This is the first time I have been disappointed when eating at Deet's. I ordered the chopped salad and in the past the salad had garbanzo beans and cornbread croutons - this time neither item was included.

Our salads were brought to our table in a bag even though we're said we were dining in and there wasn't and utensils or napkins provided.

My biggest disappointment, I was told Deet's no longer honors a 50% discount when wearing a Deet's t-shirt.

What happened to Deet's?

Expanded and you became too big, too fast and you are trying to find ways to cut back on the

This is the second time that I've ordered from here and the second time that I've received my order without a fork. I spoke with someone from the restaurant to make sure they didn't do this again BUT. I believe it was don intentionally

First time ordering Deet's by delivery, last week. We are long time fans of this great BBQ place. This order had a full rack, a pound of brisket and no sides. The rack seemed a little smaller than usual and was somewhat dry / overcooked. The brisket was all bits and small pieces, no slices and very greasy. Flavors were good overall. Not the usual great experience we expect.

This place was extremely lackluster in terms of service but especially in terms of the food. Quality, Taste, and Portions were horrible and the staff members were oblivious.

In addition, we were overcharged for both entrees as well as for an item we did not receive and the location had no condiments for the items we ordered. I reached out to corporate and never received a response.

Do not waste your time nor money at this location.

I had the big Pete and the wife had a one hand pulled pork sandwich. We split a nacho but it was way too big for the two of us. Great portions the barbecue was fantastic and the people at the counter were super helpful and patient with us. We will certainly be coming back!

Great food. I order over the phone for convenience and to get in and out fast, but have to stand in the same line as people who walk in and haven't placed their order. When you are six deep with undecided customers it takes quite a while to get your carryout. Take a page out of Shorty's book, create a line for just pick up. Reward those who order on line. Also, change tipping options on credit card check out. Sorry but I don't know anyone that's going is going to give 15%, 18% or 20% on a pick up order. I understand you don't want customers touching the screen, but I would

We ordered through Yelp (how convenient!) and had our order delivered by Grub Hub. I was particularly impressed with how quickly our order arrived.

We ordered a "platter" with pulled pork, salad, and a vegetable side. I didn't try it myself but it was reported to be quite good, and judging from how quickly it disappeared, I would think the report is true.

I ordered chicken with sweet sauce. The sauce is a bit tangy (it is a barbeque restaurant, after all) but overall sweet. My weak taste buds not only tolerated the sauce but enjoyed it.

When I find myself returning to Maumee,

Finally! GOOD RIBS! They're actually really slow smoked, not just advertised as smoked. These ribs are good, good, good
The wings are big and also smoked right. The chopped salad is perfect, the tomatoes, cucumbers and carrots are cubed do they mixed into the salad perfectly. The salad needs something, though. Like, broccoli, or maybe crispy pepperoni or something, to make it stand out because it's already a step above with the preparation
I'm really impressed with this order and will be ordering again.

I want to love Deet's! I love BBQ but every time I get Deets it's a disappointment. Every year I hit them up at the rib off and I'm always glad I did. But, for some reason that same delicious never translates to their Maumee location. I had runny beans and pulled pork that was mostly fat and grizzle. The time before that I had shoe leather brisket. The two stars are for the friendly staff and decent pricing. If you want mediocre bbq this is your spot! I just wish they would deliver the rib off quality food at their Maumee location. Don't expect anything fancy, it's carry

I just noticed I marked this place as checked in but never let a review. I was on s road trip a few years ago but I remember stopping off at this place. This was in my top 10 places I've ever had bbq from. I had the ham, pulled pork, and ribs, Mac n cheese. It was all really really good and if I ever drive back by this place I'll be stopping in again

Can't give 0 stars. Worst ever, dry,burnt taste, potato salad was ok.
I had a platter of ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Brisket was shredded no flavor, extremely dry and looked to be a week old. There were 4 ribs left two behind fatty and just as dry and stale as the beef. Tried to eat the so called pulled pork, left it all behind. Even trying to smother it in what tasted like store bought sauce didn't help..Wish I went to McDonald's at least you know what you are in for. Spent 20 dollars. Bad choice.

This used to be my favorite spot for ribs until yesterday! We have not gotten carryout from here in about 9 months so we were really looking forward to it however we were very disappointed!
Hubs brought home a rack of ribs for dinner last night and they were awful. So much fat that we had to throw away most of the ribs! I don't know if they changed their supplier or what but we won't be getting ribs from here anymore! Potato salad was still awesome. They ran out of their homemade butter for their corn bread muffins too! Bummer.

I have never actually eaten here, but our company had the food catered to us and it was fantastic. The pulled pork was very good and their bread and butter was good. They also had a very good corn salsa. Will definitely try it out at the actual restaurant sometime

Shouldn't mix the lettuce, jalapeƱo, and onion for the nachos. Should come separately so that way it can be asked for without. Chips were stale and honestly the worst kind of chip for nachos. I would have been happier with literally any other kind of corn chip. Paid $8 for a small layer of chips. Melted nacho cheese instead of real cheese. Wasn't super impressed.

Fascinated to learn that, until tomorrow, this is the sole location of Deet's BBQ. I understand their second store opens on Rte 20 on March 23, 2017.

Big ROI here.

I had the sampler - son had the 1/2 rack.

It's not eastern North Carolina - but hey - surprisingly good! Proof positive that sometimes, it's OK to venture off-script and indulge in the whimsies of "not whole-hog" barbecue.

All meat moist - including the chicken.


If BBQ is your thing, Deet's is a good option.

Gotten bbq to go twice now and to be honest, it's what I consider to be acceptable bbq. Having eaten all over the country I appreciate the things they do well (smoked wings, bbq chicken breast, decent ribs) but also notice things not so great (fatty brisket that's really unacceptable by most standards).

I'm also somewhat confused by the menu offerings and can't understand why the bbq chicken breast isn't available to be ordered unless you get the personal sampler.

Another annoyance is the nickel and diming such as charging for side substitutions when ordering the sampler

Deet's isn't much on atmosphere, and it's located in a strip mall, but as you probably know, in T-Town, the fact that a restaurant is located in a strip mall tells you next to nothing about how good the food is.

This is a great little family owned BBQ joint. When you walk in, the first thing you'll notice is that the place smells like a smokehouse. That's always a great way to start any BBQ dining experience. The next thing you notice is that the staff is ULTRA friendly and helpful; they really know their product. The service, for a BBQ place that grills each order
