Chopped pork, fries, onion rings, stew, ribs
David L.

Great little place. Very down home. I got ribs and chopped pork. Just get the ribs. Did not like the stew but onion rings were great and they had good service. I would come again.

In town for a friends wedding and drove to Hancock's at my friends recommendation. I pulled in and the parking lot was packed, but I was able to get a booth immediately. They took my order and I did have to wait a little for the food, but the meat was all really tender and full of flavor. The was a bit of a vinegar style. I enjoyed the fried pickles and baked beans as well. The restaurant had a neat hunting theme. I would definitely eat here again if I'm ever in the area.

One of Selma's best BBQ restaurants! If your visiting you have to try Hancock's! Very much a local dive that's like stepping back in time. Great service and great BBQ! If you don't like BBQ their hamburger steak is phenomenal too!

Been eating at Hancock's for 30 years and it never disappoints. We love their sauce so much we buy extra and take it home for the kids.

Mainly vinegar based sauce, but the chopped pork was delicious.

If you're looking for the go-to BBQ spot in Selma, this is it. No question. This place delivers…read morethat authentic, Southern, mom-and-pop barbecue experience that you hope for when you're in Alabama. They cover most of the BBQ classics -- pork, chicken, ribs, burgers, and all the traditional Southern sides -- though no brisket here. Honestly? You won't even miss it. We ordered the 1/2 lb of BBQ pork plate with fried okra and corn nuggets (the plate comes with two sides, which is perfect). The pork was everything great barbecue should be: moist, smoky, tender, and packed with flavor. You could taste the care in every bite. It's the kind of meal that makes you slow down and savor it. The fried okra was crispy and seasoned just right, and the corn nuggets were golden little bites of happiness -- slightly sweet, crunchy outside, soft inside. A perfect pairing with the pork. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. They gladly offered suggestions for sides and made us feel like regulars even though it was our first visit. That kind of hospitality makes a big difference. Parking is right out front -- probably around eight spots -- and they do fill up quickly, especially at lunch. The restaurant was busy with mostly locals, which is always a great sign. The location is tucked away in a residential area, so definitely look up directions beforehand. There's a small street sign, but it's easy to miss if you're not paying attention. All in all, this spot has that genuine small-town BBQ charm with big-time flavor. If you're in Selma and craving real Southern barbecue, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!

We also added in some fried hot wings, which were crunchy and pleasantly spiced. On the side, we enjoyed the crispy slaw and sweet corn nuggets. Of course we washed it all down with some sweet tea. Man, I wish I could have those ribs for breakfast every day! Also, the folks at Lannie's were really nice.

Came here visiting from out of state to try Selma'a favorite BBQ spot. It was pretty underwhelming…read more I've gotten similar quality BBQ right here in Denver. Prices were fair and the staff were friendly. I found it quite odd that half the seats were coned off and not usable which wasn't the best look. Overall, I don't regret visiting, and it was a good one time visit.

I was staying in Selma for the night and searched up a good BBQ spot. Lannie's had top reviews and…read morestars. So I decided to check them out. I'm from Texas so I'm already critical of BBQ but I was in the South and the country the BBQ should be good right? NOT! From the moment you walked in you could tell it was a local spot. No greeting, you just get asked what do you want. I placed an order for 1/2 chicken with Mac & Cheese and beans. They had folding chairs to sit down because the dining area was blocked off from sitting. I paid, and sat down. I wasn't given a number or asked my name. After about 15-20 min I got up to see if my order was ready. There was a line by this time. The girl that took my order said "you got the 1/2 chicken right?" Oh here it is. It had been sitting there. She bagged it up, I asked for sauce and utensils. I got to the room and was starving. I looked at the chicken. Didn't notice any char like I'm used too. But I said maybe it will still taste good. I tasted the Mac and cheese. Needed salt. The beans were OK tasted like they came out of a can. The chicken was dry and didn't look cooked all the way as I got closer to the bone. The sauce was basically watery ketchup. I ate the roll and beans. The rest went in the trash and I ordered a pizza. Maybe I ordered the wrong meat, I know this was a miss for me.
