There can't be a favorite when it is all amazing. Although I missed my clove of garlic in the meatball, maybe next time!

Brisket combo was great. Sides-mac n cheese / Baked beans were good too. Wife had the 3 meat dinner- she really enjoyed the ribs.

We got the barbecue chicken tenders. They were delicious... the sauce was good and the chicken was really tender! Fries were really good too!

The hippie tasted great, but a little too much oil. The spicy sweet was excellent. Lastly, we got a pepperoni with sausage. It was good, but half of the crust was burnt. Overall, they are very tasty!

What's happened to portion of pepperoni? I ordered a few times in the past but when we opened the box this time , we both looked each other. "Half portion of pepperoni??? ". .....
