I recommend going fatty on the brisket, if you want a true existential experience. The turkey was illegally tender and juicy. Sneaky play. I wish I could have had the Texas hot link but they were out. For as busy as it was, they moved some meat pretty efficiently. Get there early, try all the sauces (secret was my favorite) and snag the banana pudding for dessert

I like the spicy yellow sauce more than the regular. Tea $2.25: I mix the unsweet and sweat for 50/50 and it's yuummy. My parents liked it so much they wanted to order more. Would def come back!

For me the portions and prices were good but the lack of flavor is what got me. The Mac was dry as well as the sweet potato. I also wish they toasted the bread.

Might have well been a kid's meal. The mahi sandwich was the only redeemable part of the meal, the mac & cheese was lukewarm and I could never justify this plate of food for the price. On top of that, they're one of those places that asks for a tip when it's just fast food style "order your food yourself at the counter". If you tipped you'd be paying almost $20. The place was empty at noon on a Saturday, I can see why. Stop cutting corners, you aren't fooling anyone.

Opening the door, you are immediately hit with BBQ smoke flavor. I was getting pumped. I ordered a tornado and the rib and brisket platter just to get a sample of everything. I picked the Mac n cheese as a side. The platter came with a half link of jalapeño cheddar smoked sausage which was the best thing on the tray. The tornado was ok. The brisket portion was pretty weaksauce. I'm paying $30 to sample some brisket and I only get two slices? Ouch. It was ok. The ribs were not smoky at all, and there could have been more rub for bark and flavor. Sauces were average. Mac n cheese was inedible for me as it just tasted like butter and noodles. Place was rockin with a lot of people, but overall, would not go back.

As a declared and self-ordained brisket snob from Texas I've been asked if there are any good…read moreplaces for it in South Carolina. The answer is a resounding "yep" and my favorite is Bobby's BBQ. On a recent visit to Greenville my wife and I made a side trip here, SO worth the stop. This is truly great brisket! Seasoned, wood-smoked, moist and flavorful. So tender it can be cut with a fork. Meat candy goodness. Is it supposed to be so dark? Absolutely, the servings are NOT burnt. There's a wonderful bark on this brisket which comes from a generous seasoned rub, low heat and a lot of TLC. Is it supposed to be fatty? You bet. Brisket is a tough cut of meat and fat provides tenderness, moisture and flavor. This ain't fine dinin' but the service from the counter is always welcoming and helpful. There is indoor and outdoor seating if you'd prefer to stretch your legs and eat here instead of waiting for the long drive home. The sides and sauces are very good as well. I love the Sweet Potato Crunch and the tangy OG Sauce is as good as any Texas Hill Country joint offers. (Sorry, I have no food photos. We got this order to-go and I didn't want to mislead anyone with shots of dinner on our deluxe paper plates.)

We each got the sandwich combo (meat of your choice, 2 sides & a drink) and some smoked sausages. The turkey was amazing, as was the brisket and pulled pork! The sausage is some of the best we've ever had. My sons loved the mac 'n cheese and I loved the coleslaw and sweet potato casserole. There's plenty of seating, both inside and outdoors. The vibe is very family friendly and welcoming. They had seasonal blackberry & peach cobbler on the menu, but it was sold out that evening. My husband returned the following day to get some (and a couple more sausages). The cobbler was worth the wait! Staff is personable and friendly! We will definitely be back!

Order at the counter and they hand it to you and you take it to the table. No table service. Now for the food. Four pulled pork plates and a 1/2 chicken plate. I had one of the pulled pork plates with cucumbers salad and their sweet potato crunch. For those that don't know I am a bbq snob. We have smoked many a pound of pork. This pork was ok. It was however chopped which does change the taste. Also it was a bit dry and had gristle. I had several large pieces of gristle on my plate but the others did not. Could be due to I was the last one. The sauces were a yellow and a ketchup based. Actually mixed them and found them to be good. I usually do not like the mustard sauce. Mixed it worked well. The cucumber salad was very good and was given in abundance. The sweet potato crunch also surprised me and was delicious also. Now the sweet tea was absolutely naughty. Wow it was so good. Over all not a bad meal. Bbqing for a large operation is tough and my old school way would not make production so I have to take that into account. Typical old school BBQ joint with long tables and order at the counter. You will leave smelling smoky no doubt. Plenty of parking except right at the rush.
