We even got to chat with Eddie the Pitmaster for a couple of minutes, he is the real deal. I love BBQ and to me, there is no such thing as bad BBQ. That said, this was super good. I tried their Beef Brisket Platter and part of their The Pig Mac. With Manny the humanoid pig looking on, we dove in. The brisket was flavorful, no sauce needed. There was plenty of fat and plenty of slices. For my two sides I tried their coleslaw, which was fine, and their cucumber salad. I'm a big flavor guy and love cucumber slices soaked in vinegar. After we had ordered our food another customer stopped by our table and praised their The Pig Mac so much, we added it to our order. What a great recommendation. It is a sandwich with a cheesy patty of mac n' cheese, pulled pork on the side. We even got another side and tried their potato salad made with both white and sweet potatoes. I liked the thinking outside the box potato salad. The pulled pork, like the brisket, stood very well on its own without sauce. The pork topping the cheesy patty just worked so well. We will be back.

Highly recommend the Cuban!

They have a few picnic tables out front and more seating inside. We got a parking spot no problem and went inside. It is an order at the counter place with a dark wood feel. This is not your typical BBQ place, their website describes their restaurant as fast casual + BBQ fusion. Many traditional BBQ items such as ribs and baked beans are not on the menu, yet they offer other items like a Cuban sandwich. I went BBQish and ordered their Double Brisket Burger, and Canadian with a large order of Poutine. I recommend checking out the menu before you go the first time just to make sure you see something you want. My brisket burger was very tender and easy to eat. I liked it even though the caramelized onion added a burnt taste. It was a lot of food. The flavor of the poutine was subtle, and was a lot of fries. High marks on their Cuban sandwich from my dinner companion. I liked the place, liked the people, liked the other customers who we chatted with. We are local but seldom make it out to the beach so nice vacation vibes rubbed off on us as well. We left full and happy.

I almost asked them to put the coleslaw on the side, but I entrusted chef JP to leave it on and was glad I did! Collard greens flavorful as well, and not overpowering as they sometimes can be. My husband ordered the 1/2 bbq chicken which was also delicious: tender, moist, fall off the bone with a perfect bbq sauce( not too sweet, no vinegar). Green beans were yummy, and he also had a side of coleslaw and a roll. Would have liked to try the Mac n cheese and baked beans, but will leave that to next time. Prices were reasonable as well. Owners JP and his wife Sherein were delightful and the kind of people you want to succeed.

The cornbread and bbq sauces were also super tasty. Also, since it was our first time visiting, T threw in some sodas for free, which was so nice!

I came with a friend who said they have the best crab cakes. So we each ordered the Maryland Crab Cake meal. Wow I was blown away with how delicious the crab cake is. These crab cakes have an overabundance of crab meat and very little to no filler. The outside had a slight crispiness. The flavor was perfect and left me wishing I had ordered 2 crab cakes. For my sides I had the Deep Fried Corn on the Cob. I foolishly thought it would had been breaded and looking like a corn dog. I was wrong. It was extremely dried out corn. After about 2 bites, I gave up on it. My meal came with 2 Corn Fritters. Their appearance look fabulous, but they were a huge disappointment. The Corn Fritters tasted like a loaf of white bread with no corn flavor. I also had the Spinach Soufflé. I truly enjoyed this.

When I entered I was immediately greeted and told I could sit anywhere I'd like. I sat at a booth and the waitress brought a menu and a wooden pig with all the available sides. Ordered the smoked turkey size large with collard greens and baby potatoes. The turkey was amazing - I could have eaten it without sauces but I tried both of their homemade barbecue sauces and they're both good...one tangy and the other one a little spicy. Waitress checked in a couple times, I cleaned the plate and was out the door. Great barbecue - can't wait to try some more.
