The Crack n Cheese bowl topped with smoked turkey bbq & crackling was amazing! Not salty, the Mac n cheese was creamy. The serving was gigantic! We couldn't eat it all. Definitely will drive the hour to come back! read more

Hickory Tree Turkey BBQ - Smoked Turkey Bbq on Mac in cheese (can't forget the turkey crackling!) - Barbeque Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

Just ordered catering for my church. Man, those collards hit. The turkey was great, it was moist, Smokey , and flavorful. The Mac and Cheese was excellent. Even the green beans were on point. Everything seasoned well. I was impressed, great job, and thank you! read more

I actually had a mixed experience here. The chefs in the kitchen were very friendly, but the cashier was outright rude. She ignored our questions, told us most things on the menu were not available, and didn't even give us forks- we had to say "excuse me" several times. Just awful! The ambiance was awful too. There's no seating- this is strictly a takeout place, which we didn't anticipate. No restroom, not even a trash can for your straw wrapper! Rude signs saying "don't lean on the counter!" When you kind of have to in order to read the minuscule menu. Anyway, this place still gets a few stars from me because the turkey bbq was AMAZING! They truly have an innovative idea here for traditional bbq that isn't pork. I should have gotten the crack and cheese that everyone on Yelp raves about, but honestly didn't see it on the menu! Anyway, while I wouldn't be back I would definitely look for their food truck! read more

This turkey BBQ is a must try. The storefront is presentable with all the menu items right in front of you. The kitchen was busy working but seemed to really enjoy their work which I love to see. The serve meat and veggies by the half pound so you can get your feel of what you want. read more

Food is always amazing the turkey chops were great and the turkey cracklings is great as well Mac n cheese is a must try as well 10 outta 10 must recommend anyone to try this place read more

Hickory Tree Turkey BBQ - Turkey chops w/ gravy and rice and Mac n cheese and cabbage - Barbeque Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

I like their turkey legs very much. And the service is good.I will try other foods next time.

Food is fairly good, but I say this because we all have our preferences for taste. I think if you prefer more vinegar based greens, then you will like these. The turkey needs a bbq sauce soaking. However, the flavor is there. I like the coleslaw because it was the right amount of sweet to vinegar ratio. The macroni and cheese is for those who like cheese and mac. I like a bechamel sauce, then some cheese to top, so it's more juicy but not loose. Also, please salt the pasta water. The women who took my order were friendly. Small walk up. There is some room for about 4 customers to stand. There is no ambiance to speak of. read more

Hickory Tree Turkey BBQ - Turkey BBQ and 2 sides - Barbeque Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

I ordered the fried chicken drummettes which, were well-seasoned and came hot and fresh. The service was top-tier as I waited in my car to have it brought out to me when it was ready. I also ordered the peach cobbler which was good and not too sweet, which I appreciated. read more

First I must say I've always loved their food truck, it was a must stop at any food truck rodeo I went no matter the line. I was shocked to learn they had a store and thrilled to give them a try and I wasn't disappointed. This is my second time eating from this location. Warm welcomes and friendly smiles is how I was greeted coming in. The cashier at the time Michelle was very friendly and took care of me immediately. She took my order and passed me a pager to let me know when my order is done. This is a walk up counter establishment andthe service is fast and the food was amazing. Order took around 12-15mins to be ready. Total for family size turkey bbq, baked beans, Mac and cheese, yams, hush puppies and two soul rolls for $52 which is a steal. We have a little more than 7 servings of food. read more

I ordered the new Honey Sriracha Turkey Sandwich and fries! Delicious! Even though I'm not a pickle fan, I ate it with the 2 pickle chips! Excellent. I was a little disappointed that they didn't have any Turkey legs! And I'm kinda mad at myself. I asked "What's the Crack & Cheese?" She explained it, but my ears turned off when she said "cracklin". I don't do much pork beyond bacon and pepperoni. Later that day, I was told that it was Turkey cracklin and not pork! So now I gotta make my way back there for the crack & cheese... and a Turkey leg! BTW, this is not a Turkish restaurant like it says in the description. read more

Ehhhhhh! I have seen this place so many times at food truck festivals, downtown and the local fairs. I have always wanted to try the crackin Mac and cheese but I've never had a chance too. Luckily I finally near the restaurant and I had to give it a try! I was super excited to try it after reading the reviews. They were pretty half and half lol So I went for it anyways. I didn't really get what I was expecting! I was super upset that the hush puppies were cold. I could definitely taste the potential. But the bowl was OK!!! I thought it was going to be as good as it looked !!!!!!!!! I could taste the potential in their too. If I ever go back I would definitely do them separate. Mac n cheese and turkey bbq on the side ! I would also try the other items on the menu. It's definitely worth trying though. I honestly think it was just overpowered by the vinegary sauce! read more

I got the fried turkey wings a giant turkey leg and some cracklens and let me tell you, so juicy and flavorful! I ordered the smoked wings but they were out and so they offered me the fried and I was worried it would be dry, I had no need to worry! They were tender and packed with flavor. This will become a regular spot and I will be bringing the turkey home for thanksgiving this year. The service was out of this world as well! I could go on all day! Do not sleep on this place! read more

Stopped by craving a turkey leg. Purchased one Cranckin cheese turkey leg and one plain turkey leg. Textures were nice, flavors meshed well, and the sauce was a little hot, little spicy, little sweet. Great addition to the meal. Staff was so friendly dly and greeted us as if they'd known us for years. If you like turkey legs I recommend go here. At least once try the crackin cheese turkey leg. It was like a party in your mouth. My husband and I shared it and it was plenty for 2. read more

Stopped at the Hickory Tree food truck at the Wide Open Bluegrass Festival in Raleigh. Crack 'n cheese was intriguing... And EXCELLENT! The signature dish is a scoop of creamy Mac' n cheese, covered with chopped smoked turkey, slathered with sweet and tangy BBQ sauce and topped with some turkey cracklins. Each bite explodes in your mouth with the combination of creamy, smoky, tangy and crunchy. Yeah, this is crack indeed.... I'm already jonesing for more! Next time in Greensboro we're checking out the shop. Can't wait to try the rest of the menu! read more

I went to this restaurant on a Wednesday 6:25 pm. The young lady did not demonstrate customer service skills. She was rude. The first thing she said we close 7pm. I promised several co workers food from this restaurant and I could not leave. I had to ignore the bad attitude. I kept a smile on my face because I want this young lady attitude to change but it did not. There was 4 other customers came in after me. This young lady was terrible. She needs to find a different line of work. She do not need to work with the public under no circumstances. The lady during the day shift is out standing. She greets you with a beautiful smile explain the different items on the menu. She needs to teach this young lady customer service 101 class. read more

First time here, I'm a truck driver always looking for good tasting food. I had the world class ...Crack and cheese... flavor was amazing. Collard greens reminded me of how my mom made them and finished with the peach cobbler.... Everything was awesome and the very friendly customers service!100 percent read more

We discovered this place a few years ago and decided to give it a try since it was different. I'm in Greensboro regularly, but it is always on a Monday, when they are closed. So, I was able to switch my appointment last week to a Wednesday and stopped in to get a to go order that my wife and I had for dinner. Got the turkey wings which are large. Also picked up the spicy smoked turkey dip, which was actually more like a chicken salad but made with turkey. Not spicy, at least not for us. Instead of waiting in the car, I waited inside and chatted with the staff who are always pleasant. They also tossed in about three small containers of their BBQ sauce. It was very good, a little on the sweet side, but tangy - a Carolina light tomato sauce. They also have it for sale in small bottles. As Arnold Schwarzenegger said in his role as the Terminator "I'll be back." read more

Foods great, really enjoy it. Service is terrible, counter staff (take out only) doesn't care that you are there, actually would probably prefer you would leave and stop bothering them. IF you do place an order with them make sure you check it prior to leaving. You've been warned. read more

This is a takeout only place in a strip center out Randleman Road aways. They serve turkey barbecue cooked Eastern NC style, along with turkey wings, seafood plates, veggies, and hush puppies. They serve turkey hot dogs, and even turkey dip. All things turkey is what they do. Just tried the Turkey BBQ Sandwich, and it was pretty darn good. The meat is moist, tender, and very clean - no bits or pieces of unknown origin. The slaw is a coarse chop, mayo based, with some celery seeds included - goes rather well with the meat. They have a house sauce, but it is rather thick, and on the sweet side. I'll definitely try some other items down the road. read more

Tried the Crac-n-Cheese from Hickory Tree, it was ok, pretty much a bowl of macaroni and cheese with their chopped turkey bbq on top with bbq sauce with some turkey cracklins on top. The mac-n-chees was average to me, the bbq with the sauce was good, but the cracklins weren't a very good addition, they were burnt black to a crisp, kinda sooty. read more

I've only had the cracking Mac and cheese but boy oh boy is it good. So good I drove an hour from Durham to get it! The had a good truck come to my school pre-COVID and I fell in love with it. I have to try more of the menu whenever I am in Greensboro again. Just be weary that there is a strong vinegar taste I BELIEVE is in the turkey but I mean I love vinegar so That's why I'm so hooked on the dish. I made the mistake of ordering a large that thing can feed 4 people !!!! But still very good. read more

The food was gross. I had to throw my whole order in the trash to not get sick. They did not drain the grease off the chicken before putting it in the container. The Turkey wing was not cooked all the way through. Do not order food from here, you will be disappointed!!!!!!!!! read more

You should come here! Came by last Friday about an hour before closing. The place was full but not crowded. I originally learned of Hickory Tree from the Greensboro Food Truck Rally last August. That's where i first tasted their Turkey Crack and I've been fielding for it every since! It's not on the menu but the gentlemen at the register knew exactly what i was talking about when i attempted to order. Overall service was stellar. The crack is so good that I ordered two. One to devour in my car and one to preserve in my hotel freezer. Yes i packed one in my bag and it brought it home! It's that good i had to smuggle some home! Lol Oh just fyi the crack is Macaroni and Cheese with Smoked Turkey Barecue and Turkey Cracking! Order an extra side of cracklings if you're like me and love that extra crunch. Random: Carnival in the parking lot. Not sure if it's weekly or what but worth checking out. read more

Hickory Tree Turkey BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

I've only been once, but I've told so many people about the good food. I ordered the Turkey BBQ sandwich and a pint for later. It's good eastern style bbq without the guilt! Fast friendly service, order was brought to the car. Vast menu of soul food entrees and desserts. read more

They were at the Dixie classic fair. I was pretty excited about trying their food since I had heard good things. My husband ordered me the Soulfood eggrolls and their muscadine lemonade. I took a sip of the lemonade and immediately...almost threw up. it taste it like old Muskadine grapes that had come bad. I'll return to the council to tell them that the lemonade didn't taste right. I was immediately met with "it's fine ". I said well I'm telling you it tastes like oh great. The slender African-American lady say it well I can tell him, I guess referring to the manager. Another lady got a cook to taste it and see it oh it's fine. The slender African-American lady return and said "he said it was fine". I said all of that to say the customer service was trash along with the lemonade. I wasn't even asking for a refund. But they could've at least offered me another drink. This is why it's hard to support African-American businesses. Never again!! They deleted my comment on their FB page. About to repost! read more

I'm definitely giving this place 5 stars. Not just because the food is amazing. The turkey BBQ sandwich with that Coleslaw will bring you back! But I'm not a snarky uptight dummie that can't give credit were credit is due.. Just Bc you right 800+ reviews doesn't mean you gotta low ball great food and restaurants. The too good for five stars attitude makes you a loser... Small non chain restaurants struggle every month to stay alive and writing a great review and only giving a place 3!! Stars is crap. If it's great it's great. What a jerk! Go to this place it's awesome, the people are awesome, the foods incredible!!!! Place is a take out so grab it on the way home and have a meal with the whole family!! read more

Hickory Tree Turkey BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

Got some at their road side stand while driving one day and it was amazing. The turkey wing was flavorful and great size. The Cajun turkey bbq was spicy and had good taste. My sides was mac n cheese and the peach cobbler. The peach cobbler was very tasty. read more

Stopped on the way home because I'm never in Greensboro to get it. Idk if it was closing at 7 even though online hours are advertising 8. Got there and ordered my food and everything was good until the employee took my food to the wrong car. I'm not even sure if the customer she took my food to touched my food or not. At this point I'm upset. Got my food and my barbecue sandwich and fries were threw into a plastic grocery bag, fries in the bottom of the bag soaked in grease. I've been a fan of this place since college but now reconsidering if I will return. read more

I went there yesterday and it was good. Me and my girlfriend are definitely going again. I had the turkey wing with collards and macncheese it was very good. My girlfriend had the bbq sandwich with fries and that was good as well. Cleaned my plate! read more

Got takeout, inside had limited capacity due to COVID, all good, I appreciate the safety measure. So it was a wait for your food situation. Food took from 2:45 to 3:35 to get to us, including one false start where they brought us food to us realized it was the wrong order and then took it to them (it was also another car that clearly came after us). Food finally came. I got the Turkey dinner, sides of baked beans and cabbage. Turkey was fine, it really needed the sauce but even with it didn't stand out. Cabbage was bad, not flavorful, massive chunks. Beans were actively bad, had a little bit of Southwestern thing going on and were also a small portion even if you did like them. Hush puppies were probably the best part of the meal, and they were fine. I don't write reviews, you got to motivate me to write a bad one. This was that bad. read more

When they're open this is easily a top spot for a Smoked Turkey leg, and the prices were just a plus.

It was my first time having "Crack and Cheese"! Let's just say I'm hooked already! The turkey bbq on top of cheesy creamy macaroni and cheese was something I've never had before. This is a take out place so place your order in advance or when you arrive. I placed my order when I arrived and they were very timely. I also got a chance to taste their homemade pink lemonade. Everything was so delicious and affordable. All bbq here is turkey. I recommend giving them a try! read more

Hickory Tree Turkey BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

I had been talking to my wife about going here for over a year an decided to this weekend and it was the worst food mistake of my life. Food was straight trash turkey leg tasted like it was old an spoiled. It was almost like they reheated food they cooked a few days ago. It was really small an the meat was grey. The Crack an cheese tasted horrible. Greens was terrible an bland. The turkey bbq on top of the Mac an cheese had a good smoke flavor but was still not great. I will never eat there again. read more

This is a really nice takeout place that makes Turkey barbeque. They chop up the white meat with barbeque sauce and also have Turkey legs for dark meat lovers. The side items are really good home made southern sides. The folks that run place are super nice as well. read more

This is a little dive with takeout service only. I ordered hotdogs all the way and collard greens. The service is okay. You are kind of expected to know what you want when you order. The menu board has changed recently, so the older photos of the menu board are outdated. I will include a photo. They have very unique dishes but one that caught my eye was the crack and cheese. It is mac cheese with bbq turkey, turkey crackling, and bbq sauce. This dish by the way was very good and certainly unique. They have turkey ribs, turkey tenders and turkey burgers. Well we ordered turkey dogs with turkey chili, crack and cheese and their new turkey burger. This particular day, they were being offered for a buck a piece. Pretty good dogs. Crack and cheese as mentioned earlier was good. Now on to the burger. My burger was not completely cooked. Although the cook offered to make me another one that was done this time, I want to make mention to check your burger for doneness if they are busy.One thing I didn't like is that the cook brushed it off and said the burger was done, that is just the turkey. NOPE! If I had not been paying attention as some people do when eating, I could have been seriously ill. I have had enough turkey burgers to know if they are done or not. I cook and eat turkey burgers all the time. Would I go back... I probably would because with the exception of the burger goof, I think that the food is good. I would really inspect my burger though... read more
