About Uncle Bob’s BBQ

Uncle Bob's BBQ, also known as "Crazy Grandma's," offers outstanding service and delicious BBQ. The food is so good that even those who prefer seafood will have no complaints. The brisket is a must-try, and their pulled pork mac n cheese is a hit with kids. The rib plate is also highly recommended. Customers praise the tenderness and flavor of the brisket, pulled pork, and ribs, which are smoked to perfection. The chili beans are especially loved, and the variety of dishes includes pulled pork, pork ribs, beef ribs, and sides like mac and cheese and cornbread. The friendly staff creates a family vibe, making groups feel welcomed and satisfied. Despite an outdated decor, the quality of the food and the welcoming atmosphere keep customers coming back. Many visitors have noted that the BBQ compares favorably to top places in the Carolinas and Virginia, and some even discovered this high-quality BBQ during their visit to Hawai'i. With a great atmosphere and excellent food, it’s a spot where people enjoy watching Sunday NFL on five TVs and look forward to returning.

Brisket is out of the world delicious!! In a town where we really have to be aware of cost for dining out, the plates are generous and honest for the price. The two sides I’ve had, beans and coleslaw, are very yummy and the BBQ was in the beans. I’ve had the combo plate twice and I’ll be back many times. Keep it up!
