We decided to get some take out at The Firebrand BBQ. We ordered the crab cluster and a pulled pork plate. Delicious!! It was ready quickly and we took it back to our campground. It was still really hot when we opened it up. The crab cluster was so good and worth the price. The pulled pork plate was really good. The portions for both were huge. It was a great meal for a rainy day.

I’ve been wanting to try this place for a while, and I finally got a chance to go. The ordering process was super easy, and the wait staff was really friendly and helpful. Everything seemed to be set up for a great experience. The seating area is outside, under a building cover, so dress appropriately for weather. The tables and chairs were nice, though. The only downside was the food. It was really bland and didn’t have much flavor or taste. I even tried the BBQ sauce that they had on the table, but it tasted just as bland and watery. I ended up drowning it in hot sauce halfway through to at least have some flavor. I was honestly surprised, considering all the positive reviews I had read.

We visited in mid-August. The outdoor setting was pleasant with nice weather. We ordered a plate of brisket and brisket in a loaded BBQ potato. The portions were a bit small for the price, but the food was tasty

This place has a great vibe. The owner is out and about the entire time making sure his guests are happy and fed. Gluten free food!!!! Owner told me everything is gluten free except the toast. Such a blessing for my allergy! The portions were very generous! The loaded baked potato was absolutely amazing. The potato salad is delicious! The bbq sauce was good but not exceptional. They also have heaters outside for the ones wimpy to cold like me since all searing is outdoors. The vibe in general helped make my review. Incredible vibe, incredible service great food. I highly suggest you all try Mad Jacks in Cloudcroft NM if you enjoy this place.

Treated ourselves to snow crab legs and they were the best price we found in town. Crab was amazing! The pork belly and brisket were also tasty. At one point they brought out extra ribs and passed some around to the customers so we got to try them. I think as far as the meat goes, the ribs were the best. Sides were ok but the main dishes more than made up for it. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal here and service was great

When you think Alaska port town you think seafood, but this is absolutely some of the best BBQ you will eat in the country. I grew up in CA and now live in FL. I judge a joint by it’s smoked turkey and brisket. The turkey was so moist and flavorful tossed in the House made BBQ sauce. I wish it was sliced though. Didnt get brisket but they had BEEF RIBS smoked to perfection. Beans and Coleslaw were okay, Potato salad excellent.

So, as something of a BBQ connoisseur, I’m gonna leave it to the next guy to try something different here. Having eaten BBQ across the US, from Terry Blacks and other excellent staple locations in Texas to mesquite style in southern AZ and Carolinas style, I’ve had a lot of BBQ and the majority was good to exceptional. Coming into Seward Alaska and trying a self-reported Texas style, I set my expectations low. I got the brisket plate in order to really “judge” and while it’s not close to the best I’ve had, it’s solid brisket, especially considering the location. The joint could be aptly renamed from Firebrand to Pepperbrand, however, considering the copious amounts of black pepper in everything, including the slaw, potato salad, beans, etc. The wife enjoyed a pulled pork sandwich, which for me is akin to ordering chicken nuggets — a solid staple, hard to mess up, and always tasty, but not a good judge of the overall quality of the smoked meats. So .. what’s the verdict? I’d come again and try the pork belly and crab and I wasn’t displeased by the experience. The service was quick and friendly and the open air eating was great since the weather was perfect, high 60s and light winds.

I know food ratings are inflated in Alaska because of the hungry tourists, but yikes this place was truly a let down.

The crab cluster had an awful stench to it, like it had been in the freezer for at least 2 years prior to being boiled. The white part of the crab shell was a yellow-green color, that was how old and stale it was. The barbecue was pretty bland, all I could say is that they cooked it thoroughly and put salt on it. The beef ribs were good, but that’s solely because they were fatty beef ribs, not because of their flavor or technique.

Unfortunately, we went back again for breakfast because we needed something quick and hearty. What a mistake! Unseasoned potatoes on unsalted eggs on bland and dry leftover meat from the previous day, wrapped in a greasy flour tortilla. The tables and benches were dirty with droppings and stains from the night before, even when they just opened in the morning. If you are going to ask for 15% tip minimum for an order-at-counter restaurant, at least wipe the table ONCE a table, eh?

We went here because Chat GPT told us this place had the best crab legs! Smoked crab legs cluster and a glass of beer was what we got! The chef gave us our crab but without any butter or sauce. We tried the meat nekkid and it really didn’t need any saucin’. It was naturally salty and the smoke from the BBQ was chef’s kiss. The owner and everyone working there were super kind and warm. Very happy with the food, service and vibes. They were busy! We highly recommend this place. One of the top 2 places to eat in Seward. (The other is Miller’s Landing.) Wishing them continued success.
