    Smoked chicken- Mac n cheese- potato salad
    Bailey C.

    Super crowded on a Friday night, line out the door (which is a good sign)! Despite being busy food came out fast and staff was friendly/helpful with the menu. Large area to sit and enjoy your meal. They call your name over intercom to walk up to get your food. Comes out on baskets/trays that you take to dispose as you walk out. They have brews and normal soda/tea options. They have sauces to choose from including: bbq (thin sauce for my liking), spicy buffalo, bbq buffalo, etc. they also have Alabama white bbq sauce Ordered Pulled pork plate - husband said just average pulled pork Rib plate - bone fell right out, every bite was tender & juicy with loads of flavor Pulled pork sandwich Brisket sandwich (delicious, may be the best brisket in town) Smoked chicken plate *Tip* sandwiches come in small and large, pictured is the small Sides tried: Fried squash (extra cost) watery, minimal flavor - will not order again Hash brown casserole - WOW, amazing Vinegar slaw - delicious Mac n cheese - just average Hushpuppy - has a kick, get several with one order. I've had better Overall, would love to come back for breakfast, or to try their wings or nachos (huge serving)! Great bbq spot in HSV

    Brisket
    Diane K.

    Brisket was hot and flavorful, right amount of fat and a huge portion. Sides could be a little bigger, Mac and cheese is to die for and so is the potato salad. Everything was fresh and a good portion of meat for your money. These guys know what is up!! Will definitely be back!

    Brisket sandwich and baked beans

    Boarhog's BBQ is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and top-notch customer service that made us feel right at home. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was perfect. And the food--wow! Every bite was a flavor explosion. The BBQ was cooked to perfection, with tender, juicy meats that were packed with smoky goodness. The brisket sandwich was delicious and not Smokey in flavor at all. The loaded baked potato was amazing then topped easily with a pound of pulled pork. The meats were so tender and flavorful. The bbq sauce was nice and vinegary and added the right amount of flavor on top. The sides were equally delicious, complementing the main dishes perfectly. The baked beans were sweet and tangy. The Mac and cheese definitely needed more cheese or perhaps we got some from the end of the tray. Their sweet tea was easily some of the best in the area. You can tell they take great pride in what they serve. I loved all of their wall decor with named hogs and quirky signs. If you're looking for incredible BBQ with excellent service, Boarhog's BBQ is the place to go. We'll definitely be back!

    Smoked wings

    The atmosphere was really nice and it was set up for big families or friends. The service was great and the food was really good and they give you plenty of food. My wife and I liked it so much that we ended up getting some food to go also. I forgot to take a picture of the sandwich but I did take pictures of the rest.

    I'm sorry; this is a long review.  Bottom line: food is OK, price is kinda steep for portion size on some dishes, restaurant is awkward. Detailed review:  Tried this place after church on Sunday afternoon.  Almost no wait when we got there around 1145 but it got super busy round noon after we got our food. There are a lot of logistical issues at this place - stuff that usually goes smoothly at other places that doesn't seem to work right here. They have a giant TV with the menu but it was difficult to read for both my wife and kid (it was a little blurry for me but I could make it out OK).  Not sure if it's the resolution of the image or the Vizio TV).  If you have trouble seeing it they've got paper menus at the front.  The ordering area/front counter can get kind of congested - the drink machine and the BBQ sauce (one bottle for the entire restaurant to share, don't take it to your table) is located - there is usually a knot of people as people stand in line to place their order, people come from across the room to pick up food when it's called and people standing in line to get a refill or sauce. They serve all the food on metal plates and put them on big black trays.   Going off the half printed, half hand written signs on the wall, they would like you to return the trays and plates to a cart... which is right by the front door.  This requires you to lug your dirty dishes down the same hallway where everyone is standing in line to order and jump in front of people who are just entering the store.  Normally, when restaurants want you stack plates and trays, they use a wax paper liner on the plate so it is easy to slide your food trash into the garbage.  This place doesn't do that so you're trying to push a bunch of ketchup, baked beans and BBQ into the trash and not make a mess.  It is not optimal.  I don't mind bussing tables but this was not a well conceived operation.  There are three exits - one is the front door by the trash, one is in the main dining room but is partially obstructed by a table and chairs and doesn't get used and the other is  through the line of people waiting to order and looks more like an employee/delivery driver entrance.  This place could really use a Lean Six Sigma consultation or some fung shui tuneup. Food was OK.  I ordered a $17 brisket plate and received the most fat I've ever gotten in a brisket order.  I think about 40% of the plate was fat.  The sides were very small - I got potato salad and baked beans.  The beans were good, potatoes salad was very dry and seemed like too much mayo (which sounds contradictory but welp that's the way it was).  French fries were considered a premium side (which is weird, because they're usually cheap and the default) with a $1 upcharge if you are so inclined.  The Texas toast was delicious and one of the better I've had. BBQ sauce was vinegar based - I lived in NC for quite a while so I'm used to vinegar based BBQ sauce.  This one had quite a tang but was good.  They also had a spicy Buffalo sauce that was OK. Kids meals seemed decent.  Oldest kid liked her pulled pork sandwich with chips (a large bag of chips was a plus) and the younger one liked her chicken tenders and fries.  I thought the chicken tenders weren't overcooked, but not a lot of seasoning there. Wife got a pulled pork sandwich combo and though the sandwich was huge even though she got the small version.  She didn't like her squash but that's why you should never order fried squash :D. They have a Pepsi fountain and beer is also available. Ambiance is OK and plenty of seating to handle the crowds. No risk of this place going under -- very popular with the locals. Employees were nice enough from my interactions with them. $48 for a family of four with two drinks and two waters.  Not bad for BBQ but not the best I've had.  I feel like this place is definitely a resto with a learning curve- could be a lot better if you know what to order and management fixes some things. I'll try it again!

    Charles C.

    Loved it and cannot wait to come back. I definitely recommend this place. The wings were smoked, crispy, and fantastic. One of the best chicken potatoes. Didn't have white sauce with it and not sure if they have it. But give me Big Bob Gibson's white sauce on this potato and I guarantee it will be great. People were nice and food was quick. The dining room had plenty of chairs and a room next door. I want to try everything on the menu

    How much is the pulled pork per pound?

    I'm sorry I don't know the answer but I will tell you, last Saturday I paid $21.45 per pound (tax & tip inc) for a pound of pulled pork in Chattanooga. Prices have gotten outrageous.

This little restaurant is easy to miss but it has a yellow sign and is off Winchester road. There were a few other diners hanging out and eating when we walked in. The atmosphere was simple and straightforward tables and booths. It was very clean. The menu offers breakfast and lunch and you order at the counter. The woman working at the counter recommended breakfast specifically so that's what we ordered. I ordered the bacon plate, which came with bacon, 2 eggs (I asked for scrambled), toast, and tater tots - I suppose in place of hash browns. My mom got the biscuit and gravy. Service was super friendly and working hard. Our food came out hot, fresh, and plated nicely. What I ordered wasn't what I got. I think the employee might have misunderstood me. What she delivered to me was 2 scrambled eggs, bacon, toast, and a pancake. No tater tots. I honestly had kind of wanted to try the pancake anyway and I prefer hash browns to tots for breakfast so that wasn't a great loss; therefore, I figured it was a sign from the universe I was meant to eat the pancake and didn't send it back. My mom's order was correct. Both of us enjoyed our food. She said there was some type of seasoning in the gravy that she hadn't expected or wasn't normally in it but that she really liked. My eggs were cooked well and had already been seasoned amply; they were good eggs and didn't need the hot sauce I occasionally add to dress eggs up. The toast was lightly golden and they had jam for it. They were also generous with the bacon portion and it too was also cooked well. It was good I didn't send my food back because the star of the show was definitely the pancake. It had a little drizzle of caramel or perhaps dulce de leche on the top that really elevated it. It was cooked perfectly, so fluffy and buttery with just a little flavor from the browning...it was a BOMB pancake, y'all. Simple, classic food, prepared quite well, served by super nice people. Give them a try, especially for breakfast!

For…read moreyears, since they opened I would frequent here and the Meridianville location to the point where anytime someone comes for a visit they always beg for a Bacon Egg and Cheese Biscuit from Biscuit Express. I used to always get the bologna egg and cheese biscuit and the bologna was always thick and perfection. The breakfast platters? Amazing. But lately... things have taken a turn and I have tried, like really really tried like at least 10 visits giving them the benefit of the doubt and today I actually drove away. 27 mins from the time I got in line to the order box. With 6 cars in from of me. Total. Not 6 cars in front of me before the order box, but 6 cars total from the window to me. 27 minutes to get up to the speaker box and another 2 mins before they asked what i wanted for my order. This isn't a we were having a busy busy morning issue either. This is repetitive. This is the new normal. At least 30 mins to get your order taken and a good 5-10 mins to get your food. Average drive thru take 4-6 mins from start to finish. Even on the longer side maybe 10 mins, but 27 mins just seems to get up to the speaker box to order? Come on. Then they changed the eggs.. I know .. how dare they streamline their business. I'm all for that, but they started baking their eggs in like a sheet pan. So you get a "slice" of egg on your biscuit, which is completely different than the old eggs, which were liquid eggs and that was completely fine and delicious, but these new eggs, definitely baked, definitely "trying" and definitely lacking. So now my favorite thing has went from a bologna egg and cheese biscuit to maybe I'll just get a bologna biscuit. I've even been just to get a side of bologna because I do love their bologna. I've been just to get a soft drink, one of their new loaded drinks or coffees, I've been at lunch and ordered the bacon express burger no tomato, and got charged for extra tomatoes and then had no tomato Ive tried and I keep trying but the wait times are horrible, the new eggs... eh, the biscuits are great as always but just everything else is lacking. Like I've been through the line before when I was probably 20 cars in front of me with the line standing still in Moore's mill and from the time I got in line to get my food used to be maybe 15 mins TOPS. I really wish things would improve because I do want the new owners to succeed, it's just, this is "fast food" and it's lacking in many areas.

I recall the giant pretzel I had on my visit here with my coworkers. It came with the bro jo beer cheese dip that I recall being delicious and my Sister and I decided to order the Bacon Wrapped Pretzel Bites app., which is described as "bite-sized pretzel pieces wrapped in bacon with hot honey and bro jo cheese sauce." I typically don't like sweet anything, and I did not care for the "hot honey." If you don't care for sweet either, ask for the sauce on the side. As it was I could sort of cover the sweetness of the honey sauce with the cheese dip. The bacon was cooked well and managed to stay crispy, which was good! We split the Cheesesteak sandwich described as "thinly sliced grilled ribeye, sauteed onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms in melty white American cheese served on a toasted hoagie roll with a choice of side." We went with fries as the side and 86d the mushrooms. Thank goodness for the fries, which were good! This sandwich was a crime against sandwiches!
