This is great southern BBQ. Try the banana pudding!
Best BBQ in the area. Do yourself a favor and try it.
the bbq burger oiled me up
Best Pulled Pork I have ever had! Dog friendly too!
I got the pork loaded potato and he got the brisket plate. He was happy with his. My potato was undercooked and barely room temperature. Cheese was not melted and margarine came in a tub and didn’t melt when I put it on. I had to use plastic fork and knife to cut the potato enough to be able to eat it. I added bbq sauce to my pork and then put the pork in my potato. Also on last bite I found a bone in my meat and it wasn’t a bone from Pork, so it seemed like there was some cross contamination on a cutting board or something. The flavor was good, but execution was lacking. We got there 30 minutes before close, so that could be why the quality of mine was less than desirable. Also felt rushed out. We were the last ones in there. As soon as we left, they locked up and lights were out. We left right at closing, but we shouldn’t have felt like hey we’re rushing us out. Owner was very nice. Enjoyed meeting him.
It was an okay place. I really didn't see much to write home about. I have had better barbecue at other places. But when you hear the locals bragging about it, you just have to try it out.
If you’re looking for a place that serves up soul-satisfying barbecue with a side of genuine Southern hospitality, look no further than Fat Boys Barbecue. This local gem has been serving the community since the late 1990s, and it’s clear why they’ve stood the test of time—consistency, flavor, and heart.
From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted like family. The staff is always kind, welcoming, and incredibly attentive. Whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth, they make you feel right at home. That sense of community and service shines through in every aspect of the dining experience.
At the heart of it all is the owner—a wonderful person who truly cares about the quality of the food and the impact his business has on the community. His dedication is evident not only in the delicious menu but in the way Fat Boys supports and serves its neighbors.
Now, let’s talk about the ribs—my absolute favorite. They’re exceptional every single time. Tender, smoky, and just the right amount of seasoning, they fall off the bone and melt in your mouth. It’s easy to see why they’ve become a local favorite.
The menu is packed with variety, so there’s something for everyone—from pulled pork to smoked chicken and hearty sides that complete the meal. Whether you’re craving a quick bite or a full barbecue feast, Fat Boys delivers every time.
If you’re ever in the area and craving top-notch BBQ served with a smile, Fat Boys Barbecue is the spot. It’s more than just a restaurant—it’s a part of the community, and once you visit, you’ll keep coming back.

The BBQ pork was excellent as was the sauce. I also enjoyed the baked beans. I thought the potato salad was a bit salty.
Hot and delicious! I loved being able to sit out by the creek. Super friendly too :)
