♪♪ [Kohlsdorf] We're heading a few miles north of highway 141, where small town Iowa brings big time flavor.

To travelers looking for Texas style barbecue fresh from the pit.

[Gwen Page] We are in the wonderful town of Luther, Iowa.

[engine running] [Gwen Page] It's just a hop, skip and up highway 17 and well worth it.

You'll walk in the front door.

You'll check in with our host stand right where you can see our open kitchen.

You can see our cutter.

[Man] 75 pounds is what we did today.

[Gwen Page] So you can see your fresh meat just being sliced right before your eyes.

And then you walk into what is called our patio and it has our open air dining.

[Woman] Hi guys.

How are we doing today?

[Gwen Page] And then we also have our clubhouse, which is extra seating behind the way connected by our outdoor picnic area.

We are well known for our brisket, so make sure you try that brisket.

We also have amazing ribs.

Our turkey is one of my favorites.

And then pulled pork.

You can't go wrong with that.

And then we have pork loin as well, which does offer a little bit of heat.

Then we have all of our comfort sides.

[Waitress] And then keep in mind we do have burnt ends today.

[Gwen Page] There are people here from all ages, families, sports teams.

We have the Y camp that's nearby.

So we often have camp adventures, the Ledges, Seven Oaks.

We have the Iowa Arboretum.

So there's just all kinds of people coming here.

[Pam Powers] Our friend heard about the place, had tried the barbecue, said it was excellent.

So we're excited to try it.

[Dave Leclair] I've had the brisket here, the pulled pork.

It's amazing.

It's tremendous.
