The Redneck BBQ Lab

Gluten free bbq sandwich is the best anywhere ever!!!! All of the items are amazing! It's attached to a gas station but don't be fooled, this place is friggin amazing. We stop every time we are in the area!It stays packed but somehow there is always seating and the staff is kind and unrushed, and manage to get food to you within minutes....awesome, fresh, hot food! They even blow torch some sandwiches and you can watch the kitchen from the dining area

Good gas station bbq but really bad service. The cashier was rude while we ordered. After we paid we found a table to sit at. We waited 20+ minutes thinking that our bbq was taking long because there were many people who ordered. The manager then approached us asking if we were waiting on something, we mentioned that we were waiting for our food. The manager asked for our name and proceeded to assist us in finding our order. She went down the line of asking all the associates if they prepared our order. The cashier had deleted our order off the screen. The manager was clearly upset and coached the cashier in the moment without hesitation. From the moment we ordered to the moment we got our food, I notified the cashier staring at my family multiple times. The manager apologized and gave us some banana pudding. After we received our food the cashier came from behind the counter into the dining area and walked by us and rolled her eyes. Might be a long shot but we were the only people of color during our entire time dining and everyone else received their order within 5-7 minutes of ordering.Brisket 9/10- Tender and juicy. Recommend dipping into a mixture of the spicy bbq sauce with the vinegar sauce.Smoked Turkey 9/10- Not dry and had great flavor. Dip it in the spicy bbq.Banana Pudding 3/10- Artificial banana taste.Sweet BBQ sauce 3/10- Personally it's too sweet for my liking.Spicy BBQ sauce 5/10- Not spicy enough and it's still sweet.Vinegar sauce 5/10- Very acidic, tastes better when you mix it with one of the bbq sauces.

You ought to be able to shovel bbq out the door at a high rate, it's all cooked, it's just assembly. But here is the fatal flaw, and I haven't figured out why they do this.They pause between each order for multiple minutes while, well I don't know what they do. There is a whole crew doing assembly and drinks, and you pickup from a different place on the line. I didn't wait long enough to figure out all the details of their "system". If the line is short then go for it, but anything beyond a few people and it's going to be a wait, and there are plenty of good bbq places within a short drive, it's not so much better you have to eat here.

Wife and I love eating here. The food and service are always top notch. This week I got the pulled BBQ plate with potato salad and coleslaw. BBQ is always moist and is excellent with or without the Redneck BBQ Sauce. To me it's the best BBQ in eastern NC. Slaw was very tasty as was the potato salad. While eating they come around to check on how your doing and offer drink refills. Service unmatched anywhere else these days. Keep up the great work RedNeck BBQ Lab!

My second visit... The food was excellent. The service was superior. The young lady who took our orders was very charming and efficient. The owner walks around checking on customers and cleaning up. As for the ambiance, well, it's an unpretentious NC BBQ joint. Highly recommended.

Very busy and very good!!Got the brisket and pulled pork. Both excellent. Sides of jalapeño Mac and cheese and baked beans and good cornbread. Great stop not too far off 95.

First time visiting the restaurant. We were in Raleigh and my husband who is BBQ fan, found the restaurant. Food was amazing and staff were very friendly and nice. Will definitely return. We even purchased the box of runs and sauce!

After the holiday foods, we're ready for something different, savory.When brisket comes to mind, I think of The Redneck BBQ Lab. Today, we had carryout of brisket, burnt ends (because it's Thursday!) and sides of slaw, Brunswick stew and cornbread. The two of us shared the fare. I made brisket sandwiches on some slider buns from home, and we enjoyed the sides.The brisket was moist and flavorful. Brunswick stew savory enough could have been a meal on its own in larger portions. YUM.Cornbread was moist with great flavor when enhanced with real butter at home.We enjoy the sawse in the yellow label, the Grand Champion, that has a smoky, tangy sweet flavor with a touch of black pepper.Slaw is minced finely, mayo-based with a touch of sweetness. Great alone or atop sandwiches.Used drive thru today. Server was friendly over the speaker and at the window. Arrived just after 11, so not much of a wait to place or receive my order.

Well I have to say this is the best bar b q I've had. If you are anywhere close you have to try. From the sauce to the sides. Clean country ambiance friendly staff.

50 min drive through time. As usual. Worth it. Brisket, pulled pork, slaw, Mac, cornbread. THE CORNBread!!!! Sweet, fluffy, perfectly salted. Desert that is not a desert. Today' skips--- green beans. Just ok. Tried the BBQ potatoes. Skip. They are more like pealed, steam table potatoes, with watery bbq sauce.
