    Menu says cream corn. My "cream corn" had a spicy 🌶 taste. It was hot. Not regular cream corn!!

    Our order taker could not figure out what a 1/3rd lb was. So she entered 3/4 lb brisket. Then only gave the choice of lean or fatty. Better if you all had 'mixed'. Also asked for 3 ribs. She did not know how to convert tht into ounces. Asked if I wanted pickles and onions. All I got was 12 lb fatty brisket, no ribs, no pickles...

    The new kiosk and lack of enthusiasm behind the counter made this visit a complete joke. Did y'all change the recipes on your sides? Potato salad and creamed corn are definitely different.

    Okay, so I was hungry and had wanted a sandwich since yesterday, when I popped by to pick up a few things for the house. Mia who assisted me, was a great help. The order touch screen was not working well, and didn’t provide clear details. I started once and cancelled. Started again, and it was not clear on building a sandwich combo, if slaw was an add on or a side. Chips were not pictured and I was not able to upsize my drink from 20 oz to 32. Also, the sides in general were not easy to locate, view or add on this system. Even when ordering Mia had to make corrections. The brisket was great. The slaw was a great add on to the sandwich. The bag of chips was huge. All this is good to enjoy as a sandwich combo was over $25 for one person, with the extra brisket on the order. And while smokey and moist the brisket was not piping hot which would have taken this over the top. But overall far better than many others (see review for Pure Country in Boerne) was a great event. So service 4⭐️for the order system. Food a 4⭐️because of temp. Atmospher was a 5🌟
