I went to this restaurant and it was pretty good. I had heard a lot about it, and it lived up to the hype. There was an ample amount of parking, the customer service was great, and everything was very neat and clean. I went right when they opened, and the food tasted really good no complaints there. I ordered the collard greens with turkey, but I didn't really get a smoked turkey flavor. The macaroni and cheese was okay definitely creamy. The potato salad was great, more on the sweeter side. I'll definitely be back to my local barbecue spot. They also have some really good desserts that I want to try next time. You can dine inside, and overall it feels like a bit of a hidden gem. Great customer service, clean environment I'll be back. read more

Really good customer service but not the best food. The macaroni was pretty good but everything else was mediocre. The sausage had no snap to it and just tasted like a hot dog. The brisket was really tough and had no bark. I was also not a fan of whatever seasoning they put on the chopped pork and bologna. 2 stars for the food but nice workers. read more

I ordered from this place and my order was incorrect no cornbread and the wrong cake- no chocolate cake . When I called the store, they blamed it on DoorDash and said that that was all they could do. This is a very poor place with poor customer service. Do Not patronize this establishment. when I told the gentleman I would leave a bad review he didn't care he laughed. read more

We stumbled upon this great BBQ place while leaving an event and we knew from the minute we walked in that we were in for a treat. The restaurant smells amazing and you can hear them chopping brisket in the back. The menu is easy to read, the prices are fair and the restaurant is clean. Now for the food- I got a smokehouse chicken sandwich which was 1/4 of a chicken with bread and their mac and cheese! It was heavenly! My fiancé got chopped brisket, 1 rib, friend baloney and sausage and he finished his food before I even got done with my sandwich (which I couldn't finish because it was SO much food!) . We travel around and try BBQ places and we both agreed that this is in our top 5 of any place we've been. If you're looking for some good, real bbq- you've found your place! read more

I've been here twice, much earlier in the year, and very recently. The good: I love the location. The ambiance inside is really nice and neat. Love the decor on the walls and the employees are very nice. The food: I'm so torn writing this review, but I have to say it. The coleslaw is chefs kiss, as well as the baked beans (LOVE the little kick in these ). Their BBQ sauce is 10/10‼ Now, I thought the beef sausage would be in one piece, so I could put it on like a hotdog bun, but it was chopped up in small pieces. It was decent, and a little greasy, but still tasty. So, here is where I struggle: I came here for southern BBQ, the star of the show. Unfortunately, I have to rate the ribs and brisket a 1 star. Don't get me wrong, the brisket was EXTREMELY tender (ribs, not as much but ok). My thing is this: WHERE IS THE SMOKE?????? None of these meats had ANY smoke flavor. I mean, literally zero. The brisket taste like it was oven baked, and truly lacked flavor / seasonings. Same for the ribs... Like they were oven baked, and maybe set to "broil" to obtain a "char." And not seasoned. Man, I was so disappointed. I REALLY wanted to love this place. I usually go to Herb's in Austell for my smoked meats bc they smoke that meat to the heavens, and u can really taste the seasonings and smoky flavor. However, their sides are terrible. If these two restaurants were closer to each other, I would go to Herb's for the meat, and C&B for the sides to make the meal perfect. read more

I paid a little over $18 for outgoing order of ribs with two sides. The ribs were inedible because they were oversalted I mean really over salted. This is with no barbecue sauce added. I had to throw it out I couldn't eat it. There was problems with the sides. read more

New name same great food a must when im in the Smyrna area. Save a appetite plates are packed with favorable BBQ and get a lemonade! read more

I went in to order sliced brisket, should've been easy peasy, especially since I called ahead like a responsible adult. Getting both sauces (sweet and spicy) when ordering multiple pounds felt like a small miracle. Sadly, the brisket was tough... as was everything else. read more

I'm going to give a straight forward review. The ribs lack smokiness, seasoning and were tough. The sauce is good. The mac looks/tastes like it was made by a fifthgrade boy. The greens don't taste traditional. No smokey meat flavor no vinegar. They just not right. The brisket is just some cooked and chopped up beef. No flavor. It doesn't even smell like real BBQ when you walk in. The sausage and bologna is really just warmed up and given to you. No grill marks. Soggy. The cornbread seems to be jiffy and under cooked. If you know GOOD bbq, you will be disappointed. Just got to Fox Brothers read more

Taste like a pork roast cooked in a crockpot with some sort of garlicy barbecue sauce. Ain't my thing. Didn't finish that meal. The meat is mushy. read more

Fantastic! I just left with a deep sense of delight. My coworker and I gave this little joint the try and were very surprised. He had the bologna sandwich with potato salad. I had the half chicken with collards, beans and cornbread. The meat was fall off the bone. We loved everything. Run don't walk here and make sure to put it in the rotation! read more

What an amazing meal! Came for the ribs but also decided to try the salmon. INSANE! Mac and cheese was creamy and full of flavor. Collard greens were perfectly seasoned. Corn bread was the perfect addition to a fantastic dinner. Can't wait to go back and try more from their menu! read more

I been going here for years but I may have outgrown this place. I got the chopped pork with baked beans and greens. The greens had no flavor and my pork had an after taste to me. I didn't taste grilled flavor but juices from the pork is what I got. My beans were good. Overall I would give a C+. read more

I've been coming here for years and this is one of my favorite BBQ spots. The food here is consistently amazing, flavorful, and purely delicious. The service here is always 5 star and the fact that the pricing has always been a good fit for my budget. I usually get the sliced chicken sandwich which comes with a side and I opt for the Mac n cheese or greens. Oh and I cannot forget the bbq sauce, the sweet and savory sauce that only adds to the deliciousness of the chicken. The chicken is always seasoned well and never salty or dry. The Mac n cheese has somehow gotten better. Its creamy and cheesy and always a wonderful compliment to the chicken sandwich. When I have decided on the greens, they are always full of flavor and good. I absolutely love coming here and when I'm in the mood for BBQ, I'm definitely taking a trip to Cousin's Brothers! read more

5/5 meat. Great flavor, great texture, great char 3/5 sauce. It was decent but there's only two 3/5 mac and cheese it was good but nothing special read more

This restaurant has been closed for a several months now.The food was good when they were opened. Family owned.

This place is SO GOOD. New go-to BBQ spot in Smyrna. Licked our plates clean lol. Will definitely be back

Stopped here on a whim. Ribs are delicious! Sides are just ok; tried the Mac n cheese coke slaw and greens. Corn bread is good. Prices are GREAT for the portions. read more

EVERYTHING is Good! I got the Chopped beef and Hot link plate with 2 ribs ala cart. Baked beans and Greens! Out of this world! And, the sweet tea was great! Good friendly service as well. Can't beat it! Especially before a Braves game! read more

The food is amazing. I love it. I come here at least twice a week. I recommend cousin brothers to everybody.

Best barbecue I've had in my life 10/10, would definitely recommend. The customer service was amazing, nice atmosphere.

Still my favorite BBQ spot! The food and service are always consistent, and the staff is always friendly. My favorite order is the two-meat plate with two sides. I usually go for the rib ends and sausage links, paired with baked beans and collard greens, and the mixed sauce. You can't go wrong with this order! read more

Tiny little place with fantastic bbq. My husband got the 5 rib platter, and said if he'd known how big they were going to be, he'd have probably only gotten 4. The meat was tender, juicy and well-flavored on its own. The hot bbq sauce added the finishing touch. I got the smoked salmon, which was wonderful. The best I've ever had. Firm but not dried out, with a seasoning rub that was perfect - not too salty. The garden salad was great. Not the usual handful of sad iceberg. This was a nice assortment of mixed greens, grape tomatoes and sliced cucumbers. The serving size was generous; the greens kept expanding as I ate the layers above. The slaw was excellent, crisp and not drowned in excess dressing. The potato salad was meh. I'd skip it. The staff were cheerful and friendly and the service was prompt. read more

I visited this spot today and I will give it 3 1/2 stars. For a platter and drink expect to pay about $20. This restaurant had a name change from Thompson's Brothers BBQ to Cousin's Brothers BBQ. I tried the smoked salmon. The salmon was fresh and seasoned well; however, I did not get the taste of a good smoked salmon. In fact it didn't taste smoked at all. As far as the sides, it wasn't anything to scream about. The mac & cheese was cooked more in a cheese sauce missing that old fashioned macaroni and cheese our grandparents use to make. The collard greens were bland, lacking any kind of flavor. The cornbread put me in the mind of Jiffy cornbread mix. Would I recommend the smoked salmon platter? It's a no for me. I have tried the ribs in the past when it was the Thompson's Brothers and I did find them quite tasty. Perhaps I will stick to the actual ribs, briskets, etc. next time. read more

The best BBQ of Cobb County!!! The Ribs are perfect!! The Greens are spot on!!! The Mac not the best, not the worst, a little on the liquidity side. Service is quick and the staff is friendly!! The ribs are huge and meaty!! read more

Great food for slightly less money than fast food. Would recommend to anyone visiting the area.

Great bbq! We've always been in for a late lunch so the place has been empty but the service and food have been on point. The brisket is always moist, ribs tender and my husband loves the collards. I enjoy their sauces and cornbread too. Wasn't a huge fan of the Brunswick stew but it is packed with meat and veggies, just a little sweet for my taste. We'll be back I'm sure. read more

Ribs were good Brisket, not so much..: For the price... which has gone up significantly... not very pleased... read more

First time eating from here on 9/1. This food is delicious! We had the ribs, wings, collards, potato salad, bake beans, macaroni, sausage link, pound cake and banana pudding. Everything was good!!! Excellent service!! read more

When we are outside NC, we like to see if other state BBQ establishments can live up to NC BBQ. Cousin's Brothers BBQ can. Brisket was moist , cut nicely, had awesome bark and a great flavor. Chopped Pork too was nice, moist not dry good flavor without having to add any sauce. Great BBQ doesnt require any additional sauce! Good job. Typically we get Turkey BBQ, but we gave their boneless chicken BBQ! Again, right on! We were very happy to find this BBQ gem! We will definitely be back. Thank you for great BBQ! read more

I ordered chopped beef sandwich with slaw, side of baked beans, sweet tea, and three slices of lemon pound cake. All of it was delicious. It reminded me of my grandmother's bbq from North Carolina. The sauce is perfect! Would highly recommend!!! read more

The Thompson Brothers sold to family; hence cousins and brothers. Same location off Cobb Parkway. Traditional Southern BBQ. Sides: get greens and mac-n- cheese. Definitely get the HOT BBQ sauce on the side. Small family, black owned restaurant. Service is average as it takes time to prepare a good meal and very reasonable price point. read more

Wow! This place catered an event at the last minute for us and they were so helpful and the food was amazing! We're from out of town and when a friend who is local showed up - he more than approved and I think was a little surprised that we'd found the best place to get bbq! The salmon was something we hadn't had with bbq before and it was sooo good - and we should have ordered more peach cobbler! Thank you so much!! read more
