I was teetering on that 4th star, but overall I'll give it to them. The food was par, not great, not bad.
The ribs were smokey, but lacking other seasoning, while the brisket was nicely seasoned but somehow less smokey than the ribs, which was weird.

Mac and cheese and beans were okay, I recognize doctored up canned beans when I eat them, but they were done well. The mac was of moderate quality, and needed some salt.

overall, based solely on the food this trip, I'd say 3.9, but the service was great AND they have my favorite soda. so, 4 stars it is.

Backroads Smokin’ BBQ recently catered our wedding. They were absolutely incredible to work with from start to finish. Blaine, Anna, and the whole crew were phenomenal, and everyone raved about the food! Wonderful people, and we will 💯 use them again!!

Cute place. Very family and dog friendly. The staff is amazing and so inviting. My first time there and I felt like it was home. Food tasted as if I was back home in North Carolina.. good place to stop and bring the whole family.

The brisket, pulled pork and ribs were phenomenal. Husband and I have been trying to order from here a few times but when we showed up they were closed because they sold out. I’m so glad we called ahead today and placed an order ticket to reserve our stuff. The food was SO good! Brisket was cooked just like it’s supposed to be! Best BBQ we’ve had in a long time. So everyone, CALL AHEAD!!! That way you know if they’re open or not, and if they are, then place a ticket! And extra thank you to the lovely woman working who brought us some butter cake for our 10yr anniversary! That cake was DELICIOUS! 🤤

always closed because of some sort of scheduling issue, something's wrong with the store, Mother's Day for some reason. if you go back on your Facebook posts 95% of them is post and how you're not open. you closed early on Saturday because of some scheduling thing and then you're close today because you're well pump isn't working? I mean you're running out of excuses of why you're closing early or not opening at all. I've literally given up trying to go there and get a meal

Stopped in for the first time this morning and grabbed a quick breakfast sandwich before a long trip. The brisket melt was FANTASTIC and staff were super friendly. Will be back 100%.
