At dusk

Consider myself a BBQ conniseur and tried this Q last week and have to say that what I had was the best around to include Big Bobs, Whitts, Lawyers and Golden Rule, to be fair I only had a pork sandwich and potato said but it was excellent Q. Looking forward to trying the chicken and ribs. For what it's worth I am an amateur competition Q'er and this was some good stuff.

It is really only ok. Sweet tea was not good at all, stew didn't have much flavor at all. I was a bit disappointed in the food all around.

I walked into Pig Skin BBQ thinking I'd just get a little nibble, and I walked out fuller than a…read moretick on a hound dog! The food was heavenly. The moment I opened the door, that smoky aroma just wrapped around me like a warm hug from my late Aunt Marlene. I ordered the pulled pork platter, and oh my... that meat was so tender I swear it practically jumped onto my fork on its own. The sauce had just the right balance--sweet enough to make you smile, but with a little kick that reminded me I'm still alive and kicking too. And don't even get me started on the mac and cheese... so creamy it could make a grown man cry. If you're thinking about trying Pig Skin BBQ, stop thinking and go! I'm already planning my next visit, and I might even bring my bible study ladies--if I feel like sharing. LOL!

I give the food around a 3.5 but the service was outstanding so I'll round up to a 4…read more I visited this bbq spot after spending the day working in Hartselle. I found the parking lot a little hard to access (the way the roads cross in front of the restaurant is a little wonky) but once you're in it's a spacious lot. I was pleased to find you could actually smell the smoke from the parking lot. Usually a good sign. It's an order at the counter type of place. Not a ton of tables, but I'd say it feels much homier than a lot of other small bbq joints. I used the restroom after placing my order and found it immaculate. Great job! They have a fairly large menu but I went with a tried and true favorite of mine: a loaded pork potato. I had a large sweet tea to drink and also got a slice of chocolate pie to go for later at home. I thought the price was maybe a tiny bit high (~$17), but prices are high everywhere and then again the portion sizes were immense. The service really was lovely. The lady working at the register was just super warm and considerate. Southern hospitality, I suppose! She thoughtfully packaged my pie and was even kind enough to bring my order to me -- more than I expect at counter service places. I also watched her be exceptionally patient with an elderly couple who had a lot of questions/requests. On to the food itself. The pork potato was the best thing I ordered, which is good since it's a bbq place first and foremost! It was an absolutely MASSIVE stuffed potato -- bigger than even Lawlers. It comes with butter, sour cream, cheese, bacon bits, chives, and your bbq of choice (pork for me). I appreciate them adding the butter and sour cream rather than serving it on the side as some places do. I find it melts into the potato better that way. The pork was tender, not too fatty, and tasted good overall, but I do think it was missing a little smokiness. For me, the sweet tea wasn't quite sweet enough, but it was passable. The large size is absolutely massive, lol. The disappointment here for me was the pie. In fairness to them, I have crazy high standards for chocolate pie and it's truly rare for a place to meet them -- my mom makes my favorite. There was a LOT of pretty flavorless meringue, which I scraped off. Underneath it, the chocolate pudding/custard just wasn't chocolatey enough for me. I like an intensely chocolatey pie and this one was just kind of bland. The crust was okay but if I had to guess I'd say likely the Pillsbury store bought kind -- understandable, since it's pretty good and homemade crust is a pain to make. Overall, though, I'd return for the pleasant atmosphere and tasty tater. Give them a try if you're in the area.
