"My wife and I ordered two slabs of ribs, and they were falling off the bone. Best ribs I've eaten. We would recommend that if you like barbecue and courteous people then Sam's smoke house is a really good place to go."

"Our first time eating here. I had the half slab of ribs with coleslaw and green beans. IT WAS FANTASTIC!!! Coleslaw was perfect. Green beans were cooked and seasoned perfectly. The ribs ( I normally don't care for dry ribs) were wonderful!!! Heck, I used some sauce, but these ribs really stood on their own without it. We will be back in Fayette next Saturday and will more than likely be back then to eat again. ( I am a wingman, and maybe I have to eat those next time.) BTW, my wife ate the pulled pork sandwich with baked beans and cheese tots. She also thoroughly enjoyed her meal."

"I had the smoked wings and Cole slaw. The sauce for the wings was so tasty as well as the wings being tasty and way bigger than others I’ve had lately. Fast service usually worries me but the wings were hot and seemed fresh . I can’t wait to try other things. The white paper to the right of the Cole slaw was just the cover for the food. Visit #2 Got the ribs and I will say one dinner will feed me for two days. I absolutely loved them, they fell apart and had the bark. The best flavor ribs I’ve ever had!"

"Traveling through and got a local recommendation to try sam's. I'm so glad I did!! I usually don't like smoked BBQ because it's too smokey or tough from overcooking. However, sam's was right on point! It is honestly the best smoked BBQ I've ever had. Got the ribs and wings combo with 2 sides. Very filling. I prefer baby back ribs, but these style were the best I've had. Very tender and juicy, even the bites that looked tough were tender and delicious. Wings were also tender and lots of flavor. Recommend the miles sauce and cheese tot things. Staff was full of very kind and helpful ladies. Such a great experience and I'll be sure to return when I can."

"This place was recommended to us by several people. We are from Laurel, MS and we were visiting your lovely town. The service was absolutely wonderful and the staff was super kind. I had the large pork sandwich and my wife had the brisket sandwich. The sandwiches were packed with meat. The house sauce was amazing. The cheese tots were so tasty! The portions are huge and the food was wonderful! This was one of the best bbq restaurants we have eaten at. Highly recommend!!!"
