First time here and the food was AMAZINGLY GOOD! Had the BBQ Sampler plater which included 1 chicken Leg, 1 chicken thigh, 4 Ribs, generous portion of pulled pork, Cornbread plus 2 sides.

★★★★★ 5.0 Tim Wong (Photo & Tech Alaka'i) · Sep 2025

As someone who regularly smokes meats, I have high expectations and this place does not disappoint. Brisket (perfect texture and taste), pulled pork and chicken were stellar. Sad that they were out of beef ribs, but photos look amazing. Mac and cheese, baked beans, sweet potatoes, jambalaya and corn bread were all great. Definitely coming back for the beef ribs!

This food was amazing. The sides were fantastic, seasoned, brilliantly formed. The cornbread tasted otherworldly, excellent! I was disappointed with the ribs, weren't tender and very rough. The brisket was mighty good although some of it was dry, other pieces weren't. I give it a 4 stars because the sides were amazing, however the meat is supposed to be their glory and I was disappointed. Were in the tenderism era, this BBQ place has to do better with their meats. A++ on the sides! I spent $58.

THE SERVICE: The employee answering the phone had good phone etiquette; my order was confirmed, she stated the total, and then provided the pickup time. Upon entering the restaurant I was immediately greeted with an array of tantalizing aromas. Two employees next to the counter not preparing food, looking disinterested, completely ignored my existence as I waited for service (created an unwelcoming atmosphere). A couple minutes later a young lady comes from the back with a very pleasant disposition. She immediately greeted me, and then retrieved my order verifying all items. I knew she was the person I spoke with because of her excellent customer service. There is limited seating if opting to eat in. The atmosphere is akin to a traditional bustling take out restaurant. THE FOOD: I or

We recently took our family of five to Tennessee’s BBQ in Braintree, and it was such a fun experience! From the moment we walked in, the place felt like the real deal. We ordered the Family Pak, which is supposed to feed four, but it was perfect for us with a little extra for our hungry crew. Ribs, pulled pork, and a spread of four sides came out looking mouthwatering. Our little baby couldn’t wait to try the ribs! You could see the excitement on her face as she eyed the plate, and we couldn’t blame her. Then, our older ones got into the sauce like pros, and let’s just say there was a lot of laughing (and some pretty epic BBQ messes) at our table! But oh, the food! The flavors were smoky and rich, exactly what you hope for in good BBQ. The ribs were tender and fell off the bone, the pull
