BBQ was as good as before! Everyone in the family had a BBQ sandwich regular. All seemed to enjoy. This is our second stop, but this time was at the second location and was not as great as the first visit a few years back. On two to staff the one location, service was lacking some.

Our BBQ sandwich & fries were awesome but the servers were very rude and no A/C & no fans. If they just had some ceiling fans with some air moving it wouldn’t have been so bad. Can’t imagine how hot it is in July. Maybe if the servers were cooler they would be nicer.

I was there a while back and got pulled pork sandwiches. They were good, but I was a little turned off because there were flies in and around the display case and there was dust and dirt around the counter. Hopefully the problem is resolved because I would like to see this business do well. I will give them another try. If I go in to order and observe the same issue I will just leave without placing an order.

So I usually really do not like to leave reviews, I was absolutely disappointed last night. We ordered take out, the price came out to $73, we couldn't figure out how? When we picked up food the prices did not match the menu, we ordered 10 wings that were supposed to be a $1 each, but they changed it to $2 a piece $20 for wings, which I wouldn't have been so upset if they weren't repulsive, they had blood veins running through out each one they were red in side, I understand one or two but all 10 wings. My husband ordered a BBQ platter, the ribs were so tough he couldn't bite through them, my daughter ordered the chicken tenders and they came out as odd chicken nuggets with a bad odor, I ordered a brisket sandwich- did not come with a side, so I ordered order rings, and how disappointing it was. See picture below, this was my $15 dollar sandwich? Legit a small burger bun 3 small pieces of brisket? I really wouldn't have cared about the price of the food if it wasn't inedible and awful. I had to run out and get my family something different.

We ordered fish, shrimp ,coleslaw, & greenbeans. The fish was not cooked all the way, the shrimp were over done, the coleslaw was just cabbage covered with mayo (no taste) and the greenbeans were mushy. I was very disappointed, the place need an entire makeover, from the food to the inside!

A hole in the wall type of place where the owner will also help you through menu and take your orders, was very nice. Brisket was the best we’ve had in South Carolina and smoked beans were a great side option. Mac N Cheese was also very tasty and fresh. Loved the old school ambiance, definitely will go back on future trips to Myrtle Beach

This place is great. We had the brisket and a rack of ribs. Delicious. Definitely not like most of the barbecue places that I have been to. Juicey brisket and ribs. Cooked to perfection in a different style than I am used to. I'll be back!

flies cold food slow service greasy no AC says $1 per wing, then bill came and it said $2. when we asked, server said oh just changed prices, haven't updated the menu, and she forgot to mention it when we ordered them. and the wings sucked, even if they were free.

We ordered from Pop Pop's today or tried to. No one would answer the phone so my wife drove to their location to order in person. She was greeted by the statement that they didn't have any ribs or pulled pork (this is on a Saturday at 6 pm). She ordered brisket, I had asked for their Southwest steak bowl. They said they really didn't offer steak, that maybe they should change the menu. I had the chicken bowl instead. It had essentially no seasoning or flavor. My wife didn't say much about the brisket. I tried it, it wasn't as good as what she fixes at home.

Really enjoyed the smoky beans!! Brisket was very good. My husband liked the pulled pork. Owner was friendly; we felt it was authentic.
I didn't take pictures because it smelled really good and we couldn't hold out. We had ribs and brisket. They were both really good. The ribs are smoked for 7 hours and were a thing of beauty. The brisket was tender enough that it could be cut with a fork. The sides are really good, but the meat is the star of the show. The folks there were super friendly, and the service was good. Its located in a small strip and may not look fancy, but you'll regret not eating here.

with a caveat: fries were pre-cooked and then dipped in fryer. green beans-cold. pulled pork-cold. brisket-just warm. place changed ownership and is going downhill.

I would recommend everything . Been there twice love the pull pork best buns you can eat melts in your mouth.

Ate in right at noon. Brisket and ribs looked and tasted like “leftovers”. Fries were soggy/burnt/yesterday’s? Canned baked beans, really? Very disappointed. Dirty, dingy, sticky place smelled of burnt deep fryer. Sat with a friendly cock roach on the wall. We will not return. Maybe we went at a “bad time”? Waitress was nice though she forgot part of our order.

A trip to Myrtle Beach wouldn't be complete without a visit here. A hole-in-the-wall eatery in an out-of-the-way strip mall would never have caught our attention four years ago without the reviews (thanks TA). Now it's become a "have to" stop (at least once) each stay. Our server, Matthew, was friendly and attentive. Though plates are available upon request, we enjoy the butcher paper format. They still make a mean brisket, great ribs and satisfying baked beans and potato salad. The only negative was that this time, they were out of their chicken bog (which we enjoyed the next day at their Murrells Inlet location); as well as not having their complimentary pork rinds. All and all though, a visit here is still a "must".
