Ray Rays Hog Pit - Columbus

Great BBQ! Can't go wrong with the meat sweats I drive all the way from Pittsburgh to come here a couple times a year so that's saying something! Nice service and can eat outside or in the bar next door!

This BBQ is absolutely delicious. It has a more southern flavor the City BBQ, I suppose because it is cooked outside over coals. The only way to do it right!

I saw this place on Triple D with Guy Fiery and thought we would give it a try. I found out that after our visit, they have multiple locations in the area. We stopped at the original location in Clintonville. It appears all the locations are walkup or drive through. This location is behind a bar called Ace of Cups. The sign said there is seating on the patio or inside. We went inside the bar and there was 1 small Hightop table with 3 barstools. You can get alcohol beverages in the bar, or you can eat on the patio. The food truck has bottled water/ pop. The food is cooked on site. My wife had a brisket sandwich and collared greens. The greens were a little salty. My son had the brisket sandwich, too, and I had the St. Louis ribs with the sweet sauce with a side of baked beans. The sauce and beans both were a little too sweet for me. Everything was delicious and excellent. It's a little expensive, but it is BBQ. I will be back for sure.

I am so sad that I wasted my time and money to come here. The menu had very few selections. The ribs (I tried both) were beyond dry and definitely did NOT fall off the bone. The side dishes were awful to be honest. Overly sweet baked beans and very bland greens. Don’t waste your time here. If you want a great selection of ribs, brisket, and sausage, head over to Texassteele food truck instead. I want my money back!!

If you’re eating barbecue in Columbus it’s not at Ray Ray’s, you’re doing it wrong. This place is the best. The brisket, burnt ends pulled pork are so good you’ll think you’ve been transported to Texas or North Carolina.
