That's so sad the food was bad...you guys are always so happy even if it's not good lol

[@ronconnies6090]

We have drove by Bustin Butts BBQ many times and never stopped. Those strawberries were beautiful. Thanks for the background music. Always a blessing!

[@SmokeyMountainDreamer]

That is such a beautiful view, always loved Douglas Dam area. Wow, that BBQ looked really good. We have driven by many times, never tried it. We will definitely have to try it.

[@janbohn3581]

My heart is always in the Smokies 💜. Thanks again for making us feel like we are there 😁💜

[@gusnickles3672]

I love good barbecue. There's just so many different ways to smoke it, and so many different sauces to put on it. Thanks for sharing

[@ChrisVAug28]

Great video Dawn and Will. I'm glad you are feeling like a million dollars.

[@delanomiller]

That food looked so good. Another bbq place you might want to try is in Friendsville. It is Small Town BBQ. It is delicious. The wood cravings were great. And the strawberries. God bless.

[@dianapearson1771]

Love the carvings!! Would love to have one, but they’re so expensive!!!

[@WSseaghost110]

We stopped by and looked at those wood caved bears, supper nice people.

[@Oldcarnut63]

50 degrees is T-Shirt weather here in W.N Y. 🤣🤣

We had this place and it was awesome!! Just left there. Darn good ribs

Thanks for taking one for the team Dawn!! I like barbecue, but sometimes I’ll go somewhere that I know is my husband’s fav and not so much mine, but he does the same for me!! Thanks for the videos guys!❤ BTW Will, always love your background music!☺️

[@elbaacevedo8614]

I live in a tropical island in the caribean that is awesome but your videos in the smokies are the best I ever see. TN is a great state full of great beauty. With your videos I discover the most cute scenary of God creation. The music in your videos really the best. From Puerto Rico.

[@laurarose8140]

Will I am so glad that you are feeling better and back to your cheerful self. Dawn your hair looked so pretty and I agree with you I don't like a lot of smoked flavor on my food either. Douglas dam is so beautiful every time you video it. I have never been there but when we visit again I definitely want to go there. Loved the wood carving anything bears make me happy. Thanks for another great video.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Nice veggies and wood carvings . Not so sure of the food. Baby back ribs are my favorite . Similar weather hete in Florida. Warm then cool. This evening it's wet and chilly! 😊

[@sandrarhea2328]

We went to Douglas Dam for the first time after you featured it last year. What a beautiful place & a beautiful view. Thank you for your wonderful videos.

[@evinrude1236]

That brisket did look good! 😋 Maybe it was lemon pepper in the mashed potatoes...? We love visiting Douglas Dam.....great views of the mountains! 🌄

[@yankeeinthesouth]

So good

[@lenagreen2979]

Thanks for sharing, hope you you are both feeling good. Just getting over a cough with sinusitis. Here in Florida it's the pollen🤧. That is a beautiful view .

I remember that we used to see God Bless America signs everywhere!

[@MidKahuna]

Busting Butts is a wild name

[@keithsanders2792]

Will, your nature videography is always beautiful and your music selections are always spot on. In my opinion, both you and Dawn didn't seem that impressed with the food. But hey, ya never know until you try it. Keep up the great work and be careful out there you two.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@sandrawarne8992]

Dawns face said it all with the mashed potato 😂😂

[@yankeeinthesouth]

It had a lemon 🍋 taste

[@davypeugeot]

Looked good guys , I had brisket in PA at a BBQ place and it was much more juicy and moist amazing flavour. We hope to get to bush beans when we hit TN this summer for a couple of Days.

[@smokymountainman4964]

Those strawberries looked soooooo good. I am eithbyou Dawn why would anyone put lemon in mashed potatoes. I could tell right away from your face that you didn't like them. I loved all tbe craved bears. Thanks for another great review.

[@theonewhomjesusloves7360]

you can put lemon in anything, sweet or savory because it inhances the flavor of everything. I learned that on the food network.

[@Rhondagail]

Hello there 😊 Will and Dawn thanks for the video 📸 s keep up the great work

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you! Will do!

[@Rhondagail]

Your welcome 😁

[@Ken-uj5wr]

You forgot to ask Dawn the big question? Would you do it again?

[@lacrossed55]

I wonder if you were tasting sour cream in the mashed potato

[@williamkennedy1149]

Where are the strawberries shipped in from because they won't be ready in Tennessee till June?

[@ronconnies6090]

Will said they came from South Carolina

[@cammybarrs7114]

Awesome 😎 Enjoyed very much ❣️ Thanks Dawn 🙋‍♀️ and Will 🙋‍♂️❣️

[@irwingreen7764]

Love the video guys! Please do a review of the "LeConte Tapas Grill"!!!! We'd love to see what you think. Also, have you ever done a "Pizza Reo" review yet? If not we'd love to see that too.

[@dianapearson1771]

Ya’ll need to ask what was in those potatoes. I like dill pickles in my potato salad, so I’ll add a little pickle juice to mine also. Interested in what they added to theirs.

[@emmytolkein3320]

Coming down in early May. Are there any good hikes or biking trails around Douglas Dam?

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Their is really no walking or biking paths

[@lenagreen2979]

I think that bear looked like a "Yoda Bear"😊

[@dianewilliams5271]

Very nice!

[@dr.johnhill4401]

If you do not know check out the story of the Dogwood tree and blossom . Very interesting.

[@sandrabrown2132]

I’m with Dawn. Not much on the heavy smoke flavor.

[@brendawhisenhunt8444]

Those strawberries look delicious! I wonder if they used lemon pepper in Dawn's mashed potatoes. Now im wondering if all the produce comes from SC...yum
