Amazing food, friendly service, and a great price for BBQ. Not much more you could ask for. Brisket was a tad dry, but just ask for the point/fatty cut. Hardly enough to lose a star. Really happy I made it out before they closed for the season and looking forward to coming again.

My husband loves bbq briskets and has had them at so many different places. This is hands down his favourite. Their salad is also delicious. It’s a must have every time we visit PEC!

10 stars!!! We had a late lunch here in August 2024 and the love, attention and time he puts into his food is tasted in every single bite. We had the ribs, brisket, chicken, coleslaw, corn bread, salad and potato salad. Each and every part of our meal was unique and tasty. We would absolutely return to try even more menu options. He really enjoys to cook and it shows!!! Amazing meal, nice little area by a cidery, great presentation.

Hands down the best bbq I’ve ever had! All meats cooked to perfection, delicious, very fair pricing, excellent sauces and cider from Crimson next door pairs very well too! It was quiet so they brought samples of the remaining meats we hadn’t ordered just we could sample the whole menu! Compliments to the chef!

Finally getting my hands on this on my third try at visiting this food truck (First time it was sold out, Second time they had to close early for a wedding). I am not sure if it is because of the excitement and expectation I have, but the taste of food is really mediocre. We ordered the Annie’s platter, came with a good portion and variety of meats. However the food was served cold, the marination did not really penetrate the meat yet, but it has a good char and smokiness to it. Overall a good spot to check out if you are around the area but will not recommend to drive here specifically for it. Damage: $62 for the platter Opening hours: Friday to Monday in the summer from 12pm to 6pm, recommend to call before you head down as they often sell out.

How was the food? Dunno. Drove 45 mins to get BBQ, waited in line, only to find out that (with 3 hours still to go to closing) all they have is brisket left. Yes, it is a long weekend. Yes, this is a tourist area. Maybe they should have considered that when preparing for business this weekend. Incredibly frustrating. Maybe if they had a website they could let people know to call ahead if they actually want to eat on a specific day. And no, I am not calling a restaurant 3 hours before they close to ask if they still have food available. Ridiculous. I hate giving bad reviews, but FORTY MINUTE DRIVE.

Absolutely delicious food!! We don t always love the summer traffic into the County but cannot wait to plan our next trip down to Hendricks BBQ!! We shared the 3 meat, 2 side combo. Brisket - so tender and full of flavour! Ribs - smoked to perfection!! The bbq sauce was incredible! Pulled Pork - so good!! Would like to try a pulled pork sandwich next time! Coleslaw- very tasty and not overloaded with sauce, just the perfect amount of flavour. Fries - Incredible!!! Seriously so good! We got ours with a side of gravy and we could have drank it the gravy was so good!! Overall wonderful time! Nice quiet little spot with picnic tables and umbrellas. Also has two porta potties that flushed and had sinks with soap to wash hands.

I finally stopped in for some Hendriks BBQ today. We had Annies platter, It was incredible. The ribs were particularly perfect. The rest of the meats on the platter were excellent as well. We got to try a slice of Brisket as a bonus and it was the melt in your mouth style I have only experienced in the south. Lastly, I dont believe it is on the menu, but a feature desert of the day was a peach bread pudding, As you can imagine from the rest of our experience this was incredible as well. Well done Mark, we will be back very soon!

Excellent BBQ. The ribs were particularly delicious. The jalapeno sausage had great snap. The fries were freshly cut and crispy. The team was super friendly and the picnic tables were comfortable with plenty of shade on a sunny day. Dont miss the cider next door, which is crisp and a perfect match for the BBQ.

Brisket was a little dry.

May 22, 2024

If you re looking to break the bank for extremely poorly done BBQ, this is the place to go. The brisket, pulled pork, and ribs were all dry as a bone, poorly seasoned, and seemed as though they were not made fresh that day. The sides are mediocre at best. All of this for about $30-40 per person. Not to mention, a bottle of Kirkland water costs $3.50 absurd. Overall, very disappointing. I will not be returning.

We visited Hendricks last week while eating our way through PEC and this stop was by far our favorite! We got the sticky Korean ribs and they were simply the best ribs weve ever had. The owner was amazingly friendly and takes great pride in his work and it shows. We will definitely be returning for more BBQ and cider next summer!

We stopped by in July to grab a bite while doing a cider tasting at Crimson Cider nearby. They were kind enough to let us put in some orders before they close early for a private event. We got a variety of sandwiches and sides. The flavours are decent and the food was very fresh. I enjoyed the pulled pork sandwich and the poutine. Unfortunately we could not order any of their platters as they had to close for their event.

The flavor of the ribs are to die for, absolutely loved their salad too. I think next time I visit, I will have the salad with the chicken thighs. The mustard sauce is so good that I would buy it if it was bottled! Congrats on your first day of opening.

We have attended Hendriks twice now. Both times we were greeted by kind staff. Our orders were prepared quickly and correctly. Our food was fresh, hot, and delicious. The food truck is clean and well maintained. Such a cute little patio out front! Let s talk taste!!! The hand made roasted garlic aioli is a MUST with freshly seasoned fries! The double thigh sandwich is absolutely fabulous! Tangy with a bit of spice! The fresh veggies on top add a great element of brightness to the sandwich. The brisket sandwich is mouth watering! Topped with crispy onions, giving a great texture and apple slaw adding a perfect touch of acid to cut the sweet-smoke of the sandwich! Both sandwiches were nested in a fresh, soft bun which set the whole thing off! Their poutine is fantastic too, it is rich, thick, cheesy, and Smokey! Honestly, a must try for anyone going to the county!! Cannot wait until our next trip back. 6/5 would recommend!

I grabbed 4 sandwiches, one of each (brisket, pulled pork, chicken and mushroom) and I tasted all of them except the mushroom. They were all excellent and my wife loved the mushroom sandwich. LOTS of meat and a large portion of fries that were decent but not the best (cannot complain its not a chip truck and they must use frozen fries). My wife took the salad as the side and it was full of fresh fruits and nuts, definitely not what she expected but thought it was a pleasant surprise. The only negative point is that on take out (after a +/- 10 minute drive) the bottom buns were fairly wet for two of the three sandwiches, I believe the pickles were too wet. Next time if we can I will eat there or ask for no pickles, theyre sweet/bread and butter type and not necessarily adding much to the sandwiches, perhaps dill pickles would be better but thats just my preference. Anyways as I was there for the barbecue they still deserve their 5 stars it was very good!

Great stop for a yummy BBQ sandwich in the county. My friend and I shared the pulled pork and chicken sandwiches with fries and a salad. The pulled pork was really good. We liked the chicken too but found the pork moister and better flavoured - the chicken was not quite as moist and had a bit too smoky a taste for us. Still good but just not our fav. They gave us a nice big tasty salad with fresh greens, strawberries, and nuts, and the fries were hot, salty, and cooked through. Yum! The only thing I would change is to ask for a little container of ketchup or (better) self-serve ketchup dispenser, because the two tiny packets of ketchup they gave me were sufficient for less than 1/4 of my fries (although we didnt notice there was aioli on the menu, would try that next time). Would probably give 4.5 stars if it was an option. Service was fast and there were picnic tables outside to enjoy our food. Thanks!

Outstanding brisket! This was honestly some of the most amazing bbq I have ever had. Stopped in for a brisket sandwich on my way into Wellington and had to go back the next day for more!
