Well we got take out so im hoping thats why it was so sub par. Got a lb of pulled pork, side of tortellini salad and a lb the “famous” mac and cheese. The pulled pork was decent, pretty good for the price. Tortellini salad was good. The mac and cheese though, disappointing. The most bland mac and cheese I’ve tried and it looked old? Not sure what happened there. Overall okay for the price but might not try it again.

My husband ordered the brisket, ribs, chicken, slaw, and potato salad. I ordered the chicken, pulled pork, mac n’ cheese and pickles. Both meals came with cornbread. We also sampled both sauces ( sweet and spicy). We will definitely be going back.

I got to sample their wares at a corporate gathering. So, limited menu, catering tent. But, this was fantastic!

A must visit place! We have stopped several times now and each time great BBQ. They do a solid take out business or you can pull up a seat and enjoy the food. Easy access and easy parking. Great view of the lake.

Went to Rubbin’ Butts with my best friend/ son Mark who recently purchased a house in Meredith!! I’ve been to a few barbecue places lately but this is the best I have tasted! If you like barbecue then you know it’s always an expensive treat! Rubbin’ Butts is juicy, tasty and oh so good ! The price is actually pretty good for the amount of barbecue you get ! The brisket , sausage, chicken and ribs were out of this world ! Can’t wait to go back with my son ! Of all the reviews I have given , this is one of the few (5) stars !

Ordered yesterday food was bland and chicken was raw, had to finish cooking it at home because when I tried to call, they don’t answer. Not worth the price and food wasn’t even seasoned and the corn bread is literally what they sell at Hannaford just my opinion but I wouldn’t recommend or go back at this point. Only positive was the Mac and cheese

Food was amazing. We are a family of four and the family platter was perfect. Also great price. Highly recommended the deviled eggs appetizer. A little bit of a wait but totally worth it. We will be back.
