Hey guys, I actually live within walking distance of that restaurant and believe it or not. I have never eaten there either. Thanks for the great review. About messed up with that banana pudding thing! Lol! This is Dave with Dabomb Smokes. Cheers!
We really like it. Give it a try if you get a chance. And let us know what you think. And yes, I about messed up on the banana pudding. But that was a good cover, don't you think?
Great video. We couldn't believe the amount of food we got when we ate at the one in Connelly Springs. Everything we got was delicious. If we're ever there again I'll have to get the banana pudding. Most of the time restaurant banana pudding isn't all that good. We thought the roll was very good.
Hello from a brand-new subscriber. I stumbled upon your channel a few days ago when looking for reviews on Dairi-o restaurant and your review was for the exact same restaurant location I would be trying. I looked over your library of videos and I think your channel is perfect for me and my husband. We just moved from California (actually right when covid started) and due to that and some health issues we have not seen or done much. We have never been in NC before, don't know anyone that lives here and need to get to know the area/surrounding areas better with things we can see and do. I think one day I am going to make something to eat and sit down and prepare to binge watch your videos, so please forgive me if I comment and/or have questions on your older videos. Take care, thanks for sharing and keep them coming, we are eager to start exploring the area/state and possibly surrounding states. My husband says it's not too far to South Carolina, Tennesse and Virgina (I think those are the ones he mentioned).
First of all, welcome to NC! Also, thank you for your kind words about our channel, and for subscribing. I hope you will find our videos helpful in pointing you to things and places you will enjoy. We actually just stopped at this Dairi-o a few minutes ago, for a milkshake. Your husband is correct, that you are not very far from TN, SC, and VA. You are in a very nice part of NC, as it is very close to the mountains, and only about 4 hours from the beach. Hope you enjoy the area and are happy here.
I really like the looks of the place. It looks like they give nice portions and the prices seemed good. Derrick you almost got yourself in trouble about the banana pudding, lol. You caught yourself real quick..
Yes, I sure did just about talk myself into a rough evening...Lol. I actually wasn't thinking about the banana pudding she had just made, but then it hit me when I said it, that she made one about 2-3 weeks back. I was thinking in terms of banana pudding in restaurants, but thankfully, she understood what I meant. Hers was really good, too.
@NCMemoryMakers I'm pretty hung up on the sweet potatoes crunch and jalapeño cheese grits. I swear tho one day I'm going there and ordering all the sides lol
Ray Nathan’s in Gastonia off South New Hope Road has gotten rave reviews from day one. They opened up 4 years ago..we will be having lunch there tomorrow..I’m going to try the pork/brisket combo. Haven’t had brisket since the mid 80’s. Check out their menu -:)
I'm honestly not sure. I've never gotten it. Shawnasi thinks it is one of those chocolate/oatmeal cookies, that some call "boiled cookies", or "no bake cookies". I'll have to ask when we go back.
Your not gonna believe this but I was going to ask yall if yall had been here before ! I saw it on Google maps the other day . The one I saw was the one near I-40 though.
This is actually the first time we've tried this one, but we have eaten at the other location several times. I personally like this new location better. But the other one is good, too. That's quite a coincidence, that you were gonna ask us that.
I've lost 13lbs on my diet and I just gained half of it watching this video! Lol Great job as always!
That is how I felt when I left there. They seemed to load my plate down. Thanks for watching!
I don’t eat anything after 6 pm now…started this when I went on Keto summer of 2021. It seems after I turned 50 my body rebelled.😮
@@Momtocam1997 I'm 49...I know exactly what you're talking about 😉🤣🤣
I don't miss any of the starchy foods anymore..neither does my health.
Vinegar base is my favorite..
Ugh
Its alway nice to find a really good BBQ restaurant.All tbe food looked delicious. Thanks D.and S.for sharing this video!!
Thank you for watching!

@@NCMemoryMakers hahaha! Yes, indeed, my friend!
We spent some of our growing up near Lenoir and love that area. We need to make a trip up there...looks so good! Thanks for sharing with us. Jane❤️🙏
That is awesome, that you have lived in our area. Yes, if you are in the area again, that is a great place to eat.
Love Shawnasi's hair. And the pig. Glad you enjoyed your meal. Looks like a nice place.
Yes, we were impressed with it.
I like BBQ places trying new things is fun

I really like the banana pudding here. Great place to eat!
Definitely got to try it. Thank y’all for sharing another awesome video.
I live in Lenoir and it is a great place to eat!
We agree! We love J.D.'s.

JD's is amazing! Haven't been to the new location yet. I don't know what side I like the best.
I love the banana pudding, so I'd have to say that is my favorite.

@@daves_craft_bbq_n_grill I also love the jalapeno cheese grits. Forgot about those.
@@NCMemoryMakers His bbq slaw is delicious if you like some heat
Very nice place and the food looks delicious I love BBQ specially brisket but I love Brunswick stew 💕👍⚓🇺🇲🦋
THINK I MENTIONED OUR YORKIE A WHILE BACK. SHE CROSSED THE RAINBOW BRIDGE 2-7 2023. SEVEN DAYS SHORT OF 21 YEARS OLD. SURE ARE MISSING HER.
Very sorry to hear that. I know how much that hurts. Lost mine in 2019.

Question regarding the banana pudding... Was it actual layers of banana alternating with vanilla wafers , covered with cooked vanilla pudding?
It was not alternating layers. As far as it being cooked, I have no idea.
@@NCMemoryMakers Bummer.
@@stevencovington4715 It was actually some of the best I've had.
@@NCMemoryMakers Good to know. Most places is instant banana pudding with a single vanilla wafer on top. Thanks!
you made us hungry that food looked great
It was really good!
I work there 😂
Nice! We need to get back up there again.
@@NCMemoryMakers yessir
Saw "Cow Patty" on the menu! What was that?
I'm honestly not sure. I've never gotten it. Shawnasi thinks it is one of those chocolate/oatmeal cookies, that some call "boiled cookies", or "no bake cookies". I'll have to ask when we go back.
DELICIOUS ! 👋😃
Absolutely!

@@NCMemoryMakers great minds think alike!
Try hog wild in baton you want go back to jds 👎
We've had it and liked it. Still like JD's too.
