I wasn’t sure what to expect for BBQ in New Hampshire but I was pleasantly pleased. I ordered Texas Caviar, creamed corn, cole slaw, chili, smoked turkey, and a meat called goodness. The caviar was OK but could have used more flavor. The same for the cole slaw. The creamed corn was excellent. The chili was very good worth a very nice flavor. There were plenty of chunks of meat, and it delivered a nice kick. The turkey was good but the goodness stole the show. It was truly outstanding. Great texture, great smell, great flavor. It stood head and shoulders above the offerings and the offerings were good. On a scale from 0-10 I would rate this 8.5.

We had the pulled pork and brisket. It was good. Also had baked beans and coleslaw. The beans had a smoky flavor, yummy! The slaw was the best! Tastes exactly like my homemade slaw!

Went here on Mother’s Day and the service was still super quick! I had the pulled pork sandwich and tried some of my partners brisket. It was all absolutely delicious. The Mac n cheese was exactly the type I have in mind to pair with some excellent bbq. And as an added bonus the beer was great too!

I’ve been here multiple times and it’s a favorite Sunday lunch spot. I’ve lived most of my life in New Hampshire, and I’m by no means a barbecue expert, but I think their offerings are solid and always delicious. Good quality meat, and good quality sides. A good variety of options makes it a great place to bring a large group who wants to mix-and-match and share a meal.

I have been wanting to visit for a long time. Finally went yesterday. The brisket is good (not great and the char is cut off – not a good idea). The brisket chili is very good. But the service is terrible. I had to wait over 15 minutes for my order, after I placed the order at the cash register. 8-9 people on staff but no coordination or leadership. By the time I received my order the line at the cash registers was almost out the door. I will not be visiting again. Too bad. A lot of potential with the right leadership.

Nice place. Sausage was good (we got the mild ones) pork ribs were fine..smoked. Brisket was excellent. The lean sections were a bit dry, but the marbled sections were succulent. I wanted to taste the meats, not the condiments, so we did not use any bbq sauces. Not a big fan of hiding meats in sauce and calling it bbq. One thing I really wish they had was beef ribs…THAT is true bbq to me…but very hard to find,d nowadays….overall, I would recommend visiting…maybe take out…

I’ve visited today and to be quite honest I was pretty bumped out about my experience and flavors in the brisket and the macaroni. The brisket for starters had no smokey flavor or tenderness. There was quite a lot of lack of flavor in both. The macaroni didn’t quite taste like real cheese which is kinda hard to not get right. Also, no sliced bread was provided and got a couple of sliders at a charge. Sadly I can say this wasn’t up to my standards without comparing it to any of the big guys out there.

The OMG Sheppard’s pie was divine! The Mac n Cheese could be a little cheesier, but overall we had an excellent experience! Going to be thinking about the “Goodness” for days to come!

I just stepped out of this eatery and I can’t help but do a review. All I can say is that I wish I was hungrier so that I could try everything on the menu or order in larger portions.
