Fairfield Ballpark, Central Islip (Ducks Game) I had the pleasure of trying the Piggy Fries from the Dang BBQ food truck during a Ducks game, and wow -- they blew me away! These fries were made to order and served piping hot, with a perfect delicate crispness that held up beautifully under the generous toppings. The meat was tender, flavorful, and clearly slow-cooked with care. Every bite was better than the last -- honestly, it was even better than I expected. The food truck itself was impressively clean and smelled incredible from the mix of barbecue and fried goodness wafting out. The very beautiful woman taking orders had such a kind, pleasant face that she instantly brightened my day. And major kudos to the cook -- whoever's running the grill is an absolute star. I'm already craving a second plate! If you ever catch the Dang BBQ truck at an event, do yourself a favor and order the Piggy Fries. You won't regret it. read more

Having this bookmarked for quite sometime my boyfriend snd I finally decided to stop in. Parking is not the best. Their lot is only big enough for about 5 cars. For drinks, I had the smoky Mary and my boyfriend had the dang LIT. The smoky Mary came with a piggy popper. We also ordered piggy poppers as our appetizer. They were probably the best stuffed jalapeños we've had. It also came with a good sauce to dip. For my entree I ordered the bbq shrimp. It came with a choice of two sides. I went with Caesar salad and collard greens. Both were good. When we were done I realized it didn't come with cornbread as the menu stated. We were already done, so I didn't mention it. My boyfriend had the smokehouse lasagna. He really enjoyed it and the portion was huge. We also added sausage as we wanted to try it. It was just okay. I wouldn't get the sausage again. After we got home I looked at the menu again as I thought the bill was a little high. My suspicions were correct. We charged more than what the menu says. For the piggy poppers we were charged $18, when the menu says $15. The smokehouse lasagna is priced at $26 and we were charged $27. Not really sure what happened here. It was a decent lunch. Just slightly disappointed about the price discrepancies and not getting cornbread. read more

We wanted to love Dang BBQ because it was highly recommended but, like others have pointed out, the food comes out room temperature. The skillet did nothing to retain the heat. I only liked one of the sauces they had for the brisket I ordered. The only thing that was still hot was the Mac and cheese, but it wasn't anything great. Did not care for the cornbread at all. My husband ordered the burnt ends which he said were fine. The bartender took care of our table and he provided us with great service. read more

Dang BBQ - Half Rack Ribs A La Carte - Barbeque Near Me - Islip, New York

I was in the area for a Dr appt and drove passed this place and I said I'm definitely hitting it on my way back ! I placed the order online so it would be ready when I arrive . I parked on the street and walked over as I entered it seemed sort of slow but looked like a legit bbq joint and they had a nice size bar . I went to the counter gave my name and the server from the floor came over to check me out . She explained she gave me extra napkins and extra sauce as well as utensils which I thought was nice I didn't even have to ask . It was a long ride home so I picked on the cornbread a little dry but tasty . When I got home I had the ribs and Mac and cheese as well as baked beans . So the ribs were really good tender and a nice smoky flavor I really liked them . The Mac n cheese was so so not bad but not too good either . As far as the baked beans those were pretty good again nothing spectacular but decent . For me the star was the ribs . I would definitely order again if I'm in the area maybe try the burnt ends next time and perhaps a sandwich like pulled pork . I recommend this place for an bbq enthusiast. read more

Dang BBQ - Store front - Barbeque Near Me - Islip, New York

We wanted to try something different on our Saturday night dinner outing. We heard that this location was on the brink of possibly closing their doors, so we called ahead to see if there was a place to sit down and a nice young girl said they would hold a table for us (3) until we got there. It was a 25 minute ride. Upon arrival at 6:15pm, there was a tiny parking lot on the side of the building with maybe 6 spots, one of them being handicapped. We backed in to the last spot. It looked like there was street parking as well, but check the signage. We were greeted by the bartender and the owner? when we walked in. They both told us to sit at the table right in front of the door. At first we were hesitant because the door would be opened often, but it turned out to be the best seat in the house because of the live entertainment in the corner, next to the bar. A gentleman playing his guitar to various hits that fit the atmosphere. Think Stevie Ray Vaughn... A young man approached with menus and we asked for recommendations, which he quietly gave. It was hard to hear over the music so we just started to look at the menu. Homemade? chips were brought to the table. We all tried them and the seasoning was not our favorite. They also tasted a bit stale. We ordered a half a rack of ribs that came with 2 sides (baked beans & slaw) and cornbread, a pulled pork platter (slaw and mac & cheese) and cornbread and chicken fingers that came with fries and a juice box off the kids menu. The ribs were OK. The meat fell off the bone but was dry, like it had been sitting a while. The baked beans had good flavor but were very mushy, like they have also been sitting in a vat of hot liquid for a long period of time. The pulled pork was luke warm and plain. You could taste the meat before picking a sauce to try with it. I chose the sweet honey BBQ sauce. It had a nice tang to it but I didn't really taste any honey. It went well with the pork. The mac & cheese came out ice cold. They were informed and another one came out about 10 minutes later. It was warm and had a hint of the same seasoning that was on the chips. Not a fan. Neither was the the kid at the table. The kids meal, however, got a thumbs up. The white meat chicken was hot and tasty. It came with fries that would have been better if they were hot! But they were also tasty. We all agreed that the best part of our meals was the slaw and the cornbread (although the cornbread was cold, like it just came out of the fridge). We didn't order drinks or dessert. By the time we were done eating, all of the tables were full. The gentleman playing the guitar was awesome. We tipped him on the way out. The waiter checked on us once and we had to flag him down for the check. The owner was visible and chatty with the customers. 3.5 stars. I like my food to be hot when it's supposed to be hot and fresh. I understand that this food is slow cooked in batches but it was definitely not timed right with how long it sits or it being reheated. I'm glad we tried it and if in the neighborhood, would probably try it again. I wish them luck in keeping this spot. Kids meal - $12.00 Rib platter - $27.00 Pulled pork platter - $20.00 Tax- $5.16 TOTAL - $64.16 read more

We had a great time at Dang BBQ tonight! We had a 1/2 rack ribs, burnt ends, speciality Mac and cheese (beer cheese and pretzel crust), and specialty menu Shepards pie with brisket. The food was delicious and we loved all their dipping sauces. I was pleasantly surprised by the ribs, they were tender and fall off the bone ! read more

Tired from the craziness of Christmas shopping we were craving some bbq. We decided we were not too far from Dang that we would dine in for once. The minute we were greeted. The waiter was friendly and the restaurant was clean and in order. I wish I could give more than a three but it may have been an off night. We've done take out mostly from Dangs. The food was very lacking. The burnt ends were not as sweet and crisp. It was missing that bite. Then the platter we order the ribs were beyond dry, very difficult for us to eat , sausage tasted different then the other times, the beans just didn't taste right. They were out of chicken but gave pulled chicken instead. It was ok. It really seems like it was an off night. I did enjoy my drink. I'm hoping that was this was just an off experience we took the food home it was rough. Service was great though. Will give them that. read more

I remember leaving here feeling like I needed to be rolled out because I was so full. I just kept eating because it was so good. Highly recommend the pretzel appetizer. Usually I will skip over dessert when I am super full, but there was no way I was leaving without trying a milkshake. The milkshakes are unbelievable here. They dont skimp on the mix-ins. Great spot for a delicious meal. read more

NOT WORTH YOUR MONEY Got the 2 meats an 2 sides of mac an cheese FOR 40$ Ribs and brisket both taste like nothing only thing they flavor it with is bathing it in bbq sauce. Brisket very dry and big ribs that aren't even flavored they are just smoked and drenched in bbq sauce. Very disappointing should have just gotten blimpe from around the corner. Also Mac a cheese doesn't have flavor also it's just pasta in a flavorless cheese sauce. read more

Dang BBQ - Ribs and brisket not good - Barbeque Near Me - Islip, New York

First let me address that my order was incorrect and I called the restaurant to let them know. They misinterpreted one of the side orders. I don't know why they didn't just call me.. maybe they aren't allowed. I was told I would get a refund for side order I didn't get. I ordered through the app. Ok things happen.Just wanted to put that out there so this isn't seen as retaliation . I have only gone to the Islip location for several years and of course made sure to visit the establishment when the community was told this location may have to close. I ordered a burnt ends dinner and pulled chicken thighs. This is the first time I have tried pulled chicken thighs. I have to say that the chicken was very very dry..How disappointing. are you guys tasting the food?? This can't be acceptable. The burnt ends were just ok.. I have had better in the past.. Update:: thank you for response.. the app I used was the one directly from your site. ChowNow. read more

- mac and cheese some of the best Ive ever had. Only has a cheddar flavor but is chewy and creamy- absolutely flawlessly prepared sauce and cavatappi noodles - great variety of sauces, but none of them were hot - super attentive service but given a lot of time to enjoy our meal (weekday lunch, no one waiting) - definitely order the actual bbq meats and sides ala carte! -even the grilled chicken is perfectly juicy and flavored -brisket a star! -above average corn bread -everything served piping hot read more

Dang BBQ - Mesq Grilled Chicken salad Mac & Cheese Skillet 4 Corn Bread - Barbeque Near Me - Islip, New York

Solid bbq food. Prices have gone up but that seems to be the trend nowadays. They have a couple of bbq sauces you can choose from to dip any of your bbq in. Most recently I ordered the pitmaster feast which tasted really good. Only downside was that they forgot to put the cornbread in the bag. I didn't bother to go back or call because it wasn't worth my time. Not a bad spot to fill your bbq craving read more

One of my favorite places for bbq! Don't miss out! Full bar, smoker on premisses. Friend staff milk shakes. All around great place!

I had Dang BBQ bookmarked for a while, seeing the spot on News12 swayed my Friday lunch choice. Walking in, the restaurant is a cozy space. There's a bar with seating for 20, a few tables and bench seating across the bar. I walk to the back and tell the hostess I'll be sitting at a small table. My waitress comes over, I ask her about the beers on tap. She mentioned IPAs, a Stout. How about a Pilsner? She said they just changed the tap and will bring me a taste. The beer tasted pretty good so I ordered a pint as well as a chopped brisket sandwich. I wasn't in the mood for a large platter so I choice a simple BBQ sandwich. I was asked if I want the chopped bbq with sweet sauce or spicy sauce? I choice sweet sauce?? The sandwich is supposed to come with cole slaw. I sandwich is brought to me with a side of fries and no cole slaw. The waitress is walking by me and I ask about the slaw. Not a problem I'm told, a side of slaw coming right up. This is the only time I interact with a waitress, no one ever came over to ask how my food was or how I'm doing. The fries were served to me cold.. I didn't care at this point, the chopped BBQ taste like a sloppy joe. At this point, I just want to split. The cold fries and substandard BBQ doesn't make me a happy pappy. After seeing the waitress walk by me a few times, I blurted out, can I have the check? Dang is right. Never again. read more

Dang BBQ - The pit master platter - Barbeque Near Me - Islip, New York

My family and I visit this establishment frequently. Tonight rubbed me the wrong way. Don't get me wrong, food was amazing as always. Service was terrible. Are the workers drinking? or doing drugs? maybe both? That's how bad the service was. The older employees who have worked there for some time are amazing, nice, and on top of their patrons. The new employees seem to not have any work ethic what so ever. Won't be here for a while until they clean up their act. It wasn't busy. When we asked for the check our server came back 3 times. Why did our server ask if we wanted the check 3 times? After we asked him for it 20 minutes ago? Weird. read more

The food is pretty good. Discounts for certain agencies that's always a good thing. Never busy but just enough ppl

Today my daughter, my best friend, and I enjoyed a late lunch at Dang BBQ! It was our first time we were pretty excited to get delicious milkshakes and some yummy food. We enjoyed the pool pork sandwich with sweet sauce the pulled brisket sandwich with spicy sauce and the Mac-lasagna. Service was great, food was delicious. Shawn S was our server he was super sweet. He came back a few times and made sure we were OK. Good size portions.... we actually had to take some to go. I will milkshakes also also really good. My best friend had a plain banana shake with whip cream. My daughter had an Oreo milkshake with M&Ms and whip cream. And I had the red velvet cake shake with whip cream. All delicious!!! We will definitely be returning! read more

We came here early Saturday morning. Within minutes there were many patrons. The staff, in particular, the two boys who worked there were the sweetest kids. I think one of them was jr. I think that's his name. He gave us the background on the business how he was there from the start. His enthusiasm and how great the business expanded, showed how proud he was to work there. this kid was clearly raised right and going places. As for the food, we ordered the chicken special wrap. It was delicious, except they forgot the corn chips in it. When i go back I'll be sure to indicate. Don't forget the chips. We also got the farm wrecker. Which was a ton of food and delicious. Definitely visit this place read more

I went to Dang BBQ in Central Islip on Rt111 last night. The food was very filling and overall delicious. I ordered Chicken wings glazed with Garlic and Parmesan cheese. They were very good. I also had the hamburger special and it was also very good. It also happened to be $3.00 off so that made it even better. While waiting for our food the waiter brought out a basket of potato chips that were covered in salt and sugar. They were filling and we used them to sample the many bbq flavors at our table. There are about 20 different ways to order chicken wings. They were meaty and very tasty. My friend ordered the Brisket platter. She said it was ok, but not S Smokey as she would have liked. She chose collard greens and macaroni and cheese as her two sides. They were both delicious. The brisket was well cooked, but I also tasted it and it wasn't as Smokey as I've had before. My friend also had a large shake with whipped cream and it was also very good. Overall, we both gave this place an 8.5 out of 10 because of the brisket. Our server was excellent and very attentive and also had a slight Texas twang that added to the ambience. I would recommend this place. I did see tacos at the next table as well as a plate of nachos with everything. The portions are huge. I did take my burger and fries home with me as well and my friend took half of her dinner home as well. I will definitely go back and order a little bit less. read more

Went here for our anniversary on Friday - and couldn't believe the size of the entrees. So so much food. We had the tacos, chicken and rib combo, and boneless wings with fries. We also had the jalapeño popper appetizer and banana pudding but didn't take photos. All of it was delicious and generous. Our waitress was also very present and very good. The only thing I would change is the texture of the banana pudding / it was much too watery- more vanilla wafers would have made it thicker maybe - it had good taste but I poured out some of the liquid. read more

We thought this was high-quality barbecue, friendly service, and fun atmosphere.

This place is proof that bbq is more of a southern specialty. I ordered sausage and brisket with sides of baked beans and Mac and cheese. The sausage was okay at best. As was the baked beans. The brisket however was dry and was like chewing leather. The lack of any type of BBQ sauce made it even worse. The Mac and cheese was just as dry and over cooked. I ordered this meal through doordash. As a to-go order you would think they would toss in utensils and napkins. Luckily I found a spoon for the beans. Everything else was so dry I was able to use my fingers without even needing a napkin. And yes, that included the Mac and cheese. That is the first and last time I will order here. read more

Listen. I can't recommend the BBQ here without warning you that you'll have an out of body experience. The sauce alone can make you tingle from your head to your toes.

I highly suggest you get a taste sooner than later - you're welcome in advance. *wink* read more
