Phenomenal food and service! Best BBQ joint I have ever been too. We got the Mac and cheese, poutine, onion rings, pulled pork, bbq ribs, chicken wings and sausages all cooked to perfection and seasoned well. read more

Pig Out Bbq - Barbeque Near Me - Pickering, Ontario

We've been having a craving for some good smoked beef brisket... Here was what we tried: 1x Pull Pork Sandwich (close to $9) 1x Bone Rib Sandwich (close to $10)- No Bone 1x Lb of Smoke Beef Brisket Medium Fat ($24/lbs) You can pick your sauce for each one like sweet, spicy or smokey... We chose one sweet and both smokey... Pull pork sandwich has a nice soft bun and the pull pork was decent.. A tad dry but still decent sandwich... Bone Rib sandwich same bun but had some chunky meat cuts in sandwich along with some small tendons...Decent sandwich again, but I'm not a fan of tendon personally...I believe there was some red onions as well which gave some crunch to the sandwich. Smoke Beef Brisket- This is one of their staple dishes and we got this specifically to add to our sandwich or eat with rice...This has nice tender medium fat and tasty... This is likely our favourite out of the bunch... I've been to other bbq joint where the beef brisket pricing was a little lower... Food: 3.75/5 Pricing: 3.5/5 read more

I've finally found it! The tastiest BBQ in the east end. I'm all about really good BBQ with great ingredients and Pig Out delivers! The Pulled Pork sandwich has to be one of my favourites! The Pulled Pork is succulent & has tons of flavour! You can also choose Smokey, sweet or spicy BBQ sauce on top. I wish the Coleslaw was house made, but not everyone is perfect. The Mac & Cheese also needs more cheese. The pulled pork poutine is fabulous! I was so impressed. Crispy Fries, Excellent Gravy, Tons and tons of Pulled Pork. I also really enjoyed their onion rings. Lastly the Boneless Rib sandwich was Bombtastic, the sauce was great, there wasn't a lot of fat. I was thoroughly impressed! I will definitely be back to try more BBQ. Keep Eating, Angela read more

I've been here many times and have always enjoyed the food, whether it's been the ribs, chicken, wings, brisket, pulled pork, or whatever special they've offered. It's been all good but I have to mention the Pig Out Burger. It's quite possibly my all-time favourite burger. It starts with an 8 ounce beef patty and gets topped with a slice of beef brisket and an onion ring. Yummm!!! Ask for lots of napkins. If a burger isn't your thing, try the pulled pork or the ribs or the wings. I like to mix the sweet and the spicy BBQ sauces. Nice combination. The atmosphere is cozy and they have a collection of pig figurines that could be conversation starters. read more

Good value and every dish we got was a winner! Even the coleslaw, fries and pickles are impressive.

Ordered on Uber Eats. Tiniest burger ever. Was not stated anywhere that it was a small burger. Small portion of fries too. As you can see from the pictures I've uploaded with this the fries and burgers were mashed together in a bag. It honestly looked gross and unappealing. But wait, it gets worse, I took a bite of my burger and some parts were RAW. Literally the grossest thing ever. They're suppose to be smash burgers, which btw almost never come out a little raw. They're thin Pattie's so literally how can it be raw inside. It was $22.95 for one burger btw!! Just for a tiny burger with barely any fries. read more

Put on those stretchy pants, you're going to need them. Pig Out BBQ does not hold back. Four of us went there for my Mom's birthday. We seated ourselves and began scouring the menu for meals. The décor was simple and tasteful. We were told to go hungry, very very hungry. Upon reading the meaty menu, we decided to share the Pig Out Platter; it said it serves 4. 4 what I don't know, because there was no way we were finishing it. This platter had almost every type of meat they serve! It arrived on 2 large platters; we ended up moving to a table that seats 6 to fit all the food. Everything on the platter had a delicious smoky flavour that our server said they smoke all of their meat in-house. All of the meat was so tender, you barely had to chew. This was not a bad thing because by the end, you were so full, chewing was a chore. The ribs were fantastic; tangy and smoky. The brisket could only be moved to your plate with a spoon. It was so tender, it literally melted in your mouth. The pulled pork came in a pile topped with sauteed onions(OMFG) and BBQ sauce. This was probably my favourite meat on the platter. The chicken wings were good, but I'd never had smoked wings before. It was ok. The summer sausage was also fantastically smoked. I stuck with the pork....there may have been some growling, but I did share.... The platter came with coleslaw, pickles and 3 sides which turned into 4. We ordered baked beans, sweet potato fries and poutine, but they forgot the poutine and brought fries, so they brought a poutine as well. SO MUCH FOOD. The stars of the many sides were the sweet potato fries and the baked beans. The baked beans were sweet and cooked perfectly. These were the best sweet potato fries I'd ever eaten. We had to wrestle them from my boyfriend. Needless to say, neither of them ended up in the doggy bag. This BBQ joint has an easy going atmosphere with great service and melt in your mouth food to match! If you're out in Pickering, stop into Pig Out BBQ. You will be back for more! read more

Pig Out Bbq - Half of a Pig Out Platter - Barbeque Near Me - Pickering, Ontario

No way i am going to rate this restaurant any less than 5 stars. Spacious, stroller friendly, welcoming staff, awesome grill smell once you step in the restaurant. We couldn't decide what to eat so we ordered a platter. Three trimmings: onion rings, potato salad, macncheese It comes with coldslaw Meat platter: ribs, briskets, pulled pork, smoked sausages and wings Their homemade macncheese is phenomenal, a must have item. Onion rings are chubby and crispy. A bit disappointed in the potato salad because i think it is lack of flavor. Their coldslaw!!! Perfect balanced of sweet and sour. Crunchy veggies and no watery at the bottom. I always skip the coldslaw from other restaurant even thou it is free, but i would pay for coldslaw in here. Ribs are juicy and tender. Brisket melts in the mouth. And pulled pork is nicely done. Smoked sausages are full of flavour (Starting to run out of words lol) chicken wings are crispy outside and still juicy inside, which is hard to come by. (But i dont really like the garlic and parmesan flavor i choose, maybe the flavor is just not strong enough to stand out in the platter) Anyway we come to the conclusion that we dont need to wait for ribfest anymore lol read more

This is not my first time trying food from this place and I do enjoy getting their poutine when I'm in the area. I came during the day on a weekday and it wasn't busy, with only one table occupied. I ordered a pulled pork poutine to go and the service was quick and cashier was really friendly. He let me know that it would not take more than five minutes for the order to be ready. I opted for a sweet sauce, although you have the option to get it spicy instead. The portion size was a pretty good amount, which you could share for two people if you wanted to. Overall, both times I went I had a good experience at this place and would come back to try other things on the menu. read more

Not bad at all, and judging by the fact that there were 3 employees and one patron (me), I'd say the place needs a yelp-rescue (a yelpcue? Or since its BBQ a yelpcueque?) On my visit, the debit machine was down and I was low on cash, so I wasn't able to sample as much of the menu as I would have liked, but the pulled pork sandwich was a-ok. The place looks simultaneously rustic and modern, open concept and clean. Today they had a $3.95 deal on the pork sandwich, but the pickle and coleslaw are no longer included (now costs another $1), so you really only save $1 over regular prices. Despite the deal, I was the only customer at 12:30pm, so I'm worried for this place - hope it catches on. Ps: there are other weekday lunch specials - see photo. read more

Upon entering the restaurant, I was greeted by the very friendly cashier. I ordered the Pulled Pork Poutine, Beef Brisket sandwich, and Pig Out Burger. The Pulled Pork Poutine and Beef Brisket sandwich are given the options of choosing smokey, spicy, or sweet bbq sauce. I chose smokey for the poutine and spicy for the sandwich. My brother really enjoyed the spicy bbq sauce on the sandwich. The smokey sauce was decent, I enjoyed the spicy sauce more. The poutine can really fill you up. The Pig Out burger was a bit too heavy for me, there was just too much happening. I completely forgot to ask for the complimentary coleslaw/pickles. It would've been nice if the cashier could have offered or reminded me. We waited 15 minutes for our food. The plating of the food doesn't look too appealing, but the food is actually good. I spent around $34 on my visit here. Overall, friendly staff and decent food. I would come here again if I'm ever in the area! read more

The yelp rating at the time of my writing this review was 3.5 stars which is just about right and what I would have given if I could have given a half star. I stopped in for an early supper and decided to try the sampler platter with ribs, wings, and pulled pork. I had the Mac and cheese for a side and corn bread as well. I quite enjoyed the ribs and wings but wasn't too enthused with the pulled pork as it was overly cooked and sauced. The Mac and cheese was also not to my liking as it looked and tasted like it was made with powdered cheese. The corn bread although not too bad would have been nicer if it was served hot. All in all not a bad meal but nothing to get too excited about. read more

I went with my family for Mother's Day and let me tell you this place was absolutely great! The staff was welcoming and very nice. Seating was spacious. The food was absolutely yummy! We tried the banquet burger, dirty burger, jr. piglet (comes with ribs, chicken wings, beef brisket) and hot dog w/ fries. Everything was amazing. The only thing I really didn't like was the fries, but you can opt to the Mac and cheese. That was the best Mac and cheese I tried in my life! Overall I will definitely go back to try something else on their menu! read more

I just took out 2 rib dinners, one with bbq and the other honey garlic. I must say these were the tastiest ribs I have had for a long time. I tried them in the first week and they were good but now they are great. Even the onion rings were above most others. Thanks for the warm welcome and great service as well.

Pig Out Bbq - Barbeque Near Me - Pickering, Ontario

Hubby and wifey tried this place out on a whim with a bunch of friends. Nothing special, but was not quite disappointing either. Hence, the 3-star rating. Best bet was the platter that will pretty much give you a taste of most offered in the menu. Wifey and hubby shared a platter that comes with wings, ribs, and brisket with three sides. Don't get your hopes up with the "smoked" ribs though because wifey was disappointed with the lack of smokiness to the meat. Brisket was a little chewy. Wings were surprisingly good. Sides were mediocre. Overall, okay place to try on a last-minute impulse. Unfortunately, wifey and hubby had better home-cooked bbqs. read more

Pig Out Bbq - Platter of meat - brisket, ribs, wings with 3 sides - Barbeque Near Me - Pickering, Ontario

I have driven by this place a few times but just haven't had a chance to check it out. Today was my lucky day. I ordered the pull pork sandwich but also asked about the beef brisket. I was given a generous sample of the beef and loved it! I stuck with the pulled pork however. Sandwich was huge and tasted great. John and Linda (the owners) came by to check on my meal. I felt like I was visiting old friends. Update: I have gone back and had the beef brisket a couple of times and still think this is the best sandwich they have. I'll probably be going back tonight. Can't wait for them to get licensed. I bet the food will taste even better with an ice cold beer. read more

I was at this location last week to pick up an order for delivery.... the smell was intoxicating!!!! I had to make my way back this weekend to try the food. and OMG this place makes amazing food.... it tasted even better then it smelled! They even sell bottles of their sauce. If you are looking for a place to eat check this place for sure!!! read more

I wish I can give this place more than 5 stars!!! Let me just start off by saying that this was probably one of the BEST BBQ places I've ever been to. A couple of my friends and I were in the area and decided to hit up this spot and let me tell you, we were not disappointed. The service was amazing; and we were greeted as soon as we walked in. I came in with 3 of my other friends so we decided to go with the Pig Out Platter. The smoked wings were delicious, ribs and sausages were so flavourful and the ribs were perfectly tender. Don't even get me started with the beef brisket; absolutely loved it. The platter came with coleslaw and we had of choice a 3 large sides; so we went for the fries, mac n cheese and the potato salad. We also got some buns on the side as well so we could make our own sandwiches. That all came up to about $80. This may sound like much but it was definitely worth it for the amount of food you are getting, and let me tell you, they were pretty generous with the portions. I am from the west end and I would most definitely travel to Pickering to feast on their delicious food. I would highly recommend this place to any meat lover as they would be drooling over the many options to choose from. read more

780 Kingston Road, Unit 6 L1V 1A8 Pickering, ON Date visited : 04/20/2018 This is our first visit here to eat, yet I have picked up from this location for Skip the Dishes on 2 or 3 occasions. We ended up here since we couldn't decide where to go. We were considering sushi or fish n chips at first. We called Daisuki Sushi to inquire pricing, and we decided against it after reading some Yelp reviews, along with pricing would have hit $60+ CAD for 2 ppl and that's with the mandatory included 10% gratuity. After deciding against sushi I said let's go for fish n chips, so I plotted our way to Malt and Salt fish and chips (285 Lawson Rd, Scarborough, ON M1C 2J6) ...while already on the way there...my wife looked at me with a grin and said "let's go for ribs". I agreed and I re-Waze'd our way to Pig Out BBQ. We opted to share a dish, since we don't like to overeat at night. So we decided on the Chicken Dinner Platter ($39.99 + HST) which includes : 1/2 a chicken + full rack ribs (9 ribs) + caesar salad and a decent portion of fresh cut in-house fries. We chose the smoky sauce for the ribs, not sure what sauce the 1/2 chicken came slathered in. For drinks, my wife chose her standard can of Canada Dry ginger ale. I had packed along our 32oz **Pure Outdoor bottle, which we purchased while on sale promo (from Monoprice.com) of Ice River water from home which was still cool. Food : 4/5 The fresh cooked cut in-house fries were to our liking. Just enough crispness and lightly salted. The caesar salad was good and tasty, creamy dressing with fresh bacon bits (likely made in house as well), tho I forgot to inquire if the croutons were also made in house or not. Tho the a-la-carte fries large size seems over-priced at $6.95 + HST might order 1x just to confirm portion size As for the ribs, this gets kinda weird (least for us), out of the 9 ribs we had on the platter, the 1st 2 ribs my wife consumed and the 2 ribs I first consumed were juicy and fall off the bone. The smoky sauce was really good and complimented the ribs well. However the 3rd and 4th ribs for my wife and the 3rd through 5th ribs I ate..were not so fall off the bone anymore and not so juicy..they were dry. Cause between our ribs we consumed the 1/2 chicken, my wife took a 1/4 and I had the other 1/4 with the breast meat. As stated above, this was our first time eating at Pig Out BBQ, to be honest this is our first visit to a ribs/chicken BBQ resto. So we were not sure what to expect. My wife enjoyed her share of the chicken, as for my share..well I usually find chicken breast meat that has been BBQ's usually on the drier side. So without the smoky BBQ sauce to dip the chicken breast in, it would have been difficult to eat. Along with the previously mentioned 3rd-5th ribs I had..I had to use the smoky bbq sauce to dip..or else it would have been hard to eat. When we do ribs/chicken at home we usually bake with Maggi So Juicy, so the end result are never dried out. I'm curious to know if Pig Out BBQ sells their smoky sauce in bottles or not, would be nice to have their smoky bbq sauce for when we do ribs at home. Other thoughts : nice to have the complimentary pickles and coleslaw. Even tho I avoid coleslaw due to cabbage (gout trigger for me), I tasted a small amount and I liked the flavour. Repeat visits ? Yes, we intend to return to try some of their sandwich offerings, and possibly their pulled pork poutine. Also to see portion size on their large a-la-carte home-made fries. Method of Payment : Cash/Debit/Credit IF interested : ** Pure Outdoor 32oz wide mouth bottle from Monoprice.com https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=15321 read more

Got a chance a couple of times to eat there First time I tried the ribs Unfortunately I got the rib ends and didn't get enough meat etc to savour the ribs Second time I tried the pulled pork tacos This definitely hit the spot YGEH was not wrong for showing up here and wasn't wrong for showing the tacos Will def come back again read more

BBQ only two blocks from where I work. Why must the food gods tempt me so. Tried the beef brisket melt $8.95 and two soft tacos with pulled pork $6.95. Both were pretty decent. Only complaints was that the beef brisket had some big chunks of fat and the pulled pork for the tacos were a bit tough. Both meals came with coleslaw and dill pickle. I hate dill pickles. There were different flavours offered for the meat: smokey, spicy or sweet. I got the beef brisket smokey and the pulled pork sweet. I really couldn't taste the difference. I also DO NOT recommend getting sandwiches to go like I did because the bread was soggy by the time I got home. I only live 10 minutes away too. If going for takeout I recommend just plain meats like ribs or wings. I'm gonna have to try these another time or when the BBQ gods tempt me once again. 3 stars because I have had much better beef brisket and pulled pork elsewhere but because its so close to me I'm sure I will be back. read more

One star because of the nice folks and quick service. The Chinese guy running the place seemed like a nice dude. I hate giving out bad reviews, but this place deserves it. I ordered take out (rib and chicken combo and 1lb honey garlic wings) As I write my review, a few words come to mind. "OLD" , "REHEATED", "NOT FRESH", "TOO SMOKEY" , "SAUCE TASTES LIKE ASH AND DRIPPINGS" The food is not sitting well and I really do not feel well. The food industry is cutthroat and you only get one audition. This was PIG OUT BBQ's audition and it failed MISERABLY Will NOT be back read more

Had to wait 30 for food. Too much salty BBQ sauce and the pulled pork was nothing special. Small servings for the price too. Ribs weren't really tender and bland. Thanks but no thanks. read more

Tried the pulled porc sandwich with Bbq sauce and onion rings. Pulled porc was alright but nothing special. Coleslaw and dill was good. Service was a bit unclear if we order at table or go to cash. Had to get up to get a fork and knife since they only brought food basket to my table. I had some high hopes for this place since I went out of my way to stop here following my search on web and say "you gotta eat here" did a show on them. Atmosphere feels like a franchise chain and not the homey style I like to visite. I would have liked a one person sample plate, would have liked to try ribs, wings and brisket. I saw a family of six order everything on menu they seems to be enjoying. I wish them the best, but Saturday supper time no line up outside ;( and restaurant half full. read more

I lived in Texas for 53 years... this is the best damned BBQ i've ever had outside the state. It's a little hard to see from the street, but if you like BBQ, you will be glad you found it. read more

I ordered a simple quick lunch to go, pulled pork, slaw, pickle, and baked beans. Service was quick and efficient, and the sandwich was good, but just pork, very skimpy on sauce and smoke. My total was about $8, so it was good value. The place is clean and over managed. The manager keeps an evil eye on the staff, and they seem to fear her. So much for ambience! Everything is sweetened, and the BBQ smoke is deliberately bland. They add sugar to the under cooked beans, the sauce, and the out sourced cole slaw. At least the pickle was sour! The owner is talking down to us with these offerings, so I doubt if I'll go back. ed. note: I put a review of Pig Out BBQ somewhat like this in Chowhound Toronto, and the manager immediately slammed me, and tried to get her own fake review published. She was dropped right away by Chow, and then got her staff to put two favorable reviews in Chow; they were also dropped within a day. read more

I have to say, this is one of the bigger disappointments I've had in a while. When I heard that there was a BBQ joint in Pickering, I got so excited. Pickering tends to be the land of fast-food and mall parking lot chain restaurants so I loved the fact there was an independent restaurant that did not rhyme with Tack Pastors or Bone Tar. I especially loved that it was a BBQ joint. I've had my fair share of good BBQ all over the US and Canada and I tend to like most BBQ. I mean you can't really go that wrong with BBQ (or at least I thought). Unfortunately, this place was a huge disappointment. In terms of menu I prefer if a BBQ place allows you to customize your own meat choices. Here they have a bunch of pre-designed platters but no "choose two meats and a side" option. In fact the only two meat diner options is Ribs and Chicken. We ended up ordering a lot of food for take out: ribs, chicken, pulled pork sandwiches, baked beans, coleslaw, potato salad, and onion rings. I'll start with the positive. The pulled pork sandwich was good. It's pulled pork and onions on a very soft delicious bun. I tend to agree with some of the other reviews that the bbq sauce is WAY too sweet but all in all this was a pretty good sandwich. If I was looking to have just a sandwich again I may consider ordering this. The chicken was also good. Nothing overly special but nothing really that wrong with it. I found the meat itself to be a bit overly smokey (but not a good smokey flavour more like an artificial liquid smoke flavour) and the sauce to be a bit sweet but it was okay. I thought the ribs were terrible. I tend to like ribs that fall of the bone but these ribs were so tough! I could barely eat the meat off the bone let alone let it fall off the bone. Again I found these to be a tad on the oppressively (artificially) smokey side as well. To make matters worse the sides were also bad. The baked beans and the coleslaw were so bland they both went untouched (and wasted) after everyone had tried them. These are things that need a bit of flavour or kick, especially when pairing them with BBQ but they were just completely flavourless. The potato salad was iffy. I REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted to like this place. The idea of having a bbq joint in Pickering excited me so - but next time I'm just going to opt for a mall parking lot chain restaurant because even though the pork and chicken were okay, BBQ isn't BBQ without a good side and this place just didn't deliver. read more

Lying pricks said they were open. Can't even get chicken wings at this time. Half ass advertising for half ass food! Terrible restaurant with no delivery. read more

I always skip the sauce to see what the BBQ really tastes like. No smoke on the pulled pork, none on the "brisket". Brisket is in brackets because it looks more like a roast and is not sliced like a brisket. Mac N Cheese was macaroni in cheese sauce with two cheeses on top. It was al dente, not smooth and creamy. It would seem that all the sauces come from the same base with either sugar or hot sauce added. Looks like a small electric southern pride smoker. Guaranteed to not be smoky and the holding oven removes more of the smoke flavour. Best thing in my opinion was the ribs. They didn't put the sauce on the side as requested, so I can't comment on the true taste. No smoke ring and the same generic base sauce with a twist for the ribs. Of course, no smoke ring, just like the "brisket" and the pulled pork. Coleslaw was standard. I give up on anybody making good baked beans. From the other reviews, that was a good decision... read more

5 of us descended on the Kingston Rd location tonight. We were hungry and we had never heard of this place so decided to give it a try. It didn't disappoint. We thought a Carnivore Platter wouldn't be enough - we were wrong. Everything was delicious. My favorite was the brisket. Will definitely be back! read more

I called in an order for pick up and was very pleased! This is what I ordered: Banquet burger Regular burger Sweet potato fries Mac and cheese Warm banana bread pudding The food quality was very high! The entire family ate and my 18 month old (picky eater) devoured the Mac and cheese! Sweet potato fries were delicious and crispy- best I've ever had! The warm banana bread pudding was soooooo good I didn't want to share! Will definitely be returning! read more

One of my favourite places to get beef brisket done right. Ive been here atleast 20 times and always great service/environment. It's located just off whites Rd exit on 401 highway, usually clear sailing between 11-3 pm which is great for casual lunch. The beef brisket here has a great texture. It actually looks like it's been shaved off a larger more succulent fatty piece of beef. The head chef here is extremely passionate and you're in for a treat anytime he's here. Definitely worth a shot for barbeque and meat lovers alike. read more

I have always lived in durham and recently moved to Pickering and had been meaning to try this place for quite some time. I finally had the opportunity to and decided to go with the brisket which has received good reviews on Yelp. I decided to make it a combo and try the sweet potato fries. The service was nice and friendly and the restaurant I felt had a very nice atmosphere. On to the food... I got my meal and at first glance have to admit I was disappointed it didn't look like much food and it cost $13 and change. The brisket sandwhich was good it didn't blow my mind nothing too special but a good quality sandwhich which was a lot more filling than it looked. I don't like coleslaw but I tried it and it was okay. The sweet potato fries with the spicy chipolte mayo were the highlight of my meal, they were fantastic. I would come back but this wouldn't be a restaurant I would frequent like some of the other places close by simply because I feel the prices are too high for what you get. Good food but the value isn't there for me when I go to a close by burrito joint, schwarma, or fish and chips for almost half the cost. read more

If they had more sauce options, I would give them 5 stars, but the meat alone is worth the 4 stars. My favorite is the pulled pork, either in a sandwich or a plate. It is nice and smokey and well separated with no huge clumps. The ribs are also nice, but you get a lot more meat with the pulled pork. They serve it with a lovely pickled onion relish, very nice creamy southern style coleslaw, and a huge dill pickle. The only shortfall is their barbecue sauce. They have sweet which is pretty good, spicy which is too hat for me to eat even if mixed half and half with the sweet, and smokey which has a nasty fake smoke flavor. Stick to the sweet and add a dash of hot sauce if you want more heat. They have other sides but the only one I have tried is the mac and cheese which is excellent and I recommend it highly. They also have an interesting signature sandwich which was featured on the TV show "You Gotta Eat Here", the boneless rib sandwich. Try it for the novelty, it is pretty good, but get the pulled pork sandwich if you want way more meat. read more

BBQ that is nothing short of a spiritual experience. I was in Toronto for a few days and went to their Toronto location. It was so good I had to do it again on the way home. I had a sliced brisket dinner. I have a smoker and have done my own brisket on a few occasions. This was heavenly. I got a generous portion with Smokey BBQ sauce. The brisket was very moist with great smoke flavour. I had their French fries as a side and I was equally impressed. They were very flavourful and hot. I can't wait to go back!!! read more

Love this place! The Carnivore Platter was enough to feed 6 of us with fries and corn bread as sides. They were also happy to substitute the pulled pork for an extra brisket (we just don't like pulled pork in general). The brisket is to die for and i always buy a bottle of the sauce they put on it so that i can use it at home. We usually go Sunday afternoons after church and we've never seen it too busy read more
