Fill ᾿er Up Please When I think of BBQ I think of a little white shack with a smoker and a ton of wood out back. That’s the BBQ I remember growing up. I know those shacks are gone, but the feeling of that era can’t be beat. Drive down Beatties Ford Road in Huntersville and you’ll see this BBQ joint on the side of the road, and you immediately think of cruisers parked under those iron light posts. It just looks and feels like a great place to hang out and talk about your ride. The building is a restored service station, the center of social gatherings back in the day. The old service bay is a full service bar and the sociable side of the service station is now a dining room filled with auto and shop memorabilia. Jeff Lancaster started selling his BBQ and Wings here in 2006. Much attention was given to updating the look of the restaurant without destroying the character of the building. The food is old tyme great tastin’ home made gifts for your mouth. I eat a lot of BBQ and I can’t tell you where to find any better. Special attention is given to the fried food with homemade batter and sauces to enhance the flavors. You get the idea that this is a unique place to grab a bite or a beverage with your friends and family. Now, I just have to remember to ask Jeff where he hid the little white shack...
