Swinging Door BBQ is a fantastic find for barbecue lovers. Their tri tip, brisket, and links are all awesome, and the brisket 50/50 is a must-try. The ribs are delicious and the meats are tender with a smoky BBQ flavor. The sides, including potato salad, baked beans, and coleslaw, have received mixed reviews. While some find the garlic mashed potatoes bland, the side salad stands out with a huge portion that can serve as two meals. This small BBQ joint may not have indoor seating, but its comfy patio area makes up for it, even though the view overlooks a gas station. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and welcoming, serving up flavorful food quickly, making it a great spot to visit. Swinging Door BBQ is perfect for anyone craving authentic, mouth-watering BBQ, even if the prices are a bit on the expensive side.
