Best barbecue in town, without a doubt. I've literally never had a bad meal at Pit Stop. The crew is also super friendly and helpful.
Absolutely amazing BBQ! I've tried a plethora of BBQ joints all around the US and I would put The Pit Stop up against any one of them. Great food and amazing service.
My husband and I had the privilege of being invited to a Wonderful evening of shopping, dinner, and drinks by the lovely, proprietors of Laurel and Jack in Ada last evening. While there we were blessed with the BEST tasting chicken we've ever had! We live in Holland and can't wait to come back to The Pit in Grand Rapids! We've, already, decided when our next opportunity for catering presents itself we will be calling on "The Pit" if they will come to Holland, OR, we will certainly pick it up! Seriously, if you haven't checked this food out, do yourself a favor go try for yourselves! Kudos to these two businesses that know what they are doing! I LOVELaurel and Jack and we WELCOME them to Holland!Joel and Naomi
Firstly, I love good BBQ and we have been driving past here for years trying to catch them open. We'll today we finally had a chance. From the reviews and from them having competition pedigree, we were expecting that great bbq. We got a slab of ribs chicken, coleslaw, baked beans and corn bread. What a let down. The best part of the meal was the cornbread and it went down hill from there. The ribs were just OK and the chicken was dry and overcooked. The coleslaw was tasteless and a few days old but the baked beans were a pleasant surprise. I have been to many rib competitions and was expecting more but unfortunately was met with just ok bbq. Maybe we caught them on an off day?
Brisket. Yes! Pulled pork. Yes! Mac and cheese. Yes! Mashed potatoes and gravy. Yes! Corn cake. Yes! Love love love love it!
Seriously best in town. Hardest part of your trip there will be deciding what to order. Known for their brisket, but don't sleep on what ever is the special that day. Come hungry.
Stopped by for the first time today. Summary - best BBQ I've had in Michigan. Do yourself a favor and get the Micknuggits!
First time visiting and I can assure you the food will not disappoint! As a Mac n’ cheese lover, best I have ever had! The servings are enormous! I had picked up enough to feed my family of 5, which to my surprise could of been more like 10. Kitchen looked clean (even for a late in the day visit) and staff was very kind. It appeared to be a family, teen boys at the front who were doing an awesome job!! If you are craving a good ol pig roast, check it out!
Fantastic food, service, and portions. Great value!Had Matt and team cater a birthday party for 55 adults. He was very easy to work with, didn't need a final head count until a week prior. We picked it up for a lake party. They provided everything we needed to serve the food and keep it warm and fresh. Everyone loved the food. Brisket, pulled pork, beans, cheesy tator tots and mac-n-cheese. The sauces provided were tasty, especially the spicy one. The portions were VERY generous, lots of great leftovers. Absolutely got our money's worth. Would definitely do this again.
About the best pulled pork and brisket you’ll find in a northern state! They give you really large portion sizes and are pretty efficient and moving the line along. Just remember they are only open on Thursday and Friday. If it is Thursday or Friday and I’m in the area, this is the first place I’ll go to!
