So they have the best French fries ever. Pulled pork is amazing with hints of brown sugar & maple! MMmm!! So delicious! BRISKET is sooo good! Good deals on pitchers & IPAS!

The trip tip sandwich was beyond expectations. They have an amazing BBQ sauce. And their mash potatoes were divine. Definitely going back here.

Make your own plate. I highly recommend the brisket and ribs. The collard greens, Brazon Fries, and Texas toast are just delicious.

They just opened, so some items are missing from the menu. The staff is amazing, though! Get the house BRAG sauce on the brisket and put extra on everything else!

Smokehouse Burger was great. The wait staff were super nice but a little off. I bet they will quickly work out any kinks.

Brazen serves up REAL BBQ complete with A REAL SMOKER and meats cooked low and slow. Unlike other joints with BBQ in their names who are nothing more than BBQ sauce joints.

I was disappointed. Service was wonderful (4/5) but the food was terrible (1.5/5). Not worth the price, especially with such good food surrounding it.
