate or surprisingly quick! There’s an exciting array of side options, which are almost all prepared in their delicious signature seasoning. Great option to a meal before or after catching a movie at Eagle Theater! 😉

We used to go here a few years ago, and it wasn't too bad. Then they changed the menu and service. We've been there twice since they did this, and will not be back. We went with a group of 12, on Thursday evening. They were in chaos the entire time. We waited about 20 minutes for our order to be taken. Then another 30 or so to get our food. Then some orders were wrong, some not complete, etc. Now, to the food. 4 people got hamburgers, guess they forgot to order anything on them, cause they came just plain dry hamburgers. Then they didn't get their frys, had to wait on them to be cooked. 3 got the pulled pork, which was good, but some of the sides were not very tasty. And all said a roll, cornbread or texas toast was needed. One person got the loaded nachos, and they were very good. I got the special of the night, prime rib manhattan--sounds good right--I could barely eat it. First the gravy was way to salty, and it just over powered the entire thing so that I couldn't even taste the meat or potatoes. I should have sent it back, but I was very hungry, and didn't want to wait another 30 minutes. I was still hungry when I left as I couldn't eat much of it. Our total bill came to $152 which comes out to about 13.50 per person, and 4 got cheeseburgers, and 1 child a hotdog. The only good thing, he did take 25% off our bill because of the...

Best BBQ place in town.

I was kinda of skeptical at first because there were bad reviews, but I realized they were from years ago and went for it.

I love the look and feel of the place. The food is amazing!! The waitresses will also do their very best to make sure you receive the best service. If you're unhappy simply tell them and they will do their best to fix it. I love it! If one thing doesn't catch your taste buds, you can bet something else on the menu will. Their choices are never ending.

My favorite appetizers: High Piled Nachos with Pork (ask for more sauce, you'll want it;p) Fried Pickles Breaded Mushrooms Jalapeño Poppers Corn Nuggets Smothered Fries (I prefer Bacon or Pork) (But unless you plan on filling up on appetizers make sure to ask for the HALF order)

My favorite dishes include the: Full Meal Salad with a hint of Buffalo Sauce & dressing Steph's Spicy Burger Kitchen Sink Burger (sounds wayyyy better than it sounds) 8oz/12oz Prime Rib Half/Full slab of ribs Fried Fish And I haven't even tried it ALL yet!

You can count barely being able to get back up from being so full. Honestly, I wasn't too fond of this place in the past (2 or 4 years ago) but danggggg they definitely have me hooked now. Management has change for the best! It's definitely...
