Meaty, tender, fall off the bone, none of that hard crunchy stuff. Served with dry rub so you can add your own sauce. Also brisket is excellent, chicken & pork not bad either. The sides are awesome! Mac and cheese, and Greens n things - once again, best in America. For a change, try their pimento cheese dip with house made potato chips. It's listed as an appetizer, but you won't get it until you've already started on the rest of your meal. Food is served cafeteria style, with the guys behind the counter loading your plate up as you go through. My only complaint about Sweet P's is that they will run out of stuff, especially on UT game nights. Everything's good, so if they're out of ribs, get the brisket. But if they're out of mac & cheese, go home! read less

Yelp suggested this gem and I flew to it!  I swear 90% of the time you guys get it right and this time was a win!! I haven't had ribs of any kind in 3 years.. but then I saw an order come out before I made my order and instinctively went full speed ahead on the #ditto order. I am full as a tick and happy as I could be read less

We happened to find it while in Knoxville, and decided on the sampler, and literally everything was great, even the mimosas, which was surprising for a BBQ place. I'd highly recommend coming here if you have the time. read less

Good BBQ, good beer selection, friendly staff, and bacon chocolate chip cookies. Great little spot with a convenient parking lot nearby!

Fantastic ribs! Loved the mac n cheese! Beer was cold! Wings were phenomenal! Rusty the bartender was a delight!

I feel bad that the roads are all closed around it so it is hard to find but it is well worth the effort of finding it. The service was excellent and the staff was helpful and enthusiastic.  I think that this is some of the best bbq in Knoxville.  It is well worth stopping back even if it takes you a minute to find read less

Kelli, who works the bar, where I ate, was great also. When you have someone who loves their job and are supper nice and knowledgeable, well, that is a great bonus. When I travel back to Knoxville I will be stopping by again. read less

I really like how they use a heavy dry rub to season the meat prior to smoking, it makes a great bark on the meat.  The sauces and available drinks are great too.  We tried an orange infused cider from Austin :).  Highly recommended a we'll be back! read less

The food is good, but I've seriously never felt so welcome as soon as I walked in as we did here. We stopped by with our 7 year old daughter on Halloween night after some cold trick or treating. As picky kids do, she refused to eat anything there before we even went. So we do what parents do when they really want food that their kids hate: we made Dino nuggets at our apartment and let her bring them lol. Not only were they understanding and didn't make a big deal about her not ordering food there, they actually made her feel less embarrassed about being picky. Between the Bartender sharing his stories of eating only chicken nuggets as a kid, and the waitresses complimenting her green Halloween hair, she managed to relax and have a great time with us. We will be back very soon I'm sure! read less

Our food was handed to us and we paid. Next we took a seat on the outdoor patio to enjoy the awesome atmosphere. The food was even better than it looked!  My husband had the dry rub ribs and they are now his favorite!  I had the pork BBQ and it's ruined all other subpar BBQ for me now. I'm spoiled!  The slaw and green beans were very good, but the Mac-N-cheese almost deserves its own review, it's just that good!!!!!  Service was fast and super friendly! read less
