Podnuh’s BBQ

Good country BBQ. Staff is friendly and well trained. Restaurant is clean. Quick drive through. Dining room is a little too loud with country music. Big TVs typically showing sports.

One visit and done! sticky floors, tasteless meats and nasty looking sides.
I was hopping to find decent q in the area, but I guess that’s near impossible.
One bright note was the smoked sausage, but still not enough to rescue this place

One star bc we did at least eat the ham. We each got two meats and two sides so that we could try different things. I got the ham and pulled pork with Mac n cheese and BBQ beans. My husband got brisket and sausage with potato salad and beans. The mac was horrible. Neither I nor my husband could eat it. He loves potato salad and only managed one bite. Beans were burnt tasting. The brisket was really really dry. Only thing we ate all of was the ham and it was just okay. We ended up throwing away almost everything and will probably be going to eat a early dinner.

Podnuh’s, aside from Cobb’s in Bossier City (see my review here on Unilocal), is some of the best local bbq in these here parts. This newer location on Youree Drive in the once bustling Portico Shopping Center, was most recently a Mr. Gatti’s pizza place, of which I was a most frequent customer. And sad as I was to see Gatti’s go, and I was very sad, I am glad to see that it didn’t stay vacant long and that at least it was a takeover by a Podnuh’s. Walking in here for the first time, since the renovation, one may feel a certain sense of deja vu. The place looks great and wide open, it just seems familiar still. The layout is somewhat the same. You can still envision Gatti’s a little bit when you’re in there. They have a flat screen television, at least one that I could see, the same ol’ great bbq, beans and potato salad and the same ol’ friendly service. You just can’t really beat Podnuh’s. It’s right next to the newer Good Eats, which was formerly an Arby’s.
