Yesterday at 4:45 pm my family went to the Plainfield location. We waited in line 10 mins until we were first in line and then the guy cutting the brisket said, be with you in a moment. After a minute, I asked him, sir what do you prefer... the tator tot casserole or the greens. He said tots and after another minute my daughter asked, is that beef or pig he was cutting up. He said beef. He then told us to move down the line towards the cashier. We went to the cashier and she said, sorry, we have a large online order its going to be a while, I said no rush take your time. After 5 mins waiting in front of her, she said, are you ready to pay and I said, we didn't order yet. She then said, you have to order from the first guy in front and then told us to go back in line (which had many

I loved it here! Will definitely be back! I ordered 1/2 pound of pulled pork and put it on tortillas (only $1 for several). They Have a self serve bbq area. It was BOMB!!! My husband got a beef and cheddar sandwich, which he loved.

Pastrami sandwich was loaded with pastrami. piled high. Burnt ends were very tasty. Sides are big enough to be shareable. They run out of the good stuff so get there early. Will visit again. Gets crowded, if there wasn't outdoor seating available and nice weather it could be a problem. 30 minutes in line to order food. Only 4 stars as they ran out of items we were hoping to have.

This place never misses. Everything on the menu is absolutely stellar and very reasonably priced. The meats are always seasoned and cooked to perfection and even their sides are all made with the same care and quality as the mains. You can always tell a lot about a BBQ type place on how good their sides are, and this place is unmatched in the area. The place is always clean, has outdoor seating and is never too loud inside even on weekends. You absolutely need to try the pork belly and the poutine with brisket. It's insane how good these are.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Shane Mitchell · Feb 2026

2nd time here. We are Texans and know good BBQ. The brisket and sides were outstanding both times. The smoked sausage with cheese was very good the first time, over cooked the second. So overcooked the cheese appeared to be drained out. No orange color or cheese residue anywhere. The pork burnt ends were very good. Ordered iced tea (I am from Texas, LOL) only to find its not brewed. Comes from a machine. No big deal for most folks here but its an issue for me.
