Met a friend here for lunch, the Ribs were fantastic perfect cook,amazing flavor. The pulled pork was also great very moist and flavorful. Im very particular about potato salad but their deviled egg potato salad was really good. The broccoli ceasar is a great concept but i was underwhelmed. We also tried the beef fat carmel wings they were must order! Overall really great BBQ joint in RTP 8.5/10 would eat here again!

Food is great! Boxyard RTP is a food court-type setup, so you order at one window and pickup at another. Great menu, lots of tasty sides. I had th pulled pork, which is smoked onsite. Deviled eggs ($1/2) were a solid add-on. The tangy slaw was pretty nice. Never had it with cilantro, but I liked it. Decent amount of heat. Very friendly counter staff at both windows. If you're meeting folks at Boxyard, it's a good bet!

Excellent food. The brisket is quite literally "melt in your mouth" delicious. The pulled pork is perfect, tender and tangy with Carolina sauce. The fries could have been hotter, but they're seasoned well. The beans, delicious, The cilantro on top a really nice touch. The Cole slaw was a vinegar based slaw that is excellent. The ribs quite tender and sweet No bad choices.

Ok hot honey chicken sandwich I was expecting a good sandwich, but I got a GREAT one. I don't even think I have words to describe how good this was. It was perfectly crispy, juicy and full of ALL the flavors. I didn't include a photo of the fries lol but they were good too! Very well seasoned, and there were a ton of them. The service was great! We ended up waiting a little longer because I think our order got skipped over somehow, but when I went up to ask about 15min after we out in the order, a girl said that it was coming right up and that she was so sorry for the mix up and gave me a banana pudding for free because we waited. She deff did not have to do that, but I so appreciated it. (I LOVE banana pudding) The vibe of the area is cool because there is so many good places and places to sit up or downstairs. The night we went there was live music which was cool too! The only thing I would advise is that you go here with multiple people and get different items so that you can have a tasting of more goodness! I should have done that, but I don't regret anything about the sandwich, so I can't complain! My mind will be on this sandwich until I can have it again, which is hopefully sooner rather than later Thank you for this flawless creation

Tried them for the first time today, for breakfast! I had the hot chicken on blueberry, wife had the pulled pork on brown sugar biscuit. Both were amazingly good and fresh. Still warm when I got them home. Also nabbed the cinnamon holes, they were dangerously good! :D Located in RTP Boxyard off of Hwy 54, just a great spot with lots of ourdoor seating, and a variety of eats to be had there. Coffee shops, Korean BBQ, bakeries, Wine bars, beer & pizza spot. Like a Brightleaf Square kinda place, but not much retail, just food & drink mostly. Which is fine by us! We'll be back to Lawrence for lunch/dinner soon, especially since it's warming up. A great spot, we'll be patrons for life!
