Merrill’s BBQ

My favorite BBQ place in town. When I get BBQ I want a stuffed baked potato and not all of the BBQ joints around here offer them. Plus, it has a drive thru. The service is always relatively quick and the staff is super nice. You get a great deal for the price and I always end up splitting my food into two meals. There aren’t many other places you can get enough food for under ten bucks to have two meals. It tastes like food your dad would make on the grill or in the smoker. I’ve never eaten inside so i can’t speak on the interior of the place. But I personally wouldn’t care if it was a shack, the food is so good it doesn’t matter where you eat it, and that’s saying something. If you’re looking for good homemade BBQ and a bang for your buck, there’s no better place in town.

The first time I’ve tried this location was two years ago during early mid October or end of September when upon moving into the area. I must say we were impressed by the good quality and quantity of food this place serves. It reminds me of Whie Castle during the day when they would always have your food ready. The meat is tender and it’s mixed with pulled pork which looks to be a good combination. They also have coleslaw, baked beans, and potato salad which we normally order for our side orders at times. Once receiving our meal they give us wonder bread rolls to make our own sandwiches. Which I may say is quite interesting for us to give bread rolls like that to us. However I may want to point  out is that if you were able to make a sandwich by putting coleslaw as the first topping then the meat and lastly putting the bbq sauce on top it’s okay. But once you have a side of baked beans. You can however feel your tastebuds a bit tired or bothered by doing so constantly, so it’s best to eat the coleslaw separately instead of putting it on the roll. Overall it is appetizing and this restaurant has been an privilege to buy food from 🍽️ 5/5

Passed this restaurant and had to check it out. Nice little hole in the wall. Very casual atmosphere. They have 4 large picnic tables for seating in enclosed patio area. Order at the window and they bring your meal out when ready. Food was great! Had the pulled pork sandwich, onion rings and sweet tea. Price was great also. Would recommend. 📍 5 🍽️ 5/5 • 🐀𩐠5/5 • 🏪 5/5

Great little bbq place that was recommended to us. Got a pork plate with 3 sides (baked beans, potato salad, and corn on cob). Don’t forget to get dessert. The cobblèrs are exce. Very friendly staff and great food. Will definitely go back if in the area. 📍 5 • Lunch 🍽️ 5/5 • 🐀𩐠5/5 • 🏪 5/5 💯 Recommended: Pulled Pork Plate

Stopped when out of town to eat lunch with a friend who lives in this area. Everything our group I ordered was very very good! I had the veggie plate, huge chunk of cornbread, delicious turnip greens, etc. Hamburger was homemade and delicious. Loaded bbq tater was huge and very good as well. Will eat here again when in town!
