    Try the fall off the bone beef ribs, best coleslaw I have ever tasted, homemade hot from the oven bread (wheat and white are great with honey butter!), and the finger licking BBQ sauce!

    Food is awesome = homemade bread, beef ribs, pork ribs, Turkey, brisket, sausage, chicken, Cole slaw, potato salad, beans, sauce to die for, homemade cobbler, and the long island ice tea. Once a year!

    Come for the view, stay for the FOOD! County Line BBQ had been serving up fantastic barbeque for decades and once you taste it, you'll know why. The creekside view is iconic!

    Tried the tacos from the tips. Very good nice spicy little dipping sauce.. Wheat bread was fantastic. Sat outside on a beautiful day and beautiful sweet friendly Ashleigh took great care of us.

    Chill out on the giant deck overlooking the river and enjoy some great barbeque. The ribs are great, their turkey is super-moist, and an order of their wheat bread is worth it.

    The tables outside are amazing, so nice to be outside and see river and fish around. For my taste food was ok. I liked sausage with baked potatoes and beens.

    Got the 3 meat platter: sausage, pulled pork & 2nd cut brisket with homemade bread. Don't get the margarita grande tho- they served it in martini glasses. Food is awesome & view is wonderful!!

    Brisket & sausage were delicious! Beans & homemade bread were also really good! I subbed the cole slaw & potato salad for a baked potato, which I would do again. Overall, so good!

    I had the Memphis style pork ribs. They were delicious. And the water view was nice. There were a lot of turtles when i went.

    Everything is great. Seating outdoors on the lake while boats pass by and turtles/ducks try to get food is a good time.

    My favorites: sausage, brisket, turkey, potato salad. The Mexican Martinis are great, and a chocolate shake for the drive home makes a great dessert.

    I liked the marbled brisket, but nothing is ever going to be as good as the salt lick. Homemade bread and butter is delicious.

    Save room for dessert! The root beer float made with homemade ice cream and IBC root beer is awesome. They bring the root beer in the bottle so you can pour it on yourself!
