Brother's Barbecue

Reviews & Tips

• 0

  I visit the Heber Springs area often, and when I am there I usually make a point to stop by and eat lunch at Brothers BBQ. I grew up in the mid-south eating Memphis style pulled pork sandwiches and ribs. I also cook my own hickory smoked pork shoulders and Boston butts, and do a pretty fair job of it. The BBQ pork at Brothers is so good that I feel I've gotten my bar-b-que "fix" without going to the effort of cooking it myself!
  
  I'm surprised by the comments from the other reviewers as I don't recognize the place they are describing. If you want brisket go back to Texas! But if you want good, hickory smoked pork Bar-b-que then Brothers will not disappoint you. Good beans, fries, and cole slaw too. Also, the hamburgers and chicken wings are excellent!
  
  Also, I've seen service be a bit slow at peak lunch time. That's because the waitresses are BUSY, not inattentive. The owner is usually there and everyone is friendly and helpful.

  I will preface this review and state that I am from Texas and have ate at some of the greatest BBQ joints in the world which just happen to be in Texas. They ruined for me what would otherwise be decent run of the mill places.
  
  Brothers would still not fall into the decent category. The food at Brothers Barbecue isn't great. The ribs were dry and the pulled pork was okay. The sides weren't bad and the roll was the highlight. It's not a good situation when the highlight of a BBQ place is the rolls. The sauce reminded me of KC Masterpiece but maybe a little thinner. Not impressed.
  
  Maybe my BBQ standards are too high, but this place was mediocre to poor at best.
  
  Later in the day I got fairly sick after eating here. I paid for it. Never again.

  One of my customer's recommended this place to try out for bbq.  I got the brisket plate with baked beans and coleslaw.
  
  I didn't really like the bbq sauces that you could put on it.  The "hot" was not that spicy at all but more of a vinegar-y taste.  I stuck with the other sauce, which I assume was the mild.
  
  The bread that came with it was nice and soft.  I liked the sides as well.  I'm kinda picky about coleslaw and this wasn't too shabby.

  This restaurant is a true example of how customer service is dead.  Watch out, if THEY make a mistake it is YOUR fault and THEY could care less, and they will make sure to let you know it.
