This place looks promising with a nice big smoker outside but the food was kinda disappointing The pulled pork was tasteless and a bit dry The buns were small and the cheapest kind you can get in any convenient store. Chicken was eatable but also a bit dry Beans and potato salad were not home made but just open a can and serve.

Very dry meats. I seen the nice smoker but everything must be boiled before, because the ribs nor the pulled pork had any smoke ring or smoke flavor. People were very friendly but the food was a big miss.

Probably the worst ribs I’ve had. Made U-Turn after seeing smoker out with beautiful plumes emanating. Went on with family member, who like me lives ribs. When product arrived I questioned if the ½slab I received was boiled, my hostess assured me the ribs were smoked bug honestly upon consumption they were in my opinion clearly boiled. In fairness, she offered me chicken, which I declined. As a tourist, I felt it not in my gastrointestinal best interest to exchange my meal bring also that the ribs lacked any seasoning or flavor. It was as if the meat was removed from the packaging and boiled. Not a rib joint I recommend or card to ever revisit.

Driving through Newport to get off I-40 on the way to Asheville. Saw the smoker and did a u-turn! I was going to go with my standard pork sandwich litmus test until I saw«smoked burgers» on the sign on the wall. Genius. And, as it turns out, tasty. The thick pickles and fresh tomato with the subtle smoke made for a fine fine burger.

It was ok. The truck was parked at Rafting in the Smokies. My group was all starving and decided to give Gigglin Pig a try. The line was very long and the person running the truck was very unorganized and couldn’t remember what people ordered. They were out of some items and the beans were cold. The positives: really yummy meat and BBQ sauce. Gigglin Pig has some work to do, however, I would give them an other shot based on the tastiness of their BBQ.

You’ve all heard this story before. A well-researched trip with exciting restaurants on the horizon, followed by an unexpected closure resulting a required session of flying by the seat of one’s pants. Such an occurrence landed me at The Gigglin Pig, far from the most glamorous of destinations, probably even within East Newport. The menu sounded enticing enough; unfortunately, much of it seemed unavailable as my top two choices yielded responses of «We’re out». I had to fall back to pulled pork, while my friend ordered a burger. There are a lot of opportunities for success with pulled pork, both with the meat itself and the sauce offerings. Gigglin’ Pig fell flat on both fronts. I found the meat dry and unflavorful, while the sauces tasted like KC Masterpiece with varying levels of pepper added. If this is the best BBQ in East Tennessee, remind me to stick to Memphis. While the BBQ was thoroughly forgettable, the burger will stick out in my mind for a while, but not in a good way. My friend quickly complained that their burger didn’t taste like a burger. I was pretty skeptical, but by both visual(it was sort of a dull brown) and taste inspection this complaint appeared to be valid. I think it was ground pork(though I’m not still exactly sure), which in principle could have been an acceptable and even an interesting substitute, but it had a bizarre consistency and sort of decomposed when you tried to chew it. I won’t say it was gross, but it was not quite right, either. Maybe this is why they call it the Gigglin’ Pig, because you can practically hear someone laughing at you saying«Ha! You ordered a burger at a BBQ place… that’s what you get!» The meal was capped off with textureless banana pudding, my favorite.
