I Ordered Spam Musubi, and the Hawaiian Chicken and Short Ribs Combo. Pricing was good, nothing overpriced in my opinion and they had lots of different options I was willing to try. I would order everything again in fact I've been craving it all week! The macaroni salad was great, better than other Hawaiian bbq's I've been to and the Hawaiian Chicken was very tender and probably my favorite part! Love it, thank you for the great food!

We got two large trays of meat for a backyard luau - the pulled pork and the Hawaiian chicken. The food was fantastic, especially the chicken! Everyone enjoyed the food and we loved the family owned and run vibe of the restaurant. We'll be back for sure.

I first discovered Pork Chop's BBQ at the Flemington location. But since Flemington was a lot further away from me, I was pleased when I found a location closer to where I was commuting at the time. The Ewing location is just a short drive from the Hamilton Train Station and a terrific spot to order takeout for the family on your way back home from work. The business specializes in Portuguese BBQ (which I had never had before), and it is AMAZING. I'm a big fan of BBQ and Hispanic food, so the dishes they serve here are right up my alley. There is a wide assortment of items to choose from, like beef ribs, pork ribs, Hawaiian food, salmon, paella, etc., that are both tasty and affordable. Check out the menu and see for yourself! And not only is the food excellent, but the service is outstanding. You will not be disappointed going here, I promise. You will only be disappointed if you don't!

This successful Portuguese/Philippine BBQ house has recently expanded to three locations (Flemington & Middlesex) in addition to their anchor kitchen in Ewing, NJ. It has adapted to its constituency by braiding its menu to cover more South/Central American tastes with things like empanadas, Brazilian steak and tres leches cake, as well as its nearly Polish neighbors with kielbasa sandwiches and platters. Their uniqueness comes from their cooking style - open pit hot coal rotisserie that is visible from the cashier's perch. Not only is it entertaining to watch chicken and pork/beef ribs doing that slow spinning tango, but the aroma from the juices dripping onto the hot ash creates a strong reaction in your mouth and stomach that sets the mood for a BBQ meat feast. Just sit down, relax and enjoy the wait. You may not want to leave. There is a downside to this style of meat prep, in that it does not involve a traditional American smoker, so the finish is not as tender. The meat does not simply pull off the bone, but requires some effort with knife & fork or incisors. It is still delicious, but may not be what was expected. We ordered half pork ribs/pork Hawaiian BBQ combo, with sides of black beans and corn bread, as well as 3 empanadas (chicken/beef) as apps. It took about 20 minutes for preparation and packaging for takeout. I chatted up the cashier Dory with questions about the business. She was friendly and happy to share what she knew. We had enough food for four people. Everything was tasty and distinct enough from American BBQ to appreciate the differences. Special mention to the pork Hawaiian which had a mild sweetness from its marinade that was pineapple inflected, and the ribs which had the anticipated smoky savory flavor. Black beans were decent, and the corn bread a soft rather than dense texture. Overall, a quality meal with plenty left over. It's easy to see why Pork Chops is successful. Next time they expand I hope they consider coming across the Delaware River into Bucks County. We have plenty of room for something this different and fun to eat.
