Long Shot BBQ

The food isn't even hot, if they were going to serve yesterday's food, they could've at least heated it up coming straight from the restaurant. Now I'm at work with food I can't eat. This mac & cheese is horrible. I would never expect potato salad like this from a place that says Texas barbecue. The brisket Is lacking flavor the Cornbread is good. Edit: I heated the brisket up and got a good taste, it is so dry. I see why they didn't want to heat it up. Also, this potato salad is absolute trash. I'm really disappointed. The prices don't match the quality for $26 I should've had food that was cooked today. I see they replied I stand by what I said. I've been cooking for over 30 years. Nothing about this food was prepared today.

I had been eager to try them, as I've been on the hunt for some good tasting BBQ ribs lately. They popped up on my search several time's, but were always closed after my work schedule. I ordered a Rib single platter with one side and cornbread. I liked that the sauce was on the side and not drenched over the ribs. That allowed for me to really get a good taste on the ribs. You can get a good pull on the ribs, they were cooked very well. I had the mild and spicy sauce on the side. The two sauces were pretty good. However, there is a particular taste (flavor) on the ribs that just didn't hit me right. They didn't lack salt, they do have a rub that has flavor on them, but one of those flavors really stand apart. 🤔.... I tasted the macaroni and cheese and to my avail, I could taste that same flavor. It's like a smokey flavor but not, if it makes any sense. As I tasted a little bit more, I think it's smoked paprika (I could be wrong) but that flavor profile is so overpowering. I honestly couldn't finish eating the platter. I believe for me that if that particular stand alone flavor was not visibly present in the taste, those ribs would have been even better. Again the cook on them are tender, not dry, pull the meat from the bone, but that other flavor messed it up for me. I'll keep on searching for some good ribs here in Philly. The macaroni & cheese was good. The cheese flavor was simple, not extra with 20 different cheeses like some people do to mask that they cannot make baked macaroni and cheese. This was a good simple recipe used, with the exception of that particular flavor profile. I'm not 100% sure if it's smoked paprika or what, but I'm not a fan of it in my baked macaroni & cheese. The pasta was cooked good and the cheese was distributed evenly. There are other ways to build a smokey, flavor profile. The ribs could be cooked in liquid smoke. Liquid smoke is a flavoring agent that gives foods a smoky flavor without using actual wood smoke. It's a natural product that's been made for hundreds of years. Or one can use Worcestershire sauce, which is a fermented condiment that adds tang and umami to savory dishes. It's a thin, brown sauce with mustard- and cherry-colored undertones. Just a thought 🤷🏾‍♂️

Ordered over the phone. Service over the phone was great! Order was accurate and a very easy quick pickup. The food was delicious! The bbq sauce is perfectly spicy and the brisket melted on your tongue 😋. The chicken seasoning had different bites of herby spices to sweet. A fun party in your mouth. The Mac and cheese is sooooo creamy and soft🤤. Honestly the best Mac and cheese I’ve had in a very long time. The greens taste like somebody’s auntie put her foot in that pot😮‍💨 !!!!!! Man awe man the sides alone are a meal on their own!!! Definitely our new bbq spot!! Reasonably priced *Two meats: brisket/chicken with a side and cornbread=$17.99🤯* worth it for sure!!!

Dry everything! Meat lacked flavor cornbread was hard as tack! Never again! This was the full platter for two meats and french fries for $27 and change. This was not worth it! Some of these reviews are fake or I coincidentally ordered nasty food on a very very bad day! My brisket was like jerky and greyish 🙄just annoyed

Full Rack Ribs were not tender at all it's actually quite tough and the flavor feels like it’s over compensating for the quality of the meat. The Long Shot Loaded Fries With Brisket had no flavor at all and was quite dry. The Macaroni And Cheese was NOT good at all not even a little bit, no flavor, dry and burnt the definitely need to work on that recipe for a bit before selling it. The only saving grace was the Homemade Strawberry Lemonade and the Collard Greens. If you’re going for just those two things then this is the spot for you.

I gave this place 2 tries before writing a review. So for $23 this is the deluxe brisket platter. I feel like for Philly you can find better places for your buck as Philly has some of the best food spots! The sugar cookie looks dry and over cooked but it’s actually moist and delicious! The corn bread both times has been try af. Let down down a bbq spot. The Mac and collard greens are good but again for $23 they skimpy af for a Philly spot. A spoon full ain’t doin it over here ya heard!! The meat isn’t cooked in the bbq sauce either I’m assuming that’s cause they give u options for mild, spicy, and keto. Skip the apple bread whatever it’s called it’s not worth the extra coins. Fry and bland. Same with Chco taco, I ate ur before I could get a pic it was just okay..Overall it’s a solid 3 outta 5. Brisket is moist and decent.

The ladies at the counter was very pleasant I ordered the brisket with no sauce I'm from Texas i give it a 1. No smoke flavor, extremely dry, and the bottom bun is hard as a rock. The link sausage had a little bit of taste but zero smoke flavor. Cornbread is not bread it's cake. that's a zero for me. the greens were good. Now I know why it's called Long Shot. I knew when I didn't smell bbq when I got there, it was a problem. I give the food a 1. I'm glad I didn't buy more

I was a little nervous after seeing the reviews but all things considered this was pretty good bbq. Best I’ve ever had? No, but not nearly as bad as some people on here make it seem. The meat was slightly dry but we ordered take out so it was expected. Would order again, and definitely enjoyed the meal. I may pass on the cornbread next time though, a little sweet for my taste.
