Fabulous barbecue in a simple general store environment. A pulled pork sandwich with two sides is my favorite. The potato salad is a winner.

Definitely the best barbecue you were going to get in northern Virginia. Down at home atmosphere is very quaint. An Ashburn original.

We recently utilized Carolina Brothers for a children’s birthday party and seriously couldn’t keep track of how many people came over to us to compliment the quality of the food. We got brisket, pulled pork, and chicken and Frank helped us ensure we had plenty of food to host 60 people in attendance. I also highly recommend getting as many bottles of their home made sauce as possible – it is so delicious and really elevates the meat! Definitely recommend Carolina Brothers whether you’re stopping in for lunch or if you are hosting a party. We will definitely be back again for our next large gathering!

Amazing pulled pork meal. Pork was tender and juicy with a pop of spice. Mouthwatering, time rendering bbq that won’t leave you hungry. Baked beans are deep and rich in flavor with some smokiness that follows. The potato salad has nice full chunks of potato but the sauce is creamy with a little crunch and let’s talk about the homemade apple pie? Cinnamon mouth watering goodness that makes you want to sit on your front porch sharing stories from the good ol days. You just can’t beat this place, plus the customer service is just as good as the food. First time customer that has turned into a repeat customer.

Stopped in for lunch this week and loved the casual interior (lots of seating inside and out). They have beer and soda options, chips and their vinegar-based BBQ is so yummy! I loved the green beans but personally not a fan of potato salad (too sweet for my taste).

I enjoyed the beef barbecue sandwich with a side of the house-made baked beans, and put the cole slaw on the sandwich. Ask for extra sauce. Then, I went for a long walk on the W&OD Trail.

Staff is always great. Food is even better! If you want a solid BBQ sando with awesome sides, give it a try! Idk which days they do brisket but that’s my favorite. Or the ribs. And if they have banana pudding just get one. You won’t be disappointed.

I decided to do a 90 mile ride front to back on the W&OD trail. 60 miles in I stopped by Carolina Brothers for possibly one of the best meals ever. I needed some calories and I had an amazingly good BBQ pork sandwich, green beans, baked beans and a soda for $11!!! Delicious and so appreciated the affordable price. Great staff too.

I wanted to like this place, I really did. Have been wanting to come here next time I was in town. The food was just ok. Grocery store bread and middle of the road BBQ. The Cole slaw was made pretty lazily. (I know, right? How can you mess up Cole slaw?) The BBQ wasn’t hot, and the Cole slaw wasn’t cold. They both were just around room temperature. The atmosphere was way too quiet. No music, one tv on mute and the other one was off. It was uncomfortably quiet. Funeral home quiet. Hope whoever reads this has a better experience, but I’ll pass next time.

Delicious pork sandwiches! Excellent place for lunch during my bike ride. Ate my sandwich on the outside seating area. Also ordered a 1/2 rack of ribs to go. It was wrapped in foil to prevent it from leaking during my ride back to my car. Will definitely stop here again!!!
