I thought the food was good but not great. It was a good price by today's standards.

Put this on your list. Based on google reviews, we ventured out. The servings here are gigantic. You will have left overs. We went late in the day, close to 7pm. They were out of several items, as they are made daily and are quite popular. Order ahead is available. I recommend ordering early in the day so you have more options. We got meat over two large naked potatoes, comes with Mac and cheese and a corn cob. Plenty of food. The delightful smell from the parking lot is all you need to know. Go check it out.

Was not as good as I hoped. The meats were dry the sauce did not help it was not so good. It wasn't awful just not as good as I was told it would be. Average / Mediocre BBQ.

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit here to enjoy some barbecue. I tried their pulled pork and their brisket. Both were quite tasty. I’d say the pork was the better of the two. The brisket was just a little dry, admittedly I did get the lean and not the fatty so it should be a bit drier. The staff was very friendly and the table arrangement was neat. I got to sit at a table with two other gentleman who were a pleasure to be around. I’d definitely go back here if in the area. I’d just take some chips with me next time. I could not eat any of their sides due to my food restrictions but the barbecue here is worthy of another visit if I’m in town again.

I was excited to try this place. The brisket was super dry. The pulled pork had almost no flavor. When I walked in the guy working the front turned around, almost disappointed to see a customer he had to serve and said “what do you want?” under his breath. I laughed out loud. Such a bummer to spend over $30 on two mediocre meats with bad service. A chain is better than this place…and there are a few close by.

Awesome Texas BBQ. They consistently have the best brisket in the valley. The ribs and turkey are equally awesome. I know many folks love the Swachos but I prefer the meats by themselves because they are done so well. The sauces are also good. I really like the vinegar one. This is a staple of the Provo/Orem area.

We love BamBam’s. We did a barbecue restaurant tour a while back to see, which was our favorite and Bam Bans is definitely on top. The pit masters Bam Bams studied in Austin with the head pitmaster at Franklin‘s, which was voted top barbecue place in Texas by the Texas monthly magazine several years in a row. So this is like Franklin‘s Junior. They use the same recipes according to one employee. Highly recommend the brisket.

The food was to over priced for the amount we got all the sauces are to salty or to much vinegar, potato salad bags to much black pepper and the cashier left me at mid sentence to help another customer.

Excellent bbq. Meat and Sauce top tier. Didn't love the potato salad (mustard based, not my thing). Facilities (restrooms, drink machine) a little janky.
