What a gem we just stumbled upon! The food is fantastic, brisket was melting away and the burnt ends were delicious. All served on locally made bread, the best bread I’ve had for a long time! Also had homemade sausage as a special and can’t wait to be in the area again
Amazing quality food, I’ve never had a bad bite. Had the brisket and burnt ends, and I can say easily it was the best brisket I’ve had, perfect amount of seasoning and bark to it. Great amount for just a small appetizer, and not dry at all. The burnt ends weren’t quite ready when I showed up to place my order, so they let me know it would be about a 20 minute wait for the burnt ends to be ready then they could start preparing the rest of my order. Which should speak to this man’s craft, a lot of people would just shove them out and it wouldn’t be just right. Instead he waited and made sure it was perfect. Started to rain while I was waiting and the girl at the window even walked my order out to my truck. I’ll wait any day for quality. You should too, try this place out and you won’t regret it!
Let me start off by saying if you have a small stomach you will be leaving with leftovers! The food is fresh and moist and worth the wait! It’s in a nice back alley in Downtown Danielson CT where you can smell the smoked food all over town. If you’re looking for authentic tasty small town bbq you must give him a try the owner is awesome and friendly and his fall off bone ribs on rib day will keep you coming back. You must keep an eye on his social media for when he down special limited time items that will be making you want it a permanent menu item. My go to is the Brisket sandwich I have never had such a seasoned and moist brisket as he does! Omg I wanting some now as I write this. -The Fluffy Bearded Man
I was pleasantly surprised to stumble upon this place, and I love some good BBQ so I had to try it! I had the ribs and cornbread, and it was amazing. The ribs were so tender and the rub was perfect. The cornbread was so yummy! Staff was friendly, and I loved how low key it was. I'll definitely be back. This is how BBQ should be. 10/10.
Well the third time was the charm this afternoon! Before I even got to the parking lot that sweet heavenly smell of a smoker was hitting my senses! I ordered app portions of brisket and pulled pork and a side of dirty rice. And Wowza! Yum to the yum when I got home! I polished off the rice but split the meats in half to have some for tomorrow. It was very nice meeting you both and I will definitely be back. Hope to try a rack of ribs next! Thanks again and great job! I lived in North Carolina for ten years so I know good BBQ and yours it definitely that!
I’ve been smelling the amazing BBQ around town. Finally found its source it’s the Wicked Sinister Smokehouse. They have quite the setup and the food is worth the price. The flavor was all perfect no sauces needed but the hot honey was a very nice addition. These guys know how cook meat.
Food is absolutely incredible, as other reviewers have mentioned. It’s VITAL to follow them on social media as they move to different spots in the area and post their location DAILY. Don't just go off what Google says. If you do, blame yourself for not paying attention.
