    Street corn, Mac n cheese, sweet potato crunch, jalapeño cheddar sausage, ribs, and brisket
    Andrew J.

    Incredible bbq, friendly services, and ambiance you are looking for in a bbq joint. Dine here weekly and highly recommend!

    wow! One of my buddies loves barbecue more than anything. He goes on trips around the country just to try barbecue. He recommended this is a semi-local place that I had to try. He said it was the best brisket Easter, Texas. He was not wrong! I came here with three of my kids. The service was phenomenal! But the food even outside the great service. The brisket was phenomenal, but the ribs weren't far behind. The sides were really good. We got mac & cheese, straight corn salad, sweet potato crunch, and the hash brown casserole. Everything was phenomenal! This is by far one of the best BBQ places I have ever eaten at! I can't wake to come back.

    Brisket, white Mac and cheese and street corn salad.

    This place really is the whole package. Their staff is just amazing. Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The cooks are top level talent. The food is elite. Brisket is the best outside of Texas. Most importantly the sides are homemade by actually talented cooks and not store bought. It's a fun family friendly atmosphere and experience that will ruin you for all other BBQ options in the area.

    My parents drove up from Conway, SC and wanted some good food. The food was DELICIOUS!! Everyone was very friendly, we will definitely be back.

    BBQ Brisket

    Went there for the best brisket money can buy. Their brisket was a little dry. Kinda disappointed with the brisket. May have been out of the wrap too long. The sausage was wonderful. The hashbrown cheesy casserole was awesome! And how do they cook the collards? Best I've ever had. It was a good experience but not outstanding. Lewis is still the best, but it's in Greenville. Recommend you give it a try.

    Back at our favorite new barbecue restaurant in SC, while visiting the grandchildren. The best flavor, taste and tender barbecue mix that I had . The cowpoke platter is what we get as a family of 4 each time. Unfortunately they sold out of the burnt ends again .

    So excited for a nice drive to Fork Grove BBQ - a feature on the SC BBQ Trail. A delightful "farm table" decor, very clean and roomy inside with outdoor seating as well. Lots of outdoor games to bide your time as well Fabulous BBQ. The pink smoke ring was definitely present on the sliced brisket and ribs. Both were tender, juicy with a substantial bark. Nice smoke flavor without being too Smokey. The jalapeño link had a nice bite but not too much. Same with the Thai spiced pork belly burnt ends. I guess you could say everything was cooked perfectly with a beautiful restraint of having the smoke take over. Enjoyed 3 of their delicious sides. And really enjoyed the addition of pickles and pickled onions that bright a bit of acidity to the table. What a wonderful new fixture in Anderson !!

    Come early and come hungry. They do sell out, but it's for a great reason. Every time we come, we notice a lot of people get their sandwiches, however we love to come as a big group and get a sample of everything. The burnt ends is always our favorite and don't sleep on the turkey. The baked beans always seem to be our favorite side dish in addition to the sweet potato crunch. Best BBQ in Anderson. It's Texas style and blows Carolina BBQ out of the water.

    Pint of street corn

    This was the best barbecue I ever had! Everything was delicious from the brisket down to the sausages. Besides the sterile, cafeteria style seating, and they didn't give me any pickles or pickled onions and by the time I remembered seeing them in a photo, I was almost done with my meal. This was disappointing because all the while eating, all I could think was "some acid would be great to cut through this fat". However, the delicious meats and fair pricing more than made up for all that. The brisket was fatty and delicious, the pork ribs were nicely smoked and rendered, the sausages had a wonderful snap to the skin, and the pork belly burnt ends were to die for. The mac & cheese was delicious, the street corn wasn't bad, and the sweet potatoes were pretty good. The only thing missing on this menu was collard greens for me. If I'm ever in the area, I'll definitely be back again!

    This is the Cowpoke platter and it was plenty for a family of four. We picked at it for days!

There is so much space in the front with cornhole boards or just to hang out. When we walked In I could tell this was going to be amazing BBQ. Writing on the walls and chairs, menus board hanging on the wall and daily specials written on chalk boards. Or orders were quickly taken by a very efficient hostess the. We grabbed a seat. I ordered brisket and pork with collards and cobbler. My wife ordered the same with the grits and my son had the side of Mac and cheese with his brisket. The brisket slices were think and it was really well cooked. The pork was awesome but the sides were out of this world. Every single one of them was perfect. There were four BBQ sauces to choose from, Eastern NC style, hot, mild and mustard. I am not a huge fan of mustard BBQ (I'm from NC, IYKYK) but I'll say this was the best I had. The hot was my favorite and it had just the right amount of heat. For those that may be concerned about the description of the writing on the walls and divey spot don't be. The place was clean and very nice. The health rating was great and it was a really nice place.

Expect a little bit of a wait but they have outdoor cornhole games and putt-putt while you wait. I'm not the biggest fan of brisket when visiting BBQ restaurants but theirs is amazing and I highly recommend it! I learned the hard way on my first visit and my son allowed me to try some of his. The sides are very simple but they compliment the BBQ. Fried okra was fresh and cooked to perfection. The jalapeño cheese grits are unbelievable and a must try! Service was a group effort by several waitresses who took good care of us. If you ever near Clemson, I would definitely make this a stop.

    Overall, the best BBQ in 3 states! I have literally planned vacations around BBQ restaurants in…read moreSC, NC, and GA. I felt pretty dumb when I found the best one right here in Anderson, SC! It isn't just that their BBQ Ribs, Pork, and Chicken are the best around, it is that they do everything else better as well! Ribs: dry or wet, they are spectacular. I prefer the dry just because they aren't as messy and let the flavor of the meat shine, but found the wet ribs freeze and thaw better (and still were some of the best ribs ever!). Chopped Pork: so flavorful and juicy. No sauce needed. Brunswick Stew: the best I've ever had. I drank a quart of it straight from the styrofoam cup. That's why I bought 2 quarts... I bought this entire meal to go, froze the leftovers for 2 weeks, thawed them, and just had a BBQ feast that noone else could touch! Now, on to the appetizers - their potato crisps, nacho chips, and cheese sticks are ridiculous. The portions are over-the-top, and they taste better than anywhere else. Italian and Mexican restaurants have nothing on these! Then you get to the fish and shrimp. Surely a BBQ restaurant can't do seafood well, right? Sadly for the local seafood places...Creekside does it better again! You will never have a tastier piece of fried catfish or shrimp than right here. And that is coming from me after a 20 minute drive home - if I ate it at the restaurant, I'm not sure I could stand it. Everything I've gotten at Creekside has been well above my expectations, no matter how many times I go. This includes their great customer service, as well. I will admit, I've never tried any dessert or anything "green" here, as the BBQ, sides, and seafood are just so good I don't want to waste room on sweets or veggies. If I want a dessert, I'll pour a little bit of their sweet BBQ sauce on a piece of brisket, and the Brunswick Stew has tomatoes, corn, and onions - all the veggies I'll ever need! Seriously though, every other BBQ restaurant I go to makes me wish I had just gone to Creekside instead - you won't find better, I guarantee!
