Our traveling companions are Texans who know how to smoke a brisket, pulled pork, and chicken. I do a pretty good job myself, but we are always looking for something better, more tender any maybe sweeter. Maybe its just me, but this is nothing like Texas barbeque. The sauce tastes like flavored ketchup. The brisket should be sliced across the grain and no thicker than a quarter inch- not chunks. All the meat was slightly dry, maybe try low and slow smoking. The hot link was good with a nice heat chaser. The mac n cheese is excellent and the slaw has a deliciously unique flavor, maybe apple cidar vinegar? The corn bread is unremarkable. We ordered the 4 meat sampler for $19.95 and had enough meat to feed 4 adults.

Been all over the country even lived in Texas this place has the best BBQ in New England and most of the states. We often take the 4 hr round trip to get their food!

Terrific local BBQ in Bethel, Maine. We drove by several times and the smoker was always going early in the morning and late into the evening. For our first time there, we ordered the 6-Pack to Go, which is billed as two pounds of pork, 6 rolls, large coleslaw, pickles and sauce. For our family of four, we added four orders of cornbread and asked if they could split the order into one pound each of pulled pork and pulled chicken so that we could taste both. They were happy to hear that we wanted to try both and did not miss a beat. We also tried their hot smoked cashews. Everything was delicious and our take-out was ready within minutes after placing our order. This place is definitely worth a stop or even a drive out of your way.

I’m from the south and we don’t burn our pork and call it BBQ. Not sure what the deal was with the beans, tasted terrible. Slaw was brown. Maybe this is how northerners like their food.

Generous portions, great smoke, the pickles were homemade and perfect with the meat. The corn salad was delicious with a hint of fresh basil. Corn bread was a different color, more like hay. Maybe honey sweetened, tasted ok. I ordered 1/2 lb of just pulled pork. Husband purchased the pulled pork sandwich and sides. The sandwich had more meat than my order of just meat. Very generous servings. Rainy day, lots of puddles, no covered seating, we managed to hit a lull and it was so worth it.

Hits the spot! Excellent selection of meats and sides at a great price. Be sure to buy extra meat so that you can have extra for another day. Also on the other side of the shared parking lot is a great little store where you can get some fantastic Maine beers to compliment the meal.

Grabbed 1/2 chicken, brisket, chili, beans, and coleslaw. Everything was delicious. Truly was “Smokin’ Good”, and my wife agreed. Texas BBQ in Maine!

Excellent american barbecue, served from a nice caravan, dining out on picnic tables surrounded by trees and a healthy/organic grocery store.
