We stopped at Tommy's for lunch while out for a day trip and tried the small chopped pork barbecue…read moreplate with red slaw. Both of us felt the highlight of the meal were the hushpuppies. They were absolutely outstanding: two very large, circular hushpuppies that might be mistaken for an onion ring, served hot out of the fryer. Superb. Best hushpuppy I've had in years. My sweet potato casserole was good, although the consistency was a bit on the soupy side. It had a hint of brown sugar, but no pecans for texture. The red slaw rates a meh; bland almost to the point of being flavorless. The chopped pork was the biggest disappointment of the meal. It didn't have a hint of smokiness, but instead was uncharacteristically sweet and unlike eastern NC or Lexington-style 'q. Neither of us cared for it. Service was good and the restaurant has your typical small-town BBQ joint feel. Barbecue restaurants are really about smoked meat and the chopped pork came up short here. If it wasn't for the incredibly tasty hushpuppies, this would be a 2-star review.

We arrived at 9:45 on a chilly, drizzly day and there were probably 50 people in line ahead of us. There was a friendly staff member monitoring and organizing the line and she told us we were there on a 'slow' day because of the weather. After the restaurant opened at 11, we waited in line for probably another 45 minutes until we got inside to order. The brisket was great, but the best things we had were the kolaches (stuffed breakfast rolls available before they open), Cheerwine hot link sausage, and fruit crisp. The Cheerwine sausage was the biggest surprise. It had a great flavor and wasn't sweet - I've never had anything like it before. When we get a chance to go back, we'll probably skip the pulled pork and mac & cheese. They were fine but there's a lot to try and these weren't anything special.

So when we came to Myrtle Beach for our family vacation one of the things I really wanted to try was some great authentic whole hog Carolina BBQ. This is the place. I remember seeing Scott's come up on a few shows I had watched and I also saw Rodney on a few YouTube videos, so I was excited to try it out. There's a lot of history here. The staff here are all very welcoming and super friendly. The young women behind the counter were all very helpful. For food we went with the bbq plate, rib plate, and chicken plate. All of the meats were tender and delicious. In this region of Carolina the sauce is primarily a vinegar pepper sauce which I really enjoyed. The tables are set up in the perfect spot, right outside the hanger where they cook the meats... so all the delicious smells from the smoke and meats come wafting through. It's a great experience. My hats off to the staff and family for all their hard work and dedication to the craft. The foods delicious and made with love. I highly recommend checking this place out if you're looking for some great whole hog bbq. Thanks again!

This restaurant does NOT disappoint! We really enjoyed our experience at this relaxed restaurant. Rebecca, our server, did an excellent job anticipating our needs and flawlessly ensured our order was correct. She was awesome! Food is UNBELIEVABLY EXCELLENT! The brisket and pulled pork was perfectly done! The potato salad and banana pudding were great. My son had the half-rack of ribs and the portion they brought out looked like a whole rack. We've never seen our son eat ribs so quickly - he devoured them in what was likely a record time, and if you knew this kid - he doesn't get in a hurry for anything...but had we reached over his plate we would likely be missing fingers... lol The brisket was tender, juicy, and very flavorful. My wife enjoyed the chicken and brisket. The collard greens were perfectly done. The sauces were great! Banana pudding was the best you can get aside from having homemade. We live about 40 minutes from this restaurant and in another county - but we will now be regular fixtures at this restaurant. They are definitely the G.O.A.T. in a 4 county area! Do give them a try!

Being a native Texan myself and serious critic of smoked brisket I wanted to put it to the test. The brisket was real deal. Salt and pepper and slow smoked with real wood and not the propane wood combo most places have. It was tender and pulled easy. It's remote and out of the way and honestly for BBQ a hidden gem. I've had plenty of brisket in my life both in Texas and the Carolina's and honestly this place has maybe the best I've had in some time. Oh and they have like four different house made bbq sauces that are incredible. Adding this to my bbq trail list. Hit it up now!

The restaurant looks new and it's very clean and organized. The staff are super helpful and friendly. You can actually smell the smokers from outside when you pull up and that's a great sign to me that the meats will have that delicious Smokey flavor. I have tried their Brisket, Jalapeño Smoked Sausage, Pulled Pork and Smoked Turkey. All of their meats are delicious and have great flavor, and I highly recommend the Brisket. Their sides aren't bad either. I've tried the Mac n Cheese, Baked Beans, Greens and Coleslaw. I enjoyed them all but I think the Baked Beans need more meat and BBQ sauce in them IMO. Their sauces are especially yummy. Try all of them and pick your favorite. I would recommend this restaurant to any visitors in town who are wanting good BBQ.

The fried okra was cooked right and not greasy. The potato salad surprised me in a good way, it had slices of bacon in it, which was different but actually really good. The banana pudding was good and creamy, and the peach cobbler was good too. Portions are generous. It's a lot of food for the price and definitely worth it. Service was good,we were in and out.
