Had the DDD burger, brisket sandwich, 1/2 lb burger, pulled pork sandwich with mac and cheese, extremely well seasoned fries, baked beans, and Conecuh sausage as sides. Everything was delicious. All of the sauces were yummy, the staff was so friendly, and service was fast. There are some tables inside to sit and some picnic benches outside. Good portions of meat and great sweet tea. read more

The pulled pork was delicious. The staff were very friendly and they gave us a free banana pudding for dessert.

I wish I could give this 10 stars! I got the hamburger fully loaded with potato salad and my boyfriend got the ribs with beans and mac n cheese. The white sauce is to die for. A little runny but amazing vinegar taste. The ribs are slow cooked and so tender! Great rub on them! Mac n cheese has the shell pasta and loaded with cheese! The potato salad was great with the red potatoes! The beans were my favorite! It was Smokey and had pieces of meat in them! My favorite side! This place has pictures of DDD man himself! This was amazing and will definitely be back to try more! read more

Not what I expected for a highly recommend BBQ restaurant. Meat was dry. Beans we're nothing special. Average BBQ take out or dine in restaurant. Service was good. Restaurant is clean and organized. Will not return to try again. Not as advertised on TV Food Network. read more

Everything tasted truly amazing. The beans and the brisket sandwich was a 10/10. The fires were a little soggy, not fresh or crispy. The service was great and the store was clean. read more

Well I now have the best burger I have ever had, The DDD, named after Guy Fieri. Patty was thick and cooked to perfection and the candied rib, Lord help me. The sauces were very good. The white sauce blows away anything you can get in North Alabama. You order at a counter and they write your order out on a paper bag. My colleague and I sat outside and I know it was freshly cooked since it took a few minutes to get to us. The inside is unassuming as is the building but we did enjoy the outside seating. The baked beans were also good with shreds of pork mixed in. They had a slight spicy kick to them but was not overwelming. I highly recommend Meat Boss when in the area. read more

Meat Boss - Cottage Hill - DDD Burger. Doesn't look like much but it was so much I could barely finish it. - Barbeque Near Me - Mobile, Alabama

We LOVE Meat Boss and if it was closer to us we'd go probably every week. The ordering is super easy and it's usually very quick! Last time we went it wasn't quick, but I think we came in right before all the catering orders were due. My go to is chicken on a sweet bun with white BBQ sauce. Toppings: coleslaw, jalapeño jelly, pickles, cheese Sides: - Mac and cheese is good - boss beans are ok - fries are really good as long as their hot - sweet potato is always amazing - banana pudding isn't the best but hits the spot read more

We normally love Meat Boss so today decided to try the breakfast. It was very disappointing. Both were room temperature when we got home (10 minutes). We had paid extra for sausage gravy on mine and it was wasn't on there. read more

We went for my wifes high-school group that still get together regularly. The meats were awesome. She had the sweet potato with pulled chicken on top and Alabama white sauce. I had the pulled brisket on a round top roll with jalepeno jelly and sweet bbq sauce and fries. I really enjoyed my selection and the brisket was moist anf full of flavor. Her dish was very good but her potato was a bit over done but, tasty nonetheless. While we were there for the people, we found a lunch place that we will go back to over and over again. We will return. read more

Meat Boss - Cottage Hill - We took pictures outside. - Barbeque Near Me - Mobile, Alabama

I travel all over and have been to all of the top BBQ places in Texas Kansas City, Memphis and many in Alabama and North Carolina. This place ranks among the top. I ordered pulled pork, brisket, and turkey with boss beans and potato salad. All of the meats were well seasoned and cooked perfectly. And I can't forget the sauces, man! The white sauce mixed with the sweet is on a whole different level. The sides, although not ground breaking, were very very good. This place is a must try, especially if your a BBQ nut like myself. read more

Me and my daughter went in yesterday to get some takeout to meet my husband at the airport and eat. Everyone was very nice. The lady at the desk was so sweet to my daughter. The food service was very quick. The prices were good! I did not look at the food until we got to the airport and sat down to eat. I got my seven year-old two sliders thinking they would be small. No, they were like full-size sandwiches! I got me and my husband, both a barbecue pulled pork sandwich with pickles and regular barbecue sauce. They were so big we could've shared one! They were absolutely delicious. We had leftovers and I just ate another one out of the microwave a few minutes ago and it was still just as good as it was yesterday if not better! The baked beans were amazing!! they have pulled pork in them. They were my daughter's favorite. She ate all of them. I got a quart of banana pudding. It was probably the best banana pudding I've ever had. Besides my grandma's! My favorite part of a banana pudding is having lots of wafers in it and boy did it!! it was so good me and my husband ate all of the banana pudding within a few hours. It was my cheat day and it was well worth it!! 10/10 would absolutely recommend! We will be going back! They need one in Saraland. We don't have good BBQ here and I know it would do very well! Also it was such a cute establishment. They let kids draw on the paper bags and they hang them on the wall, super cute!! My new fave restaurant! read more

Love this place! They give you so much food. Today I had the monstrous bacon cheeseburger. I couldn't even finish it all. It was full of flavor and had a several slices of bacon! The baked beans were very tasty too. I can't wait to get back up there . read more

Some of the best bbq I've ever had. The brisket was the right combination of beef and fat with just the right amount of smoke.

Best burger EVER! Amazing service. Laid back ambiance what's not to love! We are regulars here and will continue to come back again and again. read more

Seen on DDD and knew we had to stop on our trip from Missouri to Gulf Shores. Food was great, Service was great. Had the shredded Brisket sandwich and Rib Candy. Brisket was perfectly cooked. Rib Candy was good, just you got more of it. Will stop again when we come thru. read more

Meat Boss - Cottage Hill - Pulled Brisket Sandwich with Rib Candy. Brisket is perfectly cooked. Rib Candy was good. - Barbeque Near Me - Mobile, Alabama

Visited this place based on several people recommending, was really disappointed. We had the brisket which was tender and well seasoned with sauce. Where this disappointed was the sides. They were below average for BBQ place. Baked beans were pork and beans from a can with some meat added. green beans were from a can with no seasoning at all. Potato salad was not seasoned and runny, potatoes were hard no taste. Cole slaw was the same no seasoning. Rib candy was delicious but over priced for what you received. Also there was not bread given on platters. I have lived all over the north and south and was disappointed- perhaps the expectation was too high. These are basics for BBQ. read more

Looking on YELP for a lunch place in Mobile and found Meat Boss. Local, friendly, and delicious. It was a beautiful January day so we ate outside at a picnic table. read more

The pulled pork is worth the drive! We loved everything about the experience and will definitely come again.

Saw this place on DDD and made a special trip to try it out. The barbecue was outstanding. We had the boss burger with rib candy and it was excellent. We got some sausage and my wife even loved it and she is not much of a sausage fan. We even bought their sampler package of spices and sauces. If you are within an hour or two definitely worth the trip. read more

Went by there yesterday and tried their Triple D burger that was featured on Food Network. It is a big burger with their rib candy on it plus you can get it in a combo with one of their sides and a drink. That was a lot of food so I shared it with my husband. It'd been a while since I'd stopped by and I appreciated how patient the person was who took my order and helped me with their order process. It's so clean and bright and the people who work there are so nice! read more

The Bottom Line: The Meat Boss is large and in charge when it comes to BBQ sandwiches. Would I drive over 7 miles outside Mobile to try some highly rated smoked meats? It does help when it's on my way to Biloxi. Walking in I was welcomed with walls adorned with license plates, and customer artwork drawn on the brown paper bags all their orders come in. Normally I order a plate of brisket to compare a BBQ joint against its peers but Meat Boss doesn't play like that. Instead they specialized in "make it your way" sandwiches. I ordered the pulled brisket with white sauce. The cashier suggested I also try the "rib candy." More on that shortly. Here's the rundown on my meal: Pulled Brisket: everything I wanted in a sandwich. The brisket was piled high and as a fan of white BBQ sauce (go Alabama) it paired well with the meat. Mac and Cheese: Your basic creamy macaroni and cheese shells. Potato Salad: Also in the creamy variety, a solid choice. Rib Candy: The cashier said this is what people travel from afar to get and I can understand why- it was the meat with the most flavor, a complex smoky and sweat combo. Maybe it was a good thing it was served in a small one ounce portion because I could have made that an entire side to my meal. What can I say? In a region where seafood and smoked meats rule large, the Meat Boss clearly owns the later. read more

Dude these are the best burgers in town. They don't taste too greasy. You're not going to find better food anywhere else. 1,000 stars

Super cute & delicious! So thankful for Yelp!! We would've never found this place if it wasn't for Yelpers! On our way from New Orleans to Fort Rucker and needed some lunch. Searched for places off hwy 65 and came across Meat Boss. Knew when we pulled up we were going to like it here! Not too crowded at 1:15 on a Thursday so that was nice. Hubby and I both got brisket on sweet rolls. Then we each fixed ours up completely differently. He got a combo with beans and Mac n cheese. We also ordered the meat candy. And I got a chocolate chip cookie. Everything single thing we got was delicious! I ate half of the cookie before our food came out. Then we both polished off our sandwiches. I had a bite of the meat candy and hubby ate the rest of that along with some of his sides. He couldn't eat it all but wanted to try it all. He said they were equally good and got about halfway through each side. Definitely a gem of a find. read more

In the mood for bbq and found this on Yelp. Reviews looked pretty promising so we decided to give it a try. Pulled up to what looked like a residential neighborhood to a little yellow cottage that housed the restaurant. The restaurant had some seating inside and picnic tables outside on the porch. Me and my husband were hungry after a long drive but decided to split the pulled pork sandwich with two sides. We added extra toppings slaw, pepper jack cheese, onions and pickles. We opted for the baked beans and mac n cheese for our side but had to order the additional banana pudding side for dessert. Your order comes in a brown bag lunch sack. How cool for the south. All the quality goes into the food and let me say it was all there and then some. The sandwich was large and had plenty of meat and the toppings were the perfect amount to compliment. We decided on the sweet and spicy and the white sauce. Both were excellent. The sweet and spicy was just perfect for me. Not to spicy and not to sweet but not to runny. The Mac and cheese was creamy and the cheese sauce was delicious. The baked beans were also very delicious. The banana pudding was tasty and just enough for the two of us to share. My regrets was that I didn't take any pics. We planned to stop by and get more bbq for our trip home. I have to say this is THE BEST bbq I have ever eaten. RUN DONT WALK to get yours. If you're the owner and reading this post, call me we should open a store in Evansville Indiana! read more

We have several people and all tried an each other's food. Loved the Rib Candy, Mac n cheese great, baked beans very good, fries nice and crispy, potato salad "white kind" mayo base I think was good. Smoked chicken good. I am not a big white sauce person but their white sauce was good. The pulled pork was tender but I am just not wild about the bbq sauce. The sweet sauce I didn't like at all. The sweet and spicy was ok. Service was good. Would like to try breakfast. read more

Fabulous food ! Awesome service and great location This barbecue would be had to beat ! read more

Driving from California to Florida you have to try different barbecue! Luckily for my son and I we chose "Meat Boss" about 10minutes off the 10fwy near Mobile. I ordered the pulled butte with fries and baked beans. My son ordered the pulled chicken (same sides).... These baked beans were to die for! So hearty. They could have been the main dish. My pulled butte was tender and juicy. No fat. I had the Carolina and Spicy Carolina sauces on the side. Both were very good but I liked the Spicy more. My son devoured his sandwich. The fries (baked not fried) were very well done! Not soggy or overcooked. Not too salty. We started a conversation with LeeAnn. She was a sweetheart. Talk about Southern hospitality. When she found out we were driving from California to Florida for my Coastie son, she brought us some traditional Alabama sausage and the Alabama sauce to try. The best surprise was the candied burnt ends. Wow were they amazing. If you are ever anywhere near the South!!!! Take a trip to Meat Boss! read more

Best smoked ribs I've ever had. Excellent pork and beans. Super pulled pork and chicken. Great barbecue sauce.

So incredibly good, we wanted to find a true southern bbq spot and this was it. We had the chicken, pork and brisket and everyone loved what they got. Was in between downtown Mobile and on our way to Belengrath gardens. We would have come again during our trip if we were staying closer. Worth a try for sure. read more

Best BBQ. So many options but the process of ordering makes it easy plus the staff is so patient and helpful. You order your meat, what you wrap it in (bun, no bun, potato), sauce, and toppings, then your side. Have to agree with reviews get the brisket or pulled pork...delicious. For sides we had beans, mac n cheese, coleslaw, and banana pudding. All delicious. Beans had bits of meat, mac n cheese creamy, coleslaw great on sandwiches or by itself not to sweet and hubby said banana pudding was good and creamy. We will definitely be back. It can get busy but they are fast and it is worth the wait. They have also expanded the dining room. A must try. Sorry no pics of food. We forgot and were so hungry. read more
