    Sauces
    Rhett B.

    I have been wanting to explore Madisonville and this BBQ joint was the first place to try. Brother's is located in a shopping center and on a Saturday morning at 11am, it was very sleepy. When you walk in, you order at the counter. I usually go for the combo plate but it was $25 and I was eating early supper so I passed. I went with pork plate. I have to learn to tell myself to look over the whole menu because some places like Brother's offer premium sides. The pulled pork with a sweet tea and tax was $18 something. I felt like there was enough pork but the sides could have had bigger portions for that price. The pulled pork was enjoyable but not elite. The slaw was creamy and lightly sweet. The potato salad had celery in it which I hate. I asked if I could have another side and asked for beans instead. They were gracious and gave me another side. The beans had a sweet taste. The best part of the meal to me was the sweet tea. It doesn't get better than the fresh brewed cold sweet taste of it! There are 3 sauces. Only the mild and rib are on the table but the hot is the superior sauce in my opinion. The hot isn't that hot to me...maybe a 3 out of 10 on the heat but it has a peppery taste to it. It reminds me of a Texas style BBQ sauce. The mild seems to be like a honey mustard type and the rib was midly sweet and bold. Overall, it was pretty good and a solid four. The atmosphere is a little dull with no TVs and only Christian music playing. The place looks kind of fancy. But anyway based on my meal today, you can find satisfaction here.

    all cold 10 people in out of sides brisket was almost all fat what wasn't was hard and overcooked What can you expect for a 20 plate of food I guess

    Waiting area if busy or take out.

    If you somehow run by Madisonville, KY, stop here. Chicken was smoked and chicken breast was a little bit dry. Rib sauce helped. Dark meat was juicy and rest of meats. Sides were good. Make sure you make time to enjoy your meal. Lots of comfort food.

    Always clean and great salads. They are really nice. My favorite is the grill chicken salad.

    For a barbecue restaurant, my favorite dish is the fish sandwich. The fish is twice as large as the bun. Steaks are also very good.

    Had the brisket plate with baked beans, mac n cheese and Texas toast. It was good. Portions weren't too big but overall I recommend.

    Not a fan of the food there. Service is good and it's a nice place. Just not the best bbq in town.
