We had the pork sandwich, brisket, fries and collard greens!!! Wow!! Amazing! Glad we came from Florida and gave this place a shot!!!!

No. Firsts off, the hours were not as advertised, showed up and closed. Second, I immediately got sick after having lunch and I don't usually have a weak GI tract! Friendly staff and prices cannot be beat. Would I try again?? Sure, sometimes places can have a one off and the flavor was good. read more

Some of the best bbq we've had! Best baked beans and okra ever! We'll definitely be back.

Combo plate was delicious! It was enough to feed me and my boyfriend. All the sauces are amazing, I would totally recommend!! Sweet people read more

Horrible bbq. Never had South Carolina bbq before being from Oklahoma but I have to assume it's not usually this tough and fatty. The Carolina Gold sauce was good. Not going to miss this place. read more

My unofficial search for the best BBQ in SC stumbled across Burly Bill's on the way back thru Marietta and TR towards Greenville. It's a trailer (with a faded Yelp decal!), usually open only Fri-Sat-Sun, and the only seating is outside under a tent. But, "To Go" is the way to go, anyway. Lots of folks do pulled pork, very few do good Brisket. NONE I have tasted in SC do it any better than Burly Bill's. $17 a pound, and it was even on special for $15 for Memorial Day. This stop belongs on your BBQ bucket list! Make sure you ask for the Memphis homemade sauce. read more

Burly Bill's BBQ - The King of Briskets! - Barbeque Near Me - Marietta, South Carolina

I got a bbq sandwich. SO GROSS! The meat was well over half just greasy fat. "Barbequed" beans and coleslaw were not good either.

Good barbecue, traditional sides, good sauces. The prices aren't unreasonable. Don't go here expecting something healthy. The lady running it is friendly and as fast as she can be. Im pretty sure they fry the fry items to order so there is usually a little waiting. Sometimes they're not there when they say they will be (usually Fri, Sat & Sun) and its disappointing. read more

Ribs were dry. They just dribble a bit of sauce on them. If you want more you pay extra. Slaw was made from old tough cabbage. Didn't have much taste. Someone else in group had the brisket. He sad it was ok but indeed fatty. We love to give great ratings but cannot in this case. read more

Great BBQ, great ribs... great prices! And who doesn't want to stop at a place with a sign that says "Dig the Pig!"

We passed through this weekend on the way to Lake Jocasse. Bring cash when you stop here. We placed our order and had to find an atm. The store next door, their atm was down, so we had to travel to get to an atm. I was telling my wife, I sure hope that it is worth all this trouble. Well let me just say that the staff here was very friendly. The food was AMAZING! In fact i would say it is the best I have had in South Carolina. Great choice! I had the brisket sandwich. My wife had the large pulled pork sandwich and our children had the loaded fries. Everything was awesome!! It is worth the stop. They also give you large amounts so you will get full. read more

Searched Yelp for good BBQ in the upstate. Wasn't sure how barbecue would be from a food truck/trailer, but was pleasantly surprised. Had the pulled pork sandwich platter with baked beans and fried okra. The pork was chunky (in a good way), the hot sauce that I chose wasn't particularly hot, but was tasty nonetheless. Sides were good as well. My partner is a vegetarian and surprisingly there were vegetarian options, as the sides don't have meat in them and are not fried in the same oil with meet. Bill is a nice fellow and we ate at the covered picnic tables out front. Overall the food quality was very good, and the experience very pleasurable. Would definitely recommend this place if your looking for good barbecue in a casual setting. read more

This is the place to go after spending a day hiking. The food was cooked fresh and the portions were more than satisfying. The barbecue was juicy and will warm you up on cold days. The lady working was very patient and respectful towards us. Definitely would recommend to anyone who finds themselves on the path to them read more

Came across this BBQ stop while driving from Charlotte, NC to Clayton, GA and it did NOT disappoint. It was hands down the best BBQ we experienced while down south. The pulled pork and brisket was tender and full of flavor. The baked beans weren't too sweet and had a smokiness that really made them unique. Wish we lived by so we could swing by anytime! read more

Burly Bill's BBQ - Beef brisket, pulled pork, baked beans, slaw - Barbeque Near Me - Marietta, South Carolina

Being vegetarian and eating at a BBQ place is normally an oxymoron, but this place had plenty for me to eat. Only place in South Carolina that I can eat fried food that hasn't been fried in the same oil as meat. The fried okra was great and not greasy or over battered. read more

Burly Bill's BBQ - Front of the restaurant.. - Barbeque Near Me - Marietta, South Carolina

This place had the fattest meat I've ever had in my life. Wanted to try a local place off the road and totally regret this decision. Please don't stop here. You'll be sorry read more

Slap yo momma good! Brisket is perfect! Not dry, juicy, nice marble... it literally melts in your mouth. Best I have had yet! There were several selections of sauces, decided on the sweet spicy. Glad I did because we guzzled it! The sides were very good too. Coleslaw wasn't run of the mill, had a smoky flavor without a ton of vinegar, baked beans weren't overly seasoned but very good! Only thing I could say was missing was a beer and corn on the cobb. Had great iced tea... every sip brought me back to my Grandmother's house. Will definitely be back already have plans! I highly recommend stopping on your way down the mountain. read more

Great bbq!! We stopped here on our way home from Lake Jocassee and the flavor is awesome. We will be back!

Just the place! We had looked all over South Carolina from the shores to the mountains for authentic South Carolina BBQ. Although we ate at several places, we found what we were looking for at Burly Bills. The smoky pulled pork in chunks with some crispy edges was fabulous! The ribs were smoky, tender with a nice sauce. Four house made sauces were offered. The Carolina mustard sauce was exceptional. The spicy sauce was exceptional as well, but being from Texas it was just a yummy medium. read more

Super nice folks running the place. Last year they gave us free watermelon for dessert and had kids setup outside selling lemonade. We tried a few different meats. It was like eating a fat sandwich. While I appreciate the flavor that fat adds, it was way too much for our groups taste. Once you pulled all the fat off the sandwhich there wasn't anything left. The sides weren't bad but they weren't memorable either. read more

Awesome no frills, roadside BBQ. Stopped here after a local hike with husband and dog and it was the perfect authentic bbq refuel we were craving. Sat outside on the picnic tables and Bill even offered our dog a tasty bbq bone. Everything was delish, we had the ribs, brisket and pulled pork and loved the vinegar sauce. Beans and fried okra also recommended. Thanks, Bill! read more

Some of the best BBQ I've had. Right amount of outside brown, smoky and sweet. Grilled buns topped it off nicely.

Wonderful Brisket and Pulled pork sandwiches. Generous portions. Priced well. Sides were just ok. Definitely stick to the pulled pork or Brisket here. Very good. read more

Holy cow. Been here twice. From now on when we go hiking in table rock or Jones gap or caesars head we will always stop here! The first time I wasn't sure as it's a BBQ trailer on the side of the highway. But the "BEEF BRISKET" on the side of the trailer lured me near. It was ah-maze-balls! Humongous brisket sandwich (I'm talking big- they use a large wide bun and pile it with brisket), best 7$ I've spent in a long time Second trip there was with friends and family and we all ordered food- brisket sandwich again of course!! But the icing on the cake was when the lady brought out a nutty buddy snack bar as a complimentary desert for each the four children with us- how nice! Don't pass up on a hidden gem like this one read more

Shayna served us some delicious barbecue with a smile. She went overboard and preparing it just the way I wanted. Very glad we stopped here I do not except credit cards so bring cash. Well worth the stop! read more

want to feel like you just had amazing cook off bbq? without having to wait for the judging and competition to end? wait no more--I had the pulled pork sandwich hubs had the brisket and both were AMAZING all caps needed. the beans were not cans with seasoning added you could taste the flavors all through obvious homemade sauce. Service was friendly and the outdoor seating is part of the charm of the place. We stopped because it had all 5s on its yelp review and here is another solid five. read more

really great BBQ. The best bbq in the upstate and well worth the drive, even just for a sandwich. Don't stop at just the sandwich, the beans and slaw are awesome also. Turkey legs have any others beat hands down. read more

First time today, Ribs were great but the pulled pork with a vinegar base sauce was kiss ass. Will stop there any time I am up that way. Great service too !! read more

Awesome authentic BBQ. Bill the owner knows how to make smoking BBQ. Funky location but that added to the charm. Enjoy!!

THE BEST BBQ around. I love their food, and travel 20 miles for it. If you stop in once, you'll be back. Yeah, I hike TR and JG sometimes, but Burly's is often enough reason alone to journey to Cleveland.-jj read more

The food was nothing special. BBQ was very fatty. Also the inside of the "food trailer" did not look clean. Staff was friendly which is why I gave 2 stars. read more

We have driven by countless times after table rock WE will not miss this place again. Great BBQ all around. Ribs, pulled pork, brisket all really well done. Go hike a mountain then fit this place into your after hike recovery. The coleslaw was great too! read more

Burly Bill spent time in Oklahoma where he learned to do Texas style beef brisket. I buy it by the pound in chunks for church pot luck dinners and cut it into cubes so more people have a chance to sample it. It goes fast. Bill doesn't like to slice the beef because he feels it dries out the meat. That black burnt crust -- that's the best part. He has three types of sauce and each is great although I prefer the vinegar sauce. It doesn't hide the flavor of the smoke. He also does great South Carolina style pork. Warning. Bring cash. He does not accept credit cards. Rumor is that the Swamp Rabbit hike and bike trail is going to be extended to in back of his food trailer. That will give the bicycle riders extra incentive. read more
