Great Q. Had brisket and pulled pork. Highly recommend. Very large portions. Sides were good.

I had heard good things about this place from a couple of people and my wife and I paid out first visit to Durham's today. She had a pulled chicken sandwich and a side of baked apples. I went with the 2-meat combo with brisket and sausage. My sides were potato wedges and coleslaw. The brisket and sausage were both fantastic. The brisket was tender with very nice marbling and a good bark. The potato wedges (a special) were perfect. The coleslaw was a tad dry for me but had a good flavor. I tried a bite of my wife's pulled chicken sandwich and it was delicious as well. I'm not a baked Apple fan but she assures me that they were great! This was our first visit but definitely not the last! read more

You know that feeling when you get out of your car and can tell you've made the right choice by the smell of enticing BBQ in the air? That's what you get here. This place is a bit off the beaten path, but well worth it. The people here were really friendly and the food was EXCELLENT. I had the brisket and my husband had pulled pork nachos. We split a piece of peanut butter pie and that was delicious too. We were traveling through on our way to Gatlinburg from Indiana and I definitely want to stop back through on our way back! We liked it so much, we even bought T-shirts! read more

This place was amazing!! We were looking for a place when traveling to Pigeon Forge and this little place popped up. Soooooo good! Ribs on Friday and Saturday only but the pulled pork and brisket were delicious. Vinegar (not creamy) cole slaw that might have been the best I've had. read more

Stopped here on our way home from a road trip. The staff was so friendly even though we were looking rough from our long day in the car. They were great with our kids, and the kids meals were big! The barbecue was amazing as well, and the sauce was top-notch! Would recommend this to anyone. Just a bit off I 75 so but a great place to stop enroute! read more

After reading all the reviews of nearby options, we decided to give this place a try. It was dark and hubby was wondering where I was taking him as we turned off the main road. Thank goodness for the bright open sign otherwise we would have driven right by! Friendly staff gave us the rundown. We ordered 3 meats, ribs and roasted chicken were perfectly cooked. Brisket was a little fatty for me, but not for hubby. We chose sides of potato salad, coleslaw, which hubby loved and apple bourbon baked beans. I was worried the beans would be too sweet, but they were yummy. I just wish they would have been a little warmer. Several congenial staff came over to ask how everything was. Too full to try any of their yummy sound deserts. Maybe next time. read more

Pulled pork and brisket were moist and plenty of it. We got some fresh made fries and they were pretty awesome , not often I say that about fries . Tea was fresh with a good flavor. All around a great find on our road trip read more

First time here yesterday I ordered the 3 meat meal. Brisket pulled pork and sausage. With green beans and potato salad. I was blown away everything was delicious and service w a smile. Going back today to order again before I hit the road! read more

This place is a real treasure! Pulled pork and chicken were excellent, as were all 5 sides we got. Were going to get peanut butter pie but were way too stuffed to eat it. Prices very reasonable and the staff is fabulous. The dining room is loud and jangly but everyone was having a great time. read more

We were passing through the area and when ever we are someplace new we like to try local food. We read the reviews for this place and knew we had to try it. When we arrived we were greeted by this nicest gentleman who was very helpful in making recommendations. I got the brisket sandwich and my wife got pulled pork nachos. Both of our meals were awesome, the brisket was not too fatty and the smoke flavor was great. Didn't even need their sauce, but had to try it and it did not disappoint. My said her pork had awesome flavor too. Was going to get fries for a side but the guy checking us out suggested the baked beans and boy am I glad I listened, they were great too. Don't know if I will ever be in the London area again, but if I am ever close by I might have to make the trip. read more

I just moved to London and was craving pulled pork. Found this place on Google and let's just say it surpassed my expectations. I got the pulled pork meal with coleslaw, baked beans, and potato salad. Everything was great. I didn't even need the bbq sauce for the pork because it was delicious without it. Great meal size... I have enough to eat again!! I'll definitely be eating here again! read more

I am very dissatisfied, and this is because I got a hair in my food. Also in my drink I got a green pepper when I was there.

We always seek out the hidden gems when traveling, and SO glad we stopped here!! Food was AMAZING!! We both had baskets, his chicken and collard greens and for me the brisket and wedge fries. Definitely recommend stopping by, we certainly will on our next trip through! read more

Durham's Pit BBQ is the best restaurant you will ever eat at. The food I ordered was amazing. It was potato wedges, pulled pork and cheese. It was perfectly well done. This is coming from a chef. Durham's can cook a meal better than me. I would recommend eating here. It's amazing!! read more

A little out of the way from I 75 but well worth it! I had the pulled pork sandwich, meat was tender, portion was generous, the potatoes salad side was excellent! My husband had salad with chicken and all the ingredients were super fresh! Sauces are good and staff is super friendly! Definitely will stop by next time when we pass by KY :) read more

I have the privilege of traveling the U.S. and as a foodie I sincerely enjoy trying new experiences. Domiciled in NC, BBQ is as loved as mom, baseball, and apple pie. Durham's hit a home run with this southern gal. The hubby and I both ordered a dinner, which comes with two sides and toast. He chose the ribs while I stayed true to the pulled pork. Between the two of us we also sampled the fries, the apple bourbon beans and the fried apples. The portions were plentiful and will most likely take at least us 3 meals to consume in full. The pulled pork was tender and flavorful on its own so I found it unnecessary to use any of the sauces provided. The ribs were beautifully charred and meaty, but tender enough to be easily pulled from the bone. The fries, just a simple crinkle cut, were as expected and the beans were thick and sweet. But those fried apples y'all - I could seriously just make a meal of those alone. The sweet crunch of apples swimming in a thick compote so delicious I wanted to lick the bowl (maybe I did, maybe I didn't). The sauces I did sample had the taste of fresh ingredients (or at a minimum freshly prepared). Overall, the meals were a wonderful surprise tucked away off the main path. I hope to return before we depart the area to fill up on a few pounds of pork for our freezer read more
