Im not a fan of BBQ... but had a craving and had to try based on past reviews. More than 5 stars.. amazing flavor, tender ribs, great sauces. For someone who doesnt care for BBQ, Ive ordered 2x within 1 month. Unfortunately doordash or business charges $5.99 for delivery fee so that keeps me from wanting to order more if I decide not to drive. read more

Tipsy pig is that hole in the wall BBQ spot people dream of finding. Meat is well cooked and the sides Ive tasted have been good. Mac and cheese is nice and cheesy and the baked beans are seasoned well and have a little onion in them which give them a nice crunch. I recommend read more

Tipsy Pig BBQ is nestled inside the Shell station that you'll see first. Look for the delightfully temporary looking banner underneath the Shell sign to confirm that you're at the right place. After you enter, walk right up to the counter on the left side of the gas station and place your order. Where are the hush puppies on this menu? Aren't the prices kind of high? Is there really an upcharge for mac n cheese? These are just a few of life's imponderables that you'll coincidentally start pondering as you browse the menu. Because I'm very bad with money, I went with the two item plate on one trip and the one item plate on the other trip. Pay at the gas station's cash register. I don't know why they expect people to know this. The chopped pork and the chicken are both very good, but they didn't quite have that fresh off the grill/smoker taste that I expect at higher prices. And, no, this doesn't mean they should add liquid smoke (gag). I don't mind the upcharge for the Brunswick Stew, and I've seen upcharges for mac n cheese at other places. Both sides were prepared well and of high quality, but the oil conglomeration on the mac n cheese suggests that it was likely old. The two slices of the cheapest grocery store bread that accompanied the plate was frankly unacceptable. At these prices, they surely could give us Texas toast or corn bread. If not, they could toast the grocery store bread at the absolute least. Serving us two plain pieces of cheap bread just doesn't fit the price of the meal. I don't mind paying $1.75 for sweet tea. I do mind paying $1.75 for sweet tea that isn't very good, especially in the South. This place would be 5 stars easily if I were still on the West Coast and longing for good barbecue. Since we are in the South and Tipsy Pig charges high prices, it is fair to expect a lot from them. It would be unfair to rate Tipsy Pig below 4 stars, but I won't likely return and can't wholeheartedly recommend it. ***Update: The prices are more in line with other places in Georgia than I thought. I'd still prefer to make the trek over to Fox Bros. read more

The service is the best part. The first time I went, I got a slab of ribs with the hot sauce, greens, and fried okra. I ordered an appetizer of cauliflower. Everything was delicious, especially the cauliflower. They offer some of the best ribs I have ever had. The second time, of course I got the cauliflower, brisket with the hot sauce, greens, Brunswick stew. The best brisket I have ever had. This is gastronomic excellence in a gas station. Never judge a book by its cover. read more

Best BBQ I've had out of a gas station, and some great bbq, period. Brisket, ribs, whatever... it's worth a visit. And don't forget the peach cobbler. That stuff is off the chain! Fries are air fried and everything is cooked/prepared right. I'd definitely recommend. read more

Everyone raves about this place but I was not impressed. For the amount of money we spent (which was about $75) it served we hardly for any may. And the meat was dry and over cooked. There are amount better bbq places out there worth that about of money even for a bit of drive. read more

Amazing BBQ I was totally shocked that a gas station BBQ joint could be so incredibly amazing ... their stew could be thicker but otherwise NO COMPLAINTS.. be sure to try the peach cobbler wow read more

It's in a Shell gas station. If you're picky about that, you probably aren't a real BBQ fan anyway so you can stop reading now... Since you stayed, let me tell you some of my BBQ rules. If I don't see/smell smoke when I walk up, it's not real and I probably won't go inside. If it's squeaky clean, it's not gonna be good. If the staff is too dressy, it's not authentic. Tipsy Pig passes all these. They smoke their meats on site so you see the smoker off to the side and smell smoke when you get there. I consider that an appetizer for my senses and it's a good sign. I already told you it was in a gas station, so that takes care of it not being squeaky clean or too dressy. It's clean enough that the food is safe, so don't sweat that. You order at the counter and then take your check to the register to pay. Bring your receipt back to the counter and wait. You can get smoked chickens, half and whole; smoked wings, ribs, and pulled pork. Be aware, like a good BBQ joint, they cook enough for that day but might run out of some things late in the day. Also, the sides are decent but not amazing. Good smoked meat with decent sides is what you get. Plus, you can grab your lotto tickets and top off your car's gas all in one convenient stop. read more

A friend of mine recommend the Tipsy Pig and I'm glad they did. We got the smoked wings and a half rack. The ribs were tender and smoked really well. Very flavorful. The smoked wings were Fantastic! No sauce needed and had the perfect amount of smoke. I have no complaints. read more

Tipsy Pig BBQ - Smoked wings and ribs! - Barbeque Near Me - Lilburn, Georgia

So at first I was a little skeptical when coming to this place. BUT MANNNNNNNN!!!!!! i order 2 plates. the rib and pulled pork w/ baked beans and mac, as well as the chicken and pulled pork w/ cole slaw and mac. The meat wasss AMAZE BALLS. It was juicy, and tender and well seasoned. The side sauces are superb..esp the ones with vinegar bbq sauce and a hint of spice. When i arrived an employee as me what sauce i wanted. I let her know it was my 1st time eating there so she loaded me up w/ every sauce that they had and they are all yum yum good. My dislikes were the coleslaw and mac. the cole slaw didnt have much flavor to it. I did remake it once i got home but the initial taste did not impress. The make was ok but it tasted like box brand mac and cheese and i was hoping for an old style in home taste. other than that it was good. I spent about 32.00 on everything and I am satisfied w/ what I received. read more

OK, like the song says, first time I was here I was petrified, so much that I turned around, didn't care that the reviews said this place was excellent, I figured it had to be a mistake, and here's why, this place is in a gas station, they have a couple of chairs that you can see from my picture on the convenience store inside the gas station, however after the friend I came with who also decided to leave tried them to go, he said they were the best ribs you've ever tried, so I decided to give it a chance and get my order to go as well since this place is not really a dine in restaurants that I would like to stay in, however ultimately it's all about the food right? So with that in mind if you want great tasting barbecue you should really give them a try, they are fast and prompt, I placed my order and three minutes later I was at the door after paying at the convenient store register, little awkward, but again, it's all about the food, I got pulled pork and a full rack of ribs and mac & cheese, definitely give them a try if you are in the area, now I know the reviews were not lying, prices are OK and parking is enough since you have the entire gas station and car wash to drop your car off, on the plus side is, you can order your food, get a fill up and a car wash and be on your way ;) read more

Sssoooo good I love this food, not greasy, fresh and delicious! Don't let the fact that it's in a gas station- it's often sold out so call ahead! Love this place! read more

Good Afternoon, We spent at least $40 bucks each time we visit our neighbourhood tipsey pig on five forks. But today will be the last time I spend any money there. Ocassionally we purchase 4 or 5 orders of French bread for dinner. Today I was told, rudely, "Its not on the menu and we are not going to sell that to you now". As I walked away he stated to another female employee, " I'm tired of people....(mumbling ).." I appreciated your business in the past for our birthdays, football games etc. I am sure I can find a business in area, like Foggy Bottoms, to cater our events in the future. Former Customer. read more

Great ribs! Amazing Mac and cheese! Brisket was really good but ribs are definitely the star of the show!

Delicious ribs and pulled pork. It's located in a gas station but don't let that scare you away. It was moving day and I swung by here to get food for 2 men helping us move, my husband, and myself. I got a plethora of food - pulled pork, ribs, fries, and Brunswick stew and everyone was asking where I got the food from. I got a slab of ribs which I thought was way too much with all the other food but I'm glad I went for the full slab because only 1 was left over! They are that good. read more

Who would think BBQ in a gas station would be good but it is. Great chicken, pulled pork and baked beans. Only downside is the past 2 times I have gone have wanted ribs and they are always sold out by mid to late afternoon. Hence the 3 stars. read more

Modest location but exceptional food! Don't let the gas station locale fool you. This BBQ is legit. Best BBQ in Gwinnett!

Yes, it's in the Shell gas station's convenience store. And yes, it's great BBQ. I ordered the 1/2 chicken with 3pc pork ribs and I had a difficult time finishing because it was a half chicken!! Staff was very friendly and offered to refill my lemonade twice. There's a bathroom on site to wash your hands after the messy BBQ, but I'd recommend bringing a few wet wipes to the table. Seating is available at the few tables or also on the bar top. The only quirk is that you pay at the main cashier at the Shell store counter, then return the order ticket to the staff at Tipsy Pig. It's a minor inconvenience, but could probably be a bit more seamless. read more

Tipsy Pig BBQ - 1/2 BBQ Chicken with 3pc ribs. Beans and mac and cheese sides (you get a choice of 2 sides). There's BBQ sauce at the tables. - Barbeque Near Me - Lilburn, Georgia

The baked beans are really good! The bbq was ok nothing special. I wouldn't come again. It just didn't give me that wow factor

Fantastic!! Doesn't look like it but people from all over Georgia come here for there BBQ!!

Know lots of people live this place. I've been three or four times. It's ok but I've never really been "wow'ed". It ok but the meat is on the dry side for me. read more

The skin on the chicken is soooooo flavorful, crispy and sticky! Yum. The ribs have a great crust, the fries are fries and bbq aren't the same without them. Collar greens are earthy and delicious. I thought they were perfect. My husband love the barbecue beans. I thought the mac & cheese was just OK. The young gal and guy working at the counter were friendly, and on top of things. read more

The place is connected to a gas station and I drove by almost everyday for a while. One day I stopped to get something at the gas station and everything smelled so great so I ended up buy dinner for everyone at my house. I got a family meal with a little bit of everything. Everything was amazing! My kids and husband loved it all! We go all the time now and have never had a bad experience! read more

Yum!!!! Really tasty barbecue. We got the brisket, Mac and cheese and collard greens for our first visit and were very pleased! I haven't had Mac and cheese like that in a long time. We'll definitely be back. read more

Shares a building with a gas station which is cool. You get a ticket from them when you order and pay at the front with the gas station clerk. I have gotten the brisket multiple times and only once have had a bad experience. Its ALMOST always consistent, the one time was in January last year and it was cold so maybe the smokers werent working at full power and the brisket was absolutely raw and uneatable. I do not want to focus on the bad experience though because they truly have delicious Brisket, Ribs, Chicken and desserts. I highly recommend this place to anyone who asks about good barbeque. read more

First meal on landing back in Georgia - great ribs and mac n cheese. And i usually avoid fries at BBQ spots, but these were hot and fresh out the fire. Try the hot sauce!! read more

Pricing excellent food, and excellent staff. Very friendly very knowledgeable I would recommend this place . Blackberry cobbler to die for,

Always fresh and the Nashville Chicken is amazing. I would definitely recommend. Usually a pretty quick turn around for getting lunch.

Don't be fooled by the fact that it's in a gas station. The food is awesome and very reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to try good bbq! read more

Food wasn't bad, but it was definitely leaning bland. The potato salad, greens, and Mac and cheese legit had zero flavor so when I got home I doctored it up. We were also a little concerned about sanitation with the way the food was handled. One person didn't have gloves on but assured us that the meat was handled with gloves. The other person was making a pulled pork sandwich and topped cole slaw on the meat (with gloves), but proceeded to wipe the excess slaw off his gloves and onto the table. Not the worst thing ever but it definitely skeeved me out a bit. I won't come back but was happy to try it out! read more

My first time here and I was very skeptical and very careful with ordering because it's inside of a gas station and it's just not what I do or think of when it comes to dinning. I was actually on my way to Jim N Nicks bbq but decided not to make the drive and stopped here instead. But let me start with the manager! He's the kindest and most positive guy with the best attitude. He gave me a sample and carefully walked me through the menu. I ordered the half chicken Mac and cheese and Bake beans. It was delicious and I will be back soon. I'm so glad I stopped there. It was much more better than I expected. read more

Excellent food and service. The owner and the employee are super nice. Only got chicken wings since I went there pretty late. The wings are flavorful. I got sweet heat source on. It's a combination of sour, sweet, and spicy to the perfect level with the aroma of black pepper. The meat is cooked to the just right. For side, I got the stew, which has beef, chicken, carrots and corns. Although it's a small plastic bowl, they serve me with an amount that's almost enough meat for a meal. They definitely deserve five stars and a good business. Hoping that I could try something else next time. BTW: they actually gave me an extra chicken wing. read more

Very good and they actually carry Eastern NC vinegar sauce for you to add to meat. The Blackberry Cobbler is awesome as well! read more

Food is good. It was so I good I went back the next day. My husband has been there numerous times to get his lunch for work.

Love this place and their friendly staff. When your tired of burgers and chicken sandwiches you've got switch it up and have a Memphis style. Best pork sandwiches around and generous size. Sometimes since I can't resist the smell when drinking by, we split one and share a fry. You won't be disappointed. read more

Really tasty, lean pulled pork. Also, green beans are amazing and you can tell they are cooked there and not frozen or from a can. Raspberry cobbler is too due for! The food at Tipsy Pig is our go to for family gatherings. read more

I LOVE this place!!!! I visit at least once a month. The BBQ meat is always moist. The sides are awesome, especially that doggone potato salad. I got my husband and I the two meat plate, which comes with your choice of two meats and two sides. I got ribs and pulled pork with greens and potato salad. Yummy. I got my daughter the chicken plate. The cost for the two meat plate was around $15 each. It's worth the splurge. Plus, they give you all kinds of different BBQ sauces to go with your meal. read more
