What recent reviews say

Brothers-N-Arms BBQ delivers reliably good meat and sides for catering events and individual orders alike. Guests come back weeks later still talking about the food. The owner Joel and his team (Luis, CC) handle setup, timing, and communication without fuss, whether it's a wedding, corporate event, or backyard party.

Beyond the core BBQ, they offer seafood boils, catfish, and menu items like Philly sandwiches and quesadillas. The baked beans taste homemade with cinnamon and sweetness, and the ribs come tender without overwhelming smoke. Most plates land squarely in the good-to-excellent range, though portion sizes on sandwiches and a few sides divide opinion slightly.

Praised for
  • food consistently hot and fresh
  • tender meat cooked well
  • friendly owner and staff (Joel, Luis, CC named)

Keller's Real Smoked Bar-B-Q Lake Mary

4.4(937)✓ Google-verified

Keller's delivers consistently good smoked meats and sides that keep people coming back. Pulled and sliced pork shine, sauces are homemade, and staff are usually attentive. Limited seating and occasional service friction at this Lake Mary location are minor trade-offs for fast turnaround and solid food at fair prices.
