Hammerdown Barbecue

Very good barbecue. Definitely has good smoked flavor. Very tender. The sauces are good. I just wish you had some sweet tea to go with my barbecue. 👍👍

This is a small local place, much better then some of the chain restaurants. Parking might take some effort but its well worth it once you sit down. They have two child seats. Nice country music was played during my visit. I felt welcomed also. The brisket is very tasty and flavorful. As I took my first bite the seasonings and flavors just took over my mouth. The mac and cheese and the greens were tasty. The ribs were also tasty with and without sauce. They have sodas(coke products)and beers and unsweetened tea, but they have some sweetener to add to your tea. There is also a cooler with can beers and soft drink bottles. There is also a sink in the restaurant next to the sauces which is great if you want to get the sauce off before you go. They also will keep your food in a warmer if

Overall impressions: It's very close to where I live. I sat on the terrace; it was a spectacular day. I came here based on the recommendation of someone who has been visiting this place for over five years. *** This review is based on my personal opinion and experience as a consumer and chef *** ** Welcome from the owner (Ken) and his team: 10/10 Food ratings (0-10, with 10 being the best): The sides: ** Mac and Cheese 10/10 (very good, I recommend it) ** Mashed potatoes 6/10 (it was plain) ** Potato salad 8/10 (it was creamy, but a bit plain) The meats: ** Pulled pork sandwich 10/10 (excellent flavor) ** Spare ribs 7/10 (the aroma of the smoke was beyond words, but they were quite dry and lacked seasoning.

TENDER, JUICY, and DELICIOUS! 10/10 would highly recommend! Not only is it a bang for its buck, but the food was literally the best seasoned/ flavored and juiciest BBQ I’ve had yet! Sauces are a bit limited (3 flavors) but the food just is so good on its own- tbh it doesn’t need much more. The sides were also soooo good- get the Mac and cheese! Do it! Trust me! Sooo damn good! There was also like no wait time- so quick! I sat down and they called my name!

Hammerdown came highly recommended for their terrific BBQ. As someone who has lived in multiple "homes to the best BBQ" I have definitely tasted my share. And Hammerdown ranks well up there - the ribs were fantastic! Their various meat dishes do not require sauces to be flavorful and juicy. I worked with Ken to have a casual rehearsal dinner delivered. It took a while to connect, but once we made arrangements the food and service were everything we hoped for. On-time, fresh, great sides that weren't merely an afterthought, reasonably priced, and most importantly, delicious. It's a small business, so there is no "event coordinator" or easy online invoicing - but they came through in a big way. Highly recommend.
