This Bham-based BBQ chain has some of the best brisket

Full Moon Bar-B-Que is no stranger to receiving praise for its delicious menu and top-tier service, and now, it’s got another accolade under its belt.

Tasting Table, a digital food and drink publication, has proclaimed that the Birmingham-based BBQ joint has some of the best brisket among chain restaurants.

To find the best brisket in the U.S., Tasting Table:

• Narrowed the list down to chains with 10+ locations
• Analyzed customer reviews + social media posts that specifically mentioned the brisket

Full Moon’s brisket, like many of the other items on its menu, is lauded for it consistency, portions and flavor.

“Others love the flavor that comes with the brisket, noting that it’s ideal for adding any one of a number of sauces to. Portions are filling, and if you opt for something like the brisket-topped baked potato, you might just find yourself with some stellar leftovers.

“While customers are occasionally disappointed to find that a particular location has run out of brisket for the day, it’s worth going out of your way for.”

The chain, which was founded in 1986, is currently celebrating its 40th anniversary and prides itself on “the fact that things are still pretty much the same as they were four decades ago, and that’s a true testament to a menu that keeps customers coming back again and again,” according to Tasting Table.

“Some say that it’s precisely what you need to make your day just a little bit better, and we all need those kinds of places in our lives, don’t we?”
