Brooks' House of Bar-B-Q

"Brooks chicken is the BEST but now I have ANOTHER reason to love this place they now have PRIME RIB!!!! The Server cuts it front of you. There are 3 sizes King Cut Queen Cut & I don’t remember the name of the small size cut. Their Prime Rib is DELICIOUS, TENDER, and JUICY. There is also a Hot Food bar, Salad Bar, Soda Fountain and Ice Cream. These you serve yourself and they are unlimited serving."

"Excellent BBQ and being from Georgia I think I know good BBQ. Big place, we ordered to go and ate outside. Inside is buffet and was a little too expensive for our hunger level. But looked very nice. Staff was very nice. BBQ sauce was some of the best I’ve ever had, I went and bought a half gallon which I normally never do."

"I’m an avid BBQ lover and it saddens me to have to give this place a low rating. I was so excited to try out Brooks’ House of Bar-b-q and what I left with is disappointment. Upon arriving, we walked in and saw the counter to order at. The staff was waiting patiently as we determined what we wanted to eat. We ordered a dozen chicken wings, half garlic parm, half spicy hickory bbq as an appetizer. As our mains, we ordered a combo plate of chicken and brisket with a side salad and onion rings, and a combo plate of chicken and ribs with Mac and cheese and vegetable which were carrots. As per the menu, all dinners come with a buttered roll and two sides. There’s a $0.60 up charge if you want to switch your roll to cornbread. I ordered two pieces of cornbread too, and got two drinks. After we placed our order, the front staff didn’t give us any direction as to where to pick up our food or where to sit to eat our food. I had to physically ask these questions like “where do we go to pick up our food?” “Where can we sit to eat our food?” Turns out you just wait until your order is called right where you ordered food. And outdoor seating is available behind the place. Receiving our order was relatively quick. We sat out back. We ate the chicken wings first. They were good. Meaty flavorful saucy wings. I really loved the garlic parm sauce. It was fresh garlic they used in their sauce and you could tell. This was honestly the best food item I ate from here. The spicy hickory bbq was okay. Nothing to rave about. Then this is where disappointment settled in. Like I mentioned we ordered the combo plates. Both had chicken. It was very good. Smoked. And the skin was great. Big piece of chicken too. But one plate had the ribs. It was 3 ribs in total which is perfect for a combo plate. However these ribs WERE NOT fall off the bone meat. I needed a knife to cut through them and all they give out are plastic utensils. It was rough very rough trying to get through these. The ribs were juicy-ish. But also needed some type of sauce. The other combo plate had the brisket. Tasted okay, but also needed sauce. The “buttered” roll was definitely not buttered and they didn’t give us butter either. The cornbread was dry as a river. But had no butter to slab on there. The onion rings were greasy like they didn’t let the deep fryer basket drop a tad. Carrots were alright, needed butter and salt. The utensil packet came with salt and pepper luckily. The only thing that redeemed itself was the mac&cheese. That was moist and cheesy and hot and yummy. I would order just this again. Overall I have to say it’s more like a 2.5 star but I can’t do half ratings on here. If you’re looking for a bbq place around town, please pass by this one and continue to keep looking."

"It was very clean & the staff were all friendly. At first I thought $30 for 2 meat choices was a little expensive, but the serving sizes are very generous, the food is delicious and there's a large variety of hot & cold bottomless sides and desserts. There are a lot of meal size choices, also (1 meat, 2 meats, 3, etc). Well worth it!"

"This restaurant is an excellent place to go for some excellent barbecue chicken. I have not been to Brooks' for about 5 years but was not disappointed. Since COVID-19, they updated everything to an all-you-can-eat buffet-style, which is nice as it gives you more options for what to get for your sides. Upon arriving at the restaurant, you check in to order your meat meal and get a token to give to the server at the meat buffet. After paying, find a seat and then get your food. Drinks, meats, salads, desserts, and sides are all in the same area. The BBQ chicken, as always, was amazing. The sides were impressive as well. I especially enjoyed the potato salad and baked beans. Overall, good experience."
