Reviews

Really good portions, fresh food, made to order. Chefs took the time to put the burger and the BBQ sandwich in sandwich grill press. Nice touch, and it kept the sandwiches from falling apart in your hands. Fries were on point-fresh and hot. Wait staff was attentive. Good 'cue joint. Show 'em some love.

Food was excellent. Highly recommend. Finally was able to take my wife to Checkered Flag BBQ in Salisbury. We live 45 minutes away in Charlotte and it was near lunch time when we got in the area, so we decided to go here. The food was excellent. We both got a BBQ sandwich, split a fry and I ordered a hotdog. No, I didn't need it. The picture looks funny as I was attempting to split the footlong in half. Didn't realize it was a footlong until it came to the table. There's a picture of a "hotdog man" on the window, which prompted me to order one. The hotdog was so good that after my wife took one bite, she proceeded to take 2 more. The BBQ sandwiches were just the right size. Ample BBQ and slaw on both. The fries were hot and fresh. Oh, and the sweet tea was outstanding. I guarantee, we'll be back.
