One of the best meals in our whole 2 weeks driving around Florida. Friendly service and excellent value. A must-visit place on your way into the Keys.

Absolutely by far the best ribs and beef brisket I have ever had. As a long-haul truck driver. I have travelled the nation.
I’ve never experienced ribs as good as Mike’s.
He is such a friendly person and business owner, other restaurants and food trucks should take notes on how he operates.
Being friendly and kind is definitely a lost art in today’s society. But Mike still excels at it.
Will be recommending this food truck to everyone I know that comes down to the Florida Keys as a definite stop.

Wow! Amazing Texas style BBQ in the Keys. Went on a boat tour and the guide recommended this food truck. Absolutely amazing food. Brisket was super tender and juicy, smoked sausage was juicy with nice snap of the skin, pulled pork was excellent. Huge portions and fresh. Would definitely recommend.

Hands down the best brisket we’ve ever had. We know food. We’ve both been in the restaurant business for decades. Mike uses high quality meats, prepared with care. He serves good portions and the prices are more than fair. You will NOT be disappointed. ❤️

Mr. Mike and his colleague were so nice. They are open on 12/24 and you can imagine how hardworking also busy they are. Food was amazing, the best brisket I’ve ever had. Kids loved the Mac n cheese. Mom loved the veggies.

This is the best brisket in the State of Florida! The brisket plate was lean, flavorful and plentiful! They have a choice of sweet or jalapeno cornbread. The baked beans were chock-full of meat, such as brisket and sausage. Coleslaw with homemade. This was a perfect spot to have lunch!

The great smell lures you in. The staff were very friendly and checked on us a few times while sitting at the nice shady picnic tables.
Food was excellent and a nice healthy portion as my husband and I split a Pulled Pork plate.
Thank You for excellent meal & service ! We will gladly stop in again when in area.

we love love love love the brisket and mac and cheese. the coleslaw was yummy and the potato salad had a nice kick to it… We ordered double meat and got the smoked sausage. terrific!!
We chose to sit right there at the picnic tables that had a nice shady canopy. This is real homemade BBQ! seriously delicious! The staff was friendly and accommodating.

Seriously probably one of the best bbq I ever had. I make a habit of stopping whenever I go down to the keys. I had blacks and Franklin in Austin, and this is the same level or above. Truly amazing. My fiance normally doesn’t even like bbq but she’d be happy to have this place cater our wedding. Thanks Mike.
