I see a lot of people complaining and in all honesty I don't know how to even make any of it,so I can't judge it. I don't like baked beans, potato salad or slaw . The pulled pork is really good I think. All I can say is you just have to try it. I'm 2 doors down if you wanna drop off some free samples lol.

They have some of the best BBQ in McMinnville,TN it is a little pricey but that’s to be expected with inflation. I will be back .

$14.00 for a 1/4 cup of held over dried out pulled pork on walmart old tortillas, runny, watered down sour cream and some kind of fake runny cheese.
I ordered my Dad ($14.00) a pulled pork sandwich, that didn't even resemble the menu photo, with "baked"beans out of a can, and potato salad that he said wasn't even good enough to eat.
My friends paid $20.00 for a"rib" plate that had 1/2 of 1/4 rack..4 1/2 cut ribs.
THUMBS DOWN.

Wish, I could have gave a better review, but $19 for 3 small bone ribs and 2 bags of chips. Come on man! ?

My husband and I stopped by today after reading the many wonderful reviews online and viewing the photos of various products.My first impression was that the location for this spot is in pretty bad shape, but some of the best places are unassuming. We continued up to the truck and were quickly greeted by a lovely woman ready to take our order.I quickly noticed that the prices here were fairly high, which isn't uncommon for BBQ joints. However, 12 dollars is quite steep for a pulled pork sandwich and 2 sides, especially when comparing to competitors in the area, as well as higher market areas. There was a bit of a wait, but nothing too excessive.We retrieved our food once our device alerted us it was ready. Here's where I feel both myself and my husband were disappointed. The baked beans were very clearly canned beans with pork added to them, no love, no thought, just something quickly thrown together. The potato salad, was tasty, but nothing special. The pork sandwiches were underwhelming, the pork was pretty dry, there was a pretty small amount of barbecue sauce on the sandwiches, and it was fairly lackluster.I had nachos, again, nothing to rave about, but they're nachos, I didn't expect too much.Our total was a bit over 28 dollars in total, for 2 people.The positive notes, the pork had a decent smokey flavor, and the coleslaw was good as well.For the price, the portions were inadequate, as well as the quality and care put into preparation. For 12 dollar pulled pork sandwiches, at least put thought into a quality bun or bread, and better quality ingredients overall. Clearly I can't say exactly what ingredients were used by the business, but the taste speaks for itself. I don't mean my comments as negative, this barbecue was not bad, go and try it for yourself.I can't comment on the sauce as we were given very minimal sauce. I wonder if this was to showcase the smokey flavor profile. If so, please consider giving sauce cups on the side of the sandwich so that customers can get an adequate amount for their product. Many other barbecue joints do this and it is so appreciated, even the best barbecue places I have visited have served a couple of dry batches and the sauce goes a long way.To the owner if my review is seen, I hope that your business prospers and I encourage anyone to go and try it for yourself. The lady behind the window was very sweet and made it worth just trying.To add to owner response, my issue with your price is that your local competitors offer not only better quality food, but also location. That isn't my main issue, barbecue is typically expensive, but the price of the food in comparison to quality doesn't match.This was our first visit, so we gave the benefit of the doubt based on prior reviews. Had we not gotten our food and left, yes we would have asked for more sauce because it was absolutely miniscule. As far as the beans, yes canned beans are used often, but it didn't seem much was added to enhance the flavor, aside from throwing in some pork. And I did note that the potato salad was tasty, but it just wasn't something especially great. There wasn't anything that stood out for us here.

Parking: There isn't really a parking lot, small area in front of the food truck, stairs leading up to the truck were in pretty poor shape, though that's probably not the responsibility of this business owner in this situation.

Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair accessible.

My wife and daughter and I stopped by the Bad Boys BBQ stand at the Warren County fair saturday evening. And I was so very disappointed. We ordered our food. And sat for 45 mins waiting. Then mine and my wife's food arrived. My BBQ sandwich was cold and bun soggy. The fries were cold as well. My wife's food was the same way we returned her fries for fresh hot fries. But she didn't even get her whole order either. She ordered the BBQ plate with beans and home fries, the same as my daughter did. My daughter that ordered at the same time we did. Didn't get her food at all. They hadn't even started fixing it. They did refund my daughters money. And the money for the fries on my wife's plate. So as we got up to leave, the fresh fries had just showed up. Sowith that said, I won't be going back to this booth this year. Hard to see them doing any better on a very busy night. If they couldn't keep up on a slow night. The wait staff did their best to accommodate, but it was out of their control.

Ate at yalls food booth tonight at the fair and I had the home loaded fries and it was actually really good but idk if it was worth $14. Family of 4 was 47.00 that seems like a lot for what we got. However the food was amazing so no complaints there ?
