The food here isn't just bbq. It's balanced and moist. You eat a piece of moist brisket and then cleanse your palate with some pickled veg only to dive into a crispy succulent pork belly burnt end with a tangy cranberry chutney! Wrap it up in a warm... More

Paper Plate BBQ is such good food that we forgot to take photos and dove right in. We had the brined turkey half order, coleslaw, and bbq beans. The Turkey was tender with lots of great smoke flavor. The coleslaw was spot on. The bbq beans was a good pairing with the meat. The beans do come with cheese so ask to remove this for a dairy free option. The cornbread comes with a healthy amount of butter. The chef was very friendly and cool and was helpful navigating the menu.

Edit, We decided this Thanksgiving to have Paper Plate BBQ deal with the bird. Best Turkey we have had yet! We did 3lbs of breast, 4 legs, 4 thighs and 4 of their ham sausage links. BBQ so damn good makes you want to slap your mama! Highly recommended! Very good food! It’s a must go!

First time at Paper Plate BBQ. I wanted some brisket. Ordered a half pound to go. Staff was ok, not great... I found them a bit less than friendly, or so it seemed. Brisket was ok... it was very fatty, not well trimmed prior to the cook. I like fatty moist brisket, but for the price... a better trim, more meat... would have been nice (see attached photo) It did have a nice smokey flavor... and I might eat there again.

I've been meaning to try this place forever and finally managed to get down there today with my wife. I was not disappointed. I got the brisket. The brisket was so tender I could barely touch it with a plastic fork and bit basically melted off the main piece. Easily the best brisket I've ever had. My wife got the cumin spiced pulled pork sandwich. We didn't notice the part on the menu that mentioned the cumin spice when we ordered, so we were both surprised by the flavor, but in the best possible way. The cumin and other seasonings give it a nice little taco place that plays insanely well with their bbq sauce. We split the taters gratinadas. They were cheesy, Smokey, and the crema on top had a nice had a nice little spicy kick in some bites. I enjoyed the cornbread muffin. The whipped
