"The meat falls right off the bone of this tender and crispy barbecue chicken."
Stephen Rushmore Jr.

"These potato chips are a bonus when you order the barbecue chicken. These can top any of the bagged variety."
Stephen Rushmore Jr.

"A typical dinner starts off with this lettuce, onion, and tomato salad that has a light oil-and-vinegar dressing."
Stephen Rushmore Jr.

"Eat the potato chips before nibbling on these fries."
Stephen Rushmore Jr.

"This is where the chicken is barbecued over open coals. Notice the bucket and bag in the back - that is where the oil and salt are stored. They are liberally applied during the roasting so the skin turns crispy-dry while the meat stays moist."
Stephen Rushmore Jr.

"Park your car here and come in through the back entrance."
