Carolina bar b Q chicken wings and waffle fries - A takeout meal includes glazed barbecue chicken wings, waffle fries, and two dipping sauces in small plastic cups. The chicken wings are coated in a dark, glossy sauce, and the waffle fries are golden and crispy. The sauces appear to be a mustard-based and a barbecue or ketchup sauce. The food is presented in a black container lined with aluminum foil, with the sauces placed in the lid of the container. The setting suggests a casual dining or takeout experience.

Love this food truck the friendly staff with their great suggestions and the food is remarkably...chicken wings and waffle fries both have great flavors

Smoked wings--they were great

This wasn't my first visit to Ray Ray's Food Truck at Land Grant, so I'm basing this review on a collection of visits. Ray Ray's is the best BBQ in Columbus, hands down. From the Clintonville store to the food truck at Land Grant, Ray Ray's provides quality meats with great service. Unfortunately, this trip wasn't one of the good ones. We visited on a Wednesday when Land Grant opened at 3:00. We weren't aware Ray Ray's didn't open to 4:00, so we enjoyed a couple of beers while we waited. See my Land Grant review for more info on the best brewery in C-Bus. My buddy and I typically order the Meat Sweats when we eat at Ray Ray's, so we can sample as many meats as possible. Ray Ray's didn't have ribs or sausage ready, so we just ordered a pound of brisket and some chicken wings. This was the worst brisket I've ever had from a BBQ restaurant. Again, that's not the norm for Ray Ray's, so they still get a strong rating because I know how good it usually is. The brisket was dry and hard in many spots. We did get a few pieces of the point, which was fattier and very tasty. We just got too much of the bad brisket to give this the usual 5-star rating I'd give Ray Ray's. We did enjoy the wings. They were crispy and well-seasoned. All in all, it wasn't a great trip to Ray Ray's, but don't let this one visit stop you from trying the best BBQ in Columbus. Ray Ray's is fantastic.

Pulled pork and macaroni and cheese - A burger with a toasted bun topped with sesame and black seeds, served in a black takeout container. The burger appears to contain meat and toppings, with a side of macaroni and cheese in a small white bowl. The container is placed on a wooden surface, and part of a glass is visible in the background.

The aroma that comes from this food truck as you enter Land Grant always sucks us in. Probably why we end up ordering from here almost every time we visit. The sandwiches are a great size and we usually get a side to share like Mac and cheese. Well made, hot and delicious!

I had pleasure of gettin this today at margarita fest an let me say I was highly dissappointed some of the driest bbq ive ever had in my life an the sides were trash greens an mac horrible!!

Brisket Poutine
Demetrius B.

Seriously some of the best meats I've had, and I've had A LOT of BBQ/grilled/smoked meats! There is a tenderness and flavor in Ray Ray's offerings that are second to none, and those traits came through with flying colors in their special Brisket Poutine. Even though the Poutine won't be around forever, their Meatsweats dish will be, and you would be well served to indulge in it.

Was in the area and decided we had the taste for BBQ. We stopped at Smoked on High but they were closed until January 4th. Yelped and found Ray Ray's 6 minutes away. Looked festive driving by so we decided to stop. Parking sucks. Had to go around the block 4 times before finding a spot 2 blocks away. Ordered the brisket sandwich, waffle fries and Mac n cheese. Also grabbed a side of pickled onions (nice touch!). The Brisket portion was generous and had just the right amount of smoke, mustard bbq sauce and juiciness. Waffle fries were abundant and again the right combo of seasoning and crunch without being greasy. The Mac n cheese was awesome!! Super cheesy and honestly I got the small size and glad I did because I was completely stuffed with all the food they give you. Definitely no complaints in the portion sizes. The brewery was what you would expect from a brewery, minus the surprising amount of children there with parents (no judging, just noticing). Great choice of craft brews at a reasonable price. We had to try the CBD Mule which was listed at 10% alcohol, but had us waiting for the "hit" which never came. I would pass on that one in the future. All in all it was a great first visit with the food being the most notable part.

Pulled pork, Mac and cheese, waffle fries

Best BBQ in Columbus IMO. This location is prime and BBQ pairs perfectly with beer. The staff is always so nice. The server asked if my dog wanted a PUP CUP - and he gave my little boy a small cup full of meat The nicest thing ever. Over last summer - I've eaten my way through this whole menu. My favorite is the pulled pork sammi - the pulled pork sandwich is high quality and smoked to perfection, the sweet bbq is amazing but I recommend the habanero BBQ on the side or on top of. I also recommend the rib tips ($11 per lb) and not on the online menu. I always get the fries & Mac and cheese. Both a staple. The fry sauce is spicy and savory and the waffle fries are delish. The mac & cheese is so cheesy and perfectly spiced.

Meatsweats

Great food and fast service! Everything was cooked perfectly and the sauces/rubs had great flavor. The smoked chicken wings were a special, highly recommended getting them if you see them on the menu!

Today we decided to try Ray Ray's for the first time. It's our 26yr Anniversary and I told the very friendly gentleman who took my order just in general conversation and after wishing us a Happier Anniversary, he gave us each a free banana pudding! How thoughtful We ordered the "Meat Sweats" which was an array of all the meats they offer and it was excellent! The pulled pork was on point and juicy, the ribs were succulent and falling off the bone, the brisket was so tender it was sliced to perfection! My husband enjoyed the blend seasonings in the jerk, chicken and the hot links were delicious! We had the collard greens and they sure know their stuff in the kitchen! Anytime we are in Columbus, we will Definitely be back to Ray Ray's Hog Pit! Thanks for a great experience with exquisite food!

Ray Ray's food truck was next to the Land Grant Brewing company. When my friends and aunt were hanging out at Land Grant, we also ordered some food from Ray Ray's. You can either wait in line to order or directly order from the online system (just make sure to order from the right location). I got some sausage and brisket. Both of them were delicious. They were juicy and flavorful. I liked the sauce too. The waffle fries were crispy and well seasoned!

The meat sweats
Kaoru M.

Ray Ray's is probably the best BBQ in Columbus. Being indecisive, I couldn't decide which meat I wanted... so I ordered The Meat Sweats and tried them all! I usually like the pulled pork & briskets, and these were definitely great. But their chicken was really amazing. I previously called the smoked chicken wings at Old Skool the best non-fried chicken in Columbus, but Ray Ray's has now dethroned Old Skool in my mind. We also had their pork rinds and waffle fries, which were also excellent. Only caveat I would give is that although their waffle fries are on the menu as "1/2 pound" and "1 pound" and sound like a ton of fries... they're not actually a lot. What appears to be a side of waffle fries that people get with their sandwiches here corresponds to the "1/2 pound" order. This particular location at Land Grant Brewing really helps kick things up a notch at Land Grant. I'd call it a match made in heaven!

This a meal right here: half ribs, 1lb fries, pork rinds

See all

This is some very yummy food. Small business big taste…read more You could almost miss it driving by. It's a little back from the street, a little closed down for winter. You walk in the door and it smells just like heaven if heaven was an amazing barbecue place. Keep walking forward and you can enjoy the historic walls and wood floors and when you get to the counter, they know all the stuff. You can try your stuff, but if you need some advice, they got some good ones. We got a sampler, drums, and a brisket sandwich. They have some delicious barbecue options from spicy to very velvet, smooth and sweet to the Kansas City mustard style. The people were friendly they were efficient. They got us exactly what we ordered, the service was great. The price wasn't too bad either Certainly willing to return here. This is some yummy stuff.

This excellent BBQ restaurant is located in the German village area of Columbus, Ohio…read more The portions are substantial. I visited with a friend for lunch, purchased the recommended selection, and we sat down to eat. and boy did we eat! But, despite my best efforts, I was not able to vanquish all the food that was on my plate. Wow. I placed all the leftovers in it to go box and it made two meals for later, I was quite surprised. The food here is delicious and I found it to be quite the bargain. Definitely coming back for more. There are lots of barbecue restaurants in Columbus, but Smoked On High truly stands out as exceptional.

Secondary no greens and green beans are both made with pork. Wings (extra dry rub seasoning)- 3/5 cooked good, but we requested well done. Flavor just okay. Burnt ends- 2/5 not burnt at all.
