Matthew's Bbq - Crestview

Best bbq in town. Spicy jerk chicken, delicious pulled pork and ribs that fall right off the bone. The cook said he uses pecan wood only. This is our go to bbq place. They are open Thursday, Friday, Saturday from 11am to 8pm. Come early cause they do sell out of stuff. The portions are huge. They even offer samples if it's your first time.

1st visit to Matthew's and I was excited to try it. I got there ~45 minutes before they closed and got a pulled pork sandwich and 3 ribs. I'm trying the ribs later, but the pulled pork was very good. The sauce is good to. Back to the pulled pork. Flavor to me was excellent. Nice smoke flavor but I can still taste the meat, which has a light and smooth pork flavor with no game to it. There was some fat in it, but I just removed it, no biggie. I wished I had gotten a pound of the pulled pork. I suspect the ribs will be excellent as well. Tomorrow, I'm going back for the jerk chicken and the smoked sausage. So excited. Also, the gentleman helping me was very polite. I'm giving the entire experience 5 stars, because there has been zero negatives with this experience. , will be a regular at Matthew's BBQ from now on. Glad I tried this place.

While visiting Navarre in FL, I searched non-commercial food places for us to try out. I was called to Matthew's. Even though this was an hour drive away for a food truck, the previous reviews made me believe this was going to be worth it, and I'm glad we made the trip. We arrived at a perfect time, when we had an opportunity to hear the family's story and many blessings over the years. As first-timers and upon arrival, we were offered prideful, free samples of the meats available on the menu today spare ribs, pulled pork, jerk chicken, smoked sausage and generous smidge of Mom's BBQ sauce... which they are looking to patent and should). While each sample tasted more amazing than the last, we landed on the jerk chicken and pulled pork not pictured, since wrapped in aluminum foil under the chicken) for our 2-meat combos which included two sides each $16/combo). The food was plentiful and legit the best BBQ meat we also have ever had, just as the others have said. The flavor was out of this world, and if we lived here, we would try to visit as often as we could. We chose sides of the cole slaw, baked beans, potato salad and fried okra. Out of those 4 selections, the beans and okra matched the high level of the meat. The others were good, but paled in comparison which probably isn't fair). When people say this is the best BBQ they've had in their life, they're NOT lying. When they say the Owner is exceptional, that's an understatement. Please consider gifting yourself the pleasure of visiting Matthew's. You won't regret it.

The food was excellent! The pork was incredibly tender, and everything we tasted was fantastic. The service was also outstanding—everyone was very friendly. This has definitely become one of my new favorite BBQ spots!

Absolutely amazing! The jerk chicken and pulled pork were exceptional. I can't believe it was my first visit; it certainly won’t be my last.
