Firebox Deli

I personally didn't like the mac and cheese but my sister in law did. Wasn't sure what to expect having been giving mixed reviews. Greens have too many stems and were too sweet as well. I ordered a brisket dinner. The brisket was tasty and tender. Now the $70 order we took elsewhere the brisket was tough. Didn't try the sides ordered with that. My mother in law said her rib tips were pretty good too! Gotta be honest!

My first time there and we got ribs brisket and most of the sides between three people. It was mother's day weekend and first nice day out. There was a ton of people there and so things were understandably slow. The girl working the front seemed unfazed and was friendly and efficient. Things in back were a bit heated I could hear. The brisket was great as were the ribs. They had a nice char and smoke. The ribs might have been a bit dry. The sides were all good. The sweet potato had a spice beside cinnamon that had us guessing but it was tasty. The potato salad and slaw were both tasty. The fries were fine but nothing special. What struck me is nothing was disappointing as is so often the case. We each had our favorites of the bunch but would probably get much the same next time. Several people were ordering rib tips and had great things to say but I am not a rib tip person unfortunately. Glad to see good take out food over North with great service that is a local place not another chain.

Some of the best bbq I’ve had in Minneapolis. Mac and cheese could be better. Everything else was 🔥🔥🔥 bbq sauce was a hit to and you have to get mommas extra hot sauce. Reasonable prices $20 for 2 meats w/ 2 sides. Very friendly service and the wait was only 15 minutes. Definitely worth checking out.

This place has #reallygoodbbq. The beef brisket is usually awesome as are the rib tips. I say usually because I have gotten bad beef brisket here on occasion. It’s rare but it does happen. Overall this place is better than some of the bigger BBQ chains. I highly recommend you stop in and get yourself some BBQ. Especially the beef brisket.

This place is the hope diamond of smoked meats! When you walk into the Deli you are greeted by the enticing scent of smoked goodness. The choices are simple and this tells me they know what they are good at. The first bite into my pulled pork melted me into a puddle from dicotomy of the tenderness of the meat and the blackened crispy smokey outsides. The sides offered match the quality of the bbq here. The mac and cheese had a coating of baked cheese on top followed by perfectly cooked noodles on the inside and the greens, ooh the greens, everything you could ask for. If you are looking for your next foodgasm look no further than this place!
