My daughter and I were passing through Grayson when we saw this place knew we liked it before and decided it was time for lunch. My daughter had the brisket sandwich with baked beans and I had the pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw. The atmosphere was interesting, the service was great and the food was fantastic. Highly recommend recommended when in the area. read more

Wow just wow. We got pulled pork and brisket combo with slaw and mac and cheese. Man oh man it was so good. The sauces were excellent. Our waitress was the best. Relaxed, knew the menu, friendly, just on it. I can't say enough about the food, our awesome waitress and the relaxed atmosphere. If you don't try The Hogs Trough you are missing out. Almost forgot to mention. You cannot beat their prices. read more

The Hogs Trough - Pulled Pork. Brisket. Mac and Cheese. Coleslaw. Garlic Bread. Combo - Barbeque Near Me - Grayson, Kentucky

One of the only sit down places in town. The smoked wings are good but the deep fried ones had a tough,chewy skin to them. The deep fried banana peppers were delicious and the deep fried stuffed mushrooms were something genre and very tasty. The place is large and can handle large parties. Staff was so so but it looked like we hit there at the end of a long shift so I understand that. read more

My wife and I went to this restaurant on 7/12/26 and I ordered "The Big Brisket" and I understand that there will be pink with anything smoked but they brought this burger out and the patty was raw on the inside. The waitress takes the food back and tells me to not worry about that meal and to order something else. As I'm looking through the menu another lady and a cook comes out and starts telling me they can't take it off the bill because it was what I ordered and this cook with no teeth looks at me and tells me it says right here on the menu that because it's smoked it will have a pink ring. This patty didn't have a pink ring, it was completely raw. The description for how the smoked patties should come out is on a completely different burger they offer and the statement begins with "This Burger" So of course I wasn't even looking at this other option to read this. I guess they expect you to read their entire menu before ordering anything. They offered to discount it and said I could order something else but we just boxed up everything and left. They compensated us 25% for my meal which was about $3 and as you can see in the picture of the menu the description of how the smoked patty will come out in listed under "Smoked Brisket Cheeseburger" and I ordered "The Big Brisket" The worst part is they made me pay for this meal and wouldn't bring it back to me and said they already threw it away. We will never go back here. They obviously care more about the dollar than satisfying a paying customer. read more

Food was good. Service was on point. I like the set up of the restaurant. Look forward to trying more on the menu.

The food was outstanding and the quickness of getting the food was amazing. Its a great off the radar place that was a perfect way for me, my dad, and grandpa to end off our fishing trip at grayson lake. read more

The food was really good, but the service was very slow and impersonal. BBQ was excellent, sides were delicious too, and the BBQ sauce at the table was good. They have letters on the top but without an explanation we just had to try them all to see what they were. "G" was on the NC Style, "OG" was we maybe original. The plates were very well loaded up, but the waitress put them on the opposite side of the table and not near us, she did tell us to just slide them around. The decor was awesome, seats were comfy. As we left, no one at the hostess booth said anything, but a "See you next time" or "Thank you, have a great day" would have gone a long way. This place came highly recommended to us, but the service really fell flat. read more

The Hogs Trough is a great place to grab, dinner and if you drink they have a huge selection of beer and wine, I don't drink so I I tell you much about that The food there is awesome, hamburgers and fries are great but they are better known for their BBQ items such as ribs, pulled pork, wings. They are quite busy in the evenings that they are open mainly Friday and Saturday nights. read more

Stopped by for the first time & ordered a meal to go. Our food came out quickly (less than 7 minutes). We got pulled pork & brisket with house made mild BBQ sauce & Carolina gold BBQ sauce. Both sauces were very good. We received generous servings of the pork & brisket and they were tasty. Our sides of baked beans, potato salad & green beans were meh. We'd return here but probably skip the sides next time. read more

Amazing! We got two family platters and a ton of sides. Perfect for 15 people. Called a day ahead.

If you are ever driving along Hwy 64 and hungry for some good food, don't hesitate to stop here! We enjoyed a quick lunch. The restaurant is dim lit, but it's a cozy place, friendly service, with locals chatting over lunch. The brisket and pulled pork sandwiches were great! The hot bbq sauce has the perfect amount of spice and the Carolina gold is also yummy. read more

Love the prime rib Philly. The BBQ is great. All the sauces are on the table. Ribs are awesome. Wraps are all good. Fast service, almost too fast. It's not fancy but food is good. read more

I've had the steak and prime rib several times and it's always good. The brisket , pulled pork n chicken is also good. I'd say you couldn't go wrong with any choice! read more

This place has a very specific ambiance. The windows have mirror tint on them, so they're clearly going for the 'always drinking time' theme. Other than that immediate reaction, there's a particular smell. I can't place it. It's like a mix between soured laundry and probably the barbecue sauce. You don't notice it after a while. I got the brisket burger, which I was told was a ground mix of brisket and hamburger, smoked for an hour. I expect they toss it back on the grill for just a few minutes to get some heat into it when ordered, because it arrived about 5 minutes after I ordered. The burger was lukewarm. If it was fresh, I think it would have been really good. It wasn't bad, but without the barbecue sauce, I think it would have been bland. It was swimming in mayo, so maybe ask for that on the side. The fries looked crispy, but were right on the edge. Better than most McDonald's at least. I smothered mine in sauce as well, and it turned out pretty tasty. The menu shows Pepsi, but they have Coke. Thanks be to the pop gods. I'm giving it a 4 because I know if my burger was fresh and the fries slightly crispier, it would have deserved that. read more

Pushy and rude server, wife's food was cold, pre selected tip options were 20, 25, and 30%. Won't be back.

Let me talk to ya, Grayson! Me and the homie Billy we get through here very frequently and we stop and we live the service and we love the sauces. All the sauces are the Cat's Pajamas, ya heard. There ain't much in Grayson other than sauces and Freeway Football but when you at the Trough, brother, don't look down at the homie next to you, just stay focused on the task at hand: the chicken is delightful. I am here as a veteran to say the quiet parts out loud. You can hear it and you can fear it. read more

I have eaten here many times and have always had great food and service. I have liked everything I have tried but the brisket is my favorite. The dining area is large and has a separate bar area so it is family friendly, it is always seems clean and organized. I'm not sure how often but I have been here a couple of times during the weekend when they had live music . This is one of my favorite places to eat in the Grayson area. read more

Blah, blah, blah ... I've visited a couple times, ate inside. The sauce is good. Service too! The food wasn't bad, unless of course you order out like I did last. A SLAB of ribs to go, visiting maybe 5 minutes down the road. Ribs were COLD and SOOOO tough over cooked and DRYYYY. It was so disappointing and embarrassing to bring this home to a rib lover! I'll check out Ashland for barbecue next time. Ugh. It cost me, but I probably won't go back. read more

this has steadily become my favorite restaurant in Grayson. unfortunately they're only open Th - Sunday. I usually have the brisket and their fries are awesome. This is my Grayson go-to Sports bar because their competition tried to cut corners and went with a different TV sports plan that apparently only carry Pro Bowling and tractor pulls. Their food is very good and I've gotten to where I hate everything. read more

I recommend this restaurant for so many reasons. To start with, the barbecue is excellent. We walked over looking for a warm meal. Met a nice man at the bar. Didn't know he was the owner. I have never had better ribs in my life. I've been to Kansas City, Texas and elsewhere. This place has the best BBQ and the ribs were something I will never forget. The owner and his family are very special friends. They discovered that we were stranded in their town with a broken down vehicle. They made a few calls and then told me that they were going to fix my truck, so we could be on our way. It was a weekend and I had a job in Florida to get to. They showed us hospitality and friendship and they didn't even really know us. We will never forget the kindness and generosity. And those ribs. OMG. Get the ribs. read more

Great food, good service... very weird set up. Dark. Smokey. Blacked out. Very much resembles a nightclub/lounge/gentleman's club inside. We had incredible ribs, pulled pork, pulled chicken... all meat was great. Mac and cheese was crummy, tasted like Stoffer's. Fries and slaw were better. Felt like a great biker bar if you're riding in the area... read more

The restaurant was easy to find and clean. Service was a little iffy. Immediately after we were seated, the server asked if we knew what we wanted! Had not had a chance to open the menu.... Ordered the Brisket Burger, the burger was overpacked, over cooked and dry. The onion rings were so over cooked that if you dropped them on the plate - they shattered. Not sure if it was just on off night for them - based on my one visit, I do not recommend stopping. read more

Fries are soooo good! Burger was cooked the way I ordered and was juicy! If you order a big draft beer- get ready! It is huge!!

Great food great service. Awesome vibe great atmosphere great people. Nice and roomy full of flavor.

In town from Vancouver, Wa to visit my god son Dom who plays football at Kentucky Christian University. His dad (Kirkland, Wa) whom I came with Has been here and suggested this place And I'm glad he did. Great atmosphere super friendly from the moment we arrived until we departed. Started with cowboy nuggets...just order them you will thank me later, Had the BBQ Salad with Brisket on top OMG It was crisp, plentiful and the Brisket was moist, flavorful and a must get. Bartender (we sat at bar) Was engaging, attentive and a pleasure to deal with. Ater some Beers and our food we ended with Pork Rinds sure glad we did as they were crisp, warm and damn tasteful they even brought us some queso to dip if we wanted..they dont need anything to enhance them. I highly suggest stopping by when in Grayson,Ky I had a great experience when I come back to KCU I will definitely return here. #TeamRealDeal read more

This is definitely a hidden treasure. Small, quaint and very welcoming. I can't wait to check out the night life on the weekends.

Absolutely LOVE The Hogs Trough! I'm a pig fanatic & this is my new favorite place for pork. The pulled pork was great, ribs were great, & the smoked chicken was delicious. They have 3 sauces to choose from (homemade) & they all tasted great. Really good fries. I also tried their bacon Mac & cheese. The portion was small, but it was really good. Great atmosphere .... live music on certain evenings & a wood burning stove in the main dining area. I'll definitely be back! The negative: Only open Thur-Sun. Also, seats are very uncomfortable in the main dining area. However, the bar area is very nice with several high-top tables & chairs. read more

Great food !! One of the best places in Grayson to eat. Wish they were open 7 days a week , but they do pork right !!

This place was great! Family owned! Friendly and helpful staff. The food was even better!!! Came in on a Saturday night, late, and they still served food!! Actually called while driving west on I-64, and asked if they kitchen was open... Luckily it was!!! Thanks in part to a traveling Bluegrass Band "Sidelined"!!!
