Oh. My. Goodness I was COMPLETELY unprepared for the deliciousness that awaited me at Southern Hickory Barbecue! I just stopped here because it was convenient, grabbed a book to read while I sat outside at one of their picnic tables waiting for my food. But I didn’t wait long! I put down Pudd’nhead Wilson and opened my styrofoam box. A solid portion awaited me–esp now as all things food are going cRaZy! I put a piece of pork in my mouth. Not kidding at ALL. THE VERY tastiest, juiciest pork ever. Ever. Hands down
Well done y’all

No other Brunswick stew will do !! When it’s “in season” (only avail in fall and winter) SHBBQ’s stew is the ONLY place to go !! My goodness ! Their stew is just the right spicy mixed with succulent pork/turkey (your choice); savory potatoes and country veggies !! IT IS fantastic !! The only thing about winter in Alabama I look forward to is Southern Hickory BBQ’s Brunswick Stew !! =))
Cullman, Hartselle and Arab locations ! All are great and have the nicest people that serve with a southern smile !

I’m picky about my BBQ…so I didn’t get food here, my daughter did. But I took a bite of her BBQ sandwich and regretted not ordering one for myself! Very, very good

They have some good stew when it’s not just corn and potatoes.

The pulled pork sandwich was exactly what I want in a pulled pork sandwich. Flavorful juicy meat, fresh crisp slaw, just enough pickles and adding mayo added a great texture.
But the pulled turkey sandwich, I may be a convert to those being the better sandwich. Obviously turkey will be more dry, but theirs was still beautifully juicy and soft. It somehow is shredded into the perfect sized pieces and still holds moisture and flavor accentuated by that awesome slaw.

This is the only time I’ve ever had a complaint about SHB. I got 1/2 gallon of stew last night. We got home ate, it was awesome as always. Then I got up later to get a small bowl and opened the new quart and there’s nothing but broth, a few onions, maybe 10 kernals of corn and about 8 potato chunks. So this morning I’ve opened a can of corn, baked two small potatoes and I’ma fix it best I can. Not everyone gets home and dumps all the quarts together and then serves from that. We eat from each quart and then move to the next one. This has never happened before. I love this place and it won’t keep me from coming back. I just wanted to let y’all know so that y’all can tell whoever’s scoopin the soup up into the containers to try to get it more even than this. I even took a video just now. I just don’t want it to happen to a buncha customers because some may think it’s the norm, and it isn’t. But it still needs to be addressed. So SHB, we love y’all’s food. Just make sure y’all scoop the soup even next time, please

Great food, but if you’re a husky…lol.. person, the portion size will be small for you. Just order another portion and you’ll be good to go

Ordered bbq pork sandwich with heavy sauce. Got white sauce and slaw w
As on top of meat in bun.
Wanted heavy sauce on 1/2 chicken plate and got white sauce.
Other than that I still recommend this facility. Just be aware of sauces and check before driving off.
