I picked up my food and saw the kitchen and should've known i was in trouble. His machines are all covered in dirt and grease. Got the food home to realize he substituted food without telling me and instead of the two hot dogs he gave me one and a burnt sausage...the rest of the food was either charred to a crisp or liquefied into a puddle. The Mac and cheese was hard as a rock and the corn casserole will turn your stomach.....I have no clue how this restaurant turned so quickly. I used to love it but even the BBQ sucks..

I ordered the beef brisket and it was so dry, I choked on it and the bun must’ve been old because it fell apart As soon as I picked it up, the mac & cheese was clumpy and nasty taste, and the potato salad was nasty tasting. I won’t go there again.

The owner is great, but the food… the food is horrible.. the meat is VERY dry and tough to chew ended up just throwing it away (got ribs) Baked beans is about the only edible thing there. Not sure when this food is prepared but it’s not worth it. The building itself stinks like mildew.

I worked an overnight 12 hour shift on just 2 hours of sleep Wednesday night, and when I got home all I could think was how good The Q sounded for my dinner before I went to bed. I stayed up and sent my husband to pick up food, and it was SO worth it! I got a brisket combo with mashed potatoes and beans, and also a pulled pork sandwich. It had been a while since I had eaten here, but it was all even better than I remember!! The meat was so fresh and flavorful, and the potatoes were melt in your mouth delicious! The sauces, all of it was just AMAZING!! My husband said the owner was super friendly and helpful while he was there, he was really impressed with the atmosphere and vibe he got. Overall, a wonderful experience, 10/10, HIGHLY recommend!!

The Q is the best! We love their pulled pork sandwiches with mild BBQ sauce. The Mac and Cheese is awesome too.

GLITTER is FOREVER

This is the third time that we have ordered from Shelby Q.... Each time sides such as corn casserole macaroni mashed potatoes have been very dried out... Even more disappointing is how dry crispy and old the meat is. We have tried, pulled pork, brisket, and shredded chicken. Today we ordered a couple of meals, including pulled pork combo. I'm including a picture of the pulled pork and you can see it is extremely dried out hard to chew this sand is going in the garbage :((

first time trying was today. I had the dog and slaw platter with baked beans, corn casserole and potato salad. this was some of the best food I've had around here. they are very reasonable priced. 10/10 would recommend and go again

I wanted to like this place. The owner seems like a great guy. But folks the food is not good or authentic. I will guarantee the food is not smoked especially the morning of. If so what kind of smoker and what wood? The meat are all dry shredded and crumbly. Why can't I get a nice piece of moist brisket sliced? The food is hiding behind the sauce. Take a trip to smokin Bros for authentic local Q!

This was my 1st time at this business. As a person can see from the stars, I am very impressed with the food and will be returning. I ordered the pick 4 so I could decide using a variety of meats. I had ribs, pulled pork, chicken, and brisket. I also purchased coleslaw.... loved it ! Business open for take out with just a couple tables. I'd highly suggest you stop and vice driving by like I have since they opened.

The guy running this place confuses me. His rules about which sides to get in order to create a platter so that you get a drink and a pickle spear is complicated, to say the least. However, in my opinion, the food is pretty good and the prices are reasonable. I'll continue to eat here.
