When I was checking out the World’s Largest Rocker, it was suggested that I walk over to Natty Flat Smokehouse right next door for lunch. Can we say best idea ever for one of the best days?! I’m so thankful that they suggested it in the store next door.
First, just take a look at this place. How original is this?! Rustic, western and the down home feel. I loved it! How could I not?! Inside is no different. It just has a certain kind of charm, doesn’t it?!
Inside you’ll find pretty much everything that you could be looking for. Salsa, dry rubs, bbq / hot sauce, fudge, jams and ice cream. So many items, but I was here for one thing – BBQ! Natty Flat’s has a wide array of meat and side options but I settled for chopped brisket and a side of slaw. (Check out the menu for the full list.)
To be completely honest, the brisket didn’t even need the BBQ sauce. The meat was moist and delicious. The BBQ sauce just ended up being the frosting on the cake. On the walls there was some memorabilia on the smokehouse. Natty Flat was a man who loved his BBQ. He worked in many different restaurants, either working them or starting them up and soon enough he developed a place of his own, Natty Flat Smokehouse. The man knows his BBQ.
You have the choice to sit inside or outside. There’s a fair amount of seating but the atmosphere and the customer service is what makes this place so great. Everyone is so nice and it’s truly relaxing to be there on such a beautiful day. Country livin’ folks!
Here’s one of the best parts…. the bathrooms are outside. Don’t worry, there are real toilets in there. It’s not that rustic!
