"In town from Miami for the day and was told to come here for lunch from a local. Didn't disappoint. Food was amazing. Had their pulled pork sandwich, homemade chips and bake beans. They have an assortment of sauces on the table. I had the Hot & Spicy mixed with the Carolina. The staff is so incredibly polite and friendly. Definitely has a hometown vibe where the customers know the people who work here. I only stopped in for a few minutes to grab a bite, but glad I did. Definitely better than the mainstream restaurants in the area."

"Braeden’s BBQ catered our wedding. Lauren and her mom catered and served the food to our hungry guests. They were amazing and super sweet. The food was amazing and very reasonably priced. Our family loves barbecue and Braeden’s did NOT disappoint! I highly recommend this place for lunch, dinner, and any type of event catering that requires great food!"

"We found this place while doing a search on the Internet. I'm glad we found it. It's a very small place and would be easily missed. It's definitely a local place that you have to know where you're going to find it. But boy is it worth it! The food was awesome! The serving size was huge and definitely worth the price. Staff was very friendly and the place was very clean. The only problem we could see is the same problem every local joint has- very limited space. We were lucky to get one of the last few tables available. But after tasting the food, I can see why. I would highly recommend and we will go back when we go back to Kingsport!"

"Absolutely the best BBQ on the planet, and awards to go with it. Bailey was awesome, I had left the house and completely forgot my wallet, I was going back to get it and she volunteered to pay for it from her own money…the staff are amazing. I always look forward to eating the best BBQ!!"

"We stopped by Braeden’s BBQ for a quick lunch during the workday and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They had us in and out in a timely manner without sacrificing quality or service. The food was excellent—flavorful, fresh, and clearly made with care. The prices were also very reasonable, especially for the portion sizes and quality. On top of that, the service was friendly, efficient, and welcoming. If you’re looking for great BBQ, fair prices, and fast service when you’re on a schedule, Braeden’s BBQ is definitely worth the stop."
