Pig Out Nola Barbecue

The place is small. Kinda unassuming.The food was really good!Only thing I'd say against it, and it's not a negative, just unexpected--the "spicy" sauce is not spicy.The sides were pretty basic, but the pork was cooked to perfection--juicy, tender, and flavorful.And great bang for your buck.

Date of visit: December 22, 2024Another rare Yelp misfire! My friend wanted to see what New Orleans had to offer by the way of barbecue and this place was nearby and highly rated but was a mixed bag at best:The curly fries looked good, but they did not have much flavor to them, though the crunch was pretty good. Think I would have preferred the ones from Arby's, truth be told. However my brisket samich was quite good, and that helped make up for the so-so curly fries.What was unacceptable, however, was the cornbread. The piece was shockingly small, though in the end that is probably for the best as that meant that we threw less of it in the garbage because it was basically inedible. No flavor, no sweetness, just bland yellow dough. They would do well to switch to boxes of Jiffy over whatever they are trying to do with this!

My daughter and I made a to-go order from Pig Out Nola BBQ because we were both tired and did not feel like cooking at home. Full disclosure: I'm not a big BBQ fan outside of KC, but she is, so I figured, why not? I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the overall quality of the food! In my humble opinion, most of the BBQ I've had here in NOLA has been just OK, but this was much better than I expected! The menu is fairly simple, and the joint is located in the French Quarter, so its prices are in line with its location. That said, I didn't find the price overly high. The rib plate I ordered was $20 and included three sides. I LOVED the ribs and the beans! Both were seasoned well. My general complaint about the ribs I've had in the city is that the ribs tend to be rather dry and small. Not so, here! The ribs were flavorful and moist and a good size for the price. The beans had a little spice but not too much, and left my taste buds dancing! I thought the mac and cheese were okay, but there was nothing to write home about. I don't like coleslaw, so I can't tell you anything about its quality or taste. You'll have to try it for yourself. Overall, I enjoyed my dinner and will go back! My daughter had the brisket plate. Twenty minutes after we arrived, she came downstairs and threw her empty food container into the trash. There was nothing in it. I think that says it all!I am looking forward to my next visit. Who knew?

Must admit I was a little impressed. The brisket was good with lots of flavor. The ribs were good and seasoned well. The chicken was moist and full of flavor. Each meat just fell off the bones. I would recommend this establishment if you were looking for a quick bbq fix. Portions sizes were big enough to stuff us and take back for a late night snack

We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch here just outside of the French Quarter, make the walk! I got a pulled pork sandwich, curly fries and coleslaw and loved all of it! Great portion of pork and with many different sauces to slather, I was in heaven! The pulled pork was perfectly moist and flavorful. The fries were deliciously crispy. Great outdoor seating and just a bit off the beaten path so if you need a nice meal outside all of the hubbub, this is a great spot!

The worst brisket I've ever ordered Idk if it was just an off time but y'all should be embarrassed to swerve that dry meat.Ordered Brisket Mac n cheese (taste like water) Baked beans (taste like it came from a can)Coleslaw Gumbo (had flavor but was watery and had almost nothing inside of it) $50 for this is a ripoff!! Staff was nice and the place was cool but but worth it at all... Maybe train who is making this because it's terrible

I'm sure this is a chain, but it looked so good when we walked by we had to go in. It's incredibly small and open aired, so maybe not the best place to go if you're looking to cool off. Staff were very friendly and prompt, though, and we loved the food.Pulled park was moist and seasoned, the sides were perfect additions, and they have a few different beers. The brisket was too fatty and dry for me but I'm sure others might like it.

Ana the cook was very nice the very best ribs and brisket I have ever had ribs fall of the bone corn bread and potato salad was amazing would definitely recommend and come back here

Food was great. Ribs and brisket. Juicy ribs and good brisket. Cook gave me free sample of sausage as I waited and that was some of the best smoked sausage I've had. Guy next to me said the wings were the best beeping wings he's had. I'll be for those next. Smallish. A little line to order but food comes out fast.

Service was awful. Employees were fighting with each other and not friendly. Everyone seems unhappy. Food was okay but not hot. We were there during Mardi Gras so may have been busier than normal but still the employees should have been friendlier.
