We stopped in and got food from here for the first time on Saturday 7/5. Everything was great. The burnt ends and ribs perfect. The combo platter kielbasa, chicken and pulled pork was amazing as well. Thank you Brown Brother's BBQ for an excellent meal and we definitely will be back. Can't wait for the brisket.

Brown Brothers catered a family party for 30+ people. As a result of a large event sponsored by Brown Brothers the day before, they ran out of some items that we ordered for our party a few weeks prior. The owner was very professional and called us the day of our party and offered other menu items free of charge. The pulled chicken and corn bread was outstanding. Thank you for stepping up and doing what was right. We will be back.

Best Cornbread ever!! And the corn chowder is so much more than corn chowder. The smoked chicken in that chowder was perfection. I’m not in town often, but when I am, I’ll be returning here every time!

Brown Brothers BBQ is simply the best! They provided catering for our wedding. They did an amazing job, food was absolutely delicious. Staff was very friendly, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our wedding was over a year ago and people are still asking me regularly who provided the catering because the food was outstanding. 10/10 recommend!!!

Best BBQ in the entire Northeast! Been driving all over the northeast (11or12 states) for the past 2 1/2 years and eaten BBQ throughout. We are from Colorado and have eaten a ton of Texas and KC BBQ as well. Brown Brothers is awesome. Go there. Highly recommend the burnt ends and brisket. All so good. Thanks for having us!

Stopped for delicious BBQ on hour five of driving route 90 and the slight detour was very worth it. Literally finger-licking good. The pork, coleslaw and sauce were my favorite. Portions are sizable and we took some to go.

I was hooked when they were only a food truck! Then they opened their store front. Then I had them cater my son’s graduation party. Pleasant to deal with. Quick service. Delicious smoked meats. Can’t go wrong. Since my son’s grad party, had them cater a work retirement party, and plan to pick up for a family Labor Day party this coming weekend. Prices are shared on their website for their restaurant and catering. They respond to Facebook messages promptly. Definitely a great addition to the community.

I was traveling from Massachusetts to Niagara Falls. It so happened that we wanted a town pizza place and ended up here at Brown Brothers. We can't regret the decision to replace pizza with this barbecue. This has been the best barbecue I have ever had. I recommend this 1000% thank you thank you.
