The best brisket in the area I've had so far is at Swamp Shack BBQ a short distance away in Ellisville, MS. They seem to often be out of things here and then they have "specials" that they are also often out of which seems to indicate they are very busy usually. This place is definitely VERY popular in the area and it tends to be VERY crowded. They sometimes serve you really huge portions and other times smaller portions. I'm a big fan of Texas style BBQ which the brisket here doesn't seem to resemble the brisket I've had in Texas. Overall it is the best BBQ in Laurel, MS and they do have a cool space which is decorated with all sorts of bling bling inside.

I'm not sure where to begin with this review, because we very much wanted to enjoy this restaurant,…read morebut it was not a very good experience in any sense. We were in Hattiesburg for the night and found Murky Waters through their website, which indicated through their menu, photos, prices, and their suggestion that reservations should be made that this was elevated southern barbecue. It is not. Which is fine, if that's what you're serving and charging for. But here's what we got: "Smoked ahi tuna dip" = canned tuna salad ($12.95, served with Keebler Club crackers) Ham & cheese po' boy- it was just a ham and cheese sandwich on a long roll, and the roll was cold ($13.95) My son liked the brisket, but said the Mac & cheese was not good. My family got refills on their drinks, but my drink came in a smaller glass and I didn't get a refill. We all got soda, so I'm not sure why. The restaurant is pleasant, but we were seated directly in front of the window unit air conditioner so we had to decide which one of us would be the most uncomfortable while eating. The bill was over $100. After discussing it, we all felt that we would have felt better about the entire thing if the food had been more fairly represented and priced. If you go, don't order the tuna.

I recently stopped by Murky Waters BBQ in Hattiesburg and found the experience to be average…read moreoverall. The food was generally good. We tried the pulled chicken, boneless chicken bites, pulled pork sandwich, tuna dip, and macaroni and cheese. The mac and cheese was easily the standout side dish--creamy, flavorful, and something I'd definitely order again. The meats were solid, but nothing particularly memorable compared to other BBQ places I've visited. The service was okay, but it felt like the restaurant may have been understaffed. Several items seemed to arrive in stages rather than together. Things like silverware, lemons for water, and other small necessities had to be brought out separately, which made the service feel a bit disorganized and slower than expected. One area that could use attention is cleanliness. The women's restroom wasn't in the best condition during our visit, and there was a restroom cleaning log posted on the door that appeared to have last been filled out in March. Whether it was simply overlooked or not, it doesn't create the best impression for customers. Overall, I'd rate the experience 3 out of 5 stars. The food was decent, especially the mac and cheese, but the service and attention to detail kept it from being a place I'd go out of my way to visit again. I've had better BBQ experiences elsewhere.
