Hahaha! So do we! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@MsJoybird1]

The Black and Blue Burger is the best!

[@RaysontheRoad]

That sounds like something Matt would like! Maybe next time he'll give it a try. Thanks for watching, hope you have a great weekend!

[@Candyland420]

Yay every time I've seen that menu I've wanted to order the Pimento cheese burger cause of the bacon jam and onion but I am normally a BCB girl. GREAT to finally see it!!! What a gyp on those rings!!!!! I'm curious, have either of you tried my state pie....Sugar Cream? It's my favorite and I think you might like it too. :) Enjoyed this video a lot, would have liked to see you try the deviled eggs just cause they seem so strange to me.

[@RaysontheRoad]

Candy, you can't go wrong with bacon jam and pimento cheese on a burger! Yeah, I don't think we would get the onion rings again, the fries are just too good! We have not had a Sugar Cream pie yet but it looks delicious. What is the best sugar cream pie you have had or would recommend to us to try? The deviled eggs did look strange, we goofed up there, that would have been interesting to try for you all. There's always next time, though.

It was formerly an O'Charleys. 😊

[@RaysontheRoad]

We thought it looked familiar. We like O'Charleys but they seem to be disappearing for some reason. Thanks for watching and we hope you have a great day!

[@doobygelman5454]

Yummy 👩‍❤‍👨🐶 so surprised there are no copycat recipes out there

[@RaysontheRoad]

Yeah I would like to make ketchup from scratch sometime. It's odd that such a small simple thing can really add a lot to the dish.

[@susankannard5461]

Love how to are on point. Great review

[@RaysontheRoad]

Thanks for watching, Susan! We are glad you enjoyed it!

[@stacimentus316]

I hate when i bite into a raw O ring! Make'em smaller (thinner) and give a couple more and they'd be great... but i don't want raw onion in my rings! Y'all mentioned it wasn't the best burger inn town - where IS the best burger in town? We visit 3-4x a year so always looking for a good burger! Creme Brule is my fave dessert too! Glad to hear there's a good one in Pigeon Forge!

[@RaysontheRoad]

Staci, we agree with you on the onion rings! The creme brule was good! Its tough to narrow it down since there are so many good burgers in the area. Also, our experience may not be your experience, and everybody's tastes are different, and every place has good and bad days. So your mileage may vary. I would prefer to give a list since its there are so many great burgers in the area. If I were forced to give my favorite, I would probably say the Alamo Steakhouse has the best burger in the area I have tried. That's a controversial pick but the one I had there was incredible. Staci would probably say the Local Goat, but she is not much of a burger person and hasn't tried many. We actually have been working on a top 10 burgers in the area video but its tough since were always trying new places and having great burgers. Originally it was a top 5 burgers video. lol Stay tuned for that video. We hope to have it out soon! Thanks for watching and we hope you have a great weekend!

Food looks yummy 😋

[@RaysontheRoad]

It was, Martha. Thanks for watching!

[@sandradummer4726]

Hey Matt and Stacey, I like that this place makes a lot of their foods from fresh. Good dealI feel.

[@RaysontheRoad]

We like this place too. Its hard to find a place like this, these days, that makes everything from scratch, down to the ketchup! Thanks for watching and commenting! Have a great weekend!

[@sandradummer4726]

@@RaysontheRoad y’all as well. The weekend, enjoy.

[@stevenspontak6598]

Good they make everything in house. From the menu I would try the Cajun Dry Rub Wings, Southern Salad, Bacon Cheeseburger and the Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie. Not a trade on the onion rings but they look good and so does the jalapeño ranch and ketchup. Delicious looking juicy burgers. Bummer the onions rings were not cooked enough but those fries do look great. Overall the food looks delicious and fresh. Thanks for a great video from The Local Goat.👍

[@RaysontheRoad]

It's a really good restaurant, but not quite up to the hype. Certainly not bad though. That chocolate peanut butter pie does sound yummy! Matt enjoyed the burger very much. If I went back I would like to try the Greek burger. Thanks for watching and commenting. We hope you're doing well, Steven!

[@ski-yq9ur]

your burger (Stacy's) didn't include lettuce, tomato, red onion and whatever else it said on the menu. why?

[@RaysontheRoad]

That's just how she ordered it. Thanks for watching and I hope you have a great weekend!

[@crazybaby418]

I can’t believe they only gave you 3 onion rings versus the fries! Wow! I have never ate here but it is on my list & FYI I go to this area of ETN 3~4 times a year

[@RaysontheRoad]

We like this place. You should try it. It felt like a rip-off, but had they been the best onion rings ever, it may have been worth it. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@MarthaJOHNSON-iu4wk]

Nice place

[@RaysontheRoad]

It was nice and very clean. Hope you have a great weekend!

[@brittneyarnold5185]

Me and my husband think they put old bay in the ketchup 😊

[@RaysontheRoad]

You may be right! It sounds silly but the ketchup was my favorite part of the meal! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@brittneyarnold5185]

@@RaysontheRoad It was ours too! We LOVED the fries with the ketchup! I would go back just for that 🤣

[@GPgundude]

I really don’t think that this place is gonna make my bucket list. Thanks for an honest review!!!

[@RaysontheRoad]

Thanks for watching! Hope you have a great weekend. Stay tuned for more honest reviews!

[@stepheniesmith4927]

That's a little pricey for what u guys got not impressed 😮😮

[@RaysontheRoad]

It was pricey but everything in this area is so I guess it's all relative. It was a pretty good meal, but I do not think this place lives up to the hype. Thanks so much for watching and commenting, have a great day!

[@lorihartman6850]

That’s a fairly large burger and big onion rings, how many rings do you need?

[@RaysontheRoad]

None, really. Didn't love them. My point was that it didn't seem worth the upcharge. Less about the food and more about value, I suppose.

[@mattray6278]

As many as it takes.

[@mattray6278]

In this case none was how many we needed because they were terrible! 🤢 😄 Thanks for watching and commenting!
