I went to Sam’s BBQ because I heard that it was good. And it was. I got the BBQ pork sandwich and fries and it was delicious.

Absolutely the best. We regularly get takeout and it’s always fan-f’n-tastic. Brisket is awesome. Mac and cheese is to die for - possibly literally with all the cheese. Always worth the stop.

Dirty with flies everywhere- landing on you and your food. WHERE IS THE HEALTH INSPECTOR???
Don’t clean —- this is the same mentality that phases out quality condiments like Tabasco - fools!

Takeaway dinner. Chocked full wet brisket sandwiches—oh yea. Sides of chips green beans and coke and onion salad. Just right. Fountain Cokes the home office the home office would be proud of. Friendly and great prices. “Sam” took the orders today and shared some great stories of hosting and traveling to corporate outings. #1 is the real deal

No frills BBQ at its best. You pay for the food and not the frills. Go ahead and put some South in your mouth. Enjoy

This is definitely the best BBQ in town. Consistently fresh and tasty. Never a disappointment. Meaty Ribs with little fat. Excellent juicy Pork and Brisket. Good Cole Slaw, and excellent Potato Salad. Brunswick Stew is full of meat and vegetables. Not at all watery. Great for yourself, or with guests. Never a disappointment.

Dinner at Sam's BBQ-1 was our choice one night last week. A new offering is a sandwich side and drink for $10 and we both chose that. My wife had the pork sandwich with a side of brisket chili (a new occasional option) and a glass of sweet tea. I had the wet brisket sandwich, brisket chili (because I had not had it previously) and a Coke Zero. Our sandwiches were of modest size (which was appropriate for our appetites that evening). Both received excellent comments. The brisket chili was heavily meat, which surprised us pleasantly. Service was pleasant, helpful, and prompt. We could not have asked for a more pleasant experience. I believe I have now been eating here, with some regularity, for fourteen years. I know that I first visited during their third week of operation.

There is a lot of good bbq out there. This joint is one of the very best. Hell the beans were better than some pulled pork I’ve been served. But it should. They excel at sides here. The mac n cheese is some of the best on the planet. They a full compliment too, from green beans like momma used to make, fried okra, a robust cole slaw and a rich meaty stew. It’s a carnivores paradise! Perfect brisket with just the right pull. Ribs that take a gentle pull to tear away from the bone and a delicate smoked pulled pork that would place in any bbq compet. Service is agreeable and the place is clean enough.

We previously thought the food was OK, but in recent visits they have consistently had a snotty attitude. This even included a $250 carry-out order and I walked out thinking “nothing is worth putting up with that attitude “
Goodbye- I won’t be back.

This is true southern BBQ, they just need to open a location 25 miles northeast in America around Dawsonville.

We stopped in for dinner tonight at the closest place to our home that has been our favorite place for BBQ long before we moved within two miles of the place. We were ten miles away when they opened and frequented it then, as well. My wife had 1/4 chicken with mac & cheese and cucumber/onion salad with a roll and sweet tea. For the first time in fourteen years, I had a three vegetable plate - fried okra, redneck lasagna, and the cucumber/onion salad with Texas toast and water. We ate every bite. It was excellent, as usual. I remarked, as I always do, about how large their okra serving is compared to the other sides. It was done perfectly and was still quite warm when it arrived. This is a great place to eat!

Had passed this place multiple times and finally decided to try it. It was great. I have pulled chicken sandwich with mac and cheese (not from the box) and collard greens. Everything was very good. Get there early because it closes at 8pm.
Spoke with manager who told me he had created vegan ribs. Interesting.
