When I was a child, a trip to Russell's was an exciting treat. Now I live much farther away but sometimes I just have to make the trip to assuage my craving. Their barbecue sauce is unique (at least in my experience) so don't go with expectations of it being just like any other favorite you may have. In fact, if you are new to Russell's, put aside whatever preconceptions you may have about what ""real"" barbecue or barbecue sauce ""should"" be. It's bound to be different from what you expect but you still may love it just like so many of us ""old-timers"" do.
Pros: Unique and delicious!
Cons: Too far away to go as often as we'd like.
