Fatback's BBQ & Rib Shack
Reviews
I'm a native Texan that has been in the North Carolina area going on for 10 years.There are not to many places in North Carolina that sell SMOKED BRISKET!!!! Until this past Saturday, I must say that I have never experienced BBQ like I experienced at Fatback's BBQ & Rib Shack!!!!! I just want to THANK Fatback's BBQ & Rib Shack for THE BEST BBQ EXPERIENCE EVER since leaving Texas!!!!! THE FOOD, STAFF, AND ATMOSPHERE COMBINED TOGETHER MAKE FOR A LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE!!!!!
We ordered plates as part of a work event. The options were child chicken and pork for $9 or ribs and chicken for $16 each option came with 2 sides and cornbread . I was very disappointed in the amount of food for the price. There was the tiniest chicken quarter I've ever seen and barely 2 spoonfuls of each side. On top of that the chicken was pink in the middle and the pork was full of fat and had no flavor. This was our first, and last, experience with Fatback's.
I would first like to say we've given them several opportunities, but this was the last straw. First few times, we've either stopped by or called and they never have any chicken. Months later; called in a pick up order for 2 chicken dinner plates, she took my order gave me my total, I told the girl I lived about 6 minutes away she told me to give her 15 minutes before I picked up my order. When we got there, she yells at the guy asking him how many pieces of chicken he has left he said he had only one and that it would be a 30 minute wait for more. There was no I'm sorries, no apology at all for misleading us. I was under the impression that a call in order was still an order taken, they had our phone number they could have called and said the chicken was sold before we got there, no offer to make amends for waisting our time driving there. Needless to say I'm done.
wow amazing restaurant, best BBQ in Fayetteville HANDS DOWN
The food was great. However it came to about $17 for the brisket and rib combo with a side order of baked beans and potato salad. I got it for pick up. So I was thinking for that much money I'd have a good amount of food that would fill me up. So I was pretty excited. I open up my bag theres only 3 ribs and 1 small slice of brisket and the two little side orders of beans and potato salad that probably took me like 2 minutes to eat. And I was still hungry after that. Like I said the food was great. Probably some of the best BBQ I've ever had. But I didn't pay $17 dollars to get a couple little scraps of meat! Was really disappointed.
