Firebox Deli - Saint Paul

I always order takeout so no dining experience to report. Looks comfortable.The food is good, and very consistent. Traditional barbecue and sides. Portions are always satisfying. Excellent brisket. Staff is prompt and courteous. I would recommend.

Surprising gem in St. Paul! Seeking barbecue head east on Marshall using all your senses, especially your nose and find yourself at the Tinderbox. Tender meat, classic sides greet you at this family operated smoke house. You won’t be disappointed…

The food is excellent, I question If the meat is smoked, I just came back from St. Louis, I know when I taste smoked meat, but maybe they just don't smoke theirs as long. but my only complaint is where you are getting a meal for 4 to 6 People, they give you small sides, which is not enough to feed 4 to 6 people. They should be giving the large sides with the larger amount of meat. Which really does not make sense to me. Because you have to end up spending more money outside of the package of food to get enough for everyone.

I have tried almost everything and believe me they wouldn't disappoint. Famous Dave's cost the same.But, here is the but Firebox gives you more of a hometown taste. More food for your money. Plus, you are supporting small businesses. Whatever you choose you won't be disappointed.

The meat was unseasoned and undone but cold. I requested a new meal. My wife has been vomiting since. Sweet potatoes came fresh out the can. Everything already prepped and ready to serve. Disgusting!! 4 thumbs
