Delicious barbecue at great prices. Service was very friendly. We got a brisket plate with green beans and baked beans, and a burger. It was all very good and flavored perfectly. Not too sweet, salty, or oily. The beans were my favorite (both green and baked). Come here if you’re looking for good bbq in Chattanooga!

Brisket plate with coleslaw and baked beans.
The brisket was well done, nicely smoky throughout. Past the smoke it was light on its own flavor. I’m a smoker myself and am very adamant that meat should have its own flavor, and I often find this to be the feature that lacks in brisket and pulled pork from businesses. It may be in the seasoning, or the cow.. but it’s true here. Smoke is also typically so weak you can’t taste it.. but Good Eats shined bright on this front! The sauce made up for the seasoning though, it made an outstanding pairing to the Brisket, and while i wouldn’t recommend it without it, with it I’d keep coming back for more!
The baked beans were tasty. The coleslaw was a bit of a mystery.. i couldn’t tell what it wanted to be(vinegar vs dressing).. by itself not so great imo, but on a Brisket sandwich it went nicely. Added a little tang and some crunch.
I was sad there wasn’t a sweet tea option. But sometimes hard decisions have to be made.
Finally the service… the folks working here were awesome! Friendly, outgoing, helpful, kind. The type of people that call your name when you come back. You walk in and feel welcome.. it’s a vibe missing from a lot of places lately, and I loved it. I’d go back and try more of their menu anytime I’m in Chattanooga!

This was the perfect brisket and sides! My wife loves brisket, got a pound and 2 large sides for around 35 bucks. The green beans had smoked turkey in it and spices. Let me tell you nothing will top it. The mac and cheese got the wife approval which speaks volumes to her critiques of others in the past. Now the brisket was made by the pit master with soul and care. You could tell it was done slowly and done right!!!! First time in Chattanooga, and this is our spot y moving forward

We happened upon this unassuming little place the second of our three nights in town, and wish we had found it our first night so we could have eaten there all three nights instead of only two!
The ribs and the rib tips are amazing, as were 5 out of the 5 sides we tried. Besides great food, the people running the place were so friendly and wonderful.
Do not go to Chattanooga, through Chattanooga, or even close to Chattanooga, without visiting Good Eats.

Well, my first time here as well as in Chattanooga, TN. Hubby had heard of the spot from friends a year ago. If you a scaredy-cat tourist, the place will look sketchy as heck. I’m from NY and living in GA for over 8 years I learned about the best establishments, be them hole in the wall places! Anyway, you pull up and chef outside on the grill, smoking it up! When you get to the door it reminds me of one of those old liquor stores you ain’t got no business being in as a kid. Push in the door and that BBQ small hits your belly hard. It’s a small spot they got about 4 tables inside but it’s cozy. Menu looks legit. Our family 3 had a variety of selections hot dog and mac n cheese for the kid, I had the wings, green beans and slaw and hubby had a pork sandwich baked beans and potatoes salad!. I was able to get the green beans because they use turkey. I was salivating but disappointed. They were peppery and bland, but baby my slaw and wings were finger licking the whole time good. The wings were a little tiny but VERY tasteful. The kid ate all of his food and he a picky eater, plus he don’t eat everyone’s mac n cheese. Let’s just say no morsel was left behind. My hubby said everything was good he meant to get me the potato salad and him the coleslaw his error my pleasure. He don’t eat potato salad but decided to try it, why he couldn’t stop eating it! Then, he had the nerve to ask these people, ” who made the potato salad?” Glad we sat and stayed and enjoyed it all, they seem to be a family business giving the business with this BBQ. The bonus was customer service was all that and then some!

The best BBQ I have ever eaten in my life. My husband wanted BBQ, and I obliged by coming to this Google searched site. I’m a chef, going out and finding a good place to satisfy my palate is not easy, “Good Eats BBQ Chattanooga” was the exception! Don’t be carried away by the appearance of the place, let yourself be served by the kindness of its owners and the delicious food prepared with Love.
The Food, Service and Attention are A+. Super recommended!

The brisket nachos were delicious! Loved that they were on Doritos. The pulled chicken was just a bit dry. We did take out and if I had grabbed more sauce it probably would have been fine!

This was positively bussing. My girlfriend and I enjoyed chatting with the pit boss and staff. Good vibes all around. The pulled pork and the ribs did not disappoint. The price point cannot be beat for the quality of this bbq. Finger licking good, hmmmhmmmm.

Awesome little bbq joint. First off the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, super nice! I had the rib tips, coleslaw, and beans. The rib tips were moist, super flavorful, and served with a great sauce, really good meat. The coleslaw was good and the beans were awesome. Next time I’m in town I’ll have to try the ribs. Highly recommend people visit this place.
