Let's start with the good. The service was great and it was clean. We should have known by no one being in the parking lot that it was not going to be a good experience. We got the pulled pork sandwich, (the only tolerable item to eat) and the 2 meat combo with brisket & ribs. The sides were corn bread l, Mac & beans. The brisket was so dry, as shown in the photo and the ribs couldn't even been chewed off or cut off if we tried. They have two bbq sauces a smoked bbq sauce and a mustard sauce. No plain or basic bbq sauces. That could have made the pork a bit better. The Mac n cheese was good but came out cold. The beans tasted odd, then I looked at the menu and saw that they were vegetarian. Interesting. Lastly the cornbread... I couldn't believe it. It was soaked in some kind of hunny sauce. That was so sweet, if it was just the cornbread it would have tasted better. This is a hard pass. Sorry. Way too many places around to get good bbq. read more

We had a good lunch here. You order and pay at the counter and they bring your food to you -- no numbers. And they clear the tables, too. We both ordered a small platter. He got the pulled pork with collard greens and beans. He liked it all. I tried his sides and they were great. I got the small brisket platter. There were only two slices of meat on the plate -- looked quite skimpy especially after removing the fatty edge. The meat was a bit dry and needed help -- by adding some of the sweet bbq sauce. I wouldn't order the brisket again. For my sides, I got the shells Mac n cheese. That was creamy. I liked it. And I got the sticky corn bread. That was a bit too sweet. I'd get it plain next time, if I got it again. We shared a sweet tea. I didn't care for it at all. There was so much honey flavor in it that it was almost thick and cloying. Not refreshing at all. I'd get a soda next time. For someone who loves sweet, I was surprised to ever find "too sweet" in my vocabulary. But I'd definitely come back to try the ribs or the pork. The pastrami sounds intriguing, but they don't always have it and it's not available on a set schedule. I asked about it and was told to call to see if they had it that day. But the lemony collards and beans will definitely be added into my future visit. read more

Mistah Lee's Smokin Good Bbq - Combo Platter! Ribs, Brisket and White meat chicken. - Barbeque Near Me - Boynton Beach, Florida

Small but smoking! This little place slipped in this strip of stores on 441 and has all the charm and flavors of Texas and NC BBQ rolled up into one. We ordered the three meet plates with Ribs of the day (St Louis today) Brisket and smoked sausage that were perfectly made dry rub with choice of Sweet bbq or Mustard bbq sauce on the side on your plate. We went with the amazing beans and coleslaw, just so good I wanted to lick the bowl of the beans they were so good. Tried the cornbread that was smothered In a sweet butter. This is a place I could spend every week trying something new out of the smoker. We had a chance to meet Mistah Lee who was so gracious. He had us try his Smoked Pastrami Rib that was so full of flavor and so tender that you pulled the meat right of of the bone. We will have to make this a regular spot for us since it is nearby. indoor for a ouple of dozen folks to sit and outdoor seating. walk up to the counter and choose your next plater of meat! read more

I have been eagerly following Lee Stransky's Mistah Lee's on Facebook waiting for the opening of his first restaurant in the new Melrose Shoppes in Boynton Beach. Lee has been operating out of food truck and he has won many awards including readers choice for Best BBQ in the Sun Sentinel's Best of South Florida Dining series along with wins at the St. Pete Bacon & BBQ Festival and The Red Meat Lovers Club Best Sandwich of South Florida cook-off. Lee finally posted on Facebook a come on down until we are sold out on Presidents Day and I headed over for some amazing BBQ. When I arrived the line was out the door but this BBQ was worth the wait. The restaurant is small but there is additional seating out front. You order at the counter and they give you a number that they call out when your food is ready. I ordered the pulled pork plate that comes with two sides. I picked the sticky corn bread and macaroni and cheese. The meat was some of the best pulled pork I have ever had. There was no fat at all, just succulent meat seasoned and smoked to perfection and made even more delicious by the drizzle of sweet BBQ sauce. The macaroni and cheese made with shell pasta was rich and creamy and the light cornbread with a sticky sweet drizzle tasted more like a delightful dessert. Lee was on hand overseeing everything personally and he is such a nice guy. I wish him success in his newest endeavor and I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu. Based on the turnout tonight he is going to be busy for a long time. read more

I wanted soooo badly to like this place. My husband found them online and has been asking ever since, he even had me follow them on social media so he could salivate over it. Beautiful and clean establishment, got there around 6pm and there were a few people eating and coming to place to go orders. We got the 3 meat platter with double brisket and pulled pork, half a rack of ribs, cornbread, mac and cheese, coleslaw and potato salad. All to go, but a pretty wide selection.... At first my husband was sad that they had no Alabama white sauce and only gave 2 sauces for our whole order. I'm not sure if we caught them on a bad day. (And based on the reviews that really must be it) But to keep it polite - the cornbread was phenomenal and if I had to go back I would just get the cornbread and pulled pork. The brisket was dry and tough, the mac was soggy (like the shells were mushy goo), the ribs were dry and stuck in your teeth chewy. For a $100 meal we were super disappointed. But like I said - Phenomenal cornbread. read more

My husband and I recently stopped by Mistah Lee's Smokin' Good BBQ, and it was delicious! This spot is fairly new, and from the moment we walked in, everyone was so nice and polite -- you can really feel the pride they take in what they do. My husband had the pulled pork sandwich with a side of mac and cheese and enjoyed every bite. I went with the house smoked sausage sandwich, and it even came with a little extra sausage on the side -- such a great touch. The flavor was spot on, and the cornbread? Like dessert -- sweet, moist, and unforgettable. The portions are generous, the food is clearly made with love, and the service was just as warm as the food. As for the ambiance, it's a quick-serve setup -- you order at the counter and they bring the food to you. If you're looking for good food without the full sit-down restaurant experience, this is your place. We'll definitely be back -- and you should absolutely add Mistah Lee's to your must-try list! read more

Finally got to check out Mistah Lee's new location (8240 FL-7) with none other than Ellen Fried, South Florida's Queen of Pastrami. I never got a chance to try his truck before, so this was the perfect intro. The restaurant is tucked into a brand-new plaza off Route 7, a few minutes north of Bedner's, right next to the new How Ya Doughn pizza spot. What We Ate: *Reuben: 8oz of smoked brisket pastrami on great rye bread. We had to ask for extra kraut and Russian dressing because the sandwich is all about the meat. The pastrami was tender, smoky, strong on coriander, but I personally prefer a heavier peppery spice. Still, very high quality. *Brisket: Good smoke, tender, but the deckle piece needed more bark. *Ribs: These were the standout -- excellent seasoning, bold smoke, and cooked "fall-off-the-bone" style (which most folks will love). *Chicken: Smoky, but needed a stronger rub. *Pulled Pork: Lee gave me a sample -- very good. I'd get a pork sandwich next time. Sides: *Mac and cheese (sharp cheddar, creamy) and mustardy potato salad were both winners. *Collard greens were sweet and vinegary -- not my favorite, but some will like the contrast. Sauces: While I'm more of a dry rub person, I liked the South Carolina mustard sauce much better than the Western Carolina blackstrap molasses version, which was too sweet for me. Pricing: *3-meat platter is $50 -- includes 24oz of meat + two small sides. *Sandwiches run $16-$25 and come with one side. *Pro tip: if you're sharing, ordering individual meat plates separately actually gets you more sides for just a few bucks more. Overall: Would definitely come back -- next time I'll focus more on the pulled pork and ribs. High-quality meats, good smoke, great sides. Just know going in that Lee's style leans a little lighter on the rubs compared to hardcore BBQ spots, but the skill and care are 100% there. read more

I had read about Mistah Lee's Smokin Good BBQ months ago but it took them forever to open. Went on a Saturday night around 7 and found that they were out of pastrami, sausage, and chicken. need to return to try those items. Ordered the 2-Meat Platter and comes with a choice of Brisket, Rib of the Day, 1/4 Chicken, Pulled Pork, or Sausage. Got the pulled pork and ribs, both very good. Also choice of 2 sides; Mac & Cheese, Collard Greens, Caesar Salad, Honey Maple Baked Beans, Cole Slaw, Potato Salad, and Sticky Cornbread. Chose the Mac n Cheese for my wife who thought it was dry and Honey Maple Baked Beans for me, very good. Next time, I''ll call first to see what items they have. read more

Excellent food and service. Will be returning very soon to try some of the meat I didn't get to this time!!! Decor took a little getting used to....not your typical BBQ joint decor!!!! This place is all bright & shiny, but don't let that fool ya!!!! This bbq is the REAL DEAL!!!! read more

Aweful. After reading all the positive reviews, I had to double check and make sure I went to the same restaurant, and sure enough I did. First off I spent $127 including a tip for takeout. I got a half rack of ribs, a whole rack of ribs, some brisket, what was supposed to be a chicken breast, but they didn't have any so they gave me a quarter of chicken. And some cornbread. The ribs were covered in what looked like thick peppercorns no dry rub just the most awful seasoning I've ever tasted . And it was spicy, which was strange. The brisket was edible. The chicken was not good. The macaroni and cheese, which is huge shells had a weird cheese and seasoning to it. The beans now those were actually excellent, and the cornbread was good. Definitely one and done would never go back there. read more

Shout out to Mistah Lee and his staff for the amazing food and hospitality. Best BBQ in South Florida. I tried a 2 meat platter with brisket and ribs. Seasoning and cook on both was perfect. Sides was cornbread and Mac and cheese. Cornbread was satisfying. Mac makes me a happy fat kid. Mistah Lee personally made my mom and I feel like VIPs. Can't wait to come back and try everything else on the menu. read more

Finally made it to MISTAH LEE'S SMOKIN' GOOD BBQ in Boynton on 441 just north of BB Blvd. It's world-class championship 'cue. (Nuff said!) Got brisket, ribs and chicken with collards, beans, slaw and cornbread -- all superb. Super-friendly staff. (The mighty Lee Stransky was out judging a competition.) Got there about twenty minutes after opening at three and they were sold out by six, so govern yourself accordingly. read more

I saw this guy out and about one day and had to pull over and try his bbq. This man does real deal bbq. You can not find anything else like this in southern palm beach county, boca to lantana. I'd consider real low and slow smoked Bbq to be my favorite food. He cares and it shows. I chose 1 thing for my wedding , his brisket. The rest was up to my wife! He delivered when he could have easily said no as he didn't have a kitchen at the time due to moving into a new restaurant. He supplied probably 2-4x food I would have got for the same cost from other restaurants. Check em out. I've had everything he's offered , except the collard greens , and it's all been exceptional. But brisket and ribs are my favorite thing to eat and he absolutely nails it. Any family gathering I'm in charge of , we eat his food now. read more

Amazing bbq! Definitely recommend! Please go check them out, you will not regret it! Everything was so tender and juicy I will be back ! read more

If heaven has bbq this is probably it. The food is out of this world. This is the best bbq I ever have. Can't wait for this place to open a restaurant spot. However please follow him on facebook so you can come to support. The guy cooks w a passion. The meat so tender and juicy. Smoke for 12 hrs straight. Super delicious. This must be my top three best meals I have ever had. My favorite is the golden beans as side. I could have that on everything. The cornbread soak w syrup. Sweat and savory. This made me want to film a TikTok but I don't have a TikTok account. read more

Food especially the brisket was really excellent. The sides were also very good. Everything ready right in time.

I've read the reviews, and lived in Texas, so, was kinda optimistic. This is the real deal, brisket was outstanding, loved the ribs and for the first time was impressed with the mac n cheese, baked beans and cornbread. Excellent service, def coming back, strongly recommend!!!! read more

I almost regret posting this review. Because I'm afraid it'll be to a point where there will be lines out the door. This has to be the absolute best barbecue I've had in a very, very, very long time. This is real barbecue no liquid smoke no gimmicks real down to earth barbecue. With a real life pitmaster. This was my first time here and I can tell you it won't be my last. This is definitely a must try Place. read more

Service was awesome! I got the pulled chicken and macaroni and cheese bowl with bbq sauce on side. I also ordered corn bread on side. The chicken was absolutely amazing!!! Macaroni and cheese was definitely good. Not a fan of corn bread (only because I didn't like glaze I think) but definitely yummy bbq and that's the important part! Cute little place too! read more

O. M. G. I am floored. I am a foodie, I am very critical of food quality. I am also an avid cook. I needed dinner for my two boys and I and needed something not expensive. Mistah Lee's was offering a bogo brisket sandwich. I was sooo skeptical, even though they have great reviews. My order went through 40 minutes before they closed. This was so so delicious. The brisket was the most tender and flavorful I've ever had, soft bun, perfect amount of sauce. Mac and cheese delicious, coke slaw fresh and not too much mayo. We only had the brisket sandwich but it was the best bbq I've had in this are. Love love read more

This place is amazing! The restaurant is clean and welcoming, the staff is so kind, and the FOOD IS UNREAL. The best ribs in Florida, hands down. It's fantastic to support a locally owned bbq joint, make sure you visit!! read more

WOW! This was my first time visiting Mistah Lee's. And let me say that was the best brisket I've ever had! Me and my son ordered the 1/2lb brisket which comes with two sides. The brisket was so tender and the sauce that was accompanied by the dish complimented the brisket beautifully. One of our sides was the cornbread which was nice and moist and had like a brown sugar honey on it. DELIGHTFUL! My husband had the chicken sandwich the chicken for his sandwich was a just as tender! 10/10 The service was amazing as well. Really great team! Very helpful and informative with the menu and any questions we had. They made us feel really welcomed. Mistah Lee's is the place to be! :) read more

I went today for the first time. It lived up to the hype. All the food was bursting with flavor. The ribs were so good, tender, great Texas-style flavor with bold pepper flavors coming through. The brisket was flavorful and tender. I wish it was sliced thicker but I should have asked for thicker slices. The chicken was tender and full of flavor. I was so happy they had smoked sausage that wasn't spicy, it allowed me to enjoy this great treat. The baked beans had a great depth of flavor, with notes of molasses and bourbon. If they added chunks of brisket to the baked beans, they would have a hit. The mac and cheese had a smokey flavor and creaminess while not being mushy. The sticky cornbread turns heads in our household. Everyone loved it, which is rare amongst my four picky eaters. I can't wait to go back! The restaurant was clean with a fun appearance. The staff was so friendly and even made recommendations on how I could get more food for less by getting a family feast. It is great to see a business looking out for its customers. read more

Everything nice about it including the price. I will go back. And it right on 441 North of Boynton Beach Blvd

Happy to have a new option in the area. Food was good, staff was great! Ribs were meaty and fell off the bone the way they should. Only complaint was regarding their quesadilla. It comes with their spicy bbq sauce in it and on it, but nowhere does the menu tell you it's going to be spicy. Kids tend to gravitate to a quesadilla so making it spicy with no indication was not fun. Had we known we would have asked for their regular bbq sauce which was delicious! Welcome to the area! Thanks for giving us another option. Something we lack around here. read more

Tried Mistah Lee's at Tasty Tuesdays food truck night last Tuesday evening and was blown away. The owner, Lee, is very dedicated to BBQ and it shows with his many accolades and awards. Everything we ordered was on point and my kids all said it was Bussin'. We rated many of the items a 10 on our YouTube Food vlog. We were filming at TT in West Boca and reviewed a ton of restaurants, including Mistah Lee's. Check us out on YT at our Muk Daddy Mukbang channel and see the whole review. You will not be disappointed! Thank you Lee! The kids and I will be back and can't wait to film you prepping the food. Best of luck with your new brick and mortar restaurant as well! read more

Wow! I've had BBQ all over the country and Mistah Lee's is simply the best there is!

These guys are leaping from an award winning food truck to a fast casual restaurant that sure to chalk up many more accolades! Mistah Lee's BBQ is well worth the wait! read more
