I've been wanting to find a new BBQ spot, and I definitely think this is it! When I got to the counter, the man working there was very friendly and helped me select the Brisket Mac and cheese bowl. I got their house made sweet and tangy BBQ sauce and a side of sweet baby rays and it was exactly what I was looking for. There was a solid amount of Brisket and the Mac and cheese was flavorful and cheesy. The brisket was very tender as well.

After reading some of the reviews, I drove over from W. Akron to give them a try. The ribs were good, but not great as was the cole slaw. The star of the show was the brisket (as others stated), as well as the baked beans and mac&cheese. The brisket was amazing. The sweet bbq sauce was tasty. The staff there were friendly and the little place was charming. There is a drive-thru and a walk up place to order. I ordered online and they got it together once I arrived. Definitely worth a try.

Amazing food.The brisket I had was about a foot long, great smoked Mac & Cheese plus good baked beans.I tried his bbq sauce that he made instead of the sweet baby rays, I told him he should ditch the sweet baby rays and sell his own.Loved it

So excited to have a good bbq option in Wadsworth. We ordered a little bit of everything when we placed our order online. Shortly after, the owner called us and said that the ribs wouldn't be out of the smoker until a little later and gave us the option of coming to get the other stuff, cancelling the ribs, or coming later to pick it all up. We opted to come later to get it all, but we were so happily surprised that the owner didn't want us to show up and not have something and personally called us. He was so friendly and thanked us for our business. Really impressed. Food was just as impressive. First off, bbq is pricey, but it's worth it here because the portions are huge! Especially compared to other bbq places. The Mac and cheese was so good. The pulled pork and brisket are excellent too. The ribs are so meaty and the perfect amount of smokiness. We really enjoyed our food and will definitely be ordering again in the future.

Taking food home for me and the boyfriend. I got the brisket and pulled pork platter, which came with a drink, cornbread and two sides. I got double mac n cheese so we wouldn't fight, added baked beans, another muffin and a side of slaw. They give you the bbq sauce on the side. The homemade sweet and tangy is where it's at. I will get a lot more sauce next time. We split the meats and have so much left over still. The coleslaw paired so nicely with the meats and the beans and I topped mymac and cheese with the pulled pork. They also have coke products! The food came up quick and the order was accurate. No pictures because we ate it right away!

New open in wadsworth. First timer at Books. As a self proclaimed brisket aficionado, my brisket rating was a 6 stars out of 5Brisket - Tender juicy peppery. I got the $20 basket and there were two huge pieces inside. A+ there. I could have ate 3 more. Wow. Just that good.Coleslaw - 3/5 was good. Very close to Buehlers style. Mac and cheese - 3/5. Good. Pretty standard but tastyCornbread - needed the most help. Tangy sauce - pretty mustardy - at least that's what I taste. It could have no mustard lol As you read, you're probably thinking - this guy is just bashing the sides and gave it five stars?? Yep, the brisket was JUST THAT EXCELLENT!! It's a notch or two above. Check them out!

The brisket was delicious and generous on the portions. Sausages have a great flavor set apart from other BBQ joints. Ribs are spareribs so if you aren't used to the extra cartilage in your ribs it might be a little turn-off, but I love them. Perfect amount of bite and very tender. Hey Books... take these to competition. On a small down note, the pulled pork was a little on the dry side, but came right back with some of their spicy house BBQ sauce. Cornbread and beans were a great addition on the side. Thanks. I'll be back.

Everything is spot on. I smoke something every weekend and it's hard for me to find BBQ as good as mine. This is better than mine. Mac n cheese is amazing, portions are generous, prices are fair. What are you waiting for?
