    What happened, guys!? This is extremely rare. :( Almost black n blue.
    Brianne G.

    Next time I'll just get the brisket because that's been consistent since I've been coming here. But what happened to the tritip!? It used to be nicely cooked and this is just so rare it's almost uncooked. Next time i'll have to check to make sure I can eat my food cuz now I have to wait to cook it in a pan. I love this place but dude. I eat medium to medium rare so i'm not abhorrent to red meat but I won't eat this. No way. Cook it longer. A shame. Three stars cuz I LIKE this place. But i'm twice shy when it comes to inconsistency. :\ I'll be reluctant to buy the tritip again even though i've raved about it to so many people.

    Drummin Up BBQ catered our daughters wedding in Northern Idaho. The venue was a cattle ranch "White Barn Ranch" south of Sandpoint. The food was incredible! My husband has eaten at and competed with Drummin Up BBQ. He always raves about their food - visit them in Coeur d'Alene. I finally go to taste their food and totally agree. They were super easy to work with and pretty much took care of everything. They were very accommodating of guests with dietary restrictions. I highly recommend them!

    This huckleberry lemonade...... omg!!!! Bomb!

    I'm from California lived in Texas (H-Town) so I know my bbq. Different styles from the Midwest to the Californian backyard fall off the bone style food so I Came to check this place out after seeing the reviews and BOYYYYYYYYY!, I'm glad I did. By the first look of my beef brisket, I knew this place was a gem. I seen the smoker in the back the grill and I knew the chef was no games. The food was freshly grilled and the texture, taste, definitely on point. It was hard to choose what I wanted. I literally stared at the menu and the young girl there was laughing cause I kept choosing one thing, then I was like no no no... let me get, and then I finally decided lol. I'm here for a week so I'm going to be trying out different stuff. But I'm glad I don't live close by cause this would definitely be my hangout spot and I have no fiancé cause I would eat here every day. All they need is some peach cobbler and I'm set!! By the way the huckleberry lemonade...... I had to buy two cause I knew for a fact, I was going to finish that by the time I got to my destination. ohhhh I need the his bbq sauce. The sauce man....... omg..... let me stop with this review cause I can keep going.... Hahahaha

    Brisket Lovers Plate
    Joyce L.

    Incredible BBQ coming out of this tiny food stand. My favorite is the Brisket Lovers Plate - 12 oz. brisket, along with 2 sides (pepper jack mac n' cheese and baked beans for me) and Texas toast. The brisket is slow-cooked for up to 12 hours and always the first menu item to go for the day, so call ahead to have some set aside for you. Owner Daryl is clearly passionate about BBQ, and super nice to boot. On my first visit, I was debating between tri tip and brisket, and he walked me through his preparation for each, then offered complimentary samples to help me choose. I subsequently hit this place up twice in two days, and will definitely be back anytime I'm in the Coeur d'Alene area.

    Eating brisket in the near by park bench.

    Meat, beans and Cole slaw and corn bread were really good. Unfortunately the Mac and cheese was just ok. But nothing to sway us from returning if we're in the area. Especially for the price.

    Food Truck near Government and Apple Way in CDA Idaho, The Best BBQ around these parts!

    Clearly the best and most tender BBQ Brisket, Ribs and Chicken I've had in a long time. While it's just a food truck, this guy knows how to make amazing BBQ- great flavor and tender meats. Also his sauce is fantastic and I'd like to market it for him/ he's "too busy", and it's a major under taking. Open Tuesday-Saturday, this is clearly the best BBQ in the CDA area. I say this as a BBQ freak, that has lived in Texas and North Carolina. I have sampled great BBQ all over the country including Memphis famous Rendezvous, and Drummin' Up BBQ is better! Their Mac and Cheese, Beans and Slaw are fabulous too! Order a Pound or more of Brisket and a couple racks of ribs for your next party and you won't be disappointed! But call early and reserve or he may run out before you get there! Drummin' Up BBQ- The best BBQ in the CDA and Spokane area and beyond.

    Carolina pulled pork
    Bil M.

    The prices were cheap and the portions were large. After that, I went to the taste and it just wasn't there. I bought a Carolina pulled pork sandwich that tasted like it was boiled or made in an oven. It definitely didn't have a barbecue flavor from a truck like I was hoping for. It's completely possible I caught them on a bad day since I seem to be one of the only subpar reviews. I hope so, because I love food out of a truck!

    Traveled all over Texas looking for amazing brisket and we found it at Drummin Up! Lol! The coleslaw was AMAZING! Pepper jack Mac n cheese was fantastic too. We are blown away... Can't wait to eat here again!

    Bbq brisket sandwich with pepper jack mac and cheese $9.00. Incredible. Notice the beautiful smoke ring and the tenderness of the meat.
    Rosa W.

    This place is wonderful. We chose the brisket sandwich since brisket is a true test of someone's bbq skills. I have to say, it was awesome. It was perfectly tender, moist and melted in your mouth. I really appreciated the generous portion, and the pepper jack mac and cheese really added a nice creamyness. The bbq sauce was nicely balanced but the brisket didn't need it. However it did add a nice sweetness to the sandwich. In the picture you can see the tenderness of the meat and the beautiful smoke ring. Can you believe this was only $9.00? Incredible. We will be back again and again

    Do you know the Food Channel show "the best thing I've ever ate"? The Brisket sandwich, my mouth is watering as I'm writing this, It's that good. Tender goodness with awesome BBQ sauce and sides of cold slaw and/or potato salad both of which were fantastic. The worst thing about this place is that it's closed on the weekends. Can't wait until I'm in town again.

    See all
