I stopped there about two years ago and was very disappointed.

Been there a bunch. When its good, its very good, but like any other place, it can have its off days. Day in and day out its one of the better places around BUT in the same town, there are two other lesser known places that are dang good: Whitt's and Nash's. Whitt's has my favorite BBQ sandwich of all time and Nash's has some of the best ribs and white sauce marinated chicken I've ever eaten. If you're heading south on I-65, get off at Blount Springs and go to Top Hat on old US 31. It's just dang good BBQ, but you'll have to decide between BBQ and fried catfish - or not - they have a combo!

Big Bob's is the only place in the Huntsville/Decatur area that I've found for ribs. I absolutely love their Mustard Sauce.

Like Pat said they do have their off days but still I've not found anything better locally. I have never heard of Nash's but I have seen Whitt's. Never tried either one.

Ate there twice in one day. Loved the ribs. Pulled pork wasn't my favorite.

I had the opposite experience. I got the ribs and they were dry. My wife got a huge baked potato with pulled pork on top and it was fabulous. In fact, when I make pulled pork at the house we usually serve it on baked potatoes now.
