One pound of brisket
Bryan M.

The food here was delicious, fresh, and hot. You'll find him and his food truck in the parking lot of the Ace Hardware in Merritt Island. At least, that's where I found him. Not sure if he travels around the area or not TBH. Plenty of food for a reasonable price and he was pretty friendly too. Asked me if I had his wings yet, which I had not since it was my first time there. He then put a sampler 4 in a container for me to take with me, for free. Pretty awesome. The sides are all generous too. I got a pound of sliced brisket and 2 sides (plus those 4 wings), and it fed both me and my 16 yr old with a black hole stomach, with leftovers. I think I spent around $15 for the whole order.

Awesome wings with a side of baked beans.

I had to drop off my wife and daughter at Port Canaveral for a cruise around 12noon. I was hungry and started looking for a place for lunch. A little hidden behind ACE Hardware in Merritt Island is Big Don's BBQ. I ordered a pound of brisket and an order of wings. The brisket was great! Great seasoning and tender. Wings were great with a unique but very good buffalo sauce. Highly recommend!!!!

Slices of tenderloin, beans and Mac and cheese.

You know, I've tried more burger spots than I care to admit, and I'm usually pretty hard to impress…read more, but this place genuinely won me over. Their smash burgers aren't just good; they're the kind that make you pause halfway through and think, "Alright, this is how a burger is supposed to be done." No shortcuts, no trendy gimmicks just that classic, time-tested flavor done right, the way it ought to be. The patties come off the grill with that perfect crispy edge, the kind you only get when someone actually knows what they're doing back there. Everything tastes honest, fresh, and carefully made. You can tell there's pride and love behind it. And the people? Honestly, that's half the charm. Everyone from the folks taking orders to the owners themselves treats you like you're a regular even if it's your first time walking in. They've got that old-school friendliness you don't see much anymore. Cool, down-to-earth, actually present. It gives the place a warmth that you can't fake. All in all, if you're after the best smash burger around and a place where the people are just as good as the food, this is the spot. I'd go back in a heartbeat....

Absolutely amazing food and service! The burgers are huge, flavorful and juicy. The cowboy sauce is…read moredelicious with the fries too! The new pulled pork fries were absolutely amazing. The flavor in the bar b q sauce is a perfect touch. The fried onions give a perfect texture balance! So happy we stopped!

Easily one of the best food trucks I've tried around Brevard County myself. I seen the truck set up…read moreone day near my neighborhood and stopped to try some food. Everything was pretty cost efficient looking at the menu prices. Most food trucks I've seen are overpriced and have smaller portions. I didn't try everything they were cooking, but the chicken tacos were on point. Some of the best chicken I've ever tasted really. It instantly stood out when I took a bite. Idk how they got so much flavor in it. Must be triple marinated or something. There were steak and shrimp options I seen also. Diff bowls, tacos, and burrito options on the menu. A couple side items to choose from as well. The food was ready quite quickly. Everything was nice and fresh. They also had this homemade mango salsa that was ridiculously good. You could tell they spent a ton of time preparing that and everything else they had to offer. Like I said I didn't try everything, but looking forward to when I see them again. Idk where they set up at regularly, but they said you could contact them for private events if need be and gave me a card. I'm guessing they're at diff places in general. Anyways def would recommend giving them a shot if you see them out.

They came by our office today in Melbourne and they sell the best steak tacos I've ever had. I…read morepurchased two tacos; they were quite big and worth the price. The meat was very flavorful and tender. They also offer wraps and bowls that looked equally as good! I look forward to trying other options on their menu.
