Absolutely a fabulous meal. Came for a bday dinner with friends, and it did not disappoint. Truly love the food and introduced one of their fabulous sides (potatoe salad) to a friend, and he was just as impressed. Service was excellent. And the brisket was delicious....

A hidden gem in New Meadows. We went a couple times while in the area. The brisket dip and pastrami sandwiches are excellent as everything else we had. Great service! Carol was fun. The drinks are perfect and the place is just great. Most people were visiting rather thank looking at their phones, how refreshing. I got a chance to chat with the owner, wonderful lady who is working right along with the staff. Worth the drive from McCall.

2-years later hands down the best BBQ. Amazing BBQ brisket and ribs, sauces are amazing, coleslaw is the best ever, like ever in the world, potato salad was amazing and the loaded spuds appetizer was out of this world,the service was perfect. This is a must-stop on your journey. 201: Delicious BBQ; we weren't hungry but had to stop in for their excellent-Google-rated BBQ and once we tried the brisket and ribs we needed more .. really excellent atmosphere; beautiful bar, rough cut wood walls with local brands ... great service, super excellent food ..

I had the homemade sausage hotdog, and the Argentinian brisket stew, both were fabulous! Very unique flavors, the pickled onions great. My husband had the chicken sandwich and fries... Amazing seasoning on the fries and the chicken sandwich was good too! Will definitely be back again. They had a whole basket full of sauces to complement the meal and even had a very cute front on it explain the color coated bottles!

Great place, excellent food and service. We both had Brisket. I had a Brisket Special, Brisket with grilled onions with an onion gravy, ranch potatoes, and corn bread. I also got a Founders, Vanilla Porter Beer. Everything was awesome! My girlfriend got a Brisket Sandwich and Au-Jus, with Potato salad, which she liked very much. We will be back!

This place hit the spot after a day on the mountain. I got the 2 meat combo platter and the brisket was phenomenal. The ribs were also very good but the brisket really stood out. Shout out to Shay for her exceptional service.

The food was not as good as Texas but a great second runner-up. It was really good. The staff was very friendly. Clean bathroom. And check out the store next to it. Lots of goodies. I recommend this place. Stop by the mountains are a gorgeous view. Love the scenery

Visiting McCall and decided to take the short drive to The Intersection BBQ. Not sure if they always have live music but we eat outside and listened to some great country music by a local artist. Ok now the food, it took a little bit for them to bring it out to us but it was worth the wait. My daughter got the brisket and bacon sandwich and it was incredible, super tender flavorful brisket and the bacon just added to the flavor! The adult Max n cheese was really tasty as was the blue burger. My mom liked the mustard BBQ sauce so much she purchased some to take home.
