The customer service was 10/10. Extremely responsive and easy to work with. We will definitely be back! Thankyou for the best food!! I would highly recommend!“

“Stopped in from out of state. Tony and all the employees went above and beyond since the second we walked in the door from explaining the menu to making sure the kid menus had tattoos and then the mission behind the name. Definitely stop in and check them out. Food was great and the service and mission are better.“

“Very good! Great menu options. Definitely will be back!“

“Best BBQ you can find!“

“B.E. Barbecue Everything is exactly the kind of small business that keeps a community alive and fed in all the right ways.

I stumbled across this spot and ended up finding what I can only describe as a true hidden gem. I ordered the chopped pulled pork barbecue sandwich with mac and cheese, and I’m still thinking about it hours later. I’m a native of North Carolina, so I’m no stranger to good barbecue, but this was the best pulled pork I’ve had in decades, and I say that with my full chest. The meat was tender, juicy, perfectly seasoned, and the smoke flavor hit that rare sweet spot between bold and balanced. The mac and cheese was the perfect comfort-food side: rich, creamy, and clearly made with care, not out of a box.

What really stuck with me, though, was the experience. I watched the grill master pull hot, fresh pork ribs straight off the grill, and the aroma that filled the air actually hit me with a wave of nostalgia. For a moment, I was right back at family cookouts in North Carolina — that’s how powerful that smell and flavor combo was. It wasn’t just food; it was memory.

As someone running for Congress, I talk a lot about how vital small businesses are to our local economy. B.E. Barbecue Everything is exactly what I’m talking about; a hardworking local owner, real craft on the grill, and a product that keeps people coming back. After one visit, they’ve earned a customer for life. And if my political career pans out, D.C. (Dennis, the owner) will always have my business.

Don’t just take my word for it — go try it yourself. Support a fantastic small business, treat yourself to some top-tier barbecue, and thank me later.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ / 5 – flawless.“

From their raw oysters & steamed clams to their juicy & stacked pit beef sandwiches and reubens to their golden brown delicious fried chicken to all their awesome crab deals~ they have something for everyone. Plus they are locally owned and their staff makes you feel like one of the family. And oh yeah~ their rich & creamy crab dip!“
