THE ORIGINAL Q SHACK is a must-visit for BBQ lovers! 😍 I went for the three-meat platter and was blown away by the brisket - perfectly seasoned and tender, just like Texas BBQ should be! The pulled pork was solid, but I found the sausage a bit underwhelming.

The collard greens had a nice vinegar-forward flavor that I loved, while the jalapeño deviled eggs were a delightful surprise!

Service was quick, and the outdoor seating with live music added to the casual vibe. I’ll definitely be returning for those fall-off-the-bone ribs! 🍖✨
