Well, returned to Alaska and had to go to Seward and hit Firebrand BBQ. Just as before, excellent food. Our party of 19 had no complaints. They again knocked it out of the park. read more

Excellent food friendly staff and perfect setting!!! Met the owner who was super nice!

Fantastic bbq! Amazing price on the crab clusters too. I had the firebrand wrap, and it was perfect. Highly recommend!

Not good. The turkey should be pulled and or sliced. Too much fat on the turkey. No taste to the loaded baked potatoes. Like put some butter on the outside of the potato and crisp up that skin. Also shouldn't the the cheese be melted? The dish needs some acidity and crunch and the bbq sauce is just ok. read more

We stopped over at Firebrand BBQ while out running errands in Seward & they have a nice small roadside stand that will someday soon be a tradition in Seward!! We ordered the wrap, I got Brisket & Deb ordered the Pork. They were definitely packed with meat and sides that made a DELICIOUS MEAL!! We have spent a lot of time in TEXAS and it is great to have a taste of the South up here!! Definitely will go back while we're here & ya'all should try it, too!! read more

The brisket was good, but the bbq sauce was weak. The side of pinto beans were undercooked. Nothing to write home about.

Awesomely fresh and delicious. You will very happy that you stopped. Warm Alaskan welcome - fresh ingredients. Enjoy!!

Great BBQ in Seward and the staff were fast and friendly! My family needed a quick lunch and we stopped in for pulled pork and brisket sandwiches-so delicious. I saw that they opened early and had breakfast burritos with lots of meat choices so we stopped by the next morning before our glacier tour. Another tasty meal. We actually enjoyed the burritos so much that we picked up a few extras and my son devoured them. And finally we didn't want to wait in any crazy lines elsewhere so we went back to Firebrand BBQ for a 3rd day in a row and my wife and I had the "fancy eggs" breakfast. Boom. Great food, great service!!! read more

I want to start off by saying I absolutely love Firebrand BBQ! I don't think I've ever left a Yelp review (see reason below), but I want to leave one for this business because they deserve it! Firebrand BBQ, in Seward, Alaska serves the best barbeque on the Kenai Peninsula. My husband and I eat here quite often. Their food is always delicious! The staff and owners, Chad and Stephanie, are super friendly. As for Yelp I haven't been a fan ever since finding out from a friend, and business owner, years ago how Yelp deliberately hid good reviews of her business and told her they wouldn't make them "public" unless she paid them a ridiculous fee. In other words Yelp is into extortion. Which is criminal behavior, and should be punished accordingly. Sadly, I'm not surprised today to see that Yelp is still up to their shady business practices. Yelp has deliberately hidden six, 5 star reviews for Firebrand on their website. Those reviews can only be seen by clicking on "10 reviews for Firebrand BBQ that are not currently recommended". Shame on you, Yelp! read more

Happened to stop by for a beer while waiting for ride to exit glacier... decided to try the bbq, it was delicious! We tried the brisket sandwich and the beef ribs. If you are in Seward, this is a must stop for good eats! read more

My husband and I came here for breakfast before our cruise, and we were quite happy with our choices. My husband got the fancy eggs with sausage, and I had the breakfast burrito with brisket. Both were well prepared and came out hot. The breakfast burrito was a little plain, but there is barbecue sauce on the tables that added the right kick to make it special. The burritos are also pre-made so they're ready for grab and go if you're in a rush. Overall good food and I would come here again. read more

Never expect to have good Texas style bbq in Alaska. The food is simply great and fast from order.

What an amazing find. The food was great. Everyone in the family had a something different, and on a rainy August day the seating area was warm and inviting even though it was open air. Local beer, excellent sweet tea, super sides and the staff is really welcoming. I would make this the #1 in Seward! read more

Wow. Roadside stand with low expectations delivered an incredible lunch. 10/10. Got the pork belly and brisket. Sides were delicious.

Great food. Owner truly cares about his craft and his staff. Come and check these folks out if you're in seward during the summer season. You won't be disappointed. read more

Omg deliciousness in Seward! I got the bbq pork baked potato and it was the perfect hot carb filled meal after a day of hiking!

Don't come here unless you want to take your chances of walking away empty handed. Not sure why they have set business hours yet don't abide by it. Came here 2 hrs before closing only to run into one of their employees who pointed to the closed sign and rudely said "read the sign" when I asked him if they were still open. I then asked if they're closed for the day (assumed they were low on supplies) and he again rudely and obnoxiously responded "read the sign." Side note. I had also came here the day prior, 30 minutes before closing, but saw the closed sign. So much for customer service from this business...the term 'customer satisfaction' doesn't exist in their vocabulary. read more

Best breakfast burrito in town! Ordered it with the pork belly and homemade salsa. The salsa was fresh and flavorful. The pork belly was superb. Chad, the owner, does all the cooking and is a super friendly guy. If you're looking for a great meal at a reasonable price with fast friendly service you can't go wrong with Firebrand I finally got to try one of Chad's pork belly wraps and it is even better than the breakfast burrito. It's wrapped up like a burrito, but it tastes like all the flavors of a BBQ (meat, coleslaw, beans and onions) perfectly blended together so you taste them all at once. You gotta try one to experience the BBQ perfection! read more

Excellent BBQ! Appreciate the good eats and hospitality. Thanks again for taking such good care of me and my dad during our trip to Seward. See you next time! read more

Excellent lunch! My pork belly sandwich was delicious as was my husband's brisket sandwich. Nice, covered outdoor seating that was dog friendly. A few local brews were available as well. read more

The outdoor atmosphere was super fun. The smell of smoke was mouth watering and the wrap I had was bomb!!!

I tried two breakfast burritos at this establishment. The breakfast sausage and the brisket. Both had great flavor. A little on the small side but they were still filling. I'd give it a 4.5 on the breakfast burritos but knocked off half a point because they didn't have salsa one of the times. Definitely worth a try. read more

I've had a lot of BBQ throughout the USA and done a lot of smoking myself. This is right up there with the bests, the meats were phenomenal! Fantastic atmosphere, would highly recommend! read more

Pulled pork was ok, the BBQ sauce was very basic and runny not thick. In my personal opinion the baked beans were HORRIBLE!!! I prefer a sweet baked bean or even the BBQ flavored baked beans. These tasted like pork & beans with a very small amount of flavor & zero brown sugar. My wife ordered a baked potato with brisket and received a baked potato with NO BRISKET. Definitely not my favorite or even close to reasonable. Everyone knows that prices in Alaska are very expensive so when you pay that much for food, you expect it to be pretty good and this was not!! read more

Amazing BBQ food! Highly recommend! It's outside seating. Very friendly and relaxed atmosphere.

We had lunch at the Firebrand. I had the plate with ribs. It was more food than I could eat. Everything was delicious. The ribs were tender and flavorful without being gloppy with sauce. The sides were really good, not overly soaked with dressing. Service was quick and polite. read more

Nice little place. Good location away from the hustle and bustle of the cruise ship crowd. The food is basic BBQ, just average. The prices are fine. The food comes quick. Outdoor dining only. Good place for a quick and good lunch. read more

Should remove the Texas flag, raised my hopes too high and did not meet the expectations that comes with Texas BBQ.

Great taste of Texas in the heart of alpine country. What's better for a couple of Houstonians escaping the dreadful July heat than to visit Seward, Alaska AND be fortunate enough to find excellent BBQ! They even nailed the sides in true Texas fashion. Friendly people and great smells! read more

Stopped by to eat on a Saturday before 2. Hours sign said open but it was dark and nobody to be found. Even called the number on the sign which wasn't a working number. Bummer. read more

This was one of the best BBQ places we have been to in a while!! We got the take out special with the brisket and ribs, with sides of coleslaw, bean, and potato salad. The brisket was amazing! And the sides were great, especially loved the coleslaw. Would highly recommend! read more

Great flavor, portions, and options. We got the takeout special with brisket and ribs which came with a side of coleslaw, beans, toast, and potato salad. And an impressive amount of sauce. We finished everything. Would highly recommend read more

So delicious! We aren't fans of coleslaw and we got a second serving of it! I had a chicken sandwich and my husband had the brisket platter. So good! read more

This place is excellent! Loved the brisket Frito pie! Enjoyed eating outside and seeing what was happening in Seward.

The pork belly is a must, brisket delicious as well. Wish I remembered to take a picture but I just decoured it. Would definitely recommend!! read more

Take a break from seafood with some fantastic classic Texas barbecue. The outdoor seating is very fun and pleasant. I had ribs, delicious, and my husband's brisket was according to him among the best he's had. Friendly service. Good beer on tap. I would definitely go back. read more
