As a group of three, my friends and I decided that getting the 3 Meat Combo would be the best idea. Then, by making assertive decisions and discussing choices of meats and sides, we arrived at ordering Hot Links, Beef Brisket, and Ribs for our 3 meats with Coleslaw and Mac 'N' Cheese for our 2 sides.

In short, I thought the macaroni and cheese was okay with the cheese being a tad grainy, the coleslaw was good, and the cornbread was also good. Unfortunately, a single cornbread split among three people was not much cornbread to go around.

Eating the beans by themselves was nothing special, but the beans together with the provided barbecue* sauce tasted good.

Next up: the meats. The hot link was tasty and not too spicy. My friend Michael, however, didn't like the texture (a bit crumbly).

We drove to a nearby beachfront to enjoy our lunch.
The brisket was soft and good. I also noted that the sauce was tangy and a bit spicy, though I'm unsure if that's referring to the sauce used on the brisket or the barbecue sauce provided on the side. The rib had a variety of tastes and textures.

Overall, all the meats were good. However, I thought the brisket would be the best and saved my second brisket for last. In hindsight, the ribs were probably best. Interestingly, my friend Steph might have agreed with my initial thought (that the brisket was better than the ribs). 1:44PM PT

*I first wrote "barbeque" then changed it to "barbecue" and then did a double-take before looking the word up and realizing it could be either, though "barbecue" seems to be the standard English spelling; it is also the way I generally spell it.
