Hometown BBQ is a mixed bag. We ordered two plates takeout. One was the grilled chicken breast lemon pepper seasoned with fried green tomatoes and collard greens. The second plate ordered was the half smoked chicken with broccoli and Brussel sprouts. The sides come out the winner here hands down! The fried green tomatoes are better by far than across the street at Good Ole Boys. However, the meat at this barbecue location is absolutely horrible! The chicken breast for the chicken breast plate was a nice piece of meat and and juicy however, it was also coded in a ton of some kind of nasty greasy oil! I had to literally wash it off before I could eat it. Again thankfully the sides were delicious. As for the smoked chicken plate the brussel sprouts were perfect spot on. He didn't get the broccoli he wanted instead it was a mix of carrots and cauliflower and broccoli and he doesn't care for carrots at all and isn't really a fan of cauliflower and it was extremely overcooked like maybe it was reheated leftovers from yesterday he said it was very rubbery and absolutely inedible. Then the smoked chicken was a bit on the dry side and he said it was so salty it tasted like it had been marinated for 48 hours in saltwater before they did anything with it. I tried a piece of it without the skin and he's right it was salty as hell on the inside! Really gross! The lady taking the order was super nice. Also when I called last night to verify they were open on Sunday because we're from out of town I was told to open at 10:30 but when we got there at 10:30 the door was open but a guy that was there an older fellow told us they didn't open till 11:00 and we'd have to wait. So we waited in the parking lot no problem, but it's a shame that the employee we talked with on the phone the night before I didn't actually know what time they opened. :-( if I was back through here again at a meal time I might would stop for a veggie plate with a fried green tomatoes, Brussel sprouts, and collard greens if they offered that sort of option. Their menu doesn't indicate they do. Otherwise I wouldn't eat any of the meat from here. And while I sat waiting I watched the youngest girl there sniffling in the Cook Area like she had a cold or was sick and picking her nose and sticking her fingers in her mouth. Thank God she put on gloves before she handled anybody's food but she didn't wash her hands. So someone's review saying they got sick after eating here might be legit and the employees definitely need some Public Health Training

Stopped in on the way back from Cheaha State Park. Service and food was awesome. Got the BBQ plate with baked beans and fried green tomatoes. Food came out hot and they kept my to -go order under the warmer until I was ready. ❤️

I went in at 8pm and I felt bad but I was hungry and home from work late. I could tell the lady taking orders was beat and had had a day but let me tell ya. Absolute best place to eat in Childersburg. Burger was perfect. Mac n cheese exactly how it should be. Fried tomatoes sliced thinly and crisped to perfection. Thank God for Hometown and Roll Tide!!!

It's a great place to get some very good BBQ. With a small-town atmosphere.
The BBQ tasted like it had lighter fluid itself poured straight onto it. Not too mention it was completely charred.
Food was great! Service was great! Ribs were outstanding!
