If you've never sampled the delicious barbecue (and more!) found at College Barbecue, then perhaps it's time for a foodie road trip!
You can order a sandwich, a tray (which comes with barbecue, slaw, and hush puppies), or a plate (which comes with your choice of French fries or slaw, or beans and hush puppies).
Or, order your meat by the pound. One thing for sure is it's all cooked to perfection, no matter how you have it served!
Order up a variety of hamburgers, cooked to order. You can also get a foot long hot dog, chicken sandwich, ham and cheese sandwich, a grilled cheese, and our personal favorite... the fried bologna sandwich.
College Barbecue is also open for breakfast seven days a week beginning at 7 a.m.
