C&W BBQ

Some good eating served/​cooked by good folks. I stopped here on last Friday, after a co-​worker recommended C&W BBQ. I ordered the combo which included chicken, ribs, and pulled pork with macaroni & cheese and collard greens. I enjoyed all of my delicious food and will be back again. I also ordered a slice (¼ of pie) of sweet potato pie and it was amazing. So glad my co-​worker told me about this gem. FYI, cash only…

Definitely a more North Carolina type of bbq. Good for the kind it is. I thought a little pricey for what it is but it is unique to this area.

I place like C&W BBQ is exactly the kind of place I hope to discover and enjoy when visiting different towns and areas of the country. C&W did not disappoint with a great local presence and friendly owners
The place is small brick building that hits you with delicious smells as soon as you enter. Everything is homemade (including the sauce) and delicious.
The prices are very reasonable and helpings will not leave you hungry. I’m usually not a rib fan, but these ribs were super meaty and the meat fell off the bone. Everything as great.
Additionally the owners are so happy to have customers come in and welcome you with smiles and want to know what you think about the food.
Cannot say enough, if you are in the Orlando area, make the trip out here to take in this experience.

This place is a must try!!! I’ve been going to this gem for about 8 years and it is unbelievable.

Very unique place. Loved the fact that it is family owned and run. Got the sampler platter — Chicken was a little dry (most chicken is) but at least it was done. The rest was delicious and more than enough for the two of us. Will definitely go back.

We went to breakfast with some friends at The Town House Restaurant BUT we had to bring them by to meet Miss Cora…
As usual her place smells wonderful when you walk in the door. Her menu is very simple but the food is made with SO MUCH LOVE you can’t help but leave with something. Well leave with something we did. Our friends left with two orders and so did we.
Mama ordered the ribs and chicken with some greens and potato salad. I ordered the ribs and pulled pork with a double order of greens.
I am going to TRY to save that for my dinner but the smell is overwhelming the house right now as it cools off to put in the fridge for later. The only reason I am not eating it now is because I am still stuffed from breakfast. I did however take a small nibble of everything just to make sure it was as good as the last time and IT WAS…
When you stop by, just remember that they only accept CASH

It is always nice to see Cora and her food is delicious. Close to my work. Lots of history in that house.

Oh my GOSH! This place was my childhood! The best BBQ you are going to get is right here. I always recommend getting the chicken dinner with mac and cheese and beans. The woman who works there knows how to cook them to perfection. I recently came back to Oviedo for my best friend’s wedding, and before leaving for his bachelor party, I had all the groomsmen come, to be able to enjoy the rest of the night. All of them came away raving about this spot. I hope that it will always be there when I come back to Oviedo. I don’t eat pork so I have never had the pulled pork, but others have loved it.
Thank you for being amazing.

Absolutely delicious. Ribs were delicious and big. I will definitely be going back. Make sure you bring cash.

When you arrive at C&W don’t judge this place by its looks. First I check inspections on any restaurant as I did with this one. Very few violations, sometimes none! This is a takeout place with true southern cooking. I’ve tried almost everything and it is damn good. The best collards I’ve ever had, chicken and ribs are good. Nice smoke flavor but not overpowering. Large plates (enough for two) at very fair prices.

First, the owner is amazing! She is so warm and wonderful that you want to love it. Second, it was reasonable. The outside seating was fine but there were a ton of flies everywhere but hey, it is outside in Florida-​so not rating the ambiance. Now to the food, the menu is minimal. When we went, the potato salad had not been made yet, so we had mac&cheese and beans as sides. Mac&cheese, good but need a little seasoning. The beans tasted like they came from a can with a ton of brown sugar added. We could not eat the beans. We were sad that we could not try the potato salad. Now to the meat – my husband had pulled pork sandwich. Bread was just sliced bread with the meat on it. My husband said it was ok. I had the ribs. I enjoyed the sauce that was on them but they were not the best ribs I have had. The portions were very large. You won’t leave hungry. It is not my favorite BBQ place – so far the BBQ truck on OBT in Mt. Dora is better and of course, 4 rivers is pretty spot on, too. This is all about the experience. Remember, this is authentic southern Florida and I think helping a small business is always good.

My favorite little hole in the wall BBQ spot. It’s nice to have an authentic spot in an area that is mostly comprised of chain barbecue restaurants. The food is always amazing and clearly made with a lot of love and soul. The food is inexpensive and the portions are huge! Try the pulled pork platter – extra bbq sauce of course.

Great food and priced right. Would go back I’m a big fan. Tried the ribs, smoked sausage, and jerk chicken all 3 had great flavor. Dont pass here without trying out the best BBQ

C&W is a good southern restaurant. You have to get past the little house that it’s run out of because it’s very local and offers good food! The portion size is monstrous for the dinner and it comes with 2 sides: I chose Mac and cheese and collard greens. My husband got potato salad and baked beans. The potato salad was awesome! It has relish in it which gave it a sweet taste which was nice. The Mac and cheese was a little bland and the collard greens needy a little more spice to them. We did get a slice of sweet potato pic which was delicious! All in all I enjoyed it and the owner Miss Cora is adorable. Just remember it is cash only.

Delicious food at unbeatable prices. For the chicken dinner, you get two whole legs (that’s two thighs and two drumsticks) with two sides for $ 6.50. I love her bbq sauce; tangy, tomato and vinegar based, not too sweet. Plus she is a sweetheart. Just remember to bring cash.

This is how BBQ should be. Great food, friendly service.
The menu is limited but makes it easy to choose.

So today I sat outside by the Collard patch while I was enjoying the bounty from that very spot. Nestled under some giant trees a few picnic tables and some plastic drag up chairs. This is a casual as it gets. If your squeamish about all those pesky health rules and regulations this may not be your spot. BBQ ribs, a huge serving of collards and some potato salad. Plus a slice of apple pie. Is it KC Prime? No way. What it is ;a little slice of the past all too forgotten in todays obsession with everything chain restaurant craze. Slow down one lazy afternoon, gather the kids, sit under the trees, eat as much as you can with your fingers and wipe your mouth with the back of your hand. There are times when «unfine» dining is good for the soul.

Stop in and try Cora’s BBQ!!! Excellent! We had the pulled pork dinner with collard greens and baked beans! Her beans are sweet and delicious! This meat taste better than the pulled pork at 4 Rivers. This is true smoked bbq. The building is a very small white concrete block building with a couple of picnic tables outside. Don’t be afraid! Go in! It’s true to not read this book by its cover. The menu is small… ribs, pork, mac n’ cheese, collards, potato salad, collards and bread. The sodas are in a can and are a generic brand, so if you need a cup of ice, you may need to bring your own… not sure on that one because I just drank the orange soda out of the can. The price for a dinner is $ 8.50, well worth the portion and flavor! I will definitely be back! I hear from the local store near by that her ribs are the best! There was plenty of smoke flavor on the meat, so I’m not sure if it was lighter when Brad Y. was there. Either way, we both enjoyed the food!

Pleasantly surprised. A little light on the smoke, but you could still taste it. Good amount of fat on the ribs. Tasty sauce. Beans taste like apple pie. Wanted tater salad, but they were out.
