The bark on the brisket. The smoke on the brisket. The fat and texture of the brisket. It was sliced perfect thickness and with that house made sauce! Shoooot, it was lights out. Get the BRISKET! The wings were also amazing, smoky, tender, spiced just right! They will definitely be seeing us again, and often. Can't wait to try the breakfast tacos next time!

I stopped in here last Saturday at 10:30 am and when I pulled into the parking lot, I was…read moreunderwhelmed as Blanchard's is in a strip mall between a Subway and a donut shop. "How good can strip mall BBQ be?" was my initial thought but the line of 10 people waiting to get in that early eased my thinking. To answer my own question, strip mall BBQ can apparently be great! I got a 2-meat plate with the brisket, Dr Pepper glazed sticky ribs, green chili corn casserole and smokey beans. As you are ordering the brisket they ask if you want it sliced or chopped, and if you want lean, fatty or burnt ends. I knew it would be good then. The lean brisket was solid, a little peppery on the bark. I'd have liked it to be a little smokier and the bark a little more flavorful but that's the only complaint you will get in this review. The Dr Pepper sticky ribs were phenomenal! Sweet, smokey dessert like meaty goodness. It was almost pornographic what I did to those bones. The smokey beans lived up to that name for sure and the green chili corn casserole was unique and delicious. This is a definitely a place I will repeat when I am back in Lafayette.

First, let's talk the food. As a native Texan, I have a certain taste for real BBQ. And here in Lafayette, this is as close to the genuine article as you can find. The brisket is magnificent and very generous helpings of sides are always available! Staff is always friendly and has been very kind. They are always anxious to strike up a conversation and I highly recommend doing so! Price is also right for the portions they give. And they give very generous portions. Ambiance and environment is another plus about this place. The place feels like an authentic Texas or Carolina-style barbecue joint, complete with animal skins and hides, farm tools, and branding irons for decor. A roaring fireplace is in the room, albeit here in the heart of southern Louisiana, it will probably never be used. A tv is available for those anxious for entertainment with their meal. My only complaint about this place are the hours. Sadly, it is only open during a very specific time slot and that is at lunch time, Mondays thru Fridays, for about two hours or so. But all the other facets more than make up for this! If you're in the mood for quality barbecue in Lafayette, drop by this very awesome place for the genuine article!

Unfortunately they are only open for lunch, with a very tight window to eat. They were sold out of a couple things when we arrived. The ambiance fits the style; very rustic, with plenty of neat things (tools, etc) hanging on the walls to look at. Being from out-of-town, I typically dine at more Cajun and local-style cuisines while visiting, but this was a good change of pace. I'm from an area where there are a lot of BBQ joints, i think it was par for the course; but certainly a bright spot in the area. Enjoyed it, and worth the visit again!

First Hot Pot & BBQ…read more 4510 Ambassador Caffery Pkwy suite j, Lafayette, LA 70508 Finally!! I finally had the chance to try the first hot pot (literally) in Lafayette! What is hot pot, you ask? The concept is simple -- simmering meat, vegetables, and noodles in a spicy (or plain) broth fondue in the center of the table. Essentially, you cook vegetables, proteins, and carbs just the way you like it. Hot Pot is to have originated from China. I honestly don't remember everything I ordered, but this is what I recall: -Mussels, clams, sliced lamb, sliced pork, beef tongue. black tripe, mushrooms, and marinated sausage, chicken, and beef skewers. If you're curious to find more information about hot pot, simply youtube it! I definitely plan to come back here when I'm in town again! #Tonylameats #Lafayettela #firsthotpotbbq #chinesehotpot #bbq

I'll just take the ribs and you can refund my card back for the potato. I was told they could not refund me for just the potato, they would have to refund me for the entire order. Ohhh and no one at the location would be able to do this...they would have to send a picture of my order to the manager in order to receive my credit. I spent over $30 and needless to say I didn't receive any food and I still need to wait for the manager to issue my credit. The gentleman felt the need to tell me that they have nothing to do with Dickey's online app and when he was a general manager at McDonald's, they did things the same way! I really could care less about the way things were handled at your old job...I'm concerned about what I spent at Dickey's and still have no credit or food!

That said, I'm sorry, I was hoping I'd love this place as most of the locals do but it's a no for me. I have to say, the moment you walked in, you knew you were in a bonafide bakery: the smell was intoxicating. The ladies were extremely friendly and attentive. The donuts in the casing were absolutely beautiful as were the king cakes and the glazed donuts were really soft and tasty, so that's a plus. However, those stuffed sausage and cheesy things....no,no,no,no,no,no,no (FLAVA-LESS). Ya know, it's really hard not to get good flavor from pork. I mean, it's used as a seasoning in many dishes so, I'm confused. Also, the cheese didn't melt thoroughly as there was a huge chunk of white cheese sticking out on one side and the other side had sausage and egg. Just curious as to why they're on separate sides of the bun and not conjoined in the middle? Asking for a friend lol. I'm only traveling through and 3 stars are generous IMO. I wish you all much success!
