Anyone been to Moonlight BBQ near KOWB? Looks like potential for a decent fly-in location. What’s the food and restaurant like? Worth the trip?
Moonlite BBQ Pirep?

I've never been, but a few club members have said it's worth a trip. I'm in!

Yes, that’s the place! Good food, but the restaurant is not on field, will need a crew car.

Looks like a great place to try. Just about an hour for me. I’m always looking for great BBQ to try, especially close to the airport.

Come on down y'all. I'm about 5 minutes from it and the airport both.
Do you happen to have a big van?

Quite the opposite.
However, according to Moonlight, they do.
I just meant any of you that are flying in one or two at a time. Willing to help out/hang out.
It's also just a few minutes ride and an easy drive between the airport and Moonlight, so more than one trip isn't a thing.
The airport crew car isn't usually available... but can be at times.
I’m thinking a trip is on the radar here soon. Will keep you posted!

Depends on the current restrictions in place.
From the facebook page:
Moonlite Bar-B-Q Inn
Dine-in re-opening Monday Dec 14th. The Buffet will be available.
Edit: just as a side note, this town is running pretty strong on positive cases right now though.
(I am thinking a van down by the river might be a good thing)

The cool thing about Moonlight is in addition to the traditional smoked meats, they also have lamb and mutton.
