Great first time eating at this place, our order was to go!! They were very busy but no lack on service still with a smile, I let the main man know he can catch up and I’m not in no rush. Communication was great even got to hear a little about the business and their bbq sauce regular/spicy and pickles all made in house. Yummy stuff. I didn’t even get a picture of the Pork plate they got in haled by my husband and his client. We definitely will be back. Probably actually tomorrow to get some to go food for our oldest sons 17th bday to share with some of our family for this celebration!! We love to help support local/family friendly small businesses as we own our own small family business too!!

Tried this BBQ spot for the first time today and honestly had a really good experience! The baked beans were pretty good—personally I think they could’ve been cooked just a little longer, but still tasty. My boyfriend got the broccoli salad and LOVED it (he’s a big fan of broccoli and coleslaw, so it was basically a two-in-one win for him).
Both barbecue sauces were amazing, but we both agreed the spicy one takes the crown. The pulled pork sandwich was a little on the dry side, so we definitely put that sauce to work—but even then, it was still pretty solid.
The atmosphere was great and everyone working was super nice. Definitely a place we’d try again!

Blind buy cause we heard such great reviews!!!
Bought 5lbs of brisket ($120 total) for a last minute playoffs game party! Very tender and great bark, was delicious and worth it! Everyone loved it, 10/10. Support local businesses cause this was so good!

Burnt ends (specialty on Saturdays) are delicious! Brisket was seasoned well and the pork was juicy. Baked potato salad was light and refreshing. BBQ sauce had just the right amount of smokiness and tang. Excellent service and thankful for the meal here.

I got brisket sandwich, half rack of ribs and a pound of hot wings. Everything was delicious.
The brisket was the best I’ve ever had from a store. Tender, juicy and perfectly seasoned – not dry or chewy like some store bought brisket I’ve had.
The chicken wings were perfectly smoked. I recommend extra hot sauce if you like them spicy.
The ribs were also perfectly seasoned and cooked..I prefer my ribs to be fall off the bone or at least pull clean from the bone – these were a little chewy for my liking, but the sauce and the taste were phenomenal. Perfectly smoked and seasoned.
The pickles were to die for and the Mac and Cheese the perfect comfort food for me.
Highly recommended. Definitely the best BBQ place in Tacoma in my opinion.

I genuinely wanted to give atleast 3 stars
I liked the prices and liked the “family” type of atmosphere
Sadly the Bbq lacked flavor and our ribs were pretty dried out , brisket was extremely fatty and oily , I also give two stars because when our brisket was weighed for the “1/2lb” the distributor took off meat to lessen the weight instead of fat which was sketchy we would rather pay for what we actually consume MEAT not fat which they kept in to even out the scale (kind of scammy) .
The potatoes in the potato salad were rock hard and no flavor , I couldn’t even taste mayo or atleast salt and pepper . The beans tasted straight out the can no flavor . We brought it home to add our own seasoning but still the beans and potatoe salad were inedible . The $0.25 cent corn muffins were diabolic in size , size of a quarter and dry ! Kinda strange. The only somewhat of flavor was the bbq sauce which didn’t stand out.
I feel like atleast booting the flavors would help this place reboost its reputation.

This was my first time trying My 4 Sons BBQ as it’s a bit aways from where I live, but I was in the area and happened by there while hungry so thought I’d stop in.
Non assuming little corner spot. Definitely what I would call a BBQ joint versus a BBQ restaurant (this is a good thing, BTW).
I ordered the burnt ends as this is the special on Saturdays from what I understand. Serving sizes were generous. It came with dill pickle and onion slices which was appropriate. It also came with a little cup of sauce which honestly, might be some of the best restaurant BBQ sauce I’ve ever had. Not sweet, but well spiced and it complemented the burnt ends nicely.
I also got a medium side of Smoked BBQ Beans. I ordered a medium sized cup before I noticed the cup sizes on the wall above me and medium is really big. I didn’t really care for the beans. Had a bit of traditional “pork and beans” flavor to them which I’m not a fan of. But these were definitely house made and not canned which some BBQ spots I’ve tried have been know for just doctoring up canned beans. Not here.
I also got 2 mini cornbread muffins. These were sweet corn bread so if you enjoy that, you’ll probably like these. But sweet cornbread is something my Georgia palette will not abide.
Lastly, the service. It wasn’t unfriendly, but wasn’t overly friendly either. Felt a bit like my presence was a minor annoyance. I didn’t feel like they were particularly glad to see me. The people ahead of me got the same reception.

MIND IS BLOWN THAT THIS PLACE HAS LESS THAN 5 STAR. I’ve used their catering 3 or 4 times now. Clearly these other reviewing peeps haven’t had other BBQ lol. I spend 24hrs smoking my briskets and this place is the closest I’ve EVER tasted to my homemade stuff. I’ve been smoking BBQ for 20 years, lived all over the US, tried countless BBQ places and I’m telling you right now. Best I’ve had in WA (and I’m a picky Dentist! Lol). Great job guys! Customer for life.
