The food here was amazing. My whole family loved what they had. Pulled pork sandwich, brisket, Mac n Cheese, mashed potatoes, baked beans which tasted like chili, and even the cornbread was good. Don't normally like cornbread but this was texture of cake with a hint of sweetness. Even the fries were well seasoned. Has both a full service sut down section and a counter order quick serve section which was pretty unique as well to meet multiple use cases. Great experience foe the whole family.

This is a hidden gems, one I want to gate keep but it soo good I won't! My hubby and I will drive to get their Peime rib which is only served on weekends! Its worth every penny. No other steak house in SD has compared to this delicious heavenly steak! I dream about it haha!

Great Brisket and Loaded Potato! Always have Live Music when we go usually on Saturdays. Great Food and a Country feel to it.

Had the Brisket Tacos , Excellent, the brisket was so tender and juicy and nicely garnished with chopped lettuce , tomato ,onion and green or red salsa . The salsa had great flavor. Pastrami sandwich was also Excellent. Super tender and flavored pastrami on bread that was buttered and toasted . Super tasty sandwich . We had a large group and everyone was Very Satisfied with their meals .

If you are looking for a tasty BBQ spot, Bad To The Bone Is it. I typically order the tri-tip plate every time I visit because it is so good and the meat is tender. Today we added the Tallow fries with bacon and cheese. It did not disappoint. Probably the tastiest dish I have ever had for a topped/loaded fry dish. But overall, everything on the menu is good. Another great addition to mention, they have dog friendly patio seating .
