    This food truck came to our building today. They were supposed to be here at 4 p.m. and 4 p.m…read more came and went. I kept checking by looking out the window to see if they arrived. Finally building management sent out a message saying the truck would be here at 5:15 p.m. When food trucks come here, we are given a link where we can order our food in advance and it will be ready at the time you want. We never partook of this option because we knew things could go wrong. Today, especially, we were really glad! Once the truck arrived, the man who worked there, came out to apologize saying he had to replace some equipment which caused them to be late. Also, although he didn't mention it, I think he probably got caught in rush hour traffic as they are Woodbridge based. He then told me they would be ready to take orders in 20 minutes. So...we waited as did a young woman who had placed an advance order only to be told it was cancelled. Thus, she had to place her order again and at least she made sure she wasn't charged twice for her food. We ordered 2 brisket sandwiches. These sandwiches are topped with cole slaw. That's something we didn't want as we think it can interfere with the brisket flavoring. We asked if they could put it on the side and they said "yes". We also ordered one side of mac & cheese plus one side of beans. All of this came to $50---yikes! The sandwiches came out in those to-go containers which are basically thin cardboard vessels with no covers (see my photo). The beans and the mac & cheese were very small portions and were put into small food containers with no lids. We're glad we brought some plastic bags to bring the food upstairs! Having to do so was no fun at all. As for the food --- The sandwiches were small with not much brisket in them. There was a side of bbq sauce which we used. The sauce was on the tangy side. While the brisket was moist, there wasn't much flavor. It would have benefitted greatly if a rub was used. The cole slaw was decent---no complaints there. The mac & cheese was luke warm but it was the way we like mac & cheese which is simply made---no fancy cheeses or any other additions. We just wish it was hotter. The beans were similar to Boston Baked beans but without the undercurrent of sweetness found in the Boston ones. They were okay---nothing to write home about. Yelp is prodding me to mention "ambiance". Well...it's a food truck that's nicely decorated. If they came back to our building, we don't plan to order again, in large part due to the pricing. Each little side we got cost $8 each!

    Ah, no. Too many red flags on the play. If you Smoke, BBQ and grill but don't make your own sauce,…read morenot a good sign. And the slop in the cup is disappointing. Please notify people this is a food truck.

They offered it with lettuce, tomato and mayo (bologna burger) but I couldn't imagine that. Size was great, mustard sauce was good, bun was different...and I wanted to love the bologna sandwich thinking it would bring back childhood feel good memories or give me the taste of a hot dog and it didn't. When dipped in the mustard sauce minus the bread it was just ok. They are still in the beginning stages and don't have a full menu of offerings yet. Once they have the smoked wings and vegetable sides (they have fries, baked beans and coleslaw) I will go back and give them another try. Until....

The service is fast, but depending on how many people order before you. I do see a lot of take out order (or pre-order (assuming)). The portion is about right. If you ask me what's the different between big franchise BBQ and local, I think it is the quality of service and time to cook. Depending on your perspective of BBQ, the prices are toward high end. There are many option on the menu, but maybe too many options. The full plates is over $30 with 1/2 lbs meat and two side dishes. Parking is easy to find. Overall great experience. I was hoping they have a brisket w/o the bun.

    Dale's Smokehouse was my latest Sunday barbecue adventure, and let me tell you--it did not…read moredisappoint. From the outside, it looked decent enough to warrant a stop, and since it's right next door to Grinder's Seafood (seafood lovers, your review is coming next), I figured why not make the trip worthwhile? When I walked in, three ladies were sitting at a small table, and one immediately got up to greet me and take my order. After checking out the menu, I decided on the rib and chicken platter--which does not come with sides--and the rib dinner with green beans and sweet potatoes. Of course, I couldn't resist adding an extra side of potato salad. While waiting, I took in the atmosphere. Dale's has more of a country store vibe than anything fancy, but that just made me think all the real effort was going straight into the food. And clearly, it was. My order was prepared and packed up quickly, but I didn't get the full experience until I made it home--and MAN! The portion sizes were huge. Definitely enough to get your money's worth. The ribs were tender, the chicken was perfectly charred and seasoned, and the sides absolutely delivered. That potato salad especially? Spot on. Dale's may be tucked away in old Indian Head, but it's absolutely worth the trip. If you're in the mood for hearty portions, flavorful barbecue, and no-frills comfort food, this spot deserves a visit. I'll definitely be back for the pork BBQ. Enjoy!

    Food is always great here. There potato salad is my go to side. Ribs are amazing and so are there…read moresandwiches can't go wrong with any of the food they got.
