    Keep your hats on for this review, my people! Here's the spice of life. We came here for dinner after spending the day on Vashon Island and weren't sure at first if we'd been to this BBQ place before. After parking and thinking back to around Covid, we remembered, yes, we had been here once before, and it was all "to go." So this time, we jumped at the chance to sit, relax, and enjoy. We ordered a pound of beef brisket and two orders of fried okra. The brisket was juicy, tender, and not too spicy. It comes dry with sauce on the side, and there are plenty of delicious sauces for your taste buds to enjoy. After receiving our brisket, my beloved and I wondered where our okra was. Watching everyone come and go, plus pickup orders, we thought it was taking a while because the okra is made fresh to order. Boy, were we wrong. After about 30 to 45 minutes of chatting and trying to figure out if it's made fresh, coated, then fried, or thawed and fried, we decided to ask. Luckily, we did because no one heard our order being called back to the kitchen. That was strange since the kitchen staff member who took our order had gone back to cooking. Maybe he thought it was dropped or the order had been made. No harm, no foul. After several eye-to-eye exchanges with staff and possibly the owner, he asked if we were waiting or needed something. We mentioned the two orders of okra. They apologized for not making the order, refunded us, and still made the okra. But wait, ladies and gentlemen, it gets even better! Not only did we get our okra, but I believe the owner also gave us smoked chicken, more brisket, sausage, beef ribs, and two delicious brownies. I know this is long, but I appreciate you sticking with me until the end. This was the perfect way to end our day! It was significant because it was our 20th Wedding Anniversary and 22 years together. We did not mention this to anyone until after everything had happened. If the owner reads this review, please know how much you blessed us with your transparency and effort to provide the best experience. The gentleman who gifted us the fantastic food and refunded our money for the okra, which he wasn't obligated to do, was incredibly kind and polite about the mistake. We truly appreciate his kindness, and he appreciated our patience and understanding. Overall, even without the extra attention, we will return because the restaurant is clean, the food stays fresh, and the service is excellent. It's incredible how some of the best BBQ is right here in Gig Harbor.

    I lived in Texas for 14 years and have been to all the great BBQ spots in Kansas City. Here in Washington we just don't have great BBQ......or so I thought!!! This place does a nice job of making Texas style BBQ! Had the brisket and the jalapeño cheddar sausage. Was given a free sample of the smoked pork butt (super tender and great smoke flavor) as well. Ordered a side of beans and they were really good too! Like a lot of Texas places you buy the meats by the pound and they do not offer combo plates. Really wish they did. Would have loved a plate with a couple sides. Good was really good though and I found a spot to scratch the BBQ itch!

    I gave BBQ2U another try, and that one visit turned into many more. The meat is solid, though sometimes a little on the mild side, but the BBQ sauce more than makes up for it. It's fantastic--and they even bottle and sell it. Bring back an empty bottle, and you get half off your refill, which is a great deal. The fries are also excellent, always cooked fresh, and the staff here are incredibly friendly and personable. They take the time to chat and even remember you when you come back. I personally always get a brisket sandwich slathered in sauce.

    I was pleasantly suprised with the BBQ here! Stumbled upon this place when I was looking for something to eat in the Gig Harbor area. Texas style bbq with a focus on delicious smokey beef with sauce on the side. Went with the 1 lb beef brisket (fatty cuts of course), 1lb pork ribs, beef brisket and brisket chili. Sadly, they forgot to add the two sausages I ordered so I cannot comment on them. Beef brisket was very succulent and delicious. The beef rib is always a favored cut of mine and always get this if available. Enough meat for two people as the rib is enormous. Pork ribs were very tender fall of the bone. Brisket chili was interesting riff that had sweet corn mixed in. BBQ for a bit over $100 it was enough food for about 5 meals so all in all not a bad deal. I hope they remember the sausages next time!

    I was craving BBQ, and have been wanting to try BBQ2U for a while. My husband and I stopped in during the week after work looking for a quick bite to eat in the plaza. Not knowing what to expect, surprisingly, there was a solid line to order your food at the counter. There is plenty of seating inside, and they offer to-go and online orders. You wait in line to order, and then also wait at the counter to get your food. There isn't a "take your name" or "call your number" system, but the food is worth the wait. We both ordered brisket sandwich, with chips and a fountain soda. They also have a selection of unique bottled sodas. The sandwich was simple, but still delicious. They have an area with sauces you can choose from, but I wished they were labeled so you know what sauce was what. There's also an area to purchase sauces and rubs to take home, and other merchandise items. It's a cool local spot that filled my BBQ craving. There is a BBQ boat that I want to try next time!

    So this is Texas bbq- which should be all about the brisket. And...the brisket was phenomenal! Best I've had outside of Texas. Perfect! The red hot sausage was good- but cooled off to fast. Great flavor though. The ribs were good. My wife love them. I prefer a little more fall off the bone, but no complaints. The pulled pork was not up to my standard. It's OK as I will be ordering brisket only next time. The sides- potato salad and French fries were great. The coleslaw was good - not perfect, but good. The beans had good reviews. The mac and cheese got thumbs down from the family. Overall- really good Texas bbq!

    last bite of the brisket sandwich monster size. DELICIOUS

    Are there lunch plates or are all meats only purchased by the pound? The pics from a number of years ago show lunch "trays", with a choice of meats and a certain # of sides but all I see on the current website is by the pound.

    Hello! Great questions. A short time ago, we started selling meats by the pound only. You can still arrange them on a tray, but they are sold by the pound! Let us know what… Read more

    Our first time here. Food is on point! Legit Soul Fool! *Keep in mind this may not be considered…read moreTexas/Kansas style BBQ, this is honest to God Soul Food!* The mac & cheese and greens do not disappoint. Service is great, lovely little family-owned/run shop. Ambiance is typical of an eatery, small dining area with about 6 dual-seat tables. It would be difficult to feed a family of more than 4 people, however, they specialize in take out anyway.

    As a certified BBQ judge, I take my barbecue seriously--and I always focus on how well the meat is…read morecooked. While seasoning preferences vary across regions, properly cooked meat is a universal standard. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner and (I believe) his mother--both incredibly kind and welcoming. Their hospitality alone makes this place worth visiting. I ordered the two-meat plate: ribs and brisket. The ribs, which the owner proudly recommended, were excellent. They had a perfect tender pull without falling off the bone--just how properly cooked ribs should be. The flavor was solid, though I would have preferred to try them without the sauce, which was poured over the top. The brisket, unfortunately, was a bit tough. The flavor was decent, but the texture missed the mark, especially since brisket is a personal favorite of mine. Overall, the ribs were a standout, and the warm, family-run vibe made the experience memorable. I'll definitely be back--if not just for the ribs, then for the people.
