Just what you need after a Rum Tasting at Ko Hana. Portions are massive and the food is delicious! We split a mixed plate with brisket and Kalua pig, with a side of rice and beans. Even though we thought this was "too much food" it was so good we couldn't stop eating. Brisket was juicy and tender, the pork was nicely smoked, and the beans were loaded with beef. If you visit Ko Hana for a tour/tasting, you must stop by for some authentic Hawaiian food after. read more

Brisket? Bomb. Smoked Meat? Bomb. Located at the back of KoHana Distillers, This Lil Piggy is a great place to dine before/after touring the distillery. You order and pick up at the counter, and there's a good amount of open-air, shaded seating available. The place gives off a classic countryside vibe. When we were there, we ordered 1lb brisket and 1lb smoked meat plus scoops of rice on the side. It was a pretty straightforward lunch (meat + rice) but very satisfying. Four of us shared the 2 lbs of meat and finished our meal with a little leftover. Also, don't forget to grab a bag or two of pipi kaula to take home :) It's a place worth checking out. read more

*Check your order before leaving* I can honestly say this was probably the best BBQ I've had on island. The smokiness was perfect and not overpowering and the brisket was perfectly tender. But when we went, they were out of coleslaw. They asked if we wanted extra bread or extra beans to replace the missing slaw. We said beans. When we got home. We were disappointed to find that we had no beans and three bread rolls, which obviously wasn't a good experience. I'm guessing they ran out of beans and didn't bother to tell us, despite the fact that they opened at 11 and we got there at 11:30. We would go back again, but we will have to double check they got our order right before leaving. read more

Been meaning to try this place and was able to snag a plate from the Thursday Kailua Farmers Market. Short line moved fast and the menu was right there. I grabbed a 3 choice plate with brisket, ribs, and the brisket & beans. Swapped out the cole slaw for extra bread. Staff were super friendly and apologized for a short wait while more meat was sliced. The wait wasn't a problem at all as the food dropped me into a coma less than halfway through the plate. The brisket is thick sliced and falls apart so easily. The ribs were good, but the surprise on the plate was the brisket & beans. I chose that as a gamble and it was the only thing I completely finished during the sitting. This place was awesome. I'll be back for sure. read more

Will. Drive. for. BBQ. This spot is right in the back of KoHana brewery in Kunia. You can pick up drinks at the brewery and bring them in the back to drink with your meal. Hubs and I shared a 4 choice plate, and it was definitely enough for 2. The ribs were tender and fell off the bone, the brisket was moist the sausage was tasty, and the pulled pork was juicy, but not my favorite. Hubs enjoyed the beans and I thought the cole slaw was original. They have sauces that you can self serve, although I couldn't quite decide which one I preferred more. Tons of seating, and little fly swatting fans to keep critters at bay. There is a house cat that hangs out, and there is also a nice view of the Waianae mountains as well. Ladies (and gentlemen) this is a bring-a-hair-clip or scrunchie kind of joint. Can't be fussing with hair when you are deep in Southern BBQ! read more

Located behind/in what would be the courtyard KōHana Distillery, this barbecue joint is delectable! We split a mixed plate with Kalua pork and brisket then swapped the cole slaw for beans. It was flavorful, plentiful, and the rice was such a good idea! Having rice under the meat soaked in the juices and brought the plate together. It was also a great way to settle following the rum tour. read more

Add this to your must to eat places! Oh my goodness their Texas style beef brisket is Woooow!!! So packed with flavor, the meat is nicely tenderly soft and I really like the charred end bits with the fat at the end. We had it as a combo plate with the trio sausage and it was good too and let's not forget the Wailupe valley smoked meat which was also soo ONOLICIOUS. My fave is their homegrown greens for the Cole slaw - yummolicious. Let's no forget their sauces, spicy which is so the bomb and bbq too. Go check them out, your craving will be satisfied for sure! Mahalo for the great service from the back and front house! Awesome always. read more

I discovered This Lil Piggy at Foodie Con and tried their brisket and beans with rice which was tender and I personally don't like beans, but their beans had sweetness to it so it was really good! They're located in Kunia behind Ko Hana Rum Distillery, so walk thru to the back door, turn left. There's outdoor seating available - FYI: there's a lot of flies around cause they smell your food. Here's everything we got... ~ 2 item mixed plate ($18) - Texas Style Beef Brisket (+$8) and Memphis Style Pulled Pork ~ 3 item mixed plate ($23) - Texas Style Beef Brisket (+$8), St. Louis Pork Spare Ribs (+$2), Beans & Brisket (+$1) ~ Beans & Brisket with rice ($14) The mixed plates come with cole slaw from Kunia Country Farms and Hawaiian sweet bread. Food is a bit pricey... the meat wasn't as tender as when I tried it at Foodie Con, but still good and had lots of flavor. read more

I'm not sure if I would recommend this place for barbecue. I've tried a couple of barbecue on the mainland which I thought were very good. The product I tried here was not as well made. I bought a half pound of brisket just to try and I thought it lacked flavor. I usually try it without any added sauce. I thought it needed to be smoked a lot longer as the fat layer was still very thick. For the price I paid, about a third was the weight of the fat.. I was disappointed but still have hope that it may have been an off day for the pit master. read more

This review is for their Farmers market location at the Neil Blaisdell Center on April 9, 2025. They have a limited menu if ala carte items such as ribs, sausage and pipikaula. Aunty was looking lonely so I chatted with her for a little bit before getting the 3 sausage ala cart plate. Couldn't wait to go home and try it so I sampled a piece of the beef sausage with a take out fork before leaving. The sausage was juicy and full of flavor. Later at home, I tried the spicy pork sausage and it, too, was really good. The third sausage, arabiki like chicken, had a nice peppery taste. Aunty was very kind and packed my mini plate container to the hilt! Now I've got sausage for breakfast, too! Next time I'll try their ribs and pipi kaula. And the next time I'm in Kunia I'm going to sample some of their brisket, too. read more

Easy to find... from H1, head up Kunia Rd a couple miles. It will be on the left-hand side after passing the Kunia Golf Course. Plenty of open parking directly in front of Ko Hana Distillery. Walk through KHD to get to Lil Piggy. We arrived at around Noon on a Saturday and we were the only customers there. Wide open, plenty of picnic tables to sit at. Ordering is easy and fast. Had the food in our hand in less than five minutes. We got the Beef Brisket and the St Louis Ribs plate. Excellent...! Very satisfied. read more

This Lil Piggy - Caterers Near Me - Kunia Camp, Hawaii

This lil restaurant is located in Kunia Camp away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Pretty hard to find if you don't know what you're looking for. Anyways, look for KoHana Distillers. Walk through the distillery to find a doorway all the way in the back. And viola, the eatery is right there. Plenty of picnic tables for seating. By the way, there's plenty of parking outside. It's just that there's no sign for the restaurant. They focus on BBQ. The menu isn't large, but everything I've had has been a winner. The baked beans and brisket was awesome. Served in a bowl of rice topped with beans, brisket, and sweet bbq sauce. This was my favorite. Brisket was tender, flavorful and just delicious. The mix of the beans and rice was really filling. I got a side of brisket as well. It came with rice, a roll, and some coleslaw. This was a good second choice. They offer sweet or spicy bbq sauce. Both were good. It's a drive up to this place but it's well worth it. Popular with tourists going to the distillery or the military from the nearby bases. By the way, there's plenty staff were amazing. Friendly and pretty fast. read more

#46 of 52 (weeks of trying a new restaurant at least once a week) I saw someone review this on IG and bookmarked it for a future visit. We didn't want to go far from home for lunch so we decided to finally give this place a try. I will mention before I get into this review that I don't really like BBQ sauce. I like the vinegar versions but not the sweet sauce that a lot of meat has on it when you go to a BBQ joint. Ok enough of that...... We arrived at the rum distillery and parking was not an issue as it wasn't very busy. You walk through the building until you get outside, make a left to go behind the building and you've arrived! The menu is not huge, which I appreciate, so we were able to quickly make a decision. I went with the brisket plate that came served over rice with a roll and some coleslaw. My honey got the rib plate with baked beans & brisket, a roll and coleslaw. We also had to get a side of the smoked sausage trio. We took a seat to wait for our food. They have picnic table set up that are covered which was really nice. It's outdoors and there are flies but they had those battery powered fly fans to keep them away that you could grab and put on your table. Our food didn't take too long and when we picked it up they pulled out some sauces we could try. We tried both, a regular one and a spicy one. I really liked my brisket. It was nice and tender and just the right amount of fat. The coleslaw was good but I don't know if it was homemade. It tasted like the bag salad with dressing you can get at Costco. Sausages were good but again, not homemade. My honey really liked his ribs and he ate more of the bbq sauces than I did and he really liked the sauces. His baked beans and brisket were good too and not too sweet. Portions are generous so we had some to take home and munch on later. If you're in the area be sure to stop by and try it! We'll definitely be back. read more

This Lil Piggy - Brisket plate, rib plate and sausage trio. - Caterers Near Me - Kunia Camp, Hawaii

The food here is so broke da mouth good! It no make difference if it's either from the Farmers Market or their brick and mortar location out in Kunia since it's all good. Favorite was definitely the Baked Beans & Brisket, with the Sausage Smoked Trio coming in second. My wife enjoyed the Texas Style Beef Brisket and the Hawaiian Sweet Bread that came with it so we are definitely going to try the sliders next time we go. SERVICE Service was outstanding! They did a great job explaining the menu and answering all of our questions about the menu. PARKING We went on a weekday little bit after lunch time so it wasn't that packed and we were able to find handicap parking. ACCESSIBILITY Just know that you go through Kohana Rum and out their back door and you will see This Lil Piggy. There is a small ramp to walk up to reach the window to order from. I don't really do stairs well so I just walked back down the ramp. read more

This restaurant is located up Kunia next to the rum distillery. Head to the back of the distillery you will find an open restaurant. There are bench seats under the awning. Very open and welcoming.

This is country living and a nice spot for this eating place. I use to live here and still give me a lot of pride to be back to my hometown and my roots. This place has Good food good vibe. I wish they serve smoke slow cooked prime rib and Beef ribs and it would make it complete. read more

Hi Lisa. Did they go to the market? Did they go to the store? Did they go into my stomach. Yes. Thank you for being so friendly and introducing me to your delicious pipikaula Hawaiian beef jerky. And, of course after you gave me the sample, my wallet comes out. I always enjoy and make a point to visit KCC to see what's new besides trying the many favorites from past years. In walking the aisles of stands, the magic word "Pipikaula" caught my eyes. Being a huge jerky fan, I couldn't help from stopping here. The texture, the flavor, the bite... Sold. Saving stomach space for a bowl of pho a few steps away, I didn't even read the menu of cooked food here. In hindsight, I should have considered it since this is how it read (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=288&select=3YxBy801F_CrFGg32J2A6A). So back to what I bought, my friend who I gifted a small bag generously shared her bag of jerky (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=96&select=gs2nAcoP4ZTBTKjKwm4sEQ). I enjoyed the spicy one just as much as the original one that I sampled at KCC. I brought two large bags home for myself and a couple bags of each as gifts for Bay Area friends. Thank you again, Lisa, for introducing this to me and, hopefully, when I visit next year, I'll get to try your cooked food besides getting more bags to bring home. Look for them at the Saturday KCC farmer's market. read more

Hubby wanted to try this place for a while so he picked up lunch for us the other day. He was the first customer at opening so it wasn't busy at all. He ordered brisket, tri-tip and the sausages, which came with rice, coleslaw and a roll. The tri-tip was served over a crunchy salad. There was plenty of food for the two of us to share and have some left over for another meal. Meats were tender and flavorful; even though some of the brisket was a little fattier than I preferred, I think it was the best of the bunch. A little on the pricey side for a plate lunch but good quality overall. read more

This Lil Piggy - Sausage, tri-tip and brisket with slaw/salad - Caterers Near Me - Kunia Camp, Hawaii

You'll find This Lil Piggy off Kunia Rd by the old plantation homes and the distillery. From the road it looks like an Amish sweatshop but as soon as you turn the corner, the smell of meat hits you like a Southern preacher's guilt sermon. Outdoor seating, tons of picnic tables, and these fancy self-propelling fans to keep the flies off your food. They even have a grassy area for the kids to run around in while you enjoy your meat coma in peace. We ordered the 1 lb Texas-style beef brisket plate for $37. It comes with brisket, a mountain of rice big enough to bury a body under, a tiny scoop of kale-style coleslaw (which was delicious), and two dinner rolls. You can add sides, so we grabbed the smoked bacon garlic mashed potatoes with cheese for $14. It was a 16oz portion big enough to feed 3 hungry adults or one depressed raccoon. It was so good, id push my mother-in-law down the stairs for another bite. The brisket was easily the best brisket weve had on the island. Juicy, tender, fatty edges that melted in my mouth like the moral standards of every chronic we passed in Wahiawa. Large slices with a smoky crust. We drove in rush hour traffic for this, dodging every rogue moped and enjoying 'LovahBoy' blasting Common Kings with his million subwoofers peeping out the back window. We didnt see him but we know he was within a few miles of us We shared one plate and left one heartbeat away from a kanak-attack. Honestly debated laying down in the grass, letting the brisket finish the job, and leaving the kids to tell our story. Total was $59 and they even threw in a free sausage sample, which felt like a little wink from the pitmaster. Bottom line: Come hungry and update your Will before you get here because its definitely putting you in a food coma. Definitely coming back. read more

First time trying,, Hubby's choice. Located in back of Kohana Rum Distillery. Cute plantation style set up. Order at the window and pick a picnic bench under the covered pavilion. We came during lunch, but they have the pavilion strung with festival lights, must be pretty at night, The girl who was at the window was very friendly and welcoming, she took the time to explain the menu and when I told her what I specifically wanted she suggested the best way to order it. The food was ready in less than 10 min. ! Food was hot and tasty. I ordered the baked beans and rice bowl, sweet baked beans with pieces of brisket inside and I ordered the Sausage Trio which was Keilbasa, Portuguese Sausage and not sure what the other other one was. It was good! Hubby ordered the 3 piece pork ribs which came with rice, coleslaw, baked beans and a Hawaiian Sweet Roll, he also ordered the Beef Brisket which came with the same sides. Hubby enjoyed it saying the coleslaw was creamy and everything was flavored well. It also came with a sweet and a spicy BBQ sauce. The place was not crowded at all. Came on a Sunday around 1 pm. Parking is in the lot right in front of the distillery. The only downside was that there are a lot of flies trying to get at your food, which is understandable since it is an open air pavilion. They did have those battery operated fly shooers but none of them were working accept one, we waited till the people who had the working one left and took it. Also, although it was a hot day there was a nice breeze, it would probably be really hot if there were no trade winds. I would definitely check it out! Support Local! read more

(Dined 05/20/23 SA @ 2:00pm): This lil piggy... had BBQ! After a friend and I had an afternoon of rum tasting at KōHana Distillers, we were excited to get some food into us and were excited to try This Lil Piggy, a little hidden BBQ joint on the same property. We weren't exactly buzzing from the tastings, but we also didn't have any snacks or such to temper any potential alcohol effects. Plus, once we heard about it, checked it out, and smelled the aroma, the decision was made. Did we savor more than lil piggies to fill our bellies!? PURCHASE 3-Choice Lunch Plate - Kalua Pork, Smoked Sausage Trio, Ribs ($22.00): You also had the option for a slider, but we went full meat since the meal already came with a piece of Hawaiian sweet bread. This was a massive portion that was perfect for sharing between the both of us. The kalua pork was finely shredded and seasoned perfectly. The smoked sausage was a meat-gasm in the making as each piece was juicy and succulent, while the ribs were thick, lightly sauced with more of a dry seasoning, and didn't exactly fall off the bone but was tender with some nice charring. Their homemade coleslaw was refreshing and seemed more like a mini salad than actually slaw which was fine. The rice and sweet bread rounded out the meal nicely, but I wished there was an extra scoop of rice for all of the sausage pieces. Magnificent! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=1776&select=aNx-qbHv1x8wSsYTeve-cw Half Pound Texas Style Beef Brisket Sliced ($15.00): Half pound of beef brisket served with a side of their "cole-slaw-from-scratch", a Hawaiian sweet bread, and a scoop of rice, we also shared this large portion of food and the gigantic slices of mouth watering brisket. You were nearly able to tear off strips of glistening moist seasoned succulent meat with just enough fat content to add more flavor. And, I loved a good char on my meat which had plenty of for an added crisp. Damn this was good! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=1776&select=dgVnl3O0hdXmAlCLIqWiqA SERVICE We were warmly greeted by a couple of friendly gentlemen behind the counter as we started casually chatting about their business, the menu, and what to order. After we placed our order, we were given a number, we found a place to sit, and just roamed the grounds until our food was ready about ten minutes later. Once we started eating, it was over. We said our salutations as we threw away our trash and returned the trays, and that was it - mahalo! PARKING (FREE) They basically shared the private parking with KōHana Distillers - 'nuff said! ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE Basically located in a shack out back behind the distillery, there was an order window with a menu https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=1776&select=k_PDvNYeaXM8Hx8mpukj1Q posted right next to it, a spacious covered dining area https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=1776&select=4_c1aMrbtHrslEPD7N5C3Q with several communal wooden benches/tables, and views of the agricultural land https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=1776&select=ZOJHj9pAvaZldITAjn7y0g this property sat on. Plenty of natural lighting since you were outdoors while rows of electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. There were no TVs nor any background music. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=1776&select=IbrAdSbuT4pMvbKzDseKFg ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL This Lil Piggy was an amazing "find" and would definitely consider a return visit if I were in the area. Sadly, unless you planned a visit to Kōhana Distillers or were passing through, This Lil Piggy was generally out of the way. The menu was simple and tight, the portion sizes phenomenal, the prices were more than comparable, and the service was chill and laid back. Sadly, they didn't serve any alcohol which would've paired well with the BBQ. I suspected this was a pet-friendly place. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $39.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS read more

I never got a photo because the food was that good! We ordered a plate with smoked meat and ribs. It came with rice, a roll, and coleslaw. They were out of quite a few things when we got there. The smoked meat is insanely good. I even went back for an à la carte portion that I ended up finishing at home with shrimp chips. I can't write enough amazing reviews about this food. Definitely get the smoked meat - it's addicting like candy. The only suggestion that I could have to make this even better is if they start serving mac salad with the plate. But this is a solid spot! read more

This is a hidden gem located in the back of Kohana Rum. Pretty pricey, but it's BBQ and what isn't pricey nowadays. The flavors were there and it is a nice change to the typical plate lunch. Hard to find good BBQ, we haven't quite found a spot that reminds us of TX BBQ but This Lil Piggy comes close!! The only complaint I would have is the flies. Being that it is outdoor seating and smells good, the flies are constantly trying to dive into your food. They do provide those table top fly deterrent fans. There is only 1 per table. read more

We all need to support local and that is why I decided to try this place for the first time. But my experience was NOT great. I ordered the 2 item plate and chose (brisket and ribs) and another plate with the beans and brisket. The cashier REPEATED my order back to me and I paid $50. When I got my order it was a plate with a half rack of ribs, rice, roll, and no brisket or coleslaw? I also was given a bowl of beans with no rice and a piece of brisket inside and still no coleslaw (maybe their plates just doesn't come with coleslaw) Long story short, she said they do not sell a brisket & ribs combo plate, it's either one or the other? So if I wanted the brisket then I would have to buy another plate with just the brisket for $20. I told her that she repeated my order back to me and that is the reason why I paid $50. She said she could not do anything for me, but I could keep the plate that I already paid for and she would give me her employee discount to buy a brisket plate which cost me another $20. (which by the way was 70% fat, probably because I complained and still NO coleslaw. I really felt like this was a bait and switch that cost me seventy dollars. I love patronizing local eateries because we all need to help support local, but sometimes eateries make it hard for us to support them. Thank you for reading. read more

Met some friends for lunch on a Sunday. Walked up and ordered food. They have a small menu posted on the wall, but the menu shown on Yelp has more plate options. We chose the 3 kind of meat plate: ribs, brisket and sausage trio. We also added an extra coleslaw and extra side of brisket. The ribs were good, tender and not dry. The brisket was cut thick and had a nice fatty edge, but I didn't care much for the rub. The sausage was ok. We tried the spicy bbq sauce and sweet bbq sauce. The spicy was not spicy - so don't worry if you're not into spicy. I'm sure you'll be fine. I really liked the coleslaw. Creamy, crisp and a refreshing side to counter the meatiness. Food was ready fairly quickly. Service was friendly. Each table had paper towels and electric fans to help keep the flies at bay. Good idea! All in all not bad. Maybe next time we'll take the rum tour beforehand. read more

My friend found this wonderful bbq spot on instagram reels and suggested we try it. This spot is located inside the Ko Hana Rum Distillery and is very adorable and country-like. Seating is outdoors and covered, but the only negative part is that there will be a lot of flies when it's hot. Parking was also easy to find. We shared the Texas Style Beef Brisket and St. Louis Pork Ribs with a side of their sweet bbq sauce and spicy bbq sauce. The plates also came with a side of rice, a hawaiian roll, baked beans (yum!), and cole slaw (yum!). The brisket was definitely my favorite - it was super flavorful and tender. There were no lines so service was quick. It was absolutely worth the drive out to Kunia Camp! I will be back!!! read more

Spontaneously, my friend suggested that we visit Lil Piggy Kunia since she attended her cousins catered party the week before at Lil Piggy, and enjoyed their food. Thus, we met at 12:45p, on Friday, 3/8/24, and ordered our meal. Fortunately, at the time that we arrived there were no lines. We also had excellent customer service from the person taking our order at the front counter. He mentioned what items were more expensive if ordering certain items. I ordered the 3 choice meal for my husband to go. My husband wanted the Texas Style Beef brisket, and 2 orders of the St. Louis Pork ribs. This plate also came with rice, baked beans with brisket, coleslaw, and a bun. It came with containers of spicy and regular barbecue sauce. My husband enjoyed it when I brought it home for him to eat. My friend and I ate our lunches on the picnic tables at the covered outdoor seating area. The ambiance was peaceful and spacious with views of the greenery and the Kohala Rum buildings and Vats. The atmosphere reminded my friend of her parent's farm, that she missed. My friend ordered the Texas Style Beef ribs and a side order of baked beans and coleslaw. The ribs were huge and substantial. She wanted a knife, but they didn't have any so she enjoined eating it with her fingers. She mentioned to me that the Baked Beans were flavorful with a bit of a spicy kick to it, that made it special. I ordered the 2 choice selection of the Wailupe Valley Smoked Meat. It had a smokiness to it with a sweet and salty flavor to it. The meat was sliced thinly with onions in it. The Baked Beans and Brisket was sweet and savory and one of the best baked beans I've ever eaten. I liked the sweet and spiciness of the sauce that blended well with the tender brisket. My friend was right, it was delicious. We also ordered a Coke and Juice to satiate our thirst and have with our hearty lunch. Fortunately, Lil Piggy also has cute fly fans available for customers to put on the tables to repel the flies. That was a nice touch. Clearly, my friend and I both had leftovers galore; since the serving sizes were hearty. We packed our leftovers to enjoy later at home. We will indeed be back to Lil Piggy in Kunia to try their other specialties. read more

Best BBQ on the island! A friend of mine knew how much I love brisket and insisted on me trying. My husband and I tried the smoked meat, ribs and brisket all which did not disappoint. The brisket had a good amount of fat with good crust. So delicious. Must pair with their home made spicy bbq sauce. Ribs were fall off the bone with so much flavor. Smoked meat was good but nothing that stood out from any other smoked meat on the island. Eating area is outdoors and this lil piggy provides automatic fly swatters. I've been here 3 times and I've only found out about this place a couple months ago. Highly recommend to try. read more

The area is a bit nostalgic for me, in a cute whole in the wall place. It was interesting to walk through the front store and see the different items they have upfront.

Food is legit bbq. A bir on the pricey side but the quality of the meat and smoke flavor is just right, for my taste.

Pidgin talk: Baked beans with brisket is da winnahz! Slather it all over white rice and you will kanaks, garanz ball baranz. Chee! I like some moa! English translation: The baked beans with brisket is a must have. Sensationally delicious and a reason to return to patron this establishment. But seriously, that and the smoked brisket, sausage trio, and cole slaw are all delicious, too. Plus the staff there are friendly and very good with suggestions. They have a wide array of canned drinks like coconut water, Hawaiian Sun juices, Coke and Coke Zero, and Zoa energy. Plenty of picnic tables for seating. Some tables had dispensers of paper towels and there's battery operated fly swatters to keep the flies away. Can't wait to go back to try their ribs. read more

This Lil Piggy - Beef Brisket and Sausage Trio with Baked Beans and Brisket - Caterers Near Me - Kunia Camp, Hawaii

Ordered the Texas-style brisket and was really disappointed, it lacked seasoning and flavor. I payed about $80 for 2 of the same plates. Unfortunately, the quality here has gone downhill from what it used to be years ago. Not sure if they changed who's running the BBQ, but it's definitely not the same. Even the rice was dry and unappetizing. Sadly, I won't be coming back. read more
