Customer Reviews
The good: -Briskett was phenomenal. Very moist and didn't even need sauce, though the "red" sauce was very good with it. -Mac and cheese was one of the best I have had. My wife kept stealing bites. -My wife enjoyed her pulled pork sandwich. -Cornbread was solid, but slightly dry. -Very good sized portions. -Good value. The bad: Very short list here- -My wife commented the macaroni salad was not great. Was a little tangy, and not in a good way. -While my wife found the pulled pork to be very good, I tried a bite and definitely wasn't a fan, so you will have to try it for yourself as a tie breaker. Service was as good as it gets. A young woman and man who were there today were actually friendly and helpful - quite the rarity today to find people that work in a service industry and are this
This might be the best pulled pork sandwich I’ve had in Cincy. Both sauces (Alabama white and Carolina Gold) were great representations of their style… pork was smoky, juicy, and had crispy edges, and the toasted bun brought it home. Space is tight but they took advantage of the space they have with a good table layout. Staff were super friendly, and the meal was great. I wanted more from the mac n cheese to be honest, but it won’t keep me from coming back here. I’d eat that sandwich every day if my cholesterol allowed it.
Stopped after hitting the golf simulator down at another 9. Highly recommend for a quick lunch spot or if you are trying to show someone about Cincinnati's various BBQ places. The pulled pork sandwich was so good that I forgot to put any sauce on it. The golf sauce was a great addition and the white sauce had a nice little bite to it. The biscuit sandwich was something I'll be thinking about for a while. Succulent, seasoned, just some of the best meat I've ever put in my mouth, no homo. Was my first time here and will not be my last. Enjoyed with a side of Mac and Cheese and cheddar grits. Looking forward to trying the briscuit potato and buffalo chicken dip next time I go. Quality of the buns was top notch. The guy at the counter was super personable and gave us great recommendations.
We have been here before and had what I would say the best brisket I’ve ever had.. or super duper close to it. Well tonight we put an order in and it’s a hard solid “baked” potato and the small amount of sauce they give did not even cover half of the meat. I am so upset cause ya girl is about to be starting and I’m craving brisket! I’ll go back earlier in the day and try something else but I’m very sad my brisket was this dry and the potato was hard and I just didn’t get any flavor that I was hoping for! That being said, the service was amazing and the young girl on the phone was very kind.
First time eating at Pig Candy did not disappoint. I had the brisket grilled cheese and my wife had the brisket sandwich and coleslaw. Grilled cheese was nicely cooked with a good portion of brisket and my wife’s brisket sandwich was also excellent, as was the slaw. Super friendly staff in a cool place. So happy to have you here because the bbq place we used to go to abandoned us and moved to Avondale, the joke was on them I believe. We’ll be back! UPDATE! Had the Rueben sandwich today, absolutely incredible sandwich, very generous portion of the most incredible meat ever served! The mustard sauce was 🔥
