I love the food here. But i have to say, hands down the best wings I've had since I've moved to the area . Something about smoked wings, they are exceptional and very meaty. I like the Thai Chili but all are good.

I gave this place another chance after they forgot some things on my first order. Same thing happened again, ordered 2 pieces of cornbread to go with my sandwiches and no cornbread. The brisket really isn't even tender. I don't think I'll ever go back to this place

This place was amazing. The pork was perfectly done and soo soo tender. Their barbecue sauces were also very tasty. Mac and cheese is always a hit or miss at places but here, it was a home run. Highly recommend those to stop by here

Local joke BBQ. Coming from the south and recently having moved to NJ, I had an itch that needed to be scratched for BBQ. The name was promising, and it lured me in. My food was nothing like the BBQ I've grown up with and loved. The pulled pork wasn't even warm when it came out on my sandwich. It had the commercialized, processed taste I hate in my pulled pork. It has been excessively pulled, cooked, reheated, and mixed with sauce to the point it is now dead cafeteria meat. When I like my French fries better than my meal, you're not doing it right.

This review is for take out only. Ordered was the two meat combo platter w/ribs, chopped brisket, onion rings, and mac and cheese. The pick up process was easy. The food was ready on time and the staff was friendly. The food transported home well except for the onion rings which were a bit soggy (hard to avoid). I enjoyed the sauce on the ribs but the ribs themselves were too tough for my liking. I prefer it when the meat falls off the bone. I found myself pulling at the meat. Once it was free from the bone, I was disappointed as it was on the dry side. The brisket was a notch better than the ribs - there was flavor and juice yet I found myself dipping into the BBQ sauce. No complaints about the mac or onion rings. For BBQ, their prices are reasonable and you get a good amount of food. It's not my favorite yet it's hard to find good BBQ in NJ. Maybe I'm jaded after having TX BBQ.

Always, always really solid. Love the ribs brisket and bbq chicken. Brussel sprouts are top notch. We get takeout and had them cater Super Bowl. It was fantastic.

Stopped in on way to show. First time here and boy are we glad we stopped. We shared wings that were absolutely delicious and plenty. Sandra had pulled pork with salad and cornbread. Tender and flavorful and delicious. I had half rack of ribs. The flavor was fantastic and they were tender as well. The sweet potato fries were crispy and cooked perfectly. Definitely give it a try. We will be back for sure. Enjoy

The food was ok. Not enough seasoning and dry. Rack Ribs. If you want real bbq food. This is not the place.
A super chill local bbq spot. The smoked wings were to die for *droOool*. The Smokey seasoned tasted is incredible !! Must try.

Obsessed! Really flavorful and tender! Loved both the barbecue sauces! I recommend the Mac and cheese bites if you are craving a rich side! The chicken and beef brisket were delicious!

Super Bowl Sunday Takeout Review Omg whatever you do please order ahead or online. We waited minutes after we placed our order to receive it. The restaurant smelled like smoky food and after sitting sitting long it seeped into my clothes. I'm sure it was due to the volume of orders but I left starved and smelling lile a pitmaster. I tore into the food before I even left the parking lot. We order BBQ wings, fries, small collard greens, and small brussel sprouts. The BBQ wings were seasoned both with the sauce and internally. I enjoyed eating them the most. The collard greens were really good and I wish I opted for a bigger portion size. The sweet chili brussel sprouts were bland and too crispy. The fries were decent especially with the BBQ sauce. Overall I will definitely visit this location again. The staff was super nice with checking in on waiting patrons and generally trying to help the time pass by quicker.

Ribs were hard and dry. Chicken was so overcooked that when I peeled back the skin it looked like string.
