Found this gem while searching on google what to eat with my kids. I was delightfully surprised to find BBQ! I ordered brisket and ribs with fries and Mac n cheese. I also got to pick two sauces, I went with their bbq sauce and their green (Peruvian) sauce. I was highly impressed with the green sauce! Especially as someone who orders Peruvian food all the time from my local area. The brisket was so tender, fall off the bone quality and super tasty! It's safe to say I devoured everything! The weather was beautiful and we knew we wanted to eat outside and the area was so peaceful. I would definitely go back when I vacation again to LBI.

You won't find better BBQ on a shore town than Iron Oak. Quickly becoming a yearly tradition in Beach Haven, this place is LEGIT. Food portions are perfect. Food is tasty and seasoned super well. Priced well. You need to try the ribs, brisket, and pulled pork. Shoutout to the massive corn bread 😍

Wonderful eating experience. Restaurant located in the bay village area in beach haven. Plenty of parking. Seating is outdoors, but shaded from sun. The menu has a lot of choices. Couldn’t decide which meat to have… so we ordered the three meat platter with three sides. Plus added one more. Platter included spare ribs, pulled pork and brisket. We got the baked beans, Mac & cheese, coleslaw and added cornbread as an extra side. The platter was huge and plenty for two. We got 4 spare ribs, large portion of pulled pork and 2 hearty slices of brisket. My favorite was the spare ribs. Very tasty with the KC sauce. The brisket was good but was not thinly sliced. Although Definitely delicious. The pulled pork was good… seasoned with plenty of black pepper… not my favorite The sides w

Damn good BBQ and I'm picky because my husband smokes ribs at home. I had the 2 meat platter with pulled pork and ribs, a side of Elote corn and Mac and cheese. I really enjoyed everything on my plate. My husband had 1/2 lbs of ribs and really enjoyed them as well. I would definitely come back here again.

Unforgettable BBQ Experience From the moment I walked into Iron Oak Barbecue Company in Beach Haven, I knew I was in for something special. The aroma of slow-smoked meats — hickory, white oak, cherry wood — hit me right away, and every bite lived up to the promise. The brisket plate was a standout. Perfect bark, smoked for hours, rich and tender without being greasy. The pulled pork was just as impressive — juicy, flavorful, and clearly done right. The honey butter cornbread might be the best I’ve ever had — thick, slightly crisp on the edges, and slathered in warm honey butter. The sides were no afterthought either: creamy mac and cheese, smoky brisket pit beans, and coleslaw that actually had crunch and flavor. What really pushed it over the top was the selection of house-made sauces
