Old Hickory House is full of southern hospitality. We were greeted with a big âHow are you doing darling!â Our waitress was a champion multitasker. She was serving the entire room and referring to each patron with a southern term of endearment. The patrons appeared to be a lot of local senior citizens. I ordered the chopped hickory chick plate. It consisted of smoked chopped chicken breast and two side dishes. I ordered corn on the cob and cole slaw. The chicken was flavorful and came with a serving of special sauce. It was tangy but not special. The corn had been boiled too long. It was flavorless. The slaw was crunchy and sweet. I couldnât resist ordering the peach cobbler with ice cream. The portion was ample but there was too much dough and not enough fruit. Overall, the meal was average but it was a pleasant experience.
2. Juci Jerk

I was next door gassing up my car and could smell something wonderful. There was a guy cleaning up around the gas pumps, so I asked him about the shack next door. He tells me that it is always busy, and he was right. I parked the car and went over to Juci Jerk. There were 3 people in front of me in line, by the time I got my food another 5 people had come in.I got the pork and a slab of ribs. by the time I got to the car, I couldn't stand it and had to have a piece of pork (beware of the bones). It was delicious. Got home and gave my wife a piece, she loved it. Then she saw the ribs and had to try them. They were to die for. Perfectly cooked. They have weird hours and the place is really small. I would do takeout only there, as there was 1 table with a couple of chairs around it, that's right 1 table in this place.

You can smell that you are in a great BBQ place the minute you step out of your car! As you step in the rambling white building with an obligatory southern porch prepare yourself to enjoy great southern bbq. The atmosphere is "down home", the wait staff is friendly and helpful, and the menu provides all you could ask for in bbq cuisine. I have enjoyed the brisket, the bbq chicken, the ribs, and my personal favorite the pulled pork. The sides are equally delicious...one of my favorites is the tater tots! The last time I was there, I tried the "Tucker Tacos" (choice of meat and topped with coleslaw) and they were delicious.
