They offer a sample of their brisket. It is important that you say yes. :-) I got the 3 meat and side option. Around $30. Ribs - fall off the bone good. No sauce needed. Pork - excellent. Very smoky. Legit. I did use a little sauce - really just to try the sauce. I preferred the mustard based sauce. Brisket - fantastic! A near perfect brisket. Highly recommend.

Mac and cheese was our favorite side, extra cheesy with a heavy crust of cheese then we loved the baked beans. Sunday has fried chicken, was nice to find BBQ spot for a Sunday visit. Staff was friendly and good with suggestions. The spot is tucked in a corner of an older plaza, good news they are in process of a move to historic downtown Easley.

I know this is going to ruffle some feathers, but Smokin' Pig BBQ was an absolute yes for me…read more Let's start with the parking. We pulled in, found a spot immediately, and somehow survived the ordeal. Then the seating. My wife and I managed to endure the horrifying experience of sitting on a wooden bench while eating amazing barbecue. The restaurant was busy, which I foolishly interpreted as a sign that people enjoy eating there. As a couple, we spent around $50 and immediately regretted... not ordering more brisket. I was genuinely offended by how quickly it disappeared. The sauces were terrible if your goal is choosing just one. I kept going back for "one more taste" until I had sampled all of them multiple times. Now the food... Lord, the brisket. Moist, smoky, and somehow the complete opposite of everything I was warned about. The mac and cheese was great, the baked beans were great, and the sweet potato crunch actually had crunch. The only reason I'm giving this place five stars is because Yelp won't let me give six. Left disappointed in only one thing: that I don't live closer.

The Smoking Pig in Easley has some really great food. It's really good. But it's also very…read moreexpensive. And that is not a problem really, it's the mandatory tips you have to pay. I always tip when we go out to eat inside a restaurant. Not while going through a drive thru! You shouldn't have to tip just for someone to hand you your food out of a window. And this mandatory tip in the drive thru is multiple choice so the amount isn't even up to you really. I ask for the total when I called it in. What if that amount I was told over the phone was all I had? Would I not have gotten my food because I couldn't pay the tip? It's ridiculous. It's like giving out participation trophies. I don't like it. You shouldn't have to tip going through a drive thru unless you want to.

Although the portions were a good size, I couldn't get over how the pork was so bland tasting! When you think of going to eat at a BBQ place, you'd think their meat would be smoked or seasoned at least. But it wasn't & at all & it was SO dry! The sides & different types of bbq sauces were great. Just wish there were more options than just pork or chicken.

There were several other sandwich options that I want to try so I'll definitely be back!
