Belly of the beast I got 1/4lb brisket, 1/4lb bacon burnt ends, the honey cornbread, and the street corn salad. My husband got the brisket sandwich and the coleslaw. Food came out very quickly and looked amazing and pretty Instagram perfect. Brisket was very good, nice smoke ring and very smooth slices. The burnt ends are little delicious flavor bombs. Their barbecue sauce is one of the better kinds I have tried at BBQ restaurants. It’s thinner than say the bottled stuff from grocery stores, it’s sweet and tangy with a little spice but not too much. Honey cornbread was delicious and calmed the spicy tang of bbq sauce. Corn salad had good flavors and would be very nice during summer. Husband said his sandwich was 8/10 and he gave that score because he said the bun was a little dry but ever

Wow! I didn’t have to go down south to enjoy some really good smoked pork belly - the burnt ends. Amazingly good. The sauce was spot on. Very friendly. You won’t be disappointed. Just wish my husband was still here to try it. He would have loved it! 🥰

Great place to get a quick but delicious bite to eat! Fast service, have your food in roughly 60 seconds! A little taste of heaven in the middle of maine! Highly recommend you come and try to brisket and mac!

Noticed it on our way to Butterfields for ice cream, took a chance the next day for dinner and wow we were not disappointed! This place already has a cult following with the locals in Dover-Foxcroft and should be on everyone’s radar that goes to Peaks-Kenny either at the end of the day or as a break in mid week camp meal prep. Great atmosphere, down to earth staff, plenty of family style tables and the food…all the food was spot on. Was not a single item we tried that wasn’t perfectly smoked, cooked or prepped. 10/10 barbecue restaurant in Dover-Foxcroft.

Went here on Friday for the first time and let me tell you it won’t be the last! My husband and I got the beast nachos and they were some of the best food I have ever eaten at a restaurant period. Definitely come give Belly of the Beast a try if you love bbq!!!
