Vayda's Gypsy Rib Ranch, Sanford - Closed

I grabbed dinner to go at this spot on 17-92 near 46a on Friday. It has seen a lot of ownership in the past. Now it is a barbeque place again. This time it has a Latin influence. I had a crazy chicken sandwich with fries for $7. It was head and shoulders better than Southern Moon. The chicken wasn't pulled like I think the menu said but chopped. It was very good and the portion was large. The right amount of smoke. Even the sauce (probably bottled) was better than Southern Moon. They fries could have used a minute or two in the fryer, but, it was a to go order and they may have been rushing to please me. They get a pass. They have done nothing to the interior. It still has all the bric a brac that the previous owners put in. The two embellishments I noticed were a Bahamian mask and a mini flag of Columbia. The menu has more than basic barbeque and seemed to have daily specials. Prices were in line. It had some traffic at 2pm. It's been open for three months. It probably has the best BBQ in the area other than 4 Rivers.
