Came in with a group of 30 from work. Service was good, food was good and came out fast. Prices seemed to be like all the other BBQ places in the area. I am a sauce guy, love the honey and sweet bbq sauce. I will come in with my family next time. I had the brisket mac and cheese. Great local mom and pop place. Recommend.

This BBQ spot is LEGIT!!! During my first visit, I really struggled to pick from the menu. I really wanted to try the Burnt Ends and the Brisket Grilled Cheese, and I was there on a Friday which offered the Baby Back Ribs special. After discussing with the server, I decided to go with the half-rack entree with cornbread and Mac and Cheese. I was glad I did!! The ribs were amazing - good smoke flavor, incredibly tender on the inside and a nice crisp on the outside. Well done, Pappy's!! The mac and cheese was tasty as well, and the corn bread really impressed me! I will definitely be back, and the challenge will be deviating from something I loved (the baby back ribs) and trying burnt ends and brisket grilled cheese! Pappy's also serves domestic and craft beers, and I enjoyed the Wango Tango

We have been once before years ago, but decided to stop in tonight before a show. The food was great! We had pulled pork, chicken, and brisket. We tried the smash burger and Mac and cheese, cornbread and chips and queso. Needless to say we are taking a lot home for lunch tomorrow. The peanut butter pie was one of the best I have had. Unfortunately I didn't catch the young waitresses name but she was great also! 10/10 recommend!

We were terribly disappointed with our meals. I ordered the pulled chicken dinner. It was tasteless and dry and chewy. I do not use sauce on bbq, good bbq does not need sauce to be able to taste or chew it. My son ordered the Barnyard Trio and the brisket was dry, he only got a small few bites of pork, and the rest was the nasty chicken. It appeared to us that the chicken had sat in steam table pans all day and was just plain dried up. Microwaving bbq can be done, but this was absolutely the most awful food we’ve ever had at a bbq restaurant and we have had bbq all over this country including Texas. Oh did I tell you my son worked at a local bbq here too? So he knows bbq. I can say the baked beans were awesome. Our friend (whose idea it was to go there), got the pork dinner. She see

Such a great find! We were on a long road trip & my mother in law found this place while searching & we went out of our way to try it. Highly recommended! The staff was so friendly & polite. Our waitress was quick & efficient. I'd say she went above & beyond her requirements for us. The food was reasonably priced & you got your money's worth! It was delicious! Sad that it's so far away but would recommend to anyone out that way! Our favorite thing was the bacon jalapeno poppers, so good!
