Buckys Bar-B-Q

Really good authentic, traditional BBQ. Pulled pork is awesome, Mac n cheese, sweet potato crunch is amaaaazing! Great size portions, sweet tea was also very good. Nothing fancy about it, just great barbecue. I’ll be back for sure!

Great Bbq joint. Ideal place to get your lunch if your work near the Donaldson center complex. Pulled pork serving with Mac’n’cheese and sweet potato crunch is going to leave your tongues tingling for more. Highly recommend.

Great bbq joint, I’ve been here a few times while working in the area. I have only had the pork plate. Very good Carolina bbq flavor, big Portions, and lots of sides to choose from. If you’re near definitely give em a try.

A must stop lunch spot is your in the area.
GREAT BBQ, and make sure to get the sweet potato casserole.

These guys are great and the food was wonderful. Generous portions!!! We arrived just before closing and they stayed open for us.

This was my first time here. It was good so I’ll be back! We arrived late and they were running out of meats…
The pork was very good and they give you a lot of it! Yes they smoke it! Sauces, they had tomato sauce and as you’d expect a mustard sauce. But they also a
Vinegar Sauce, a nice peppered vinegar sauce. This is what you want to put on your pork folks! They do a great job with the pork IMO.
The beans were good but not anything to write home about.
Now the Sweet Potato Crunch was another story. I really enjoyed it!
Disappointed no Banana Pudding

Top shelf BBQ
Hidden away around Donaldson is this fantastic spot for a quality meal
Combo plate was amazing
Rib Dinner awesome
Sweet potatoes were the best I’ve ever eaten
Potato salad was tasty. Great green beans
Baked beans were so good
Smoke flavor was right on
Still can’t get over how good the price is …
So happy I know how to find this place.
A gem.

You mention Bucky’s with my work colleagues most people acknowledge it in a hungry anticipation! It’s merely a shack that serves some good down home hickory smoked southern BBQ. Sure they cook their meats at the main location (off Roper Mountain) but it’s brought everyday fresh and tasty! They offer ribs, chicken and of course pulled pork! Their sides are quite delicious also. On my visit I went with a PP sandwich with Mac and cheese with sweet potato crunch! Serving size is good not insane but a good portion
They do have two types of BBQ sauce, one a Carolina mustard yellow blend, the other a tomato blend. Both have a good tangy flavour of sweet with a slight vinegar tinge!
I recommend you get here early in the lunch hour as it can get quite busy! They have run out of ribs once on an earlier visit if you get here late after 1 pm-​ish
Also make sure you have a coffee or double espresso in the afternoon at that 2pm time as it’s a heavier lunch!
Good stuff boys and some good BBQ!

I always try and hit up this place when I’m in Piedmont on business.
No frills. Limited menu but what a great menu. Cafeteria style, you order at the counter and serve yourself an iced tea. Mostly picnic table type tables. Diverse crowd at lunch time.
Ribs, pulled pork, and barbecue chicken. I believe that’s about it. There are combo plates where you combine two items. You also get two generous portions for sides. You can have the pulled pork as a sandwich I believe.
I did the pulled pork and chicken combo with cucumber salad and potato salad. Tasty and fresh. They have a red and a yellow sauce available and apparently a hot sauce which you have to ask for.
I believe this location is only open for lunch.

I had the pork plate and it was really good. I’d definitely go back.

I had their chicken and pork plate with coleslaw and sweet potato crunch as my sides. The pork is my favorite. They use fresh and never frozen pork.
