I'll definitely be back and also recommend you stop by this hidden gem that it true Southern charm and hospitality!

For those that can't stay and eat, they do have a drive through that allows you the opportunity to enjoy great food.

This is the best BBQ in Laurel, MS while it isn't really my favorite brisket it is better than most…read moreof the other options. 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.

We started with the southwest egg rolls, they were good, but the star of that plate was the sauce they were served with. It was sweet and spicy. I had the baked potato and added chicken. It was fantastic, loaded with green onions, pickled onions, house made pickles and queso and tons of chicken. It was a meal in itself and I really enjoyed it. Also got to sample the Mac daddy sandwich, mac & cheese was creamy and cheesy. Sampled my wife's sope, and it was really good as well. This is not your average barbecue joint, only regret is not trying it sooner. Will definitely make the 45 minute drive to come here again.

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.
