Fantastic service, fantastic food! If we are ever in the area again, we'll definitely be back!!! We (family with two children, 6&8) had the Jr Pig-out platter and were not able to finish it all!!! Amazing sauces on the perfectly cooked meats!! Mac and Cheese is dynamite as well!! Definitely recommend to anyone around �
This is my new favourite place. Most BBQ places are over hyped and/or overpriced. This place is neither. $39 for 3 combos and an order of corn bread is LEGIT. The place is clean, service is laid back but nice and polite and the food came out super fast. All of this being said the food is soooo good. I had the BBQ beef brisket melt with baked beans. It was spectacular. Most definitely visiting this place over and over again.
When I went here I had the beef brisket and fries. The fries were okay, but the sandwich made up for it immensely. It was so good and definitely would recommend. Staff was friendly and efficient during a busy night.

I had dinner here on Saturday night, mainly on the strength of fellow Zomato users' reviews.
It's a moderate scale smokehouse restaurant, a la some of the places I've seen in the prairies. The atmosphere is easy going and its small and loud - tons of walk in and take out business during the dinner hour.
The food was extremely good - brisket ribs and wings and some top notch sides, for a reasonable price (about $50 including drinks and tip, quite fair for the amount and quality of the food).
The overall experience was good but a couple of things to improve that would have made it even better - first, they need to provide some direction at the front door. A 'line starts here' sign or a 'seat yourself' if no one is going to direct the action. There was a fair bit of confusion and some hard feelings from what I saw because people felt like there were line jumpers or having trouble grabbing a table. The cash area was overwhelmed because of the walk ins and call ins while we were there.
Second, and this may be by choice, but I'd love to see them get licensed. While the chocolate shake I had was good, what I really wanted was a beer to go with my quality BBQ. Third, put some wet naps on the tables; the sauce is excellent but very sticky.
Overall I quite enjoyed the visit and do plan to return ... Soon!
Yes. That's all I need to say but I have to keep writing apparently. This is awesome bbq. I had the pulled pork and beans and it was delicious. Portion could have been a bit bigger but the flavour is spot on. I'd go back in a heartbeat.
Friendly service and great sauces (Memphis sweet and smoky BBQ!!). I had pulled pork, ribs and chicken wings to share - all of which were cooked perfectly. The sides were hit and miss. Great corn bread, rings and pickles but so-so Mac and cheese and coleslaw.

Damn Pickering, I had no idea you had barbecue this good!
Pig Out BBQ is probably more famously known for being on that one episode of "You Gotta Eat Here", and a good amount of times, I found such places to be a bit overrated, but this place really lived up to the hype. The restaurant is rather nice inside and everything was clean as well. Menu has all the bbq fixin's and some extras like tacos and wings.
The Jr Pig Out Platter was the ideal meal for 2 or 3 people as it comes with a 1lb of smoked wings, 1lb of ribs, beef brisket, with your choice of 2 sides, coleslaw, and pickles. The smoked wings were so damn good. The meat really came off the bone. Not crisp, but still sweet and they have a variety of sauces to choose from as well. The brisket was a bit fatty but flavorful. The meat was real tender and juicy. The ribs were done very well. Mac and cheese is a must have for a side as their mac and cheese was gooey and creamy and was almost damn near the best part of the meal.
Service was friendly and they have this spicy sauce at every table that was actually pretty damn spicy! The sauce was so good that I had it all over the wings and really added a nice kick. Prices are not bad and the place is definitely worth checking out if you're in the area. Especially because there didn't seem to be much around the area anyways.
Where do you go when you want to pig out on some good barbecue? Well, a great place would be the aptly named Pig Out BBQ in Pickering. If that’s too far east of Toronto for you, there is also one on Spadina Avenue near the University of Toronto that picked up on the success of this first location.
Great location, consistent quality.
I've been here quite a few times and have tried the many different items. It's clean and decorated nicely. The sauces are flavourful, the fries are crunchy and the mac & cheese is creamy. the chicken was a little dry but would be nice with sauce.
BBQ. Great bbq and value. staff are very nice and extremely accommodating. definitely recommend for a well priced casual dinner that will fill you up.

Best BBQ. I went to Pig Out for the first time on April 28th after seeing it featured on the show "You gotta eat here" Upon entering the restaurant you can smell the smoked meat which instantly makes you drool. The interior was cute, they have a big pig collection, and rustic decor giving that southern backwoods BBQ feel. The place was extremely clean and cozy and I felt very comfortable sitting down to a meal. I tried the beef brisket with potato salad and my hubby tried the pulled pork with mac n cheese and cornbread. The brisket was incredibly smoky and tender, and the spicy BBQ added a perfect pairing to the beef, the potato salad was homemade with eggs and all the fixins' and was one of the best I've ever had. I also snuck a couple bites of my hubby's pulled pork and couldn't believe how flavourful and juicy it was, he had the sweet sauce and although I prefer spice in my meals, you could taste that authentic BBQ flavour. Mac and cheese was really good, and the cornbread was hands down the best I have ever eaten. Definitely our new favourite and will be stopping in every time we are in town!!
Excellent!!!!. Had the pig platter for 4.. ribs pork wings brisket pork .. side dishes
everything was fresh and delicious.. best brisket i have found north of the border for sure.. ribs had just a little bit of chew to them (the way they should be) baked beans were amazing.. lots of love goes into this food and it shows!
having grown up in the south my curiosity peaked and i began talking with the guy at the front and he was more than glad to show me the smoker and explain to me how they came up with the concept..
1 warning be careful with that spicy bbq sauce its HOT
excellent dining experience will definitely return
We didn’t mind driving out to this location as the ones in Spadina has a very limited seating capacity and boy the drive was so worth it.
We ordered the carnivore platter that could feed 3-4 people.
The ribs were fall off bones and savoury, the wings are top notch and has very smoky flavour, pulled pork was deliciously sweet and tangy, my preference.
However, I think they came short on the brisket as it has only 3 tiny slices and cut along the flesh instead of across. Also, I wish they would serve beers soon. These are the missing link to complete the 5-stars.
Ordered the Pig out platter. The food was good, the staff on site were communicating very well and were friendly. The fries were absolutely perfect and I'd go back just to order them again. I would not order the platter again if I was to return due to finding another place where I found the meal to be a lot more juicy however the pricing here is far better than the other place.
I still recommend having the platter to sample the menu out to help get a feel for what you like though. I definetly would prefer sandwiches and wings here. I also failed to mention the wings are huge and were seasoned nicely.
This is my 1st time going there I just got 2 pulled pork sandwiches 1 smokey and 1 sweet the sweet one is actually a little spicy had to take a break while eating it and get some milk😅 still delicious mind you and worth the spice it's so flavourful! other then that I'll be back to try other items!
