First time trying out this restaurant after being told about it. So I decided to do the half a chicken with a side of macaroni and cheese and baked beans. It was absolutely delicious. The chicken is also covered with their Carolina/mustard sauce. Absolutely delicious to die for and I'm truly coming back soon. It's a shame that barbecue is really only popular for the most part on the weekends and they only open on the weekends. But I truly understand making people wait for a quality product. Next time I might just just pull up and try the ribs. But I encourage anyone reading this to definitely go out there and try the food. It's quite good!

Pete's is a must have, they make some of the best barbecue pork ribs, and chicken. It is so delicious juicy and flavorful. I will definitely recommend them any day anytime the barbecue is always on point. Never a bad visit. Please try them and support if you like delicious scrumptious barbecue!!!

The BBQ Ribs are the best !!! Service was a little slow at first but then they picked up and we had an amazing experience thanks for everything will come back one day

Sooooo Good. Some of the best BBQ I've had in YEARS!! I only wish the Mac and Cheese portion were larger. Even with inflation it's still reasonably priced. Definitely recommend.

As soon as you pull into the parking lot you can smell BBQ. You walk inside it's only takeout option. A dinner plate was $21 and comes with two sides and two slices of white Bread. My only regret when I left was not getting more BBQ or trying the chicken.

After seeing this gem on YouTube, we knew we had to visit Pete's when we visited the area. It's in a house in a mixed retail and residential area. With large black smokers outside, you can't miss it. We thought we would order a light lunch but we quickly discovered there is no such thing as light at Pete's. LOL! We ordered 2 rib sandwiches and 2 chicken sandwiches along with different desserts. The entrees were served piled WAY high over white bread in a white styrofoam. The bread is sort of hidden but needed to accommodate the tangy sauce we chose. It was too much sauce for my liking but my husband loves sauce so he was happy. Each plate could easily serve 2 people. While the ribs were tender and flavorful, my favorite was the chicken. It was soooo soooo good. You can't go wrong no matter how you choose. While there on that rainy day, traffic was flowing in and out which spoke volumes. We spent 8 minutes from the time we entered, ordered and left. Quick! An oh don't be alarmed by the loud meat chopping in the back. That's the sound of BBQ love, which brought back old memories from our hometown of Memphis. Keep up the good work, Pete.

I was traveling from the west coast and someone on YouTube said we had to try this place. Holy Smokes this place was one of the best BBQ places I've had in my life!!! Ribs and chicken were amazing, and that homemade yellow tangy bbq sauce is something you gotta try. Additionally these folks were very kind. Just a heads up no where to sit so you gotta take it to go but I would 1000% recommend this place, and that's coming from someone who knows a thing or two about smoking bbq. Quality offset smokers and white oak lined up cooking in the parking lot, very impressive!!!

BEST ribs I've EVER had! My wife and I both ordered the rib sandwich, which consisted of about 5 to 6 large ribs, two slices of white bread, and we chose two different BBQ sauces --- original (red) and tangy (mustard based), BOTH of which were absolutely DELICIOUS. The ribs were seasoned and smoked to perfection. We also tried the mac and cheese and potato salad, both of which were very good. Even the lemonades we ordered were delicious. I've had some good ribs in my day, but these were by FAR the best.

The pictures were taken after we already dug into it because the smell was too intoxicating to wait to take proper photos. It tastes absolutely delicious! The chicken is tender, the sauce hits the spot and isn't too overwhelming, and the bread in the bottom finishes it off. This is definitely one of the best bbq spots I've been too. Better then the chain bbq spots in town.

This is your stereotypical hole-in-the-wall joint that excels at one thing - BBQ. My friend and I were at the annual Ligonier conference and stopped by here afterwards for lunch before driving back to Atlanta. Afterwards, I told my friend that it's worth it to drive every year to Ligonier just to eat here. The building and interior is, how shall I say it, quite humble. Don't come here expecting any fancy building. They only allow 3 people inside at a time, so there was a short line outside. They also only take cash. Menu is simple. From the other reviews, it appeared the consensus is just to get the ribs. So, I ordered the rib sandwich. I originally was wondering, "$15 for a sandwich?" Then I saw what they meant by sandwich is two sandwich bread slices hidden under a plateful of ribs. My friend and I agreed this was the best ribs we've ever had. No exaggeration. Meat actually did fall off the ribs, unlike other places that claim that but fail to deliver. Smoke flavor was excellent. Sauce was great and I thought the perfect amount to not drown the smoke flavor. Neither of us could finish it in one sitting. The amount of ribs you get is more than I eat at a rib buffet. To top it all off, we had a great chat with Pete who was overseeing the smoker outside. What a gem Orlando has with this BBQ location.
