Rubbin' Butts in Center Harbor

We took friends out for lunch by boat from Gilford to Center Harbor last month.
We were planning to order pizza from Elvios,but,that Thursday they were closed until 4:30 pm, so we tried Rubbin Butts.
Everything was VERY GOOD ,portions were just right and the price was a bargain compared to other restaurants in the Lakes Region.
We will go back again !

Finally got over to try this places yesterday coming home from the steamboats.
I had to get the everything combo, can't review a place unless you try everything

The brisket was juicy and fall a party, great flavor, the kielbasa had a great smoke and snap to it. The chicken was nice and juicy, my wife also had this and agreed was very good, she's picky when it comes to BBQ, usually not her favorite thing. The Mac and cheese was a big hit as well, kid scarfed that down!
Where I'm gonna be picky is the pork. I found the pulled pork and ribs a little dry. The pulled pork was shreaded a little thin so I think it dried out quickly. The ribs where cooked well, good flavor, just a little pull needed to get off the bone (which is the right way).
And as mentioned, good value.
We will be back!
