Gene's Barbeque

"Four kinds of barbecue are available: pork, beef, ribs, and chicken. We really liked these ribs. In the background are baked beans, the necessary side dish for barbecue in Arkansas."
Michael Stern






"Gene's sandwiches are available regular-size or jumbo. This is a jumbo pork."
Michael Stern



"Biscuits and gravy seem to be the popular breakfast of choice. While the biscuits are nothing special, the peppery sausage gravy makes a big impression."
Cliff Strutz



"The walls of Gene's BBQ are lined with posters and prints of the Ivory-billed Woodpecker. Once thought to be extinct, it was spotted nearby in 2004. "
Cliff Strutz



"Gene's is a convenient stop for travelers: near the highway (exit 216) and open from 6am to 10pm. There's vast parking space for trucks and recreational vehicles."
