I spoke to Tiffany today about this restaurant and I cannot wait until they reopen so I can take a special trip to Saginaw just for this! Seems like it's owned by great people who make great food.

Best bbq in the world! I have lived in tx and all over the country. You cannot find better bbq. All the sides i have had were amazing. Only bad thing is the hundred mile drive, but it is worth it.

Restaurant was relatively empty, only one other table taken. Service was good. Had chicken and ribs. Wife had triple threat with pulled pork and pulled chicken. All the meats were good, but heavily sauced. Peach cobbler had plenty of peaches, but little "cobble". Ordered pulled pork to go without the sauce. Perfect tasing meat. Ask for no or less sauce to let the meat speak for itself.

Stopped in for lunch and the place was empty but I am told they do a ton of carry out, anyway the food was wonderful and came out fast the fries were fresh, the Mac and cheese was great. All the meat and I had a combo platter was very tasty even the corn bread was good. Boss had a sandwich and it was on a pretzel bun he loved it. I will return. Also nothing to do with the food but this place had the cleanest and nicest rest rooms of any restaurant I have ever been in.

The catfish was good. The "barbeque" was not bad food, but not decent barbecue. The mac and cheese, potato salad and cabbage were good. The beans were very sweet and extremely saucy. Cornbread muffin was dry and sweet.We waited quite a while to place our orders and get our drinks. There were a couple large parties dining when we arrived. Food arrived pretty quickly. Had to ask for sauces, flatware, salt and pepper.

We were just passing through town and found this place on google and thought with the ratings it was worth a shot. We got brisket and catfish both with Mac and cheese and green beans. Mac and cheese was very reminiscent of Stofers microwave Mac and green beans went largely untouched. Brisket was rating 2/10 by the hubby but the catfish was actually quite tasty. Over all wouldn't visit again.

I have been here twice. Wow the bbq rib tips are out of this world. It was such a good dinner that I cant order anything else. I Have to have gluten free so I order the collard greens(holy smoke, so delicious.) and excellent fries. I have lived and traveled around the country and I do not recall better bbq(55 years old) anywhere. Only problem is i live 90 miles away. I cannot wait to return!

I would like to say that the food and service was great, but since we never got waited on, I can't. I told the owner that I saw her on Under the Radar Michigan and that was why we came. She told us to sit where we wanted. Someone brought us menus after about 5 minutes and that was the last time anyone came to our table. We watched at least 4 different groups of people come in and and get waited on and still no one came to even take a drink order. It was pretty clear that we were not going to get waited on, so we left. My son loves good BBQ and I was excited to take him and my granddaughter to the area the I grew up in for what looked like on TV, was good food. We should have a brought a camera crew with us and we may have actually been able to order some. We succeeded in raising our children to be non-predudiced, but I feel we were discriminated against because we are not persons of color. This makes me sad and disappointed. I wish you success, but I cannot recommend your restaurant after our experience there. ?

Very good BBQ and sides! We will be back. Only downside was corn muffin was hard and had to ask for BBQ sauce, as it was not on table. The place could use some decoration also.

This is the best place I've found so far for bbq ribs, soooo tender they melt in your mouth (and a little on your hands)Parking: Baldwin's is in the old Texan restaurant on E.Holland Rd,(M-46) Saginaw Michigan
