    This is one of my favorite barbecue restaurants in Denton, Texas U.S.A., the Home of Happiness and my Forever Home, since the year 1968, when we Fearings arrived in Denton, Texas, U.S.A. The Zesty Saint Louis, MO recipes are skillfully applied to cooking Pork, Chicken, and imparting a signature dose of smoky Nirvana. Affiliated with serial entrepreneur Ken Currin, of the nearby Greenhouse Bar & Restaurant fame. Remember, always tip graciously and in that way, effectively Pay it Forward to those humans that prepare your delectable and delicious meats and sides. Cheers, Mark C. Fearing, Ph.D.

    If Denton had a crap bbq spot, it would be better than suicy pig. Two families own almost every restaurant real estate spot in Denton. This place is one of them. The only competition was ran out by raising the rent so high, they had no choice. To this very day Denton still has NO bbq.

    Outstanding bbq. The jackfruit was a stand out for me. Excellent taste and texture. Hint of sweet but perfect. Sliced brisket very good. Great smoke rings and flavor. Ribs were a 10! Green beans on point. Habanero sausage was enough to make your nose drip. Loved it.

    Loved the food and loved the vibe! This place had a great menu and the food was delicious. Outdoor space was awesome and indoor space was cozy. Juan took great care of us and walked us through the whole menu since it was our first time.

    I've been driving past this place for years and always say I was gonna try it. Well me and the Hubbs finally decided ti try it out. You can order inside or out. There is I think one table and a bar style table with tall chairs that faces out the back window. It smells amazing, the bbq smell slaps you across the face when you open the door. We both ordered the Turkey Palooza Sandwich and two drinks. Be prepared it is expensive.. but good golly it's soooo goood! The meat just falls apart and melts in your mouth. There are I believe 3 different sauces you can choose from and we tried them all.. all were good. Just be prepared that the prices are high.. but you get hogh quality meat with really good flavor! We will be back again soon.

    In an area known for great barbecue, this is a great place with awesome food. People are nice and super friendly.

    came here with a friend while visiting from the east coast and we had a great lunch! the jackfruit was literally melt in your mouth and the mac was great as well. staff was very friendly and it was an unexpected treat getting to enjoy a piece of 'texas cuisine' as a vegetarian!! :)

    Nonsense, straightforward BBQ. With the right smith of smokiness to it and their JP sauce to accompany. The team is super nice, with a big easy smile are ready to help newbies like me decide. Grab your food and head to the picnic tables outside and enjoy the day.. giving you an easy countryside feeling of dusty roads.

    Are there certain days you serve the beef ribs? We are coming from Hawaii in November and my husband loves good BBQ but even more he loves beef ribs!! I want to surprise him with your restaurant when we are there.

    Hi Camille! We serve beef ribs Thursdays-Sundays. Just be aware that these are prone to sell out. If you can't make it until the evening, we would be happy to reserve a couple for you if you give us a call early in the day.

    How much is a bag of Chips before tax? On the Sandwich Combo can u subsitute the Chips for a another side order and Gumbo if so how much would the upcharge be?

    Hi Gregory, a bag of chips is $1.50 before tax. On the sandwich combo, no substitutions can be made. We would, at that point, ring everything in a la carte.

    Had a horrible recent experience, and we will not return. I ordered a #4 (5 wing combo) and was…read morelater told I wasn't charged for the fries. I'm not sure how that happens when ordering a combo (I paid $9.31 and the combo was $9.99), but I didn't want to make a fuss since I knew it wasn't the $10.81 with tax (I thought she gave me a student discount or something) and was open to paying whatever difference. I DID chuckle though, thinking, 'they really want this $1.00 and some change,' but I charged it to economy-- and hard times. However, I was told the fries would be an additional $2.59, which is full price. Huh? I attempted to gain understanding, which I'm sure the pressure for the additional money was coming from the man cooking vs. the lady as the messenger, but didn't understand and wasn't paying full price. Fast forward to receiving food, I was told they allowed a 1/2 order of fries since I didn't purchase them. I was done. Chyle... food was terrible. Honey mustard wings were overcooked, tasteless and drowned in sauce. My "free" 1/2 order of fries were cooked too hard for the size. No one in our party was impressed and we felt the food was extremely bland (mind you we ordered a bit of everything). Upon leaving we went straight to Jersey Mike's. This used to be a place we'd frequent if in the area, but it's gone further downhill. It's sad because we love family owned restaurants--but we will not return.

    Unique tasting wings. Small, but have a very god original flavor. Must try place in Denton.read more
