Delicious and very generous servings of BBQ ribs and sides. I ordered a large cabbage side as well and wished I'd ordered two! Tried the regular bbq and the jerk (she warned me it was spicy) and loved both! Be warned that jerk is spicy, but not burn your head off spicy. Tender ribs with enough bite to add texture. Nice beans and rice sides. Very fun and funny service by the woman who ran the truck. Nice to have charming service with great food. read more

Worth the drive from Wailuku to Kihei. We found the Sol Brothers BBQ truck for some Southern-style barbecue, and I think this might be my new favorite style of BBQ. I had the ribs, hubby had the brisket. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone delicious. I could pull the meat apart with a spoon, no knife needed. The brisket was just as tender, smoky with a beautiful bark. Both plates come with rice and sides, so it's a filling meal. The owners are super friendly, and you can tell they take real pride in their food. If you're on Maui and craving authentic Southern BBQ, make the drive. You won't regret it. read more

Have you ever found yourself in the middle of a food truck court... lost and unable to make a decision on what truck to eat at? You stare, you look left, then you look right, then left again. You haven't made any progress. Hours have passed. You start to pray. You ask for a sign to help guide your decision. Then, an angel shows up when you need one most. Welcome to my experience with Sol Brothers BBQ food truck. My brothers and I found ourselves hungry and indecisive at the Maui Food Truck of Kihei . There were so many food trucks it was hard to decide. We walked in circles for what seemed like hours. Then we noticed a man, unbothered by BBQ sauce smeared all over his cheeks and upper lip, walking confidently to Sol Brothers Southern BBQ food truck. The next thing he said changed our lives forever. He told the man inside the window "this is quite possibly best BBQ I've ever had. And easily the best ribs and brisket I've ever had. And I'm a bodybuilder, so I would know". Sometimes the universe buries strange jewels deep within us all, and then stands back to see if we can find them. Thank you bodybuilder man for guiding me with your light when I was at my lowest and needing inspiration. anyways ... The food was as advertised. It was truly delicious. We ordered the baby back ribs sandwich, the jerk chicken sandwich, a plate of ribs, and a side of Mac n cheese. I would have to agree it was some of the best BBQ I've ever had. The ribs were fall off the bone The jerk chicken had a delayed kick of spice with excellent flavor. The Mac n cheese... Yup! Delicious! And best for all, the people working the truck are great people. We loved chopping it up with them while we waited for our food 100/10 food and experience! This was by far the best food truck in the food truck court. read more

Excellent food, and great people. We got the rib plate and the jerk chicken bowl. Ribs were tender and smoked to perfection. The jerk chicken was spot on. The jerk sauce maybe the best we've had. read more

Excellent! We were driving back from Wailea and decided to stop at food trucks. We chose Sol Brothers, and it was the right choice. We had the ribs, brisket, Mac n cheese, & beans. Food was phenomenal. Service from Sonia was awesome. The food was extremely hot/fresh when served. Nice portions! It was a tad windy outside while eating but we can't control Mother Nature. read more

Kihei, Maui - Sol Brothers BBQ If you're looking for legit, real Southern BBQ, look no further than Sol Brothers. This place is the real deal--all the savory, smoky flavors are on point, and you can taste the care in every bite. Shona took great care of us, and the service was just as good as the food. If you like it spicy (like Shona!), make sure to ask for the hot sauce. Highly recommended. Jordan read more

I was at the Maui Food Trucks of Kihei lot and although we had already ordered dinner, we couldn't pass up the chance to try a new food truck. There's a number of other trucks on the lot, but the smell of smoked meats made it impossible not to stop at Sol Brothers BBQ. Their menu covers all the bases--slow-smoked brisket, pulled pork, jerk chicken, hearty sandwiches, and classic Southern sides. We ordered the brisket plate, and it was seriously loaded. The brisket came sliced thick with just the right amount of smoky bark and was tender enough to pull apart with a fork. Flavor-wise, it was rich and deeply smoky without being overpowering. On the side, the mac n' cheese was creamy and indulgent with that homestyle comfort food feel, while the BBQ beans were bold, slightly spicy, and had just the right touch of sweetness. Portion sizes were generous too--we could have easily shared and still left full. What makes Sol Brothers extra special is that it's a family-owned truck bringing a taste of Alabama BBQ all the way to Maui. The family's warmth shows through not only in the food, but in the service too. It's Southern hospitality with island vibes, and was a great spot to grab a bite. If you find yourself in Kihei, this spot is a must-try. Just come with an appetite, because the plates don't hold back. read more

Is there room for 11 stars? This simple establishment serves the best BBQ I have ever had -- and our entire party of 4 agreed. An absolutely perfect balance of sweetness, smoke, a bit of heat, cooked to juicy succulent nirvana. I've had a lot of BBQ in my time -- in Austin, Kansas City, hipster Brooklyn, Copenhagen's awesome Warpigs, San Francisco's legendary Leon's and my Bay Area lifeline, Oaktown's Everett & Jones. I'm not kidding: Sol Brothers was the best. read more

Great BBQ, I asked the lady at the window if she had to pick one bowl to recommend if this was the only time I was going to come here, and you could tell she was passionate about the food. It took her probably two minutes to tell me to go w the beef rib bowl w a side of jerk sauce in the side. GREAT CHOICE! Im definitely coming back. read more

I'm not use to food trucks serving such amazing food and was pleasantly surprised. We split the ribs, rice, salad and a small mac-n- cheese for dinner. The rib sauce had a nice balance of both smoky and sweet which balanced nicely with the salad dressing. The ribs were very tender and fell off the bone. The mac-n-cheese was very creamy and had a little hint of spice to it. We indulged in ribs at the Best in the West Nugget Rib Cook- Off in Northern Nevada and this place could easily be a perfect contender. The cashier was also vey friendly and personable and the food came out quickly. read more

If you want BBQ this should be your go too! The owners start smoking/cooking the meet at 4 in the morning, and the results are incredible. The brisket is mouthwatering, perfectly tender and full of flavor! Their ribs fall off the bone and are finger licking good. The Jerked Chicken is moist and has an awesome kick to it; I'm sweating just thinking about it. As for the sides, you gotta go for the steamed cabbage, it's positively dripping with umami! It's always my go to side when I order. The fried rice is also great when it's available (sells out fast). The owners are super friendly, you can often see the husband out next to the grill and he is always happy to strike up a conversation while you wait for your food. Super friendly! read more

This food truck is in such a cute food truck patio! As soon as we walked up, we were greeted with the warmest smile. The gal taking our order absolutely made my day! We ordered the brisket sandwich and ribs, and let me tell you the flavor and tenderness of the meat were completely on point. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend! Thank you for the great food, good laughs, and for making my day a little brighter! read more

I feel so bad leaving a bad review but the brisket was tough. The beans and mac n cheese was good but the brisket was not. And it took forever to get our order. The lady that took the order was very nice but it took a very long time to get our order. I wish we could give a better review. read more

My husband and I had a food tasting of several food trucks for dinner tonight. We tried the jerk chicken entrée at Sol Brother's Southern Barbecue today, and it was a good choice! The chicken was moist, and the sauce had a nice touch of heat that added great flavor. The beans leaned slightly on the sweet side but were still tasty. The rice, however, could've been cooked a little longer, as it was a bit al dente. The service was quick, and the prices were reasonable, which added to the overall experience. The food truck setup in Kihei is always a treat, especially around sunset. There are plenty of tables, and it wasn't too crowded, making it a comfortable spot to enjoy a meal. read more

Aloha Folks This spot solid! There aren't enough stars to properly rate this food. Where do I begin? Rae's rice goes on my top 5 list of great eats ever experienced! Flavor packed from beginning to end. Pulled pork smoky and tender. Mac n cheese rich n creamy. Baked beans with ground meat I could eat literally every single day and be content. Ribs don't even need bbq sauce but sauce is addictive. Brisket has such a lovely char and smoke flavor. Little thicker than I prefer but still worth the chew. I went back twice within 48 hours and totally worth it. Now let's get to why you should ALL hit up this joint. Unc as I call him works that grill like an instrument and has a kind laughter and friendly smile reminiscent of my grandpa. Aunty works the window with an open heart dedicated to her family legacy - like my granny did when they had their bbq restaurant. Alabama and Lousiana impeccably shines through every recipe we are honored to experience. Until next time. Thank you thank you thank you Mahalo read more

Leave no stone unturned--this BBQ spot is the real deal. The southern BBQ flavors were incredible, and my lunch hit every note. The brisket tasted like true Texas cooking but better--super tender, beautifully marbled, and not a dry bite in sight. The BBQ sauce was uniquely delicious (I don't even like BBQ sauce and still wanted more). The fried rice with sausage was perfect. My only personal note: the cabbage was a bit heavy on seasoning and peppers for my taste, but still had that southern flair. Overall, everything was absolutely scrumptious . I didn't plan to leave a review, but the food was so good I had to--hence the title. 10/10, would order again and again. read more

My family and I were looking for a place to grab lunch recently while we were in Kihei and were drawn to an aroma that smelled really good. We found that aroma coming from Sol Brothers Southern BBQ truck. They were located at a food truck park with a couple of other food trucks. However, the aroma lured us to try this truck and we were happy we did. We ordered a BBQ Chicken Plate, a BBQ Chicken Sandwich, a BBQ Rib Sandwich and a BBQ Rib Plate. The food tasted as good as it smelled. It was also a nice change of pace from what we were enjoying on our trip. Both the BBQ Chicken and BBQ Ribs were really good and flavorful. Service was fast and efficient. We were glad we came upon this food truck. read more

Hey! So...we ate so fast and so thoroughly that there are no pictures. Pork ribs were wet, flavorful, and fall off the bone tender. Beans are not my favorite usual side, but 10/10 would get these beans again. Meaty and smoky, went super well with the Mac n cheese. Would highly recommend coming here. Kudos to the owner, holy moly. Good food. read more

BY FAR THE BEST BBQ I HAVE EVER HAD i am from texas and have tried 30+ bbq spots before including terry blacks but none of them come close to sol brothers I quite literally finished a 1lb chicken plate in 5 minutes this food took my into a trance and held my taste buds hostage- i ordered the jerk chicken and it fell if the bone and melted in my mouth cannot recommend this place enough, if you are in maui IT IS MANDATORY to try this place not to mention the service was spectacular 45 minutes later im still smiling ear to ear this barbecue not only filled my stomach satisfied my taste buds and physically put a smile on my face! if i was in death row this is what i would have as my last meal! when i opened the plate the food was glowing and angelic music started playing. not joking even a little bit!!! from the bottom of my soul this is THE BEST BBQ EVER!!!!!! read more

I only tried the Mac and cheese but it was delicious! The whole area was gorgeous and perfect for our group of 11 at 8pm. Sadly there was a pretentious, entitled woman who felt it was appropriate to take videos of a local man who was down on his luck. She didn't appreciate it when I started recording her bad behavior, though. read more

Another food truck park! I only tried one item at Sol Brothers Southern BBQ. So I can't accurately judge them on the overall food, however the brisket sandwich I ordered was good. I've had way too many really amazing briskets from Austin, Charlotte, Nashville, that makes it hard to judge this brisket sandwich. If you're judging it against general bbq anywhere, I'd say it's pretty good, but it's a small portion with no sides. There are so many food truck parks in Maui and so many food options to try, I'd say if you are in the mood for bbq, check them out. It's pretty good, but it's not Texas or southern bbq. read more

Ate here twice during a recent visit to Maui! Highly recommend! I had the jerk chicken bowl! The first time it was everything I was craving and more! The chicken (we will call it a jerk bbq) was tender and delicious, over some creamy mac and cheese and some of the best baked beans I have ever had! The second time I was served by a different person other than the couple that said they own the food truck; this time it was an older woman, and I ordered the same thing. But to my surprise when I got home, there was no mac and cheese, instead it was chicken with rice and some baked beans! Though disappointed with that, I'm still giving it a 5 stars because have to give credit where credit is due! read more

Its not everyday that you get a seat at the table of a pitmaster. Its not everyday that you get to sample BBQ straight from the smoker. That's the experience you get at Sol Brothers Southern BBQ. I ordered the bbq rib sandwich with mac and cheese and it was outstanding. The sandwich is meaty, loaded with baby back rib meat. The ribs were perfectly caramelized and moist as it was cooked fresh. The BBQ sauce, the mac and cheese, and the smokey flavor from the keava wood had a perfect balance - just the right amount of sweetness, savoryness, and smoke flavor. Outstanding BBQ from a true pitmaster. read more

Hadn't had ribs for a long time, so I went to the Kihei Station food truck park and walked up to Sol Brothers Southern Style BBQ. It didn't start well. There was one guy in the trailer and he was on the phone. Obviously, he was not pleased. I waited longer than I should have. The guy went out the back door, to continue his discussion. Maybe he thought I was listening in (I wasn't). It might have been a hint to leave, but I didn't. He finally returned and took my order. I ordered the Smoked Baby Back Ribs. It comes with a Kula Green Salad and two scoops of rice. The menu also said I could add any side for $2.49. So, I asked for the small mac-n-cheese. He rang it up and the total was $27.60. When I told him that it seemed kinda high, he pointed down to the sign that states that "AS OF TODAY 4/7/2022 THERE WILL BE A 15% INCREASE TO ALL ITEMS ON THE MENU DUE TO SUPPLY AND FOOD COST INCREASE." Yeah, I saw the sign. It was right in front of me the whole time I was waiting. Still, with the increase, I figured it should be in the $22 to $23 range. I didn't feel like arguing, so I handed over my credit card. When it came time to sign, I added a tip, too. I looked at the receipt and it had a price $5.98 for the small mac-n-cheese that should have been $2.49 (plus 15%). But this was more than double. Well, I was told that that's where I screwed up. I should have ordered the mac-n-cheese as an add-on. I ordered a small serving. I should have known that if I include any side, it would be a serving that is smaller than a small helping. I let it slide. My order was up in a few minutes and he handed me my containers along with a fork, rolled up in a napkin that had smudges of BBQ sauce. I guess we both could have used a wet nap or two. Fortunately, I was taking my food home, so I wouldn't have to share a napkin. Another prominent sign on the trailer said UPON REQUEST ONLY and showed drawings of implements and packets of soy sauce. Two scoops of rice would benefit from some flavor, so I said I would like some soy sauce. I didn't request more than the sign said I needed to request, but he had to look at me and process it. He then gave me a little cup and said "you're welcome". I took my meal home. The salad was alright (just greens) with dressing on the side. The mac-n-cheese was really good and cheesy. The 5 ribs were tasty and the sauce was good but the meat was dry. I did feel compelled to check their math of the 15% price increase. Both the ribs and the small mac-n-cheese actually had 20% increases over the menu prices. I can't recommend Sol Brothers Southern BBQ. read more

Had their 12 hr smoked brisket sandwhich. It was amazing! Like melt in your mouth brisket. Absolutely delicious. Service was awesome. Favorite thing about the food truck atmosphere is that you get to talk to people, joke around and have a light hearted experience with great food. 10000% recommend for top tier BBQ, generous messy (only way to eat bbq) portions, && great atmosphere. I should have gotten the names of the people who made our food and took our order... I didn't but they're very sweet && add to the light hearted laid back feel of it all. read more

Came out quick, and it was amazing! I ordered the BBQ pulled pork bowl, which came with BBQ beans and mac and cheese. Everything was honestly perfect. The creamy, savory cheese sauce coated the pasta beautifully, and the smoky, tangy BBQ flavors blended so well with the cheese, adding a depth of flavor that was both unexpected and delicious. The tender pulled pork was juicy and flavorful, while the beans added a nice texture that paired beautifully with the creamy mac and cheese. The whole dish was hearty and satisfying, with a fantastic balance of smoky, cheesy, and savory flavors. I will definitely be coming back! read more
