Found them today at Sterling Street Brewery. They are such an efficient operation. Had the brisket again (of course), tried the new whole hog pork and the specialty sausage. Add the usually delicious sides and you must must must seek out Morawski! read more

Morawski Barbecue is a Texas-inspired barbecue food truck that began operations in Rutland, Massachusetts in May 2022. It was founded by husband and wife Andrew and Cherise Morawksi. After a bachelor party trip to Austin, Texas in 2017, Andrew developed a passion for smoking meat. The couple first began cooking their unique brand of 100% wood-smoked barbecue in March 2019 when they purchased a stick burner smoker. The two began preparing meals for family and friends during the pandemic. Not long after, they started a barbecue catering service with frequent pop-ups. By May of 2022, the Morawskis premiered their brand new mobile food trailer to the public. The menu consists of brisket, pulled pork, pork spare ribs, turkey breast, smoked meat sandwiches, loaded baked potatoes, mac & cheese, apple coleslaw, beans, dill potato salad, and cornbread. Morawski Barbecue can be spotted at various breweries, farms, and festivals throughout Worcester County. I recently sampled some of Morawski Barbecue's delicious food for the first time when I was visiting Tree House Brewing Company in Charlton. Morawksi Barbecue was one of three food trucks that was parked outside the brewery on the day of my visit. I hadn't had some good barbecue for quite some time, so I looked over their menu. I decided to go with "The Combo Sandwich" (brisket & pulled pork on a buttered toasted bulkie) with Spicy BBQ sauce and a side of "Mac & Cheese". Holy moly! I've actually had authentic Texas-style barbecue on trips to Austin, and the Morawskis' version was fantastic! I highly recommend their food! I really hope that I run into their trailer again. I think I'll order a loaded baked potato next time. read more

Imagine a food truck that is SO good that you want to follow it around. That is Morawski BBQ. I've only recently been inducted into the ways of their delicious truck, but I am already a loyalist. With multiple proteins and sides available, countless flavor combinations are possible. Many brick and mortar joints don't offer this kind of variety, but make sure you get to them early because it goes quickly! Friendly and fast service make them an even better choice amongst what seems to be an endless sea of food trucks nowadays where the staff make it seem like you're bothering them to place an order or like they've never even taken an order before. Most recently, I had the brisket sando and OMG was it perfect! The brisket itself was not over rubbed, over barked, or over cooked like so many other places I've had. It's so juicy and delicious that adding a sauce is almost an insult. I had the apple slaw as a side and ended up topping the sando with the slaw....to die for!! I even threw on a little blueberry bbq sauce to take it up a bit. Clearly experts in their craft, Morawski's is the real deal and I can't wait to get to them again soon!! read more

Morawski Barbecue - Brisket sandwich - Barbeque Near Me - Rutland, Massachusetts

My favorite BBQ food truck Morawski Barbecue popped up at Sterling Street Brewery. The girls & I went especially after seeing the specials! Everything was amazing as usual. The stars of the show this visit were the peach cobbler burnt ends, Blueberry maple, & jalapeño cheddar homemade sausage. In addition enjoyed a nice crisp beer with the ribs with maple mustard & blueberry BBQ sauces. All their side are delicious from the dill potato salad, to their creamy mac & cheese, and then the pinto beans & brisket. read more

Amazing bbq. Jalapeño sausage is crazy good. Get there EARLY as they run out if you don't.

I know what you're thinking Morawski's. why you so obsessed with me? and you're right. Since our first experience with you at Sterling Street Brewery, we may have engaged in some mild food truck stalking - following you to Lilac Hedge, the Botanist, Seven Saws, and back. But tonight you really took the cake. We saw the post to pre-order Thanksgiving items - and though we are making our own Thanksgiving Day meal, we thought - no one likes to cook the night before a holiday...and we will have family in town...smoked brisket shepherds pie? LFG. First - easy peasy ordering process and super fast pickup at a table next to the food truck so no waiting in line. Reheating instructions were very clear and easy. So now that we've finished our Thanksgiving Eve dinner - I can 1000% recommend this to everyone. I THINK it said this would feed six - I would say easily 8-10. Best $75 we've spent to eradicate the pre-holiday meal stress. I feel like in years past we have done pizza to keep it low maintenance - never again. This was better, easier, and will feed us AGAIN this weekend when we tire of leftover turkey. read more

I had Morawski's cater my work party at my house over the weekend! I ordered food for 30 people and got more food than we could consume! Everyone raved about how delicious it was and they were so easy to work with and accommodating! I cannot recommend them enough!!! Will FOR SURE be using them again!!! read more

This is some of the best BBQ food I have ever had. Their pulled pork and mac & cheese are absolutely amazing. The blueberry BBQ sauce is the perfect combination of sweet and savory. read more

Loved this Mac and cheese, even thought Im not a huge fan of Mac and Cheese I tried it and truly loved it! Will be going back with my friends and family. Never was a fan of BBQ but now I am. With gluten free options and so much to try it's truly an amazing thought through food truck. Thank you! read more

Incredible food - flavorful, fresh, and large portions. Will be following them around this summer.

I was absolutely prepared to be disappointed by Morawski. I moved to Massachusetts a decade ago from the south and tried all of the "best" places Massachusetts has to offer. Some of them are passable, a few are decent, most are actually just bad but with relatively strong reviews that have left me with a bad taste in my mouth (literally and figuratively) when it comes to great Yelp expectations. Given the sad state of affairs, I had resigned myself to barbecue tourism, saving it for trips to the south so as not to experience any more of the heartbreak smoked and served up on platters here. Y'all...Morawski lives up to the hype. The turkey and pork ribs are absolutely the best I've ever had. The brisket is good and (to my mind) only beaten by what I've had from Texas (Franklin, Blacks, etc.), which is an exceedingly high bar and those places don't have nearly the diversity in protein offerings that Morawski serves. The sides were legit excellent: Mac and cheese and cornbread were my favorites but the slaw and beans were also good. As a bonus, my one-year-old ate his weight in meats and sides. He's not a picky eater but he rarely goes in like he did today. The service was friendly and efficient. We got takeout and brought it home so I can't speak to the setting at the brewery, but the food was packed and traveled well. The only problem is now I'm addicted and have to follow them around the state every time I need another fix. At least I know it'll be worth the trip. read more

The best barbecue meals ever with fabulous pulled pork and Cole Slaw that if God made anything better he kept it for himself. Entire family devoured the meal and thoroughly enjoyed every bite. Can't wait to get more! read more

Delicious! Large portions, melt in your mouth brisket, creative sauces, awesome sausage varieties and the best pastrami I have ever eaten!

Once again I was fortunate to enjoy a fantastic lunch from Morawskis last weekend. The pulled pork/brisket/kielbasa sandwich was mouthwatering. Great setting at 7Saws in Holden. If you haven't tried them, hunt them down on their FB page https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063532331606&mibextid=LQQJ4d Enjoy! read more

First off, this BBQ Food Truck is frequently at the Seven Saws brewery on Industrial Ave in Holden (The Actual big brewery, not the little small one in the center of town) on weekends, but always check their Facebook page to make sure where they'll be, sometimes the Milk Room Brewery, sometimes other places, just check. I was Extermely excited to try these guys out as I had discovered them while they were on vacation but posting pictures off all these legendary BBQ joints they were traveling to in the south. Skylight Inn of NC, ZZQ of VA, Snows of TX, Martin's of Nashville, bunch of really great joints. So naturally I think these guys know what's up, gotta check them out ASAP. Alright, let's just dive into this. Brisket: Very tender, fell apart, sliced, very moist, a little too moist for me but still good. Very thin layer of a bark and it wasn't too crispy. Fat melted very easily but didn't have too much of a flavor to it. Traditional brisket flavor but I would have liked a more powerful smoke flavor. It was definitely smoked and very good, Worth noting the brisket was a bit on the "oily" side, meaning the greasy meat juices were right on the verge of going from liquid to oil like. Not always a bad thing, Ribs: Great pork flavor and a good amount of rub. Pretty sure the rub on these ribs was also just salt and pepper, fine by me. Although I have come to really like a nice red spice rib rub, like with cinnamon or paprika and a hint of brown sugar or maple sugar. Very tender as well and smoked well enough that the meat didn't fall right off the bone. This particular cut of ribs I got had quite a bit of fat on them but I guess that's what you sign up for when you get spare ribs. Again, a little oily, still juicy and tender. And again, not quite as smokey flavor as I would have liked. Smoked Chicken: I haven't had chicken this juicy in awhile. This is the style where the skin practically becomes an inedible bag around the meet and it creates a crazy steam sauna inside. Once the skin is punctured you will likely end up with about 4oz of chicken juice. And yet somehow the meat is still moist. Good texture, good flavor, again not quite as smokey and still got that oily sensation. The skin really is inedible, it's like trying to eat a crispy dollar bill with some salt and pepper on it. Oh and it comes with this "triple pepper sauce" that looks almost like a peppery yellow broth mustard sauce. It is HOT! Texas Twinkies: There is only a few places in New England that I've seen make these and they always sell out very quickly. So this is the first official one I've had. Cream Cheese stuffed Jalapeños wrapped in bacon and smoked! I'll say this much ... you really gotta love Cream Cheese and Jalapeños and Bacon, I wasn't ready for that explosion of three completely opposite flavors and textures at the same time! But I can see why most people love them. Corn Bread: Extra Good! Baked in little individual squares so they have a nice buttery edge all over them. Looked like they put a scoop of butter on top before they had a chance to cool down and the top caved in a bit but I think it made them even better. Great texture, great flavor, excellent corn bread. Mac and Cheese: Shell pasta, white cheddar style rue, not baked, stringy but mostly gooey, interesting flavor, not as much white cheddar sharpness as you might be expecting. Texas Pinto Beans: This stuff is more like baked beef muck with some beans in it. We're talking a crazy amount of beefy mud with a little bit of chili powder. This constitutes more as a chili than anything else. Too much for me. Apple Slaw: Delightful, typical cabbage and slaw dressing but with some cut up apples. Helps to balance out the smokey and meaty overload. Dill Potato Salad: Not too bad. Perfect texture for the potatoes, dill looked very fresh but didn't pack too much of a dill flavor. And the ratio between potato chunks and that mushed up mustard potato mash was way off. Felt more like I was eating a mustardy cold mashed potatoes ... which isn't awful. They had 3 types of sauces. Their regular sauce was unique. It tasted like it was tomato based a little bit and then mixed with apple cider vinegar as most sauces are. The spices they use remind me of the stuff you'd put on vegan food to make it taste like beef. A Blueberry BBQ that looked a lot like Jam. But it's definitely a BBQ sauce. I've tried maybe one or 2 blueberry bbq sauces but this one was legit. Best one yet Then their Maple Mustard sauce. Almost as yellow as a yellow mustard and had some mustard seeds in it. At first taste I was going to say it's just yellow mustard. Tried it a few times and I did start picking up on the hints of something sweet in there but not much. Seeds were kind fun but didn't add any flavor. All in all I think this is a great BBQ truck. They clearly have a great passion for this stuff and their food is a bit unique and good quality! read more

Nice folks, quick service, GOOD BBQ! Honestly I think this is the best brisket I've had in at least a decade. Some brisket fell out of my sandwich, I took a fork to it and it absolutely melted instantly. Good savory food. I went back to the truck for more twice and I'm not even all that fat, it was just that good. They make their own sauces (of course!), and the spicy one was nice. Had a little kick to it without burning my face off. What I call "New England spicy". Gonna find this truck to try more items again. Note, they no longer do the portabello. Which would've been delicious I'm sure. read more

Consistently delicious food. Everything is top notch. We have had most everything on their menu and follow them whenever we can. read more

Consistently delicious barbecue served with friendly service by a wonderful hard working local family.

They are a family run business, the nicest, friendliest people and they are always the first to offer their services to local businesses and events. I will show up to an event I have no interest in just to be in line for their food truck. Truly the best food I have ever tasted. read more
