Customer Reviews
Been going there since I was a kid. Pulled pork sandwich is great when they sauce it right (but they could up their bun game, pretty weak) ribs are good if you get there early enough, you can't fault a place for making bbq daily so they ruin out but obviously that means the end of the batch has been around the longest. The twice baked potatoes are the best. Staff is always super friendly.
I stopped by at the last minute, and the owner was still super kind and welcoming, even taking the time to ask about my taste preferences. The food was an amazing value—absolutely delicious! I asked for the spicy BBQ sauce, which was mild for my taste and could be a bit spicier, the pork was perfect—no complaints there. Just give it a try; you won’t be disappointed! The restaurant is very small, with only one sit-down table, but I absolutely loved the cool, old town vibe. I’ll definitely be coming back again soon!
The ribs had absolutely no meat on them it was all bone. The skin you supposed to peel off before cooking ribs was still on there. I spent 50 bucks on 2 meals that the only thing was good was the twice baked potato and the can of coke
As always, Scott's has the best BBQ around! I drive from Farmington to get it and wouldn't think of going anywhere else!
Truly a hole-in-the-wall with room for only two seating, this local huddle spot offers friendly service and great ribs! And yes, to the other reviews, the beans are really spicy! I was even offered a complimentary soda, without asking! The food is really good too. Just recognize their very limited hours (only open Thursday, Friday, Saturday) and cash-only operation. Five stars for super friendly and welcoming service, (the guys always personally thank us for coming in and ask us to come again in the most enthusiastic, generous manner) and the quality of BBQ. Thank you for always being so kind!
