Brix Barbecue

EDIT: Trev the owner reached out quickly and addressed my issue. That is definitely above and beyond what most restaurants would do, especially on a Sunday morning. I do appreciate them taking ownership of the mistake and correcting things. That alone puts them above and beyond most businesses. Thanks for addressing my issue.Major disappointment. I've been here a couple of times before. Been happy. Picked up a to go order today. Got home and got shorted on the sausage link we ordered. Also paid for a large pasta salad. The container was not filled to the top. I don't mind paying top dollar for great BBQ but getting shorted in these two ways on an order is definitely not cool considering the price. I would definitely double check your order before leaving. But then again I'm probably not going to take chance on ordering here again.

Negatives first: small place with not a whole lot of seating. I took my dad who is in a wheelchair - do not attempt this! Not set up for handicap at all. Had to push wheelchair across gravel type stuff. Then we had to get him out of wheelchair to get it in the door due to the wheels not being able to roll over the bottom part of door opening. Once in it was not bad but again not a whole lot of room. I did get the jalapeño claw. But not a spicy taste at all. If anything it was very sweet. Positives: very nice guys running the place. Ribs were fantastic. This would be a good place to go with a friend or two and sit at the bar and eat ribs with a few drinks.

Pulling in to the parking lot, my expectations were sky-high. Brix had been recommended by someone whose opinion I trust, and the place has a great vibe from outside. Sitting in an older somewhat industrial area, the outdoor seating and second story deck look like an excellent gathering place. Walking in I felt the same. Nice looking menu, a window into the kitchen and friendly staff welcome you and your tastebuds. The meat is relatively expensive - $32 for a pound of brisket - and no two-meat plates here. The sides are a la carte and they have plenty of options. I wasn't starving, and ordered a half pound of fatty brisket and a barbacoa taco. Price with tip was around $27. I found a seat indoors and waited maybe ten minutes for my food. Lots of employees coming in and out of the kitchen, and the food looked good. When my plate arrived, I was hopeful. The taco was full of meat, the brisket slices were massive and the pickled onions provided some nice color. Unfortunately that's where my joy ended. Although hefty, the taco was extremely bland. No seasoning in the meat whatsoever. First I added the red sauce on the table, and felt it was pretty one-dimensional. Next I added the golden sauce and it was better. A little sweet, a little mustardy and it helped. Next for the brisket - for a $16 half pound you get two slices - although they are THICK. The brisket was extremely tender, and definitely not bland - but all I could taste was salt. A LOT of salt. No pepper, no spices and absolutely no smoke whatsoever. Very disappointing. I really wanted to like this place, because it feels comfy, like the kinda joint I would hang out in regularly if I lived closer. But the food just didn't live up to the hype, especially not for the price.

Last time I went the table condiments were fermented and not in the way a health inspector would approve. Food is very rich and I enjoyed the Mac and cheese which is more like a pasta with pink vodka sauce. Kinda hard to tell which direction food menu goes or doesn't go at times.Fun little joint to visit on a cool fall night but avoid those condiments as the can cause bad food poisoning.

You can't appreciate the amazing taste of Brix until Brix himself gets a taste of you!

This is the 3rd stop on my bbq tour. The pork belly porchatta was really tender and full of flavor. The homemade sausage was smoked to perfection. The only complaint was the brisket was a little dry. The location is easy to locate and the building was nice and clean. The service was quick and efficient.

Ambiance 4 STARS Funky and cool feels laid back.Service 3.5 STARSStaff were pleasant.BBQ Sauce 5 STARSAMAZING flavor and slap to momma good.Food 3 STARSChicken Sandwich was great as far as presentation. It was huge/BIG and great for quantity or size . It was missing flavor and seasoning though.Now I didn't get to try the ribs. I wish I would have. When visiting a BBQ spot one should try brisket or ribs. However, I came here because I had read reviews in my foodie group about this sandwich. So the sandwich was priority.The sandwich fell short for me.I will return for the ribs as I tried the sauce and it was damn good. Overall I enjoyed the experience and it was positive.

Very welcoming staff, extending from the cooking line to bartender. Burgers and fries were very good, they are good at what they do. The place is quite small so it can be a little awkward grabbing a spot especially if you have a big family. Two thumbs up!

I was going to see a band next door and was excited as soon as I walked through the door. I love a place that has the moist part of the brisket and it didn't disappoint. Juicy with amazing BBQ sauces. Had a cute little bar and watched the bartender make a hand mashed old fashion. Had the vodka pasta as the cook said it was good and might stop by on my way home for some street corn. Will def be back

Firstly, the staff was friendly and very helpful. I was a little underwhelmed with the brisket. The brisket was on the drier side, and I asked for pieces from the point. The burger was a typical smashburger, no complaints.
