Boss Hog Barbecue - South Plainfield

Boss Hog Barbecue has brought fresh and tasty old school BBQ to South Plainfield. The place is small and cozy, nice dunch place. Food is pre cooked and prepped so within minutes you can have brisket, ribs, pulled pork and chicken with several of sides to choose. Not to mention the assortment of sauces to sample. Great work fellas!

I drive past Boss Hog Barbecue all the time until I saw the pit smokers outside in the back, which drew me in and upped my expectations of this place... and boy did this place not disappoint. The pulled pork bbq sandwich is flavorful and can stand on its own without sauces, the cornbread was really good although a bit on the smaller side. The mac and cheese was amazing, just needed a little bit more salt but that smoke flavor is big which I like a lot. I do have to say I'm disappointed in myself for not visiting Boss Hog Barbecue sooner, do yourself a favor and don't be me.

Overall the BBQ was good but lacked the depth of flavor when you smoke it just right. I was surprised the membrane was left on the back of the ribs. The pulled chicken and pork were done well. I won't comment on the brisket since I have had some of the best out of Texas. The sauces were a good compliment to the meat and there was a nice variety.

I was feeling hungry and decided to grab a quick bite at Boss Hog Barbecue. They have a very wide selection of meats to chose from such as brisket, pulled pork, ribs, even some chicken options. I went in ordering ribs and the pulled chicken. To start with the ribs I was very nervous once I saw the Memphis style written next the ribs. I was curious because Memphis style ribs IN New Jersey??? When I bit into the rib oh my god it was like tasting Heaven. They were juicy, meaty, and extremely tasteful. Next up was the pulled chicken. After talking with the owner Mark he told me the pulled chicken consists of shredded chicken breast I was very interested to see how it tasted. And it did not disappoint the chicken was nice and juicy I even tried it with all the sauces. Personally I love how it tasted with the pineapple habanero sauce but even without sauce the pulled chicken was great. Overall this barbecue joint is a 10/10 and can 't wait to go back to try some more.

We stopped in after my daughter?s tournament and thank God we did. We ordered a rack of ribs, Mac Cheese with cornbread. The ribs are sooo good! There?s a variety of sauces too which are also amazing! It?s not too big inside but you can definitely eat in. Great people and great food.
