Got a chance to stop in to Fuel this weekend when my parents came to town. We’d been wanting to try it for a while so we went all out.
Staff was friendly and provided recommendations for sides. Our order included a full rack of ribs and half chicken. The meats came with cornbread and we grabbed six sides: potato salad, coleslaw, green beans with bacon, Mac and cheese, collard greens, and bbq beans.
It’s hard to decide our favorite because all were delicious. The Mac and cheese & bbq beans were some of the best I’ve ever had. The ribs were cooked to perfection and fall off the bone good. I really enjoyed the sauces as well. The mustard sauce and sweet sauce are very nice compliments to the meat.
The space is very cool - connected to a bar - so you could sit in the restaurant, in the bar or outside on the patio.
Very cool spot - I’m very impressed. Will definitely be back to try more.

Came in for lunch and it was great! Brisket was great as well as the pulled pork! I had “The Bus Stop” which was great and the smoked Mac and cheese was great as well! Nice staff and clean restaurant!

The brisket and pulled pork were great. My daughter said the pulled chicken was great too.
Great location and venue with outdoor seating as well as a space with indoor stage and sizable bar. A great context for hanging out and enjoying music, people, and the weather. It is not a destination for foodies. The pulled chicken and pulled pork were both very dry and lacked any hint of flavor. Would not order either of those again or come for the bbq. Unfortunately the food lived up to the name and really only served as fuel.

Brisket was unfortunately very dry and overcooked today, most of the time it is juicy and moist. Also the girls answering the phone always seem grouchy.

There are plenty of BBQ places in the area and I have eaten at most of them. Fuel is the best by far, their tasty meats and sides are sure to please. The ribs, pulled pork or chicken, brisket, burnt ends are all good. That smoked mac and cheese is smokin'. After getting your feed on visit The Alley next door for libations and if later in day live music as well.

Stopped in with my German shepherd and had the burn ends that was smothered in sauce I'm guessing to hid the tasteless flavor of the meat. It came with piece of cornbread that was very dry. I had hoped for a better experience.

Ended up stopping at this spot because we wanted barbecue for lunch and found this on the map. We saw a good reviews and they definitely don't lie. Frank and Caitlynne treat you like You're a Gaston their home. She made the banana pudding fresh from scratch and it was absolutely amazing so you have to get it if you're a banana fan.
Best ribs I have had in a long time!

First time trying Fuel and were a little skeptical from the reviews however me and my husband both enjoyed everything. The chicken was a little dry but a little sauce on it and it was good. The cashier took our order but didn't seem too enthused to be working. We will be back!

We had an all day training yesterday. You guys delivered a full on lunch/dinner buffet to my job that checked ALL THE BOXES! We had close to 75+ people to feed and everybody needed a nap when they left the table. From the juicy brisket to the color of the potatoe salad and the corn bread Johnny cake....EVERYTHING was worthy of a Soul Food Sunday feast. We will be back! Summit Fire Security says THANK YOU!!!

I am in LOVE with the brisket here, it is stand alone on it's own, however, I am a saucy lady and dare I say, it is even better with the sweet sauce on top. Served with a nice buttered Cornbread and sweet tea, and nothing more needs to be said!
