Pulled pork is served dry. You have to request sauce. Their vinegar based sauce is actually JUST vinegar.
Looks like decent portion sizes, but those Wells are only about 1/4 inch deep. The potato salad was mushy and too sweet.

Nice, clean friendly staff. Good bbq sandwich, good shrimp n hush puppies too! Not a fan of the potato salad. I always stop by here on my way to Charlotte.

We finally tried this restaurant. While I was expecting a variety of pork selections, this restaurant offers bbq pork, fried chicken and shrimp selections. Hushpuppies are sweet with minimal seasoning. Pork is vinegar based. Coleslaw is roughly chopped slightly vinegary but nothing overpowering. Definitely will be back. I'm

What a pleasant visit to Smithfield's today! I was greeted when I walked in the door. My food was delivered quickly and it was delicious. Every guest was greeted with the same "welcome to Smithfield's - how are you today?" The restaurant was exceptionally clean and I was also checked on during my meal. This type of customer service now a days is so rare...so I had to give kudos to the Burlington NC team! Way to go and keep up the good work

I have a huge appreciation for all thing Smithfield. So heck this place must be the bomb. Well I was wrong. The chicken was not on the same plane as KFC, and that sets the bar low. The sides were basically Publix salads, the bake beans were good. For the price it's not worth it. The lady bringing out the food was as pleasant as a Troll. And it's a self serve place. Just Blah! Make the trip to Zaxby's next exit east.

I was out running errands and my wife told me she had ordered bbq to pick up at the drive thru. I couldn't pay for it at the drive thru. Had to park go inside and pay. I know first world issues but the smirk on the face when the employee told me this set me off. Why didn't she just walk to the other side of the wall and ring it up? This location just doesn't have its act together third time we tried and third time we left muttering that we should have gone somewhere else.

Stopped here to eat last week because school finally started in my county so while paying Spectrum I went for lunch here. Usually Smithfield's is the joint! This time for lunch the chicken was hard as h--, darker than me, the grease obviously needed changing and the taste was sooooo salty I had to drink about a half gallon of water later plus that good sweet tea to remove it from my body. Sometimes here it can be a hit or miss. It missed on the chicken omg! The manager on duty very friendly, by the time I got ready to leave more customers came in so I didn't complain I just eased out the door. The rest of the food was good; potato salad, hush puppies, Brunswick stew was good but Luke warm. Atmosphere is always nice. Just TV was a tad bit loud on that day. I do like the food just want to get my $12.00 worth of all goodness not some.

Chicken tasted like old grease. Manager acted like I was bothering him to ask for butter. Very unlike most Smithfield's but I would never go there again

Stopped here on the way home from a road trip. The inside was very clean and spacious. I ordered dark chicken with baked beans and sweet tea. The tea wasn't as sweet to my liking and the chicken was greasy. It put me in the mind of Bojangles. The beans and hush puppies were great and my husband's potato salad and coleslaw was good also. I would be willing to give them a try again, possibly choosing something different from the menu.

Went here to grab a bite to eat chicken looked old as if it had been sitting out I asked the man at the window for fresh chicken and I watched him go in a hot box and grab more completely unprofessional I drove off because I'm not going to beg for good service. Never again I ordered a 4 piece chicken box.

Best BBQ and chicken. Old style eastern NC style que (vinegar based with red pepper flake). Always hot and delicious. Fixing are off chart.The chicken is well seasoned and breading is thick. Every time, the consistency is never off. The Burlington location is the best of all of the locations. When we visit family, this a must stopped for us.
