My father wanted bbq for his 62nd birthday, I had spent approx. $160 on food, coleslaw was great, loved the pulled pork, the fries the sausages, however the brisket, beans and ribs were extremely salty. The family ended up kind of just picking at their plates and we ended up having so many leftovers.

This was surprising as the restaurant clearly has great reviews. It makes me wonder if I'm missing something or if they're actually suppose to be that salty. We are by no means sensitive to salt but it felt like it was just caked in salt.
