If you are looking for some great fire pit grub for lunch or dinner you need to try the Backyard Firepit. The brisket sandwich is so good it doesn't need the sauce. Moist, flavorful and topped with a bit of pickled onion. Sit in the back and enjoy the music. You're in for a treat. read more

My partner and I have been waiting for this truck to open for a few days now and the moment finally arrived.  We got 3 meats (beef brisket, ribs, pulled pork) and 2 sides (backyard slaw, salt potatoes) along with a 1/2 lb of the pulled chicken. The beef brisket and pulled chicken were both solid, but the standouts were the ribs and the pulled pork.  The meat on ribs was tender and juicy and slipped right off the bone!  The pulled pork was moist and the texture was soft.  The already delicious meats were enhanced by their original and hot bbq sauces! The cole slaw was not too sweet or sour and was just right...the salt potatoes were hearty and were nestled in a pool of melted butter.  Additionally, the corn bread served as a nice dessert. This is the perfect place to fix your bbq meat jones! read more

Best brisket I have had. Is 400 miles too far to drive for brisket?Considering this important question now that I'm home from vacation.

Awsome bbq food truck in front of house . The food was Awsome, pulled pork and brisket was tops ! Sides too . read more

There really is no ambiance as it is a cute little food truck meant for takeout. My family really enjoyed the brisket, pork, muffins, potatoes, Mac & cheese, and the peach BBQ Sauce! It was sooo good and very welcome as we are new in the area and were happy to find something OPEN and tasty!! Service was quick! read more

First visit. I was the only customer. I noticed an off smell while standing there in front of the food truck and almost left. Smelled like bad cooking oil. Anyway, I took a chance and ordered a pulled pork sandwich. It also didn't smell good as I drove back to the motel. It turns out it was the bun that was funky. Tasted like old oil. The pork was okay. The first pieces were pretty tasty but a quarter of my sandwich was comprised of inedible membrane ( I have never seen this stuff in a pulled pork sandwich)! This should have be removed when they pulled the pork. And many pieces were probably close to the exterior of the meat which was rubbed with salt as they were very salty. I avoid food trucks but tried this one because of the high health rating and high Yelp reviews. My meal was a disappointment. read more

Amazing food! My mom, daughter, and I split the three meat combo (chicken, brisket, and pork). Our sides were slaw, macaroni and cheese, smoked mushrooms, potatoes, and cucumbers. My favorite dish was the mushroom side. I could have eaten those all day and the garlic sauce served with them was chef's kiss. We tried the regular bbq and the white bbq. Both were delicious. Of the meat I loved the pork. My daughter loved the mac and cheese and coleslaw. My mom loved the pork, brisket, and potatoes. Everything was perfect. We sat on the back patio and enjoyed the music and plants. The service was friendly and fast. read more

Hands down- BEST RACK OF RIBS EVER! Seriously if I lived here this would be my go to spot. The slaw is delicious too and I really enjoyed the sides of sauces they make too! Family that runs it is also super nice! Honestly- this is MUST when you are visiting. read more

Went to the Backyard Firepit and had the AWESOME folks there make my wife and i our carryout dinner. Smoked Brisket, Pork and Potatoes with a Cuban Sandwich on the side (My personal Favorite). Dinner Was Great. The most fun is if there is leftovers, now what to do with them. The next morning I made a Brisket with lump crab meat omelet. The Potatoes went the next diced as home fries. You Guys are GREAT and your FOOD is even better Art read more

Excellent place to stop and pick up a tasty lunch. Many choices for BBQ chicken, pork, and more. Very friendly service also.

Best BBQ sandwich I've had in a while. Got the Cuban with fries. Delicious and generous portions.

First time. Very disappointed in the brisket sandwich. The brisket was dry and then loaded into a dry bun. All the sauce in the world couldn't save the sandwich. Ended up trashing the bun and dipping the brisket in the sauce which wasn't too bad. The fries were very soft and greasy. I gave two stars because I like the owners and hope they do well. read more

Pulled pork was delicious, even without any sauce! Ribs were excellent. Their regular BBQ sauce is VERY spicy. Try it before slathering it on! Great Mac-n-cheese. Cornbread was so-so. I look forward to getting the beans w/meat on our next vacation there! Don't hesitate, they know BBQ! read more

I don't give less than 5 stars because I have family in the restaurant industry and I know how much it hurts rankings, etc. BUT we had the ribs yesterday and I tasted zero smoke- not even a little. Not to mention we got home and ready to eat but they forgot the sauce! Went back and they actually acted like "oh yea"- won't be back. read more

Backyard Firepit - Half rack $17.00 - not worth it! - Food Trucks Near Me

Went at 5PM on Friday. Looks as if it has been closed all day. Perhaps you should update your hours.

We have been trying to eat here for years but kept missing when they were open. We ate there today and it was absolutely delicious!! We got the ribs, pulled pork and the brisket. The brisket was a little dry but very tasty. The ribs were my favorite and her coleslaw is the best I've ever had!! read more

10/10 absolutely incredible. Ordered the brisket but everything looked amazing. Highly recommend!

Delicious food and fast, friendly service. Best BBQ since we moved from Texas! We ordered the pulled pork, brisket, pulled chicken, beans (to die for!), cole slaw and cucumber salad. We will be back tomorrow! read more

We've become Backyard Firepit regulars. The ribs are consistently great along with all of the other meats. They know their way around a smoker. My wife loves The Launchpad (buffalo chicken sandwich). They also have good sides, including a vinegar slaw that I like a lot. read more

This place is OUT OF CONTROL!! Best BBQ on the island by far. MUST try the Launch Pad sandwich (pulled chicken w/ buffalo sauce, cheese, bacon, and ranch) yum!!! read more

Excellent ribs. We got two full racks and they were big racks with dry rub and many sauces to choose from. I will definitely return.

This is the best barbecue I have ever eaten! We had the ribs, cole slaw and salt potatoes. The ribs were outstanding. The rub on them is slightly sweet, Smokey and salty. They are so delicious that you do not need sauce. If you want sauce, there are several choices that you can have one the side. The meat on the ribs is cooked perfectly and falls right off the bone. I can't recommend them highly enough! This place blows Woody's out of the water! read more

We heard about this food truck through the grapevine and are soo glad we tried it! We got brisket, pulled pork and sides....soooo wonderful--especially the Mac and cheese!! Staff was friendly and service was great. Nice area to sit and enjoy lunch! We will definitely be back! (you can also order to go, just fyi.) read more

Outstanding food truck with outstanding bbq. The people who run this little gem have hit a home run with the quality of their service and menu. read more

Excellent food! Excellent service! A great place to pick up food to go when in chincoteague.,

Ate here for the first time last year and was by far the best bbq on the island, coming down next weekend and will be stopping to get one of the yummy combo meals read more

Chicken, brisket and pork are what we tried. The combos were great! Good sized, tasty and the sauces were excellent! Sides were super as well. Worked out nice with traffic on main and maddox this is a close in, just off the main drag destinations. Few days later, we have tried the ribs and the whole chicken, both were superb! Parking in back as well. Great to eat outside or a grab and go experience! read more

I'll tell ya what, I've had a lot of barbecue, but this was outstanding! The brisket was so tender and cooked perfectly. The slaw side and cornbread was delicious! The only thing was that I didn't do was double up on the brisket! It was that good! Will be coming back again for sure! read more

My husband and I found this place on Yelp and decided to try it out. It was AMAZING! Literally a food truck in someone's front yard, but the people were so nice and friendly, the wait wasn't long at all and there are tables to eat at there. The food was delicious! I got the one meat two side combo and the portions were hefty! I couldn't finish it all!!! read more

We loved this place! Thoroughly enjoyed the smoked Cuban sandwich and the brisket logs! The sauces were excellent and worth trying. It is moderately priced and large portions. This food truck has outdoor seating with umbrellas to help you beat the heat. We'll be back! read more

I was all ready to be bummed out because they were sold out of everything except the soup, baked beans, and chicken, but holy smokes, that alone was totally fantastic. The soup...my goodness it was delicious. read more

Had the pulled pork sandwich and was disappointed at the very dry meat and sad crumbley bun. Pork had great flavor and the sauces were good. They were out of ribs and brisket. Did not try the slaw. Fries were really good. Outdoor seating limited and tables aren't accommodating to all sizes and heights. Very friendly owners. Parking in rear. read more

Great beef brisket , and ok pulled pork. However the ribs where sad no meat and overcooked and chicken was just ok. I would go back for the beef and sauces read more

Was visiting the area and found amazing BBQ sandwiches and Mac , quick service , and a fair price. Definitely recommend if you're on Chincoteague! read more

Their smoked meats, homemade sides, and sauces are delish! Family-oriented, friendly service. The smoked Prime Rib specials are a "never to miss the opportunity". The brisket, chicken, and pork are all great as well. If they have it,(sells out fast), smoked bacon by the pound is mouth-watering. The first time I fixed it for breakfast we were SOLD! Does not have the heavy salty taste of store-bought bacon. Natural smoke and bacon flavors set this up to top shelf! read more

Wow incredible food at this new island food truck on Church St across from the Market. The Smoked Cuban sandwich was possibly my favorite on the island even rivals Woodys and Smokeys which our family loves. The homemade Bbq sauce was great with everything. Kids loved the wings. Definitely a great new place for all who visit the island. read more

dont go to smokeys on maddox! come here 100 billion times better!!! best barbecue on the island!!!!
