Hog Wild Pit Bar-B-Q

I’ve always known Hog Wild for its consistency—good food, clean facilities, and dependable service. Unfortunately, my recent visit to the Woodlawn location was a major disappointment.
After getting my food, I went to take a drink of my Sprite and immediately noticed large chunks of mold from the ice machine floating in my cup. Curious (and concerned), I checked the soda dispenser and found that the nozzles on both the Sprite and Dr. Pepper had visible mold inside them as well. Looking at the machine, it was clear it hadn’t been cleaned in quite some time.
I tried to move past that and enjoy my sandwich, but it was bland and lacked the usual quality I’ve come to expect from Hog Wild. Even before receiving my food, the customer service was lackluster—the employees seemed disengaged and unwelcoming.
Overall, this experience was far below the standards I associate with Hog Wild. I truly hope management at this location takes action to address these serious cleanliness and service issues, because the brand’s reputation deserves better.

IMO not very good BBQ I didn't care for the ribs I personally don't like ribs that are wet (have BBQ sauce). Also the ribs weren't cut individually and they expected you to cut them with plastic knife and forks. Potato salad was something I would expect from Walmart. Just overall not a good .

What a great bbq place pretty cheap too. Good for a quick eat. I recommend for anyone out of towners to visit for sure.

My pulled pork sandwich was very good and I liked the curly fries as well. I was sad that the only diet pop option is Diet Coke, which I loathe, but the iced tea was good.

Been going to this hog wild for 5 years now and the last three times just been horrible. Ribs aren’t sauced like they used to be. Everything was cold last time and ribs wasn’t good at all. Then this time sides was good but ribs not sauced odd flavor then the side of sauce looks old as heck. Guess it’s time to not support it anymore

This is good chain style Bar-B-Q, nothing out of the ordinary. Reasonably good with good service and prices.
If you want Bar-B-Q, stay away from the Opened Face Sandwich, there is nothing Bar-B-Q about it.

Thank you Matt and the Hog Wild team for helping me out of a bind - our catering order was canceled without notifying me, Hog Wild was able to get me an order for 25 people in about 15 minutes. We had plenty of food and it went over great with the group. Thank you again, I really appreciate how quick your turn around was!

Fast food bbq… it’s a thing now. I wanted to love this place just because all of the reviews but I’d give it a solid 3/5.

Ordered a chicken bbq sandwich and hot link sandwich. There was more bread than meat but honestly, I wasn’t really bothered by that much. The chicken was moist and the bbq sauce was okay. The sausage was fine but it lacked depth of flavor. I did order a side of their spicy bbq sauce to try and it did help flavor up the hot link sandwich quite a bit.

The real winner here for me was the fries. They taste just like McDonalds and I’ve NEVER had anyone’s fries taste like McD’s!!! I devoured every last one of them! lol 🍟

I’m going to give them another whirl before I head out because I feel like you can’t really judge a good bbq place until you’ve had their brisket. This TX gal knows her brisket! I’ll be back to update my review at that time. I’m thinking I’ll try the brisket baked potato - doesn’t that sound yum!!?

We used to go a lot as a family and pick it up. It was very good but over the past 5-7 years it’s just been terrible. The pulled pork is dry, ribs are undercooked with the membrane still on, sides are mediocre at best. Price isn’t terrible but the foods so bad that it’s a waste of money. It’s a shame, used to be good and it’s horrid. Avoid at all costs!!

I always get treated good. Thanks

Great food . 50 for 3 meals, no drinks.
