Hands down the BEST brisket in town, and everything else we had was tops, too! The turkey had a peppery kick, the baked beans were one-of-a-kind, the brisket burger is unforgettably good, and the Alabama sauce took the pulled pork to another level. The folks making the food and serving it up are friendly and definitely know what they are doing! Highly recommended. We’ll be back!

Best brisket I’ve had outside of Texas. Get yourself a double order of Mac and cheese because it is heavenly. I’ve ordered from their pop ups and have gotten catering from them and it has always been stellar food and service.

I have had wells station bbq multiple times and it never disappoints!! Pulled pork, brisket, wings, Mac and cheese. You can not go wrong with anything they make! Can’t wait till warmer months again to find another pop up! If I could give them a 10 star review I would!!

Far and away the BEST barbecue in Knoxville! Amazing flavor, so tender, and juicy. Cannot wait to try it again! And to top it all off, they were SO kind, personable, warm, and helpful. A truly 10/10 experience all around!

Fantastic food! The brisket was great, good flavor and texture and the price was very fair. Sides were great as well! Best BBQ I've had in a while.

This is the best BBQ I have had in my entire life! Is gourmet BBQ a thing? Because that’s the only way to describe it. Particularly a fan of their brisket and Alabama white sauce. His crew loves to chat with you and will let you take your time exploring your options/ asking questions. We will definitely be stalking their pop up schedule in the New Year! Check them out!

I had the privilege to enjoy this BBQ at the AMBC Fall Festival. Their brisket is to die for! I was in heaven. Their beautiful mobile smoker is also an incredible sight to behold. 5/5 for sure!
