Absolutely delicious the smoked chicken Caesar wrap with cornbread croutons is amazing, plus the pork ribs chipotle bbq sauce also compliments the Caesar wrap. Literally can’t wait to go back 5 stars, service is a friendly 1-man show but wow so good. THANK YOU GOOGLE for another awesome find.

I was hoping for some BBQ, and what I found sheltered in a small building between a honey dew donuts and gas station was the best brisket ive had in a very long time, to the point its changed my opinion on whether or not I liked Brisket- I love it. If you have the time, and you wont need much of it, you have to stop by here and get lunch from the kind gentleman.

Service was fast, but the food doesn't taste like it. It tastes like someone has painstakingly cooked the BBQ for hours. Being from the South I had missed good BBQ, but this place scratched that itch. Pulled meat Mac and cheese is fantastic as were the ribs. The only thing that wasn't superb was the Cole slaw, but it was still good. Not a sit down spot, but great takeaway.

Pulled up to what was a convenience store and donut shop. Found that in the middle of both, inside the same store share by all 3, was the best little hole in the wall BBQ joint. We were planning on going somewhere else but it was too late for that so we chose some BBQ. Very glad we did. I had to "complain" about how low the prices are. 1 Rib for $3.50? Should be $5 at least. The brisket itself was phenomenal. We watched him pull an entire pork shoulder out of the smoker and prep it for pulling. The bark on my brisket was fantastict. Will be back again now that we know it is there.

This place is easily the best bbq in the metro west and probably in the greater Boston area. The smoked brisket is perfectly done, juicy tender, perfectly marbled and beautiful rendered. The owner Bob is a brisket king. Beautiful brioche buns, absolutely delicious sides; Mac and cheese was so satisfying and the beans had a super unique flavor plus the collared greens had amazing flavor and were cooked perfectly. This bbq joint is the whole. damn. package. I recommended 11/10. Do a big takeout order or a family style dinner. You'll be back for more. Good honest business. Love supporting places like this. It's in a gas station but don't let that fool you on quality - this place fires out high caliber product like a Texas or Kansas City smokehouse. It's excellent. Go try it!

I found this place after searching for places to eat around my job. I was tired of eating the same old thing on my cheat days. Small place with great food. It is inside a honeydew along with a convenience store. They do offer online ordering, but since they just switched systems my order didn't go through even though I got an email confirmation and pick-up time. When I went to pick up my food he was able to make it right then and there. He was very sympathetic and apologetic and explained what happened. The food was good. Could use a little bit more flavor, but still very tasty. The whole office smelled like heaven. The price is good for the portion size. Will order again soon. Stop by for some great service and good food.

Pulled pork was SO GOOD. Actually, everything we had was outstanding. Pulled pork, brisket, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, coleslaw, and corn bread were 10/10. Highly recommend and definitely will be going back! This is better BBQ than some of the “high end” bbq restaurants I’ve been to in Boston.

These were some of the best ribs, brisket, and Mac and cheese that I’ve ever had! Also great value for the price, all the meat as plentiful and high quality.
