BLUF: Excellent BBQ, friendly employees and indoor and outdoor seating. Brother's BBQ is delicious! They have their pit in their parking lot and inside they have a dining room and bar. The logistics are that you order at the counter and then find a seat. In addition to the indoor seating there are picnic tables with umbrellas outside. I tried the Slab Wrap - brisket and a Greek salad in a pita and it was amazing. So delicious that I went back for another a few days. The employees were great both when I dined in and called in food to go. Overall and excellent experience and I'd be happy to work my way through the entire menu. read more

Every time we drove by and smelled that BBQ cooking in the yard we wanted to stop. We loved the "down south" setting of the place just driving by. Like something you'd see in the movie "Fried Green Tomatoes." (I mean without the abusive husband part.) I really wanted to try the brisket but on a Weds it seemed the logical thing was the AYCE pulled pork and chicken even tho I knew I could t eat more than one serving. It's still appropriately priced at $13.50 for just one plate. The pulled pork was good. Better than average. I prefer more smoke. I didn't care as much for the chicken. I don't know why I expected like a shredded or sliced or white meat but it was a full thigh leg on the bone. It was good. Don't get me wrong, just not what I expected and had I seen the plate ahead of time I probably would've gotten the brisket plate. I wanted to try the pork and chicken but there's no sharing of the AYCE or take home. . But honestly, I don't think the very sweet waitress would've minded if I had a couple bites of my husbands pork and chicken after ordering my own full meal. And because we didn't order seconds (except a small portion of more pork for him, but we weren't taking advantage.) she brought us a box to take the rest of mine and his chicken. I had also wanted to try different sides but LOVED the beans and Cole slaw. Better than average on both! It was chilly outside or we would've liked to sit outside and enjoy the homey backyard BBQ feel. If you've driven by and thought about stopping definitely do so. The welcoming feel, prices and good food are a do it from me!! read more

Amazing! We lived in Arkansas and couldn't find really good bbq. Here we are in Florida and on day 10 found Brothers. So good. The place is rustic - but it fits. The service was great. Super friendly. We're so sorry that they're selling. We're plans on bring our family when the come to visit. read more

Loved this place for years and was happy to be back eating ribs and fried okra there last week. Took half home for dinner the next night. The place is basic in ambiance but that is fine with me if the Q is as good as Brothers always is! Service was good and I left hoping to be back again soon! read more

What an amazing bbq place! Very laid back atmosphere and great music. We really felt welcome. We ordered the corn nuggets a combo and the Monday pork special. Pretty dang fabulous read more

First time here my wife had eaten here before with friends and we decided to try. We enjoyed the outdoor area, so did Lucy! It's a rustic bbq joint with a lot of character. We ordered the sampler plate for $20.99 with a side of fries. It came with two sides and we got the coleslaw and beans. This will definitely be one of our go to meals this summer! We shared and had food left over for another meal!! Everything we ate was Great! You definitely won't be disappointed if you give this little dive a chance! read more

I travel Gulf Beach highway quite a bit and I always seem to forget about this little place. I stop in usually at a spur of the moment. I've always enjoyed the food. I love the brisket plate. Staff is always friendly and accommodating. It's a great place for true down south BBQ. read more

Our first time at this BBQ RESTAURANT. Small country feels in the place of business. If you don't know where it is you have to look for it. You can miss it easily. Hands down the best MOIST chopped brisket I have had since moving to Pensacola. We tried the deep fried egg rolls. There was not much meat or cheese in it. The macaroni was good but the cheese sauce was broken. The okra was delicious. I can't wait to return. read more

Food is solid. Not my most favorite BBQ place but it hit the spot. I thought the pulled pork sandwich was pretty run of the mill. The carry out service was very fast. read more

Ok... I hate to find issues with restaurants, but... Enough is enough! 1st time we ate in, only to get excuses for not having Collard Greens, of course passing the buck to the previous shift. Whatever Pork Eggroll was dry and inedible. 2nd stop to Go after leaving Gary's Brewery, I stopped for Moist Chopped Brisket, Collard Greens, Ribs and several sides. Collards needed seasoning, Chopped Moist Brisket was sliced and not chopped and ALL Fat!!! Today, our Homebrew Club solicited Brothers BBQ to smoke a Whole Pig for our annual Pig Roast... Epic Fail! The Whole Pig showed up without Crispy Skin, totally undersmoked, undercooked. Zero pullable pork. Zero seasoning or flavor. Whatever we ate required sharp knives just to separate the meat from the carcass. Total disappointment! The Potluck side dishes brought by all attendees became the highlight of the meal. Worst Smoked Pork I've ever had! Unfortunately for some local cuisines, we have chosen to cook at home, because it's so much better! I'm a self-taught Texas BBQ Pit Master and wish I had the opportunity to create a better Pig Roast for our club, friends and family. read more

Today, I had the pleasure of visiting Brothers BBQ in Pensacola, Florida, and decided to dive into their combo plate, a perfect way to sample their offerings. My plate featured four different meats: sliced brisket, two ribs, chicken (a thigh and a wing), and pulled pork, alongside an appetizer of corn nuggets and sides of baked beans and mac & cheese. Right from the start, one of the most impressive aspects was the speed of service--my order arrived incredibly fast, which is always a plus! The definite stars of the show were the sliced brisket and the pulled pork. The brisket was everything you hope for in good BBQ: [Describe the brisket more here - e.g., "nicely smoked," "melt-in-mouth," "perfectly rendered fat," "flavorful bark"]. Its tenderness was exceptional, making each bite a true delight. Similarly, the pulled pork was amazing--juicy and packed with flavor. Both of these meats were absolutely standout, and I highly recommend them. Unfortunately, the other two meats on the combo plate didn't quite hit the same high notes. The ribs were my least favorite. They weren't super tender and also weren't as hot as I would have liked. While I think they could be really good if they were more tender and served hotter, I likely wouldn't order them again based on this visit. The chicken (a thigh and a wing) had good flavor, but like the ribs, it wasn't super hot or particularly juicy, and it didn't taste as fresh as I had hoped. Moving on to the sides, the baked beans were tasty. They had a distinct hint of vinegar, which I really enjoyed, giving them a nice tang. I'd definitely order those again. However, the mac and cheese was not great. It was mushy, not very creamy, and simply not what you would expect from a good mac and cheese side. I would not order the mac and cheese again. To cap off the meal, I ordered a piece of their apple pie, which they advertise as fresh-made. I grabbed a quick bite before leaving, and I'm so glad I did--the pie was great! It had a wonderful hint of nutmeg and great spices like cinnamon. The apples were cooked perfectly, and the pie crust was nice. The apple pie was truly delicious and a highlight of the meal. We're almost there! Just a couple more details to make this review complete: It was a lot of food for the price. Easily could feed 2. Overall good. Would return for the brisket and pulled pork. read more

Carry out family meal. Ribs and chicken seemed under smoked, ribs were chewy. Second time that I've been disappointed. Recall Brothers being much better in the past. Staff is always friendly and helpful. read more

This place was a surprise to us as we were driving around the area. We stopped for lunch and we're so glad we did! Amazingly delicious food!! We got a pulled pork sandwich and really enjoyed it, with the most delicious baked beans! (We even took home an order of the beans) We also ordered a barbecued baked potato with pulled pork which was truly delicious!!!!! They didn't overdo the sauce as so often happens but if you wanted more it was available. We each had an unsweet tea to drink with our meal. The food portions were generous! Our dog was welcomed in the outside eating area and enjoyed some very kind attention and our server kindly took pictures of the three of us. This place is very casual and most people there seemed to know each other or were just really social. Nice bathrooms as a bonus. read more

While in Pensacola, decided we wanted bbq for lunch and came across Brother's BBQ. Gracious and friendly greeting as we walked through the front door. You can smell the bbq meats in the air. My husband's all-you-can-eat pork and chicken Tuesday was a huge portion tender and delicious meats. My 2 rib open face sandwich was flavorful with a lot of tender meat on the bones. If you're in the mood for BBQ and in Pensacola near NAS, stop here for yumminess. read more

If there was zero stars they would've earned it. The brisket had no flavor, and it was dry AF. The pork belly was undercooked and tasted horrible. Oh, lol and I cannot forget the ribs, the biggest disappointment, I couldn't believe it could get worse. I wasted 60 dollars, didn't bother to finish it, I wish I could at least give this to a homeless person but I wouldn't even want to do that to them. At least I paid 60 to talk to friendly staff, and left with a nice stomachache. read more

Yummy food, classic bbq ambiance and super amazing staff. I can't thank them enough! My daughters were so excited about the pig waving at them and I was left a cute note in my bag and found it after a long day. I was extremely grateful. Can't wait to go back! read more

Always heard great things about this place since we moved here a few years ago. Today was a great experience.The ladies who work here are great and know their stuff. We shared the combo platter and still have food left over . The fried pork skins are awesome reminded of home . We will definitely be back and love the music. Ask for Ms Winnie and Jessica.The Apple pie for dessert is awesome read more

Fantastic bbq food. The brisket is amazingly tender and delicious. Karen, our server, was very friendly and attentive to our needs ( and making sure our cups didn't go dry). The restaurant is appears to be an older home converted into a restaurant number of years ago. Don't let that deter you from dropping in. There were a number of people coming to eat in the restaurant and those who picked up food to go. It was a busy place. Highly recommend giving them a try if you're in the area. My apologies for not getting pics. read more

Excellent service and food! Plenty of seating for a group outside and small groups inside. An outside stage wonderful for a local band. Coke products always a plus. All you can eat pulled pork 1/4 chicken, baked beans, Texas toast and coleslaw. $12.00. The slaw was the only negative to our experience; it was warm?. read more

Found this place on yelp. Was not disappointed! Tues/weds they have an all you can eat pulled pork and chicken quarter with two sides for $13.99, which my husband ordered. Very good value. The rest of my family had pulled pork sandwiches and a brisket sandwich. Steak fries were basic. Coleslaw was fantastic. Creamy and very tasty. Baked beans were phenomenal with bits of pork. We also had the Alabama egg rolls. Really good. The house bbq sauce was delicious. Our server was super friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. We sat outside cuz we're from WI but it was a bit windy. Would definitely recommend. A true gem. read more

While we could smell the smoker from a mile away, the actual taste of the meat was subpar. It wasn't as tender as I would like, and was pretty dry and hard to chew. The prices were good and service was fast. The sides tasted great, but the actual meat itself gives the review 3/5 read more

Food was Amazing, just moved down hete and I will be a regular!! Great price and people were super nice

They charge a percent on top of the prices on the menu without telling you., for not paying cash.Each item is charged extra! Drinks- food.. everything. . I understand charging for a card but to do it separately for each item? Unheard of! And the bbq sauce is the worst I've ever had! The food was very tasteless. No deep home flavor of real BBQ. Could've had better sauce in a jar. Even with sauce on this flavorless pork, it was so dry. No flavor and full of more brine. Will never ever go back. Fries weren't even good. The worst Brunswick stew. Again no deep flavor of warm thick goodness, maybe it was like out of the can.. a real disappointment. The only decent thing was the kids cheeseburger.. tea was( dare I say it in the south? ) too sweet!!! Go anywhere else for good BBQ- Sonny's or Dickey's. Those were more richness of some sort if not watered down flavor. read more
