    The ribs were soft, sauce plain, sides balanced. Overall fine but not exciting, a fair three-star review.

    Our second time here in 3 weeks. Came up from Illinois. Totally worth it. Staff super nice. Food is 10/10.

    Brisket Sandwich
    Ethan D.

    Hands down best brisket sandwich I have ever had! They make their own BBQ sauces that are so delicious!! Some of the best smoked brisket and bbq sauce I've ever had. Cornbread was good! Mac and cheese was alright it needs some more flavor or breadcrumbs. 5/5 overall and really friendly service!!

    1/2 lb. Pulled Pork

    Not sure if they are making up random prices, but it is way more expensive than other bbq joints.

    Great bbq and service. The smoke on the pulled pork makes you feel like you're in a Texas bbq pit.

    If disappointment had a smell, it would be whatever's coming out of The Prized Pig. This place…read moresomehow turns barbecue, a cuisine built on patience, care, and flavor, into an expensive lesson in lowered expectations. The meat arrives dry, tired, and joyless, like it's been reheated emotionally as well as physically. Each bite feels less like a meal and more like an obligation. Smoke without flavor, seasoning without purpose, and textures that make you wonder if the kitchen has ever experienced moisture. The sauces don't enhance anything, they just sit there, confused, desperately trying to distract you from the fact that the food underneath is beyond saving. For the prices they charge, you'd expect something memorable. And it is memorable, just not in the way they're hoping. You'll remember how much you paid, how little you enjoyed it, and how fast you wished you'd gone literally anywhere else. This is the rare restaurant where you regret ordering while you're still chewing. The atmosphere tries to sell "rustic farm charm" but delivers "neglected barbecue joint that mistook vibes for effort." It's not cozy, it's not charming, and it certainly isn't worth planning a meal around. I wish I could give this place ZERO stars. The Prized Pig isn't just bad barbecue, it's aggressively mediocre, which somehow feels worse. If you value flavor, money, or happiness, do yourself a favor and keep driving. This is not a destination. It's a warning.

I got the ribs with fries and macaroni and cheese. The ribs came with a couple containers of bbq sauce and that sauce they make is so good it definitely made my ribs even better than they were. I think the price was about the same as other restaurants near by and the amount of food you get was a good amount I was pleased by it and so was my uncle. It looks very clean there and the wait staff was friendly.

    I came in to Smoking Fatty's with my family back in July for my birthday and ordered myself a pound…read moreof brisket--both lean and fatty cuts. I've been smoking meats myself for well over a decade, so I was honestly pretty disappointed by what I got. The brisket had clearly been rewarmed in some kind of liquid that tasted heavily of liquid smoke. There was no rendered fat or tallow on the surface--just a watery "broth" that left the meat bland. The bark was decent, but it got soft from sitting in the liquid. The flat wasn't tough, but definitely wasn't tender either. It needed more time on the smoker to break down the collagen. The real issue was with the point slices. What I got had nearly ¾ inch of solid fat left on it--should've been trimmed better--and it was sliced way too thin, thinner than a wood pencil. That cut should be served thick to showcase the richness, not shaved like deli meat. I'm not the type to normally complain to my waitress, but she cleared nearly half a pound of brisket off my plate without asking a single question, which surprised me. I know stuff happens and not every cook is perfect. But this was pretty bad for a bbq joint owned by a company with multiple restaurants here in Elkhart.
