Best BBQ in Arizona. They also give you a lot of food. I ordered togo and this will last me two days. This is my new spot! Ot is a bit expensive, but so worth it.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The food came out amazingly fast - about 3-4 minutes for our appetizers. The food was SCRUMPTIOUS!!! The brisket was moist, the pulled pork was flavorful, and the dry rub on the chicken wings was surprisingly delish - you don't need the BBQ sauce because the food stands well on its own, BUT if you do use the sauce, then you definitely enter into another realm of flavor as it is yummy too. We've tasted everything but 5 things on the menu so far and could confirm that all have been great. The atmosphere is informal, fun, and clean. The lighting is dim, mostly rock music in the background (not too loud), has a bar area with TVs, indoor seating, and outdoor seating as well.

Porkopolis has excellent barbeque. I enjoy their Southwest Chowder a sweet cream corn chowder topped with smokey pulled pork. The porkopolis chef salad is the bomb. So taste with the smoked turkey and pulled pork. The Brady Bacon Burger with its ground bacon and beef Burger, strips of bacon topped with pulled pork, pepper jack cheese, BBQ aioli and coleslaw is a messy, tasty, carnivores dream.

My husband wanted to try a new place that he had heard about on the radio and I immediately cringed as this mode of recommendation has not always been reliable. I was delightfully surprised and extremely full after visiting this restaurant. The three meat plate with the ribs, brisket and chicken was so moist and meaty and additictively yummy we couldn't stop nibbling at it even after we had boxed the leftovers to take home! The pulled pork sandwich was so moist and smokey flavored it seemed to melt in my mouth. The staff was very attentive and we never had an empty beverage. I will be visiting this place again and telling all my friend to visit when they are in the neighborhood!

Porkopolis has been a staple in our dining out habits since we discovered it several years ago. We have always enjoyed the lunch specials, especially Tuesday's combo sandwich! Now we live further away than we used to, but my husband still begs to go for lunch every Tuesday and we do when our schedule allows. In addition to the great food - we have never found brisket that lives up to theirs - the service is amazing. This past year, they have gone above and beyond to help us celebrate on two separate holidays: Valentine's Day and Mother's Day. On Valentine's Day, they ran a great special that was supposed to be dine in only. However, we had a newborn baby and had just came home from the hospital. Still wanting to celebrate with a great meal, we contacted them and Matt arranged to let us pick up the meal! Mother's Day we packed up the baby to go in for another special they were running. Not realizing they closed earlier on Sundays, we walked in 5 minutes before 8 PM. When I mentioned we should go somewhere else, the host *insisted* that we stay and not feel rushed. He was incredibly attentive and really worked hard to make is feel welcome. We appreciated it so so much. We will always keep coming back!!

Brady Bacon Burger Challenge Review: Finish 3 burger patty, bacon, pulled pork, jalapeno coleslaw cheese burger. With a pound of fries, and a bowl of baked beans in under 35 minutes. Ambiance: 5/5 I went earlier in the day and it wasn't too crowded. It was a relaxed atmosphere. Taste: 5/5 This was the best tasting burger challenge I've done. The pulled pork on the burger was unbelievable. Challenge description: 5/5 Everything seemed about right, the videos I've seen on YouTube looked a little more uniform and not as sloppy, but it tasted great and there were no hidden surprises. Staff: 4/5 They were friendly and motivating but didn't seem to know much about the challenge and what it entailed. They also didn't keep time, so I used my own stop watch app. Time: 23:44 Difficulty: 2/5 Prizes: Free meal, and free shirt. I saw online that they also give a free bottle of sauce but I didn't receive one, that may have been changed. Best tasting burger I've had! Thanks, Juan Gonzales

Seated right away. Food was good. I had a chicken skillet! Price is fair for decent serving size! My server was super nice and even personalized my son and hubby take home boxes. I will go back to try some other dishes like nachos! Oh and the fried pickles are yummy!

My husband and I were running errands today and drove by Porkopolis in Chandler. We had never been there and decided to give it a try. The service was excellent! Our server, Q, was friendly, quick with a smile, has a great personality and happily and expeditiously handled all of our requests. The food was delicious! We ordered burgers and fries. They burgers were cooked to perfection and it was obvious that the ingredients were fresh and high quality. The atmosphere is fun, friendly, casual and comfortable. My husband had an IPA and I had a glass of wine, generously poured. The bill was beyond reasonable at a little over 23.00. Porkopolis provides a great dining experience, which I highly recommend. That being said, there are two main reasons that will be back. Number one, the presentation, taste and thickness of the burger was excellent! Number two, we will go back and request to be served by Q again, because he was on it. He is a great server and he made the dining experience wonderful. Thanks, Vanessa PS: Good job Brady and company!
