Well smoked meat, though we have had better in our visits to hundreds of barbecue restaurants. Excellent meat with very little fat. Prices are a little on the high side compared to other barbecue restaurants in the region with similar quality . Average meat portions. Cole slaw was very dry and not very flavorful. Macaroni and cheese was very good. Baked beans were a little on the spicy side but good. Only a small portion of barbecue sauce is provided, which is mildly spicy. We recommend adding a sweet bbq sauce as well as larger portions. We will be back and welcome the arrival of real barbecue to Marianna. It's been a long wait!

More on vinegar side BBQ sauce: spicy, original and sweet Soda: bottles and fountain drinks all COKE products. The staff was friendly but would have liked for them to explain about the plastic cup situation instead of me asking if the cups are only plastic and why. The turkey is cut across the grain. As a result it chips which is fantastic because most of the time it sliced like lunch meat. The loaded mashed potatoes are were very good but half way through I was over the flavor. I could have gotten white gravy but opted out. Could have made the flavor balance out more. French fries tasted like fresh cut and the seasoning was fantastic but salty for my taste. The texture was so good tho! Mac and Cheese tasted like a velveeta cheese base. Very southern in elite texture-gooey. The banana pudding did not have bananas but they use banana flavored pudding. I did not miss the bananas with that pudding. Loaded with the right amount of wafers. Hubby said his brisket was a 7. We did not smell smoke or see it coming out of a smoke stack so not sure if it is smoked in house. This spot is very very busy with locals. Sonny's is down the street and I grew up eating it but would come here any day.

Sonny's BBQ Pit in Marianna offers the standard experience you'd expect from a regional chain…read morerestaurant. The staff is generally friendly and welcoming, which makes for a pleasant first impression. The dining area is clean and comfortable, although the restrooms could use more regular attention. Pricing is on the higher side for what you receive. Portions are average--consistent with most chain BBQ spots--but not particularly generous. As is common with franchised operations, much of the food is prepared off-site and finished in-house. The result is reliable but somewhat predictable barbecue that rarely exceeds "average at best." While Sonny's works fine for a quick and familiar BBQ meal, I would most likely prefer a smaller, independently owned BBQ restaurant where the food is smoked fresh on-site and has more authenticity and character. For those seeking convenience and consistency, Sonny's may do the job. But for a truly memorable BBQ experience, local independents are likely to deliver more flavor and value.

The ribs were hands down the best I've had in years, and without question the best restaurant ribs I've eaten. They were incredibly tender, packed with smoky flavor, and practically fell off the bone. The pulled chicken was just as impressive--juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Every bite was outstanding. The service was friendly, helpful, and genuinely attentive, making the whole experience even better. The restaurant itself was clean, quiet, and comfortable, creating the perfect atmosphere to sit back and enjoy an amazing meal. Hamaknockers BBQ may be off the beaten path, but it's absolutely worth the drive. This is the kind of place you tell your friends about and can't wait to visit again. Five stars all the way!
