Sweets & Meats BBQ Restaurant

I just saw the announcement the Sweets and Meats is going to be featured in a Super Bowl ad this year!! Wow!! Congratulations! Hopefully this will bring a new wave of customers to your doorstep! Their new(ish) restaurant location is across Burnett from Children's Hospital. Tons of options for dine-in and carry-out, don't forget their catering too. This BBQ crew started waaay old-school with literally a smoker on the side of Clough Pike in Anderson Twp., opened up a spot (now their catering commissary in Mt. Washington), and finally this, a sit-down testament to all things meaty, and sweety! They have ribs, brisket, pulled pork, chicken.... This new location has burgers (I hear are fire). They have a fryer too, and their French fries are really good. I would be NEGLIGENT if I didn't mention the Mac & Cheese. You think you know, but you don't know until you've had theirs. Probably the best in town. That's high praise. You can make platters, sandwiches, buy by the pound, or order ahead for occasions like SUPER BOWL parties and catered events!!! Wow, Sweets and Meats on the Super Bowl! That's big time! Congrats!

First off, the place was extremely clean. I'm talking spotless. I felt bad that my kid got a couple crumbs in the floor. Service was friendly and the pulled pork sandwich with house sauce was excellent! Best bbq I've had this year, easily. I'd get the green beans again. They had a little spice to make them interesting. Fries were good too. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in the area. It did take longer than I expected for the food to be ready. Definitely worth the wait and reasonable, just be aware that it might take 15 minutes or so.

We were a little confused by the gps turning us into the hospital grounds, but we parked in the parking garage and came in what we determined later to be the back door. There is a store front that we missed completely from the direction we drove in. The service was great. Everyone was super friendly. We were chopping it up with the cashier while they assembled our Togo order. The smells were emanating all the way outside which got me excited about what we were about to enjoy!!My wife received a bbq four way for her Yelp elite membership bonus, consisting of Mac and cheese, pulled pork, Cole slaw and bbq sauce. I ordered some chicken wings, smoked then fried and tossed in buffalo-ranch sauce. Then of course my wife couldn't resist the homemade banana pudding. It looks amazing and it all smells even better!The house bbq sauce is thick, dark red and has a brown sugar sweetness with a smoky, vinegar bite at the end. Very good.I can't decide what was better, the wings or the bbq four way. Holy lord have mercy on my tastebuds. The wings were amazing. Easily the best wings I have had in quite some time. The smokiness was great without tasting like campfire, and there was some sort of rub on the wings themselves that just tasted so sweet and salty and awesome. The buffalo sauce had a sweetness countered by some heat at the end that danced on my tongue.The bbq four way was better than I expected. I'm not a huge Cole slaw person, and I only LIKE Mac and cheese... I don't go bonkers for it like some people. But I will say this, the combination of the creamy Mac and cheese, which was almost soft in a good way, underneath the insanely juicy pulled pork, with the crunchy coleslaw and sweet heat from the bbq sauce was perfect. It's not necessarily something I may have ordered off the menu on my own, but the next time we go back (because there WILL be a next time) I will have a hard time not ordering it again!All in all, I really loved everything I ate and look forward to a return visit!

Stopped in for a late lunch and took it to go. The service team was great. They washed their hands and wore gloves while preparing my food. The rib tips, greens and Mac and cheese were outstanding as usual.

Sweet meats BBQ chili 3-way with chicken! I was actually pleasantly surprised with the 3-way! I don't normally have BBQ but this was actually really good! The BBQ chicken paired with the onions and Mac and cheese was really tasty and are a true parallel to Cincy 3-ways! I would definitely give their other recipes another try!

I went to Sweets & Meats BBQ for lunch the other day and it was delicious! I especially enjoyed the sweet potato casserole and mac & cheese. The staff is super friendly. I will definitely be back to try out more items!

So glad this now has a brick and mortar! The greens were so good I dug into them on the drive home and finished them. The staff was SUPER friendly. Be prepared to fight a little for parking, and it's worth parking a block or so away and walk. It's always clean and smells delicious inside.

Kristen's staff is amazing! Everyone is so friendly, and the food is THE BOMB!! My favorite is the brisket, one of the best in town. I'm so glad they are near my job, now I can get it as often as I want. The sitting area outside is so chill, and when it's warm out they have live entertainment. You have to try this bbq spot!!

yall were at an event for big east (i think) and i just want to thank whatever dude was kind enough to give me a little during the event!

I was reading the reviews and was very excited to try this restaurant. I originally wanted brisket, rib tips and sweet potato casserole but they were out of those so I ended up ordering smoked and fried chicken wings, pulled pork sandwich and mac n cheese. I'm not sure if it was an off night but the food was not good. There was no seasoning what so ever and it just tasted blah, I ended up throwing myaway. Very disappointed customer! On another note the staff was friendly! I only gave it 2 stars because of the staff.
