On my first and only visit i had the brisket dinner which comes with three sides. The mac and cheese is delicious!! You can check out their website here www.4rbbq.com They have an amazing story with the majority of their proceeds going to charity Tue Nov 03 05:59:28 -0800 2009 170247 fsupilam33 1 5152985 Finally. I've been excited to try this place, glad to hear its great. I'll be checking it out soon. How are the prices? Tue Nov 03 13:44:46 -0800 2009 5151487 236031 melpadilla 2 5155491 On my first visit I got the brisket dinner which came with three sides. that was $11.99. I went back yesterday and got 10 smoked wings for $6.99. the wings are phenomenal. so tender and juicy. pick up an order of six when you go.....trust me. Also on my last visit I noticed a darker meat they had in between the pulled pork and pulled chicken. I asked what it was and it was meat for the Burnt Ends sandwhich. It was heavly smoked portions of the "ends" of both brisket and pork. It tasted fantastic and my next order will def. be the brunt ends sandwich. Regular sanwhiches are $6.99 plus two sides. The lines have been really long and it can take about 15mins to go through it, but i think it is worth it. Enjoy Wed Nov 04 10:51:11 -0800 2009 5152985 170247 fsupilam33 3 5155860 Excellent info. I saw the wings on the menu and thought the preperation sounded fantastic so glad to hear they really are. Aww, the burnt end sandwich sounds heavenly. Wed Nov 04 12:36:50 -0800 2009 5155491 236031 melpadilla 3 5163609 Brisket dinner is now increased to $12.99, let's hope this is not a trend. Shane's in Maitland did the same thing (increased their prices every time I went in there for a month) and now you can't find a customer in there. Sat Nov 07 12:40:57 -0800 2009 5155491 217585 kinglouix 4 5166118 Shane's Rib Shack as in the faux bbq chain? Most concepts started under Raving Blands (Brands) are mediocre. But RB has made some good money selling Moe's Southwestern to Focus (Carvel) and Shanes to another investor.

Thu Nov 05 08:30:01 -0800 2009 5151487 1121960 hoofnit 1 5159967 Tried it out for dinner tonight. The brisket was outstanding. the Jalepeno Poppers were very good. The cornbread average. Thu Nov 05 20:34:00 -0800 2009 5151487 121312 herbert1 2 5160237 How long was the wait? I've passed 4Rivers twice now since it opened, once at night, once at lunchtimes, and saw long lines both times. RonaGindin.com Fri Nov 06 03:26:59 -0800 2009 5159967 239201 Rona Gindin 3 5160311 I hit it at a lull, went at 6:30, and only a 5 minute wait, but when I left at 7, there was a line three times as long. It's definitely good stuff, and with the dearth of good bbq places in Orlando, I don't expect it to die down anytime soon. Fri Nov 06 04:58:25 -0800 2009 5160237 121312 herbert1 4 5160324 On my way! Fri Nov 06 05:09:05 -0800 2009 5160311 239201 Rona Gindin 5 5160523 they do a pretty good job of keeping the line moving as well. i'm actually thinking of getting their large turkey for thanksgiving Fri Nov 06 06:54:16 -0800 2009 5160324 170247 fsupilam33 6 5161007 I think they are gonna be absolutely slammed for thanksgiving, given the quality and taste of what I have experienced so far with the meat. Fri Nov 06 09:27:35 -0800 2009 5160523 121312 herbert1 1 5162381 Are you kidding me? I could kiss the ground. Finally a BBQ place in Orlando where I didn't feel like jumping over the counter and punching the cook in the face. This is the worst food city in America, full of chain restaurants and chefs that can't understand how to flip a burger; until now. The brisket was bar none the best I've ever had. The pulled pork is good but not nearly at the level of the brisket. The sides were very servicable. Fries are crinkle cut and not bad. Beans where good as was Mac and Cheese. The brisket alone is worth a drive for miles. If you ever eat again at Sony's, Roach Boys, Bubbalou's or any of the other terminal bbq spots in central florida, you should have your tongue cut out. The only drawback I see is that you eat only outside, which works November through March. What do you do the other 7 months when it is 95 degrees with 95% humidity? I guess, I answered my own question, you take it out. Also, sweet tea is good with real lemon. We are so starved for anything edible in Orlando: Thank you 4 RIVERS. Fri Nov 06 17:23:19 -0800 2009 5151487 217585 kinglouix 2 5162846 Went back last night. Had the pork, decent but not as good as brisket. Chicken wings were very good. Baked beans were average, cheese grits were poor, fried pickles were fantastic. Sat Nov 07 02:40:49 -0800 2009 5162381 121312 herbert1 3 5164375 I met one of the managers today at an off-site tasting - he told me they smoke the brisket for 18 hours. Then I tasted it. Simply amazing stuff. They made a believer out of me... Sat Nov 07 20:15:53 -0800 2009 5162846 220202 orlwine 2 5198332 Went back again yesterday, the brisket is still worth driving hours for. Sat Nov 21 09:14:40 -0800 2009 5162381 217585 kinglouix 1 5166580 I went over the weekend and thought it was excellent, even though I had to wait roughly 10 minutes in line. I had the Burnt End Sandwich, which was excellent. So good, I didn't even need any of the BBQ sauce. I also really enjoyed the Baked Beans. Saw the desserts, but I didn't try any. They looked good though!
