Franklin Barbecue truly lives up to the hype! The brisket was melt-in-your-mouth tender with a perfect smoky flavor that made it absolutely worth the wait. The ribs and sausage were equally impressive, each bite packed with rich, savory goodness. The sides, especially the potato salad and coleslaw, were fresh and paired beautifully with the meats. The staff was friendly and kept the line moving smoothly. If you’re a barbecue lover, Franklin Barbecue is a must-visit. It’s an experience you won’t forget!

We got this delivered to our house in Washington DC. We went to Texas last week and wanted to try this place. However, we heard that the line was very long and we didn’t have time to do that. So we ordered it to deliver to our house. It took about a week to get what we ordered and we were very happy with them. We got a brisket, sausages and a barbecue sauce. The package was still cold when delivered. Everything was delicious. Their barbecue sauce was amazing.

Waited in line for about 2.5 hours , well worth the wait. Chairs are provided , outside fans for the heat and fun fellow BBQ lovers! Everyone there was so nice! The food was delicious, beef ribs 10/10. Tender, flavorful and a good smoke ring. Turkey and Brisket were also a hit!
