Amazing Service and Incredible Food from Michael's Backyard BBQ!
Michael's Backyard BBQ was an absolute lifesaver at our event! From the start, they were prompt and respectful of our schedule. We had two food trucks planned, but unfortunately, the second one was completely unprepared to handle the crowd of 100 guests. Michael, being the consummate professional, immediately stepped up and adapted to the situation. Not only did he manage his own flow with ease, but he also picked up the slack and accommodated way more guests than initially expected.
His quickness, attention to detail, and ability to stay on his feet was truly impressive. And let’s not forget the food – the smoked wings were INCREDIBLE! Our entire teaching staff is still raving about the meal days later. Michael’s Backyard BBQ was the highlight of our event, and I highly recommend them for any gathering. You won't be disappointed!
The food's great , no doubt about it. Hit up that truck plenty of times, and it always delivers. The man behind it? Solid dude.
I’ve eaten from this BBQ truck at multiple food truck events. The chicken is amazing and that signature burger he makes is one of the best I’ve had. Staff is friendly and the food presentation is great on Eco friendly disposable food trays. Whenever I see the truck is set up I make a point of grabbing a bite there. Highly recommend giving it a taste. Veteran owned and operated doesn’t hurt either.
Great food!
Best BBQ hands down!
This food truck comes by my place in Weehawken frequently. I was looking forward to trying a meal here but was left disappointed. I ordered a half pound wagyu burger which was supposed to come with 'beef, pepperjack cheese, lettuce, tomato, onions, housemade BBQ sauce' as per the menu displayed on the truck and also on the website. Unfortunately my order was missing the lettuce, tomato and onions. The beef patty tasted pretty good but it was quite greasy and the burger was soggy as a result. I love supporting local business, especially veteran owned, but felt disappointed that I didn't get what I fully paid for, especially given it was a pricey ~ $20 burger with taxes.
Always wanted to try this place but I’ll tell you. It’s disgusting. Dirty plates, dirty cups, dirty place rude people. Something was telling me just to walk away and I should’ve listened to myself. This is a horrible, horrible place to eat. Health inspection needs to come ASAP. Bugs everywhere the. look like they never cleaned. STAY AWAY
Love their BBQ wings, the brisket is to die for.
Amazing brisket !!! Food was perfect and fresh. Will definitely come back again
Terrible place to order. Waited 2hrs at the Meadowlands for ribs and brisket. Super overwhelmed, they can't keep up, get the f off the market if you can't serve the public.
Restaurantji Recommends
By far the best ribs!!!
I must say I really enjoyed the "chef's special" ????
Amazing brisket !!! Food was perfect and fresh. Will definitely come back again
I had the blandest mac and cheese from this truck. At the bare minimum I was expecting salt and there wasn’t even any of that.
Ordered bbq smoked wing and they were utterly disgusting couldn’t get thru the meal and they didn’t even have lemonade to replenish me after it. S soon as I got home I threw it all up
