I saw this restaurant on a reel and I knew I had to go! It was a great day date location! Sonya took great care of us and explained everything to us in detail and we appreciated it being first-timers!! Of course, we grabbed the egg rolls and I even grabbed egg rolls to take to our son! They were amazing! The wings were great and smoky! The brisket and barbecue were delicious and the sides tied it all together!! Everything from the food to the service was amazing!! I highly recommend the scenic drive to Apple City BBQ! You will not leave disappointed or hunger! The servings are were huge!! 10/10

I went to the restaurant based on an Instagram review. We drove approximately 1 hour. The food was just okay. They were very short on staff and service was very slow.(I don't hold that against them for a review of the food) They never said that to us, I overheard one of the servers saying it to someone else. We were not even greeted at the door. I was going to just leave, but my friend wanted to give them more time. At a minimum, you should greet people at the door and say "we we are a little short....." I will say they were saying it to others, just did not say it to us. The server was helpful in reviewing the menu once we sat down. Overall, I would eat there ifI am in the area, but I would not make a special trip.

Well what a nice surprise. We stopped in for lunch and the service was fast, the place was packed, and the food was utterly delicious. I highly recommend the ribs and green beans. My husband had the brisket end potato salad. Every bite was delicious!

You wont find food this good for many miles! Burnt ends are addicting and brisket is melt in your mouth. Get the egg rolls while your at it, nothing but flavor!

I ate her recently, with two others. I got the loaded fries and they were really good. The waitress helped us in a timely fashion. I like the atmosphere and interior decorations, with tin as wall panels and a garage door as a divider. Pretty cool ideas. I’ll be back!

Ill start with the positive....Smoked Chicken and mac-n-cheese were extreamly good. Unfortunatly now for the bad. I went here on Tim Shropshires video recommendation and reaction to the Brisket and Smoked wings. Well either he doesnt have the heart to tell people shit just dont hit or what cause my brisket was dry tough and fought me back when I bit it. Smoked wings were just too rubbery for being fried after. Was the second brisket I had that day and looked and tasted more like spider stew meat than brisket. Sorry but from a man with over 300+ brisket tastings Ive learned a bit. Good overall but what I came for was a miss...last photo as a comparison to earlier days brisket

Our 1st ever visit. Quaint little place with a 50’s vibe. For starters we tried the brisket pimento cheese egg rolls. They are really good. We went with combination of 3 meat tray with 2 sides. Brisket, chicken and pulled pork. Sides, baked beans and jalapeño cheddar grits. Brisket was ok, lacked a little flavor. The pulled smoked chicken was very good. Pulled pork was average.
