Looks good. Not sure how it tastes.

Stopped in to try it for the first time and even though they had no Tri-Tip this week and were out of MAC and Cheese what we did have was delicious. My wife and I tried the Rib plate with potato salad, brisket bowl over baked beans, corn bread, jalapeno cheddar sausage and chili relleno sausage. The BBQ sauce has good flavor sweet and tangy and paired well with the ribs brisket and sausages. The beans were thick and rich, the potato salad creamy and the corn bread was delicious! Outside eating only but there is some shade trees and umbrellas. They could use a good combo plate on the menu but we pieced a delicious BBQ spread together with what they had! The two people we interacted with were very cool and polite. Definitely worth stopping in for some BBQ.

My first time trying it and it was so good ! I got the ribs plate and my boyfriend got a brisket sandwich .. They were out of cole slaw 😫 lol which I love my ribs with a side of cole slaw , but no worries cause the Mac and cheese made up for it !! 😋. My only complaint would be the potato salad could be mashed a little more .. but both mine and my boyfriend’s plate was so good !! I highly recommend this place , we will definitely be coming back .

I thought the meat had a fishy taste to it, but couldn’t figure out why. Another person on here said that the meat they had tasted old, so I’m assuming they don’t always have fresh meat.

Be sure to follow up with their social media to see when they will be open or closed. I made the mistake of visiting during one of their catering days. They do seem to run out of meats by 2 PM (I visited another time when all they had was brisket, but I wanted to return to try all of the meats). So after the 3rd attempt, I finally got to go as soon as they opened. In which they already had a line forming. I ordered the lil hoss to try a bit of everything. Pictured you see sausage, tri-tip, ribs, brisket, potato salad, mac&cheese, & cornbread. I did try all of the meats before adding on the bbq sauce. This is just my preferred way of eating it. The tri-tip was too well done for my liking. The ribs were very mid and did not have much flavor. Both sausages easily crumbled when picked up with a fork. I do like that the sides and bbq sauce are made from scratch. However, the potato salad was quite sour. If you like sour, you’d probably like it. The Mac & cheese was pretty good, but texture-wise it seemed almost as if it was leftovers from the previous day. The cornbread (which is also made from scratch) was pretty good, but a bit undercooked and mushy as a previous reviewer has stated. As for the bbq sauce, the flavor is good but it does taste mostly like ketchup. Unlike most bbq sauces that have more of a smoky taste. The only meat that I did enjoy was the brisket. It was very tender as others have stated. Overall, I give this place a solid 6/10. Would I go out of my way to try this place again on purpose ? Probably not, but if I was invited out to eat here I would definitely just get a brisket sandwich. I heard raving reviews about this place and had to try it out for myself. I am a cook, so I do nitpick when going out to eat. I do think this place is good to people around the area (considering there’s nothing nearby), but it’s not the best bbq I’ve had.

We just had Slick Fork out to cater a retirement party. Adam & Joann were great to work with. And even doubled my order last minute with no problems. It was our first time trying their bbq. The brisket, chicken, beans, mac n cz and peach cobbler were Exelent! Definitely must try.

My name is Jorge and I just have to tell everyone the slick fork barbecue in Hughson, is by far one of the best barbecue places in the entire area. I know my barbecue, I've had it in Texas, Tennessee, Kansas City, and St. Louis, as well as Georgia, and Slick fork BBQ is up there with the big dogs. Ribs cooked to perfection and a really good sauce that goes with it. But you don't really need barbecue sauce, they know what they're doing, and it is well worth the drive and the price. keep up the great work.

Ribs were amazing. I didn't really care for the bbq beans. Wish they would not put bell pepper in them. It ruins the taste of the beans. Outside seating only, and it's very limited.

Usually good but today I ordered a slab for pick up and got a burnt greasy mess. Not consistent. The corn bread was doughy also.
