Love this place! They always have good BBQ with a mustard and vinegar selection and extra sauce for either. The sides are standard for a buffet but still good. The mac and cheese is AMAZING! My daughter always loves the chocolate pudding and banana pudding options for dessert. read more

Very good barbecue The banana pudding is great also. Good place to eat and visit with family

I really like South Carolina style barbecue, and The Music Man in Monck's Corner, about 40 minutes from Charleston, does it up right. While there are only a handful of reviews for this place on line, they're all fairly glowing with praise. I even read one that compares this place in quality to Sweatman's, a comparison I can neither refute nor second, as we made the pilgrimage there last night only to find them closed for the Thanksgiving weekend. Drats. Anyway, we drove over to The Music Man in the charming village of Monck's Corner for lunch today and enjoyed some very good barbecue. Barbecue in the Carolinas means chopped pork. Often places will use just the shoulder, but they smoke the whole hog here...just the way God intended, according to their website. We are definitely for the whole hog approach to barbecue, as it produces incomparable juiciness and flavor. The Music Man is a buffet (they seem to really like their buffets in SC), and you get some wonderful sides with your meal here. Today the choices were lima beans, okra with stewed tomatoes, candied yams, mac and cheese, creamy coleslaw and potato salad. The mac and cheese and candied yams were off the hook, and we both liked the slaw. They offer chopped pork done in two sauces, vinegar and the traditional South Carolina mustard barbecue sauce, plus broiled chicken, ribs and cracklins. I fully expected to like the mustard sauce, but took some of the vinegar sauced pork too, and this was great. You can top your 'cue with more sauce at the end of the line, and I really like this vinegar sauce. There was something about it that made me want more...just delicious. The ribs were tender enough, but we weren't bowled over by them. We wouldn't go back for them, but we liked the chopped pork and the sides enough to return. To finish your meal, do not overlook the bread pudding. It rocks. They put raisins and apples in it, and it has a wonderful brown sugar flavor. Yum. read more

Moncks Corner has several BBQ joints and Music Man is worth the drive if you are doing a survey of low country BBQ. It's all you can eat buffet for $10.50. Pulled pork with mustard and pepper-vinegar choices. Excellent smoked chicken. Old school mac and cheese is always on the buffet as well as rice and hash, slaw and desserts. Solid and dependable quality. read more

Great BBQ pulled pork., chicken and ribs. All of their food is great. The service is excellent. They offer steak night once a month on the second Wed. of each month. The steaks are great and the live music is even better. You cannot go wrong eating here. read more

We're big fans of the South Carolina barbecue buffet and this one is right up there with Duke's in Walterboro for me. The barbecue is pretty good, they use the whole hog. The pork is divided in two pans, one with vinegar and one with mustard. I liked them both but the vinegar stole the show. It was a little spicy and had a little mustard and other spices as well. The sides were terrific. I had yams, mac and cheese, slaw, hash and all were really good. For desert, you just can't pass on the bread pudding. Apples and raisins aren't traditional and there isn't a hard sauce but this version is going to leave a smile on your face. All this for $10/ person. Don't pass up a chance to eat here while in the Charleston area. read more

Best BBQ in Berkeley County! Music Man offers an all you can eat buffet with straight home cooking: BBQ ribs, string beans, chicken, pulled pork, rice, hash. Very laid back atmosphere with super friendly service. read more

It as a trek from Charleston, where I once lived, but the journey was well worth it. I think the quality of the sweatman's ribs were better, but the variety and quality of the sides at sweatman's is no comparable. For 7.95/person you get all you can eat ribs, pulled pork, chicken, a large variety of sides AND sweet tea. I think that week rice, has, pasta, sweet potatoes, collard greens, etc. It really is home cooked goodness. read more

I am a huge fan of South Carolina barbecue and Music Man does it right! It is all buffet, with hot and cold bars. The 'cue is pulled pork (two styles - vinegar and mustard sauced), chicken pieces, and ribs. The pulled pork sauces both have nice flavor, with the vinegar having just a little more kick! The buffet "side" choices are awesome - green beans, mac 'n' cheese, okra and peppers, rice, hash, potato salad, coleslaw, and sweet yams - to name the mainstays. For dessert, they have chocolate and banana puddings, as well as a wonderful hot bread pudding! The sweet tea is as good as it comes, and the servers keep your glass constantly filled. I have lots of favorite BBQ joints in SC, and Music Man BBQ is definitely one of them! Oh yeah, they do have a Steak Night on every 2nd Wednesday of the month. And they are open on Sundays from 11 AM to 2 PM!!! BBQ Brunch anyone??? read more

My wife and I went to eat lunch the food was bland and the pulled pork tasted like vinegar. There was no flavor to the food. I thought the price was too high for the quality of the food. read more

This place is the bomb. We stopped here on a whim. Best meal I had in the Carolinas. The mustard BBQ sauce is out if this world. Can they bottle it? Pulled pork is phenomenal. Limited hours do check before coming. You won't be disappointed. read more

Tried for the first time and was not disappointed. Nothing was greasy or dry and lived the hash.

After hearing so much about music man I finally had the opportunity to try it. Disappointed. BBQ looked like it was reheated from previous day in the microwave. Hash was good a little on the sweet side but good, water downed rice. Sweet potatoes were the best thing on the buffett. Nice atmosphere yet poor service staff. Waitress sat us and got our drinks and never seen her again, not exaggerated. In the short interaction with her, she was very unfriendly and rude. I was so excited to try this joint however was let down, and in south Carolina there are plenty of other options. read more

I love coming here ! The people are always so nice even the costumers , the food is always fresh and so good. Great bbq place in Moncks Corner to take your family read more

I did not like it! The BBQ sauce was nasty! The food reminded me of the schools cafeteria!

This is authentic southern BBQ, buffet. All you can eat. All your normal favorites. Real local feel. Zach really liked the Mac-n-cheese. 4 desserts but what do you need other than banana pudding ... Well Oreo pudding was good as well. They kept the food full and hot. Friendly service. Nothing not to like (except that Siri didn't exactly get is here, one road too many but not hard to find. read more

Best Bar-B-Q in Berkeley County. Thursday lunch has fried catfish ! I like the divey atmosphere ! Super nice and friendly at a good price. Parking sucks ! read more

Great place and reasonably priced. Thoroughly enjoyed the barbecue and discovered SC Hash for the first time! It's really good. The flavor kind of reminds me of Brunswick Stew but a little sweeter. Would love the recipe! If I'm ever in the Moncks Corner area again, I will definitely come back to Music Man's BBQ! read more

Absolutely the BEST BAR B QUE in SOUTH CAROLINA. Moncks Corner doesn't have many Restaurants, but they don't really need any since they have MUSIC MAN. All good, Pulled Pork, Ribs, Chicken, and on Friday's, the BEST FRIED CHICKEN you've ever had. Worth the drive, I don't cate where you live ! read more

Best BBQ around. Good service and friendly people. The pulled pork is very good as well as the mustard sauce! The mac n cheese is the best I've had at a restaurant and the hash is delicious. read more

Great food. We didn't realize it was a buffet before we got there but stayed and ate too much.

The food is darn tasty and it's all at a great price. The employees are very friendly. It's like being at home.

The buffet here is very good. This was the second time here and we were not disappointed. The fried fish,BBQ,and macaroni and cheese were wonderful. Service is efficient and friendly. read more

First time eating at Music Man's BBQ last night. Good food. I definitely got my money's worth.

Their BBQ is out of this world. The To Go Plates? Feed Two. Wish they were open the whole week. Their veggies are generic and so are their desserts. But, the BBQ makes you forget that. read more

I passed through Monck's Corner in June and saw Music Man's Bar-B-Que in a small run of shoppes across from the railroad tracks through town. What a nice town. In a hurry, I decided to just get a BBQ sandwich with slaw and tea. It was VERY good. As soon as I entered, I was warmly greeted and it was busy, about noon. I asked for a chopped BBQ sandwich with slaw, which constitutes a sandwich with 1 side. They offer their BBQ tossed in either a vinegar or mustard based sauce, but it is not runny or overbearing. I requested the vinegar based Q. As I waited, a group was finishing lunch and I began talking with one of the group. She told me the place was started by a fellow who played in a band with friends in high school and they have been playing ever since, often there in the restaurant, hence the name. I chatted with others and all said they loved the food here. When my order arrived, the woman asked what sauce I got. I hadn't requested one, so she told the cashier to get me some of the mustard sauce, her favorite, and they brought a small container. I picked out a piece of just the meat to try first. The meat flavor was very good. I really like that they do not over-sauce the meat, though I prefer sauce completely on the side.The meat was more coarsely chopped, some pieces pulled, so it remained very moist. It was very nicely smoked and I thought the vinegar and pepper were a good compliment to the meat. It was very tender and juicy. I didn't think the meat needed any additional sauce at all. The slaw tasted fresh and was good though a tad sweet. For a BBQ sandwich, I really liked this one. It was also a pretty good sized sandwich. Before adding the mustard sauce they'd given me, I gave it a taste. I really didn't care for it. It was a bold honey-mustard sauce and I think it would really mask the flavor of the meat. So I left it off. Nice that they provide options though. Music Man's offers a lot of southern comfort foods and has a full buffet which most of the patrons seem to go for. All I spoke to said the ribs and chicken were excellent, and they have a "steak night" which is very popular. They also have live music some nights. Based on the BBQ and the atmosphere, I will be back to try the other offerings. For the BBQ itself, I think a 4 to 4.5 is appropriate. Visited June 2015 read more

Best BBQ in Moncks Corner with an awesome buffet to boot! It's a very laid back atmosphere with the small town feel you'd expect in Moncks Corner. Definitely the best bbq in town! read more

It was steak night, which evidently isn't a every day thing so it's limited menu, reservation only. But....the gentleman up front said they would make room for me, found a lovely family that welcomed me to their table. The ribeye was large and perfectly prepared. The music was good. I only regret that I will probably never find myself here again. read more

Great atmosphere once a month steak night is a must.prime rib or choice of steak plus live band enjoyed immensely. Friday lunch fried chicken like grandma makes awesome place read more
