Hickory River Smokehouse

Tonight I went to this restaurant and picked up order to go. We tried the pulled chicken sliders, pulled pork, sliders, chicken, wings, and a side of chili. I can’t think of anything that they could’ve done to provide me with the most outstanding experience of about any restaurant I’ve been to. The owner was there along with a few family member members that make this establishment a place that everyone should try and I would highly suggest this make your go to barbecue place. Ziggy knows exactly how to run a restaurant and and smoke the best barbecue. I think I’ve had, and I must say I’ve had a hell of a lot. It’s just good. I would say heck with the nationwide chains and recommend that we keep everything local, plus it’s a lot better

DELICIOUS!!! Stopped here on a road trip for lunch and had some of the best brisket and pulled chicken I've ever had. Very kind and knowledgeable staff.

Baked potato was delicious!

Not a fan of this place. Portions are horrible. The quality of taste is nothing to brag about. Not impressed with the microwave in the dining area.

Excellent food and great service. The Manager was very nice. I will certainly return!! Thank you.

Great food. Some of the best brisket I have ever eaten!

Great Food, Incredible Service, couldn’t have been happier! Thanks Again Hickory River, you never fail!

Great people. Zig is a pleasure and his daughters are great

This is not even close to Texas BBQ. This is the worst Texas bbq. Meats had no flavor, meats were dry. Service was great. My kids or dog didn’t even eat the nasty brisket. Try another bbq joint.

We had a group of 10. We had a great experience . The food was fantastic the service was fast, curtious, and friendly. Thankyou Hickory River

Brisket platter was terrible. It had a lot of fat in it and was very chewy. Thankfully, I had the instinct to purchase a sandwich, as well. It was lean and edible. It was an expensive lesson.

The bbq here is the absolute worst I have ever had.

Was passing through town and was in the mood for bbq and this places showed to be right off the highway which was good

The brisket is not good at all, almost like eating premade meats then rewarded

Pulled pork was to salty and chewy

They topped it with a nasty sauce which was overpowering

My sides were mashed potatoes with gravy, ok to me and my other side was corn, definitely canned

Corn bread was ok, no complaints

Pass this place unless you absolutely have too, but there are options in the area

Wasn’t a fan of the pickled coleslaw.. but the scalloped potatoes and pulled chicken sandwich with honey bbq sauce were really good. Service was quick.

Best damn BBQ I've had in a long time. Everything is tender and juicy. The potato salad is great and the ranch beans are to die for!
