Thelma's is just the sort of place that fans of local fare crave. It's simple, well-regarded, and the food is out of this world. Years of experience ensure that everything is perfectly prepared, from ribs and brisket to sweet potatoes and dirty rice. You can also rest easy knowing that you'll have plenty to eat, because portions are hospitably generous. Realize that you'll eat from paper plates and often with your fingers, and remember that if you get there too late, it's likely that the barbecue will already have been sold out.
