Pulled pork bbq sandwich
Ken D.

My wife and I drove from Crossville, TN, back home to Dawsonville, GA. We planned to stop and eat along the way as we drove and were stopped at a traffic light on Highway 60 when we saw Dave's Spiced Right BBQ on the side of the road at the intersection of Highway 58. My wife looked up reviews on our Yelp app while we sat at the light and we decided to check this place out. It is a small, unassuming location that you could easily pass without noticing. I was watching traffic, and my wife noticed their sign with the slogan, "You Can Smell Our Butts For Miles." You walk inside to order at the counter and while it is a small area, it is moderately busy with people picking up orders they had called in. We were able to order quickly, but it took roughly ten minutes for our meals to be ready. Once we took our first bite, the time for them to prepare our meal was worth every minute. If you want to eat there, there are picnic tables on the front porch of the restaurant. There was no indoor seating or dining. We ordered the Pulled Pork BBQ Sandwich Regular and it came with a small side of Slaw and a serving container of BBQ Sauce. The sandwich bun was large and very fresh. It was covered with pulled pork that was smoked with just the right amount of flavor from the Hickory. The pork was some of the most tender, juicy pulled pork we have had across the country. The sauce was a sweet sauce with a little tang. It complimented the sandwich well without being overpowering. The slaw was excellent. We will stop here in the future on all of our trips through the area. Excellent food and service. If we are heading home, I will pick up a 1 lb takeout of pulled pork to take back home, it is that good.

Have a seat at the pew while awaiting your order!

Picked up dinner here while passing through southbound on 75. My wife and I both had the jumbo pork sandwich, black eyed peas, and banana pudding. The BBQ was good, but perhaps we should not have gotten the jumbo bun because there was surprisingly little meat on both of our sandwiches. I ended up discarding half the bun and folding the other side in half, which made for a better meat-to-bun proportion! I also would have been happier if the meat had been warm... but I suppose that wasn't since it was close to closing... I guess it's a good thing that it wasn't warmed in a microwave! The black eyed peas and pork was delicious... a real treat. And, the banana pudding was wonderfully light... perfect. We were there shortly before closing, and I was surprised to see how busy it was... they are take-out only, and obviously do a brisk business! Still, the wait was short, and the old church pew was a perfect bench to wait on.

This is exactly why I love Yelp! We found this spot on a road trip and wanted something local. Holy…read moreBBQ spot... this was a gem. We got several platters (chicken and pork) and various sides. Everything was so good and tasted like your family made it for you. Some standout items: the coleslaw is super finely chopped which gives it a really good texture, flavor is great. The potato salad was creamy and perfectly seasoned. The pork was so Smokey and tender. Their sauce is super great, would pour that on everything. The fried okra was so tasty, we ate every piece. They have so much cheese in the poppers, delicious. If you're passing through the East Ridge area of Chattanooga, I highly suggest checking out this awesome spot for great food at an even better price. Thanks for the great experience!

This is our first visit to Hickory, the owners are amazingly friendly. Our waitress was kind of…read moreneutral and acted like she didn't really want to be there. The food was good, but the major drawback is that a large plate only had four ribs, one of which you could barely call a rib. The second, drawback for me is that the ribs came with sauce already on them. That's like a major no-no in my book. I know, everybody has their preference, but I prefer to sauce my own food if I feel that it's necessary. To be honest, barbecue should stand on its own without sauce and sauce should only be there to enhance the flavor. The meat was tender, but I couldn't really get a feel for the flavor of the meat because the sauce interfered with that. The pulled pork plate was good. Also, my girlfriend said she enjoyed that. But again, sauce should come on the side in my opinion. I have no real complaint against this place, but I wish I had known ahead of time that the ribs came with sauce on them and I wish that I had known that there were only four ribs on the plate, I would've ordered a whole rack. Prices are good, the place is clean, and as I said, the owners are very welcoming and warm people. Give this place a go, it's worth a trip! But just ask questions before you order!

OVER RATED..... Don't arrive too hungry, you've gotta be ready to stand in a LONG line to get to…read morewhere the food is actually served. While you wait in the line, often much of the food becomes "sold out!" so definitely don't get your heart set on anything special you may want to order. I often want just a baked potato without any meat on it (just a simple baked potato) - but the youngsters running the place can't seem to sell me one without the meat! It's very frustrating honestly. Since I can't get my potato, I just order the mixed berry cobbler, which is outstanding but always fearful that it's not sold out by the time I get to the front of the line. The best thing about Smokin F BBQ is the ambiance of the live entertainment with both inside/outside seating, the longhorn cattle and the petting zoo.

Just have to say this as our friends that took us suggested we bring our boots. You just never know in July in TN! The young man that greeted us was very nice. It cost $2 per person to cover the guy singing and any soft drinks you want to drink. Coca-cola products! Got to love it! Anything else is BYOB. We got in line and figured out what we wanted to order after chatting with the couple in front of us and our friends. The young ladies at the serving "bar" explained the whole process. It's was all so good. Just need to go back to try everything else! One of the owners told my husband he liked his Detroit Red Wing's shirt! I thought they were from Texas but we will welcome more Red Wings fans! Honestly, you can't go wrong with any thing on their menu! Looking forward to our next dinner here!
