My family just recently moved from Atlanta and we tried Speak EZs BBQ for the first time. We were sort of anxious, coming from BBQ country, not knowing what to expect here in NW. The servers were very nice and helpful, and made us welcome right from the start. We ordered Okra as starter and the recommended dinner smoked plate. The food surpassed our expectations. The fried okra was just like home. The ribs were smoked just right, the chicken was juicy, the the pulled pork was so tender. Everything was topped with their own BBQ sauce, oh, soo good. The server had started us with some cornbread and sweet butter, I didn't feel home sick anymore. There was enough food for my husband, daughter and myself, and I must say that the food is very reasonable priced for the quality and quantity we got. We'll definitive will be back, as they have BBQ Spaghetti on the menu which I must try next time.
I would highly recommend Speak E-Z's. The food and service is great value for the money.
I absolutely LOVED Speak EZ's! I had always passed it on Meridian and I finally went in to try it out. I am originally from New Orleans, so I have had my fair share of Creole and BBQ meals. This was the closest thing I have had since. I was with three friends so we all got different plates to share. I had the pulled pork... FANTASTIC! But I also tried the ribs and the chicken. They were excellent as well. Tender, Juicy, really cooked well. Those who have written bad reviews must be missing their taste buds because this food was great, and the service was great too; very friendly staff. My cup was never empty and he chef even came out to say hi to everyone.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT!
Worst. BBQ. Ever.
Having never been, a few days ago I decided to try Speak EZ BBQ. Went there for lunch and ordered a sampler plate with ribs and brisket for $12.99. Seemed steep for lunch, but I figured that I'd get a half rack of ribs, some big slices of brisket and some sides.
Nope.
When the tiny plate arrived it had two small ribs and a small pile of brisket chopped into 1/2 inch cubes. There was also a small amount of cole slaw. The ribs were fatty and had that reheated-and-not-very-tasty thing going. The brisket was grey, watery, tough and virually tasteless. Watery? How does brisket get watery? The cole slaw turned out to be the best thing on the plate. Maybe I got last week's leftovers by mistake?
All I know is that I will never, ever, go there again and that I will commit the rest of my life to protecting other innocent people from this place. I know good BBQ. I make good BBQ I LOVE good BBQ. The stuff that Speak EZ BBQ served me was the worst BBQ I've ever had. EVER. It would've be overpriced if they had been giving it away. It may be worst food I've ever put in my mouth.
Every night since, my dreams have been full of that lunchtime horror.
