Reviews for The Mean Pig BBQ in Cabot, AK
It?s hard for me to overstate how much I absolutely love The Mean Pig BBQ. Their Smoked Frito Pie is my favorite meal?as in... favorite thing to eat on the planet. I love it. Each time we eat here my wife makes me ask what cobbler they have. Regardlessof what it is, if it isn?t already sold out, we?re ordering it too. Buddy and his staff are wonderful people that do afantastic job running their small business. They quietly also do so much for our community. Do yourself a favor and eat at TheMean Pig BBQ, and don?t be surprised when it becomes a weekly occurrence! Read more
I want to start this review by saying that the service was awesome. This in no way is a reflection of the employees. My order... consisted of two 2 meat meals. The foods chosen were: - Chopped pork, Brisket, Potato Salad, Baked Beans, a roll, and sweet &mild BBQ sauces. - Chopped pork, Jalepeno Cheese Sausage, Potato Salad, a Cookie, a roll, and sweet & mild BBQ sauces. The foodwas very lackluster. The BBQ didn't have much of of a smoked flavor. The chopped pork tasted like it was cooked in the oven andhad no smoke flavor and was dry. The brisket had a mild smoke flavor and was dry. The only meat that was alright was thejalapeño cheese sausage. It was more flavorful and wasn't dry. The only thing that saved the pork & brisket were thesauces. The sides were ehhh as well. The Potato salad was heavy on the dill/pickle flavor. The baked beans were basically pork& beans that had an off flavor I couldn't place but it wasn't a good thing. The cookie was a store bought cookie that they soldas a side. Same for the rolls. Last was the portion size vs. price. The sides were 4oz containers. While the meat portions wereabout 4-6oz. So one meal was 8-12 oz's of meat, and 8oz's of sides, and a roll for $15-$16. Two meals costing $30-$32. I amvery disappointed in everything and will not be returning here. Read more
If I had wanted a messy, cold BBQ sandwich I could have had that at home. Very disappointing. Very small sides, cold roll. Too... expensive for the quality of food. If you want good BBQ travel a few more miles up the road to whole hog. Read more
We ordered 2lb of chopped beef and half a rack of ribs, ribs were good but the beef was absolutely dry and tasteless. We... couldn't get to eat it, it was that bad, maybe because it was the end of the day, not sure but won't ever goback. Unfotunately we were in a rush and did not have had time to order anything different. Update: Manager was kind andreached out to us. Unfortunately at the time we did not talk to the staff but we really appreciate the time he took to respondto our review. We will give you a try next time we are in the area as your Ribs and the sauces were really good . Read more
I have been to the mean pig many times! Almost always have a great experience! The staff are always friendly, and willing to... correct any mistakes that have been made. The one time I ever had a bad experience with their food, I informed management, andthey replaced my food quickly. They are the place I always tell people to go! They have my favorite ribs. When I used to have todrive by every day, I would stop in about once every other week to get some ribs and a sandwich. I have been back many timesover the last two years always a great experience!

After viewing the Cabot Sign War, we had to check it out! Amazing food!! Pulled pork sandwiches are great!! Sauce is on point,... the meat is tender and smokey!! Great service as well!! The inside layout is great, and love the ducks unlimited!! We're goingto try the ribs next run around!! Read more
The food was okay. The person I went with had ribs that looked raw. When addressed. Cook said it was done. My pulled pork... was okay. Might go again to see if better. Saw other customers who seemed to enjoying their food Read more
