I was really excited to try this place. We got take out and when my partner arrived he questioned where the food was made from, as the place was that small. The food was not fresh. I got a shredded chicken sandwich, and it was extremely dry. There was a tiny squirt of the sauce, which the sauce itself wasn't that good.
Had the pleasure of getting food from this restaurant yesterday after visiting Cedar Point. Ordered the ribs, Mac & Cheese and Greens and everything tasted great! I must say the ribs were tender and greens were seasoned great, I most definitely will be back. Also the two young men that were working were very professional and polite!
The food was delicious! We were looking for barbecue while on vacation and came across this place. It did not disappoint. When we come back, we'll definitely be stopping here again.
If you enjoy BBQ, order here! There was only one employee working so it took about 20-25 minutes from the time we arrived to waiting in line, placing order, and receiving our order, but we weren't in any rush and our meal was well-worth the wait. The brisket, ribs, and pulled pork were fresh, hot, and delicious with sauce included right on each meat. Mac and cheese was creamy and flavorful. Cornbread was served as a cupcake which was fun for our little to enjoy. We also ordered nachos and cheese which were a big hit -- the chips appeared to be custom-seasoned and Derrick Jr has us wanting nachos & cheese with our BBQ now! There is minimal seating inside and Derrick Jr.'s shares a space with a Cookie Dough bar. We took our order outside in the courtyard and ate. Only first-world problem we encountered was we wish they had a fountain pop machine. Only bottled options of soda were available. We would still all happily go back and dine!
*uck, this guy.. is all we kept saying as we are shoving this masterpiece of his amazing sampler down our throats, Unfortunately for us this place is right around the corner, holy hell, the best BBQ I have ever had ever period. and I lived in St. Louis and was in the military down south with some wizards, this man is a jedi master, second to none. *uck, this guy has wicked skills.
Came through Sandusky for the day and wanted to try something from a small business. Came into Derrick Jr’s and talked to him about his experiences. His food was phenomenal. I got the Brisket Nachos and Collard Greens and let me say that I will definitely be going back whenever I’m next in the area! Thanks again for the great experience!
The pulled pork Mac & cheese is my current favorite bbq item. It’s so flavorful and tender. I also used to love his fried chicken, hibachi and yum yum chicken sandwich back when he had them on the menu. He’s also the first in Sandusky to have authentic Indian food options and I’m here for it!! If you’re having an Indian food craving you don’t need to go all the way to Cleveland. Derrick’s food will satisfy it! 10/10
