As you walk through the front door, don't be distracted by the menu above the cashier: what you're after is the "Hall of Flame!" It's the wall directly to your left where you'll find all the best barbecue options from around the country.
I had the Tennessee style baby back ribs with (and without) Kelly's secret barbecue sauce. They were just the right amount of chewy but still tender enough to pull away from the bone. Now while they were pretty tasty on their own with the perfect blend of smoky charred rib and juicy seasoning, his barbecue sauce is finger-licking good!
The dining area is rather small but you can easily see the owners take pride in their business. Even the bathroom is well-kept and practically fit for a luxury hotel.
There is one major problem with this place though: the dining table didn't have a roll of paper towels. After all, once you finish licking that delicious sauce off of your fingers, you can't just walk around with slobber all over your hands. Once this place adds some southern music tracks for the background music, you won't find a better barbecue in the upper midwest!
I can't wait to eat here when I visit Aberdeen again.
P.S. Don't forget to grab a toothpick on your way out!

The ribs were excellent but the prices were way too high for this area. I was the only one in the place but it took so long for my order to be filled as they were working on a to-go order for 2 guys who came in as I was waiting. The cashier was very friendly and her husband was working the kitchen, they are the owners. I just can't see frequenting this place due to the high prices.

This has to be the worst service I have ever experienced. Half way through the ordering the person @ the counter stops & starts watching Roger rabbit on the TV. The ribs were twice the cost of any ribs I have ever purchased, that is my fault. It took 30 minutes to get the order that was pre-cooked!
Don't know how they can stay in business.

Closed in February or at least not open on Monday. Disappointed, cause it looked like a fun place to try during our Aberdeen visit. Easy to find.

GREAT RIB TIPS!!!! Best ever, I keep telling myself I'm going to try other items on the menu, but when I open my mouth to order.....it always comes out RIB TIPS!
Fries and greens are awesome too!
