Davis Boyz BBQ

Today I want to tell you about Davis Boyz BBQ in Suffolk, VA. We just happened to notice them recently and finally have been able to check them out. This is a family owned and run food trailer. For anyone familiar with Suffolk, they’re in the parking lot of the old Bunny’s Restaurant on Wilroy Road right at Route 58. Reggie, Karen and their teenaged son work the trailer. All three of them are wonderful people. I was truly impressed with their son and how well he worked with people. What an awesome young man.

Pork BBQ Plate with Smoked Mac & Cheese and Baked Beans.

We ended up making three trips here so we could get a good sampling to write about. You know that I had to wait for the brisket. The good part of that was getting to know Reggie and Karen better. So let me try to explain our meals.

Our Choices at Davis Boyz BBQ:

On our first stop at Davis Boyz BBQ, they were out of Brisket and Slaw. No problem for a first visit and them being so close to home. Tammy ordered a Smoked Chicken Plate with Green Beans and Smoked Mac & Cheese. The mac & cheese was wonderful. The flavor was great, and it had plenty of cheese. I also thought the green beans were killer. They were seasoned and cooked just right. But the smoked chicken was phenomenal. It was a large leg quarter and I do mean very large. The smoke and the seasoning were awesome. I’m not a huge chicken fan but I was thrilled when Tammy only ate the thigh and gave me the leg. It was very tender and flavorful all the way through. Just an excellent job on the chicken.

Just a note here. All the entries are served on a bed of seasoned rice. I know that sounds odd to many out there, but all I can say is have an open mind and try it. It’s cooked with smoked chicken and Reggie’s special spices, so it’s not just plain rice. We asked him why he serves everything on the rice, and he told us that he didn’t want to serve BBQ on a plate like everyone else, so he started using rice. It was surprising to us the first time, but now we look

forward to it.

Ribs with Smoked Mac & Cheese and Baked Beans.

On this trip I ordered a Pork BBQ Plate with Smoked Mac & Cheese and Baked Beans. The baked beans were so good. Made with a sweet BBQ type of sauce but not too sweet. I’ll definitely order them again. The BBQ was chopped fine but not minced. It had a great smoke flavor, along with some really good seasoning. Seemed to almost have a slight sweet taste to it, possibly

from the wood choice. It was wonderful. I’d say we’re off to a great start and there’s more to come.

More Choices at Davis Boyz BBQ:

Like I said, we made a total of three trips to Davis Boyz BBQ to be able to sample everything. This worked out pretty good for us.

On our 3rd visit we finally were able to get the slaw. Tammy and I both agree the slaw is fantastic. It has a creamy mayo base yet has a very slight hint of vinegar. We both loved it. And the smoked mac & cheese still holds as one of our favorites.

This time I had the Spareribs. Still no brisket so Tammy ordered Pork BBQ. The ribs were great. I loved the rub. It had just enough pepper in it. The smoke and the texture were fantastic. These ribs were just wonderful. Thus far I’m loving this new find in our backyard.

Brisket with Smoked Mac & Cheese and Slaw.

So finally on our third trip, Tammy got the Brisket she’d been waiting for. I decided to try the Beef Rib. The brisket was sliced to a medium thickness. It comes with a sweet sauce on it. This was our first try with their sauce, and it is very good. They use just a little to highlight the meat’s flavor. And that flavor is wonderful.

Remember, we’ve been waiting two weeks to try the brisket. The smoke and seasoning really enhanced the meat.

Last but certainly not least was a large Beef Rib. I loved this rib. Usually, I don’t order them because of their size. I just don’t think a half-eaten rib looks good in a take-out box. Well I took care of this one so no worries about the box. This rib was big and meaty, not a lot of fat, just a lot of flavor. My thought after the first bite was, yea, I’ll do this again. Once again, the smoke and the seasoning were great.

Final Thoughts on Davis Boyz BBQ:

So now I believe we’ve tried everything except for the sausages. Davis Boyz BBQ has two different types. I’m sure I’ll try them at some point. But as you can tell, we love this place. And it’s close enough that we can carry the food back home to enjoy. Of course, they are in a large parking lot where you can enjoy your food also. I recommend you give this one a try and see what you think.

A couple of very important notes here. They are only open Wednesday, Friday and Saturday currently. Be sure to check their Facebook page before driving a long distance. They do sell out. And they seem to keep people updated on their page.

Now For Your Thoughts:

I can’t wait to hear back from some readers. They are new here, but my guess would be when you sell out you are serving a lot of people. So let us know what you think. What are your favorites? Scroll down the page and leave your

comments. I’ll get them posted as soon as possible.

 

I look forward to hearing from you.
