Overall, Firehouse was a fun spot for a family lunch. The experience, atmosphere, service, and value were all positives, but I was a bit underwhelmed by the brisket in particular. That said, the food was still good and I'd recommend a visit.

Unfortunately on May 2nd approximately 4:00 in the afternoon I stopped in at barebones BBQ and…read moreordered two sandwiches to go one being pulled pork the other one being a chopped beef brisket sandwich to go and when I got home I take one bite of the pulled pork and one bite of the chopped beef brisket and it was the worst food I've ever had in my life. Turns out several hours later I was sick for 3 days with severe diarrhea and almost to the point where I had to go to the emergency room and I'm sure they would have admitted me to the hospital I sent a message to the ownership and they apologize for me getting sick and volunteered to return my money and here it is mid-june and I haven't received a dime back from them and a total came out to less than $20 and I have a copy of the receipt and I also got a message from them telling me that they couldn't match the name up well my wife had paid with her debit card and therefore the names didn't match but that should have made any difference because I gave him the exact time and what we had and the exact dollar amount and no response for over 6 weeks now and I think they've had enough time to save up the money to pay me back for the lousy food that they served me obviously was tainted with some kind of bacteria or some other disease and I'd really like to get my money back. They can contact me through my email address tx4ricks@gmail.com if they are interested in refunding.

The pulled pork was phenomenal. We are from KC and their BBQ would be fine against stiff competition there. Sides of baked beans, slaw and macaroni and cheese were all very good. The kids loved the Mac and cheese. For dessert they added their banana pudding which was also really good. I've heard their burgers are also great, but I would probably always get the BBQ if we lived here

Today just went with the pork with two sides, Mac and cheese and tater tots. The pork was good. They don't sauce you do that yourself.

We they in some of the pork and it was perfect. I would definitely visit again because they have smoke bologna. I must try that.

The best BBQ in Johnson City!…read more The location is what you'd expect from a traditional BBQ joint - nice big tables/booths. Some TV's for sports etc. The food though is what is beyond amazing - the pulled pork and the brisket are my go-to's. Their sides are also fantastic - collard greens are literally to die for, the cornbread pudding is delectable, and they have the best vinegar cole slaw I've ever had. Make sure to get the banana pudding if they're not already sold out!
