The place is veteran owned and has been in business for a while! All the choices on the menu are mouth watering good! After serious consideration we settled on sharing the Trinity platter which came with brisket, spare ribs and sausage links. We opted out of the sausage and upgraded the platter with pastrami. The Texas Trinity platter also comes with choices of pickles, one small sized side, we had Mac and Cheese, and 2 rolls. The portions were satisfying and good to share. The meats, oh my! All were smoked and cooked to perfection! Moist, juicy, and tender! Even better, they were seasoned so well there is no need for the also perfect sauces they offer! What an amazing experience at Red White n Que Smoke House! From the friendly and attentive service to their amazing smoked meats! All was top notch real at this place! Check it out, it will not dissapoint!

Loco Moco (Island Grill) - The grilled beef patty was terrible and dry even with the sauce it still did not help. The fried eggs, one of the eggs, were overcooked where the yolk cooked fully, and the other one was fine sunnyside up. Pork Katsu & Kalbi Short Ribs with Curry Sauce (Island Combo) - Short Ribs were overdone and tasted burnt. Like, not a BBQ tastes like a burnt taste. Pork Katsu was overcooked and dry. When you bite it, it is ready hard, like biting a rock. Plus, that Pork Katsu wasn't even a Pork Katsu. It's like a really thin slice of pork dipped in panko batter. It doesn't even match with the picture. (Japanese restaurants make better Pork Katsu). The curry sauce was at a different level. You can see the sauce sink to the bottom and water floating to the top. I think it was like a water down sauce that they tried to make it last without throwing it away. Overall, the meals, taking a quote from Bob's Burgers, as Bob Belcher says, "Overdone and Dry." Plus, it was missing Macaroni Salad. Even though their website says the Island Grill and Combo include 2 Scoops of Rice, 1 Scoop of Macaroni Salad on a Bed of Cabbage. Will never be coming back here to order food.

The menu had mostly Hawaiian options to choose from. The pricing was very reasonable as well. I had the customizable poke bowl ($15.95). There was a number of different options to choose from with different proteins, toppings, sauces, etc. I had a base of brown rice with avocado, cucumber, sweet corn, edamame, mango, ahi tuna, spicy mayo, ginger, wasabi, jalapeno, green onion, and cilantro. This was nicely done. Everything appeared fresh and it was a good size portion. I would have just liked to seen a little more ahi tuna present, but besides that, very pleasant and filling. I also had the spam musubi ($2.95) and a side of macaroni salad ($3.95). The musubi was okay. It was a little dry. There needed to be more sauce present. The macaroni salad was a heaping portion, and it was tasty. There looked like a lot of mayonnaise present, but it was not too overpowerful as some type of sugar seemed to be incorporated to balance it out. Regardless of what it was, the salad was flavorful. Will I go back? I would.

We were greeted when we walked in by the young man behind the counter as we were getting the young ones settled. It was a simple vibe inside with long bench seats and huge tables. Ordering was easy, we got the boss family combo and a half pound of the pastrami (my favorite). The food was out quick, the service was great and they checked on us multiple times to make sure everything was good. The food was great, not too Smokey (like liquid smoke), and the different BBQ side options were excellent. The Mac n Cheese was some of the best I've ever had out. My kids enjoyed the meat and sides alike. I would recommend this to anyone who wants high quality BBQ right here in NJ. Service was great, they really took care of us, and the food was excellent. 5/5 stars!

He deserves a raise/bonus for sure I ordered a catfish dinner and oxtail but they were out of oxtail. I got fried honey bbq salmon instead. Catfish and collard greens was yummy, mac n cheese was so cheesy you really didn't get too much noodle. It was pretty overwhelming so I couldn't eat it. The 2 orders of wings I got were plain and spicy. They were pre cooked frozen wings so I wasn't too keen on them considering this is a soul food restaurant. Hopefully they can do better next time. I wouldn't be opposed to trying it.

I've also had the pork belly, ribs, and tri tip which are also good, but the brisket is the best - hands down! The pork belly and ribs are delicious and smoky. The tri tip is super flavorful, but half of my tri tip pieces were hard to chew and the other pieces were super tender so I'd say it's the luck of the draw depending on which cut of it you get. I also love their mac + cheese and beans + brisket as sides. Since Big Pink's is a food truck, there's limited seating (only 1 picnic table) but we live so close by that we've just taken it to go and eaten it at home! The employees are super nice. After you order, they let you sit in the car to wait and bring it right to you :) This is definitely a new go-to spot for my husband and me!!

The walls are mixed with aged eclectic landscape art, and world's flags mantled on the walls. I couldn't sort my belonging whether I was on the coast of south europe, or at a sports bar. The service here is amazing! I originally wanted pork skewers, but the server said that it would take ~40 min to prepare. We were on a time crunch, therefore we ordered Portuguese style bbq chicken with a side of beans, potatoes, and a large serving of rice to share. The chicken was okay, it wasn't as juicy as I would have liked it to be, nor did it have much flavour except salt. The beans tasted metal like as if they were straight out of a can, and the rice wasn't very good at all. The yellow rice smelled good but had no flavour, and it wasn't fully cooked. It makes me wonder if they use instant rice. Maybe it's all matter of preference, because others seem to enjoy the food. The joint smells great from outside, but I don't think I'm curious enough to try the rest of the menu. The servers deserve 5 stars!

The staff is very friendly and they all were working very hard to get everyone's orders ready. The staff is very nice. I placed my order to go for (2) half orders of BBQ Chicken Combo. A 1/2 order comes with a half a chicken cut up into 4 pieces of bbq chicken, a choice of yellow rice, black or red beans, fries, or salad. They also serve several different types of homemade Empanadas, Yuca, and Fried Bananas. This is not a big place. There are a couple of tables and a few counter seats. I saw in their refrigerator they have ready to go desserts. I added 2 Flans to go with my order. When I got home I was really surprised. They didn't skimp on our orders. They gave me 1/2 a chicken cut up into 4 nice pieces of chicken which was juicy with a side of hot sauce and a side of their bbq sauce. Both sauces were good. I also got an abundance of delicious yellow rice with some veggies in it. I chose black beans which came in a separate container. I enjoyed everything and so did my boyfriend. For dessert we each got a flan. I was truly surprised. My flan was super creamy, it had lots of caramel sauce on the bottom. The flan was so very good I couldn't stop eating it. I highly recommend trying their dessert.They also sell Tres Leche Cake,Rice Pudding, Oreo Cake,Tiramisu, Cheese Cake, Carrot Cake, and Red Velvet Cake. Dunellen BBQ offers an extensive menu. They offer chicken, steak, and seafood along with kebabs and sandwiches. There is a free parking lot next door. It's small bc they share it. There's also some street parking.

We stopped in as a party of 2 on a Wednesday evening and there were only 2 other tables when we arrived, but nearly every table was full by the time we left. They also offer outdoor seating as well. Our server let us know that everything except the ketchup and mayo is made in house, which is great. A small basket of chips and salsa were dropped off quickly, but we had to ask for water more than once before it was dropped to the table. The salsa was quite good and we would have got some more chips, but a refill is $4 and the portion size didn't feel worth it to us. We decided on the avocado tacos since sadly they were out of the coconut shrimp tacos we originally wanted. We had a pulled pork sandwich and salmon entree for our mains, which we both liked. I had Mac and cheese on the side, which wasn't something I would order again, but the fries were good. There are 4 different house sauces to try and I found the Honey Chipotle to be my favorite.
