SLAB was founded on the basis of bringing you new flavors that may be a break from your traditional Texas BBQ. We bridge the taste bud gap of the Dirty South from Memphis, to the Carolinas, Alabama, and Texas. SLAB began as a food trailer in 2006 and in August 2014 established a brick and mortar location, already becoming the restaurant everyone’s raving about. Have you heard about the Notorious PIG?
We also offer catering so everyone at your next event can enjoy! Call us today to schedule our services, or stop by any time for lunch, dinner or simply a sandwich for a snack! Whether you visit us at our restaurant or food truck, we look forward to seeing you.

I was excited to visit this location when coming out of town. I had the trio sliders the chicken wasn’t bad, but the pork and the beef were very under seasoned and dry. The buns were hard the mac & cheese was very overcooked. The noodles were mushy and the amount of smoke that was added, tasted as if it was burnt, I also ordered the banana pudding. The cookie was stale and dry, and left a terrible aftertaste. Overall wouldn’t recommend. The two stars are for the chicken

This was our 1st time ordering from here. The bbq nachos had no toppings. We specifically said no jalapeños so apparently, that means no toppings!! What???? Poor customer service as the lady seemed to be bothered that I asked to make sure our extra sides of bbq sauces were in the bag. How rude of me. I should’ve asked if my nachos had toppings!!

The staff here are so sweet! I had great interactions and my daughter reported to me how kind they were to her a few months ago at a get-together! I haven’t had the food but everybody else said that it’s really great, especially the ribs.

Ordered take out for 8pm. My $65 worth of food was cold when it got home at 8:05pm. Very disappointing experience. They should have some type of notice saying, “your food will be bagged 1.5 hours before scheduled pick up time”.

i realllllly wish i could give them a fifth star because the taste was really good on the el jefe but there were a couple issues for at my sandwich were a bit of a bummer. first, it wasn’t very hot temperature wise, and secondly the sauce was a bit disappointing. what was good was the brisket, it was delicious, i just wish it had been hot.

Rarely do people take the time to say WELL DONE – but I’m here to do just that and I’m tell y’all say my order was absolutely delicious and flawlessly executed! Exactly as I requested (I’m picky ) and everything I received far exceeded my expectations! Their attention to detail is unmatched and the nachos, sausage, and chopped beef sandwich were all SPECTACULAR. Portions are HUGE and Delicious! 10/10 highly recommended! Packaging? Incredible! My only hope is that they will eliminate the 3rd party deliveries so that it cuts down the cost for the consumer given what the apps are charging. But if there is a place that is well worth the investment, Slab BBQ is it! Thank y’all! Will absolutely order again (pickup ). Great job, Slab BBQ team!

This is a rarity, but this is a 5-Star review for me. From the time I walked in until the time I left, it has been nothing but bliss. I am a big BBQ eater and I believe that you just can’t eat any ole body’s barbecue. I informed the cashier that this was my first time, I was from out of town, but the 4.5 star reviews sent me here hungry and wanting to know more. I was able to sample the beans, the green bean casserole, the twice baked potatoes, and a rib. Everything was A-MAZ-ING!!! It had the right amount of seasoning and flavor to tickle every taste bud on my tongue. After a long period of deep thought, I decided on getting what the patron before me ordered since he ordered very matter-of-factly and that was the Texas Tornado. The meat was super tender and everything meshed well together despite my apprehension. They have 4 types of BBQ sauces, but my favorites were their Gold Rush, a mustard-based sauce, and the Spicey, a hot barbecue sauce which was not too hot but had enough kick to bring the heat.

This place is amazing, so glad that it opened close to home. Had the pulled pork sammich and it melted in my mouth. Can not wait to come back and try the brisket and other things. Wife enjoyed a nice craft beer while we ate. They have a good selection and the staff was great. Even has some outdoor seating!
