What Folks are Saying about Home Team BBQ in Greenville
SCBA Review
The SC BBQ Association, the very organization that trains judges for local BBQ competitions, ranks Home Team BBQ among the elite of BBQ in SC, 100-mile BBQ: BBQ so good its worth driving 100 miles for.
Here’s how they began their review:
What do you get when you take 100-mile barbeque, ribs, and chicken wings then add gourmet mac and cheese, collards, Brunswick stew, slaw, and fun? You get Home Team BBQ, that’s what you get.

Most really good barbeque in the state is served in traditional restaurants or even what we in South Carolina would call a “joint.” It is rare to find 100-mile barbeque in a bar or tavern-style setting.
But that is what you get at Home Team BBQ in Charleston. But it’s better than that, it’s really more like a neighborhood tavern where you go to have a good time, relax and see friends.
It’s just at Home Team BBQ you also get 100 Mile Barbeque to add to that mix.
We got a big variety called “The board” since I have family in town. Everything was tasty, even the turkey which I didn’t even want originally.
Mac and cheese is a bit different than what I’m used to. It was a refreshing change.
Ribs and wings are so good they don’t need any sauce, which was a struggle since the sauces were good, particularly the mustard.
Yelp Review
Over on Yelp, Samantha C offers the very first review for Home Team BBQ in Greenville:
We have been waiting for this place to open so we drove by and it was. They were packed and per Amanda had not even announced their opening and the grand opening was next week.
First time visiting a Home Team BBQ and I was pleasantly surprised. Great vibe and a FULL bar with an impressive tequila, bourbon, whiskey, rye selection.
I was told to get the burger and thought…hmmmm, should I get a burger at a bbq joint? Per Adam, “we are not a BBQ joint, we are a restaurant that smokes meat.”

What I liked most about the cookbook is the research and backstories. Even though I grew up on Lexington NC BBQ, you’ve got to get this cookbook as there is much more variety to BBQ in SC, If you can’t decide, this is a labor of love, with a lot of volunteer time and input.… Read more “BY LOCALS FOR LOCALS”
