    A great place to get bbq in Middletown This restaurant, Black Hog BBQ, started in Frederick, Maryland and has grown into a small restaurant chain with four active locations in the state. Their website states that the black hog is the rarest breed of hogs and they decided to name their company after it. This location, the Middletown restaurant, is the newest addition to the group. We were driving through town and looking for a bite to eat and decided to try it. It is a little off the main road but pretty easy to get to. It is in a strip center on a corner unit with plenty of parking. We were greeted as we entered and taken to a table. The waitress, Athena, did a wonderful job for first-timers like us. She told us that most of the locations are similar to this one with a restaurant and a bar. I ordered a chopped pork platter (sandwich and a side of French fries) and a sweet tea. The sandwich and fries were excellent. The tea had a different taste from the ones that I am used to so that was not my favorite. Food is served on metal trays with butcher paper below and plastic silverware so don't expect fancy plates. The staff was wonderful, the location was very clean and the prices were very reasonable for the amount and quality of food that you get. Overall, it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend it to fellow travellers looking for a good bbq meal in the area

    Undercooked meat- Black Hog BBQ
    M M.

    I am finding it hard to write this review as I work in the food industry and I know the importance of guest feedback, but I believe it is necessary to share my experience. I have always loved the Urbana location, but I am from Middletown originally and I was visiting family so I chose this location. *The pork was so undercooked* that I first heard from my father that he was feeling sick several hours after our meal. Not long after I began to feel very sick as well. Digestive issues and nausea were non stop all night and morning with painful cramps. You should be embarrassed that a basic smoked meat dinner costing over $100 is making your customers sick. And this is clearly not some random isolated health incident, As my parents' friends joining us for dinner became very sick as well. To put it bluntly so my message is clear; gather your kitchen staff into a meeting, learn how to properly cook your food, and get your s*$t together.

    Platter

    Really nice barbecue restaurant. The platters are delicious. I had two smoked meats, Mac n cheese, fries, and cornbread. Everything was really good and filling. Hannah was as good a server as I have ever had. Very clean and our food came out fast.

    Family and I took a ride to get out the house. Opened up my yelp bookmarks and Black Hog poppedup. We went in to look at the menu. We were directed to the back where there is a to go kiosk to place orders. It was easy to use and quick. We ordered 1- Chicken comb with Brisket, greens and mac/cheese comes with corn bread 1- Chicken combo with Arkansas Brisket, fries and mac and cheese comes with corn bread 10 wings plain ( sometimes I order wings plain as a test) Winners: Arkansas Brisket Greens Wings Fries Good: Regular brisket (most places will ask if you want moist or lean. they did not and I ended up with lean. Not my preference) Needs work: Corn bread, this is so common. Why.. Is it sssssssoooooo dry. Chicken was well cooked but the seasoning seemed like an after thought. Like it was added after it was on the grill Everyone was friendly and they were well organized! Would I recommend, absolutely. Would I return, absolutely.

    Took My Mama to Lunch!! didn't want No chicken found a BBQ spot! 1-28-23 and this was ducked in a shopping center lots of parking spaces and huge..walked around to the bar to ask about seating since you had to wait and the hostess took their break before I stepped in..Mason was a Wonderful Host/Server he sat Us down immediately we looked at the menus, Mama was indecisive on a Platter or sandwich.. I went for the DMV which was a Brisket sandwich with one side! I chose the Mac and Cheese with a add on of Potato Salad, My Mama ended up getting the same but with French Fries. She said Personally the Fries needed to be Thicker cut or like Red Robin because you don't get much of the potato itself. Our Meals came out quickly and still HOT! you can definitely tell/ taste it was smoked and it logs at the front and smoker in the back. The Mac and Cheese was very Good!! In taste , flavor and texture! The potato salad was salty and it was eh ok..Don't mind me I'm a chef I'm so analytical lol The Bread needs to be Texas toasts or brioche or something the bread wasn't made for the thick packed on deliciousness of the brisket!. It was falling apart which made it a little less able to enjoy it in its fullest form. The horseradish has to be made in house it was very much kick but paired great!! On the sandwich the Kansas City BBQ was the BEST of the sauces!! Overall I'd definitely come back!! If I come back to town!! I appreciate the hospitality and The excellent customer service and flavorful Food!! Btwwwww The Sandwich makes and Keeps you Full!! I couldn't even eat all my Sides!

    1/2 rack of dry rub ribs with corn bread and slaw.

    Delicious food! On a trip to visit family, we dined at Pigs BBQ. It's one of their favorite places…read more The lighting/natural light from the windows, together with the decor, give the space a really cool, clean vibe. We ordered a bit of everything from the standard and kids' menus. Our favorites were the pulled pork tacos, the flounder sandwich (my personal favorite), and the from-scratch mac and cheese. I would eat a pint of that mac and cheese if I could. A note, however, 1/3 of the kids found the addition of cracked pepper in the mac and cheese "too spicy." The staff was attentive and checked in frequently.

    Lovely location tucked away in Lake Whittier area of Yellow Springs. We arrived for a late dinner…read more(around 7pm) and it was pretty empty inside. We opted to sit outside since we had our dog with us. The server was very friendly, with great service and they are very dog friendly and had water bowls outside for them. I am from Eastern NC, so I have a pretty good idea of bbq and BC staples. I decided to try the flounder rather than the bbq this time. The founder was disappointing. It was a bit on the bland side and the batter is a little confusing. I was expecting a cornmeal style batter or similar, but got something different. The fish itself had potential to be very good. The beans also left a lot to be desired, just lacked flavor and taste. The business looks like they do a lot of catering as opposed to dining (possible a lot of to go orders, too).

The restaurant is in a cute location with plenty of parking in a beautiful old town, making it a nice spot to spend an afternoon. The menu had so many tempting options that it was genuinely hard to decide what to order. My husband had the burger and fries and said it was probably the best burger he's ever had. I ordered the chicken and biscuits with sausage gravy, and the portion was huge and packed with flavor. The Cobb salads at our table looked amazing, and our friends once again couldn't pass up the sweet potato fries, which are always a favorite. The only small disappointment was that they were out of the Maryland special crab soup, which I had been hoping to try. We skipped alcoholic drinks, but the bar menu looked extensive, and we did finish with a cappuccino that was very good. Overall, this was an excellent meal with great service, generous portions, and delicious food. We'll definitely be back to work our way through more of the menu.

I liked the addition of panko breadcrumbs for crunch, but I wish the imitation crab meat had been shredded more finely for better texture. For my entree, I ordered the Spicy Basil Crispy Duck (added $1 for Thai spicy). They definitely delivered on the spicy level, but the duck itself was not crispy. It came with rice and bell peppers and basil. The sushi tasted fresh, which was good. Service could use some improvement. We had to ask for small bowls for soy sauce, and when we requested a dessert menu to celebrate the birthday, we were told the kitchen had already closed. It would have been nice if our server had given us a heads up before the kitchen closed. The ambiance is cozy. It almost feels like dining in someone's house. They had Halloween decorations up and murals of historic Frederick painted on the walls. They also have a private parking lot, which made it convenient. Overall, food was good, but a little more attentiveness from the staff would've made the experience even better.
