I came in yesterday for the first time, and as we all know BBQ is expensive, "didn't mind that" ordered a pulled pork sandwich Cole slaw, rib plate, with potato salad and baked beans. Pulled pork was so spicy just the meat, never have I ever seen Cole slaw look like sour kraut and smell like it?" Baked beans were baby food mush. Granddaughter ate her chicken and green beans, oh and the ribs were okay after you pulled the bark off, to tuff. My experience I won't go back just didn't understand some of the meat and sides I purchased. Will say the Lady at the register was great with customer service I even complimented on how squeaky clean the restroom was.

A beloved family member just brought me barbecue, red vinegar sauce, and all the fixings. She drove 100 miles round-trip and it was worth every mile. I am sucking the flavor out of the meat. I am from Eastern North Carolina and I never thought I’d taste barbecue that good again. I hate to say it, but I think this is better!

This was our first but not our last visit. It is one of the best BBQ restaurants I have been to. The sauces are good, but you don't have to use them. The pulled pork is already seasoned, and the smoked chicken was juicy and tender. The smoked sausages are great as well. The Mac and Cheese is just like grandma's. The collards and baked beans were also delicious.

After seeing the reviews on this place I decided to give it a try. Not to bad of a BBQ restaurant, it's definitely clean and everyone was warm and welcoming. I would come back again when in the area but I wouldn't necessarily put it on my list of road trip adventures of things I have to do. The prices to me were reasonable considering how high BBQ has gotten to be now days. 5/10/2024.

First time eating here, we had a really nice experience. The fire place is beautiful (and cozy), it's a clean place, the service was good, and the food was different but good. They had one girl walking around filling drinks and the mawmaw walking around talking to everyone, seeing if we needed anything, and engaging our kids. They also had a little play area in the corner with toys which was nice for our toddlers. Kids meals come with a drink and dessert included and let me just say the banana pudding was YUM! We've never had a vinegar based cole slaw but we really liked it, the Mac n cheese & collards were also good, but we weren't that fond of the baked beans (they seemed blended and we didn't love the flavor). The meat was tender and juicy and overall we really enjoyed our experience.

The ribs had no flavor. Bland. The Brunswick stew, also, no flavor. I got a rack of ribs and a quart of stew to take home.

I’m angry at myself because I should’ve went to this place a long time ago. Circle M BBQ - South Carolina in the outskirts of Liberty. Only open 2 nights a week—Friday and Saturday. When it’s open, it’s packed…and with good reason, their vinegar-based bbq is top-tier incredible!!! I ordered the Q & Brisket Plate. After tasting the pulled pork, I didn’t have the heart to put any sauce on it because there isn’t anything plain jane about it. Tangy, smoky, peppery, juicy pork. Doesn’t need any sauce. Burnt ends? Barbecue gold. I also thoroughly enjoyed the sides as well. It’s also worth noting that the cornbread is on the savory side, in case you’re curious. Circle M BBQ is definitely worth traveling for, especially if you really love bbq.

First time at Circle M. It’s in a location that is not really near anything else. It’s super clean and the service is very good. Everyone was super attentive and seemed genuinely curious if everything was ok. The menu is pretty straightforward. They cook while hogs and instead of calling it pulled pork, they call it BBQ. I had “BBQ” and Brisket, green beans, and slaw. The BBQ was exceptional Carolina style and they give you a ton of it. The brisket was pretty good but not great. The slaw was vinegar based and I’ve never had one that tasted like this. I have to say, it’s very good. The green beans seemed to be standard from the can but did have some different spices in them. I will be back to try some other meats with the “BBQ” to see how they stack up.

The food was really good. We got the sampler to share between two people and had enough to bring home leftovers. All of the sides we picked (greens, sweet potato souffle, mac and cheese) were flavorful and the meats tender and well seasoned. The staff were very sweet, the atmosphere cozy but a little cramped and loud (because they were busy). My only real complaint was the wait. We sat down immediately and drink orders were taken quickly, but it was roughly a twenty minute (give or take) wait for our meal order to be taken, and again to receive our food, then again to pay. So, almost an hour of just waiting. All in all, despite the wait, I'm sure we'll be back ☺️

I highly recommend! A friend recommended we try it out. We really enjoyed the brisket. I also really liked the sweet potato casserole. It was more like a dessert. The owner was very nice. I found out they smoke the whole pig which allows you to get different parts of the pig so it's a better overall taste than the butt/shoulder roast alone. Most places don't do the whole pig. I only ate the brisket so I can't comment on the pork. Her sweet mom brought us an extra homemade dessert because we had a hard time picking which one we wanted. We all loved the banana pudding. Possibly the best I've had. My 9-year-old has been asking when we can go back. The owners purchased the restaurant within the last couple of years from a family friend. All the same recipes but they've added the brisket, a few more sides, and the homemade desserts. You'll have to look at the menu for prices. I can't remember how much we spent. I think the owner said that kids get a free dessert. I actually think we each got a dessert and she didn't charge us. We were so full but she wanted us to get to try them.

I just returned from eating Circle M whole hog BBQ. I have to say it was fantastic. A few months ago I ate at another whole hog award winning restaurant in Charleston and it was underwhelming at best. Go down to Liberty and give it a try. I had the pulled pork and brisket. The collards and Cole slaw are spot on as well. Good stuff. Food network should have come here instead.

This place has the best, bar none, ribs. The chicken is to die for and the pulled pork has my mouth watering just thinking about it. Their servings are good sized for the price, so don't let the price tag scare you - it's more expensive than other places but you will leave with extras. The staff is super friendly (they know you by name pretty quickly) and they get you exactly what you want.

Not used to chunks of brisket but it was good 1/2 chicken was a little dry in the breast but the dark meat was awesome. Ribs were perfect. Glad I got the extra 1/2 lb of pulled pork.

NEW MANAGEMENT UPDATE: I love Circle M. Y’all... I LOVE Circle M. I knew I had to leave another review once I heard Marion retired. Rest assured, the quality is the same. Slow-smoked whole-hog barbecue, seasoned with that same delicious vinegar sauce. The marinated slaw is still tangy and delicious as ever, and the beans are fantastic as always. It pains me to suggest that they could improve on anything Marion was doing, but the new side dishes and *gasp* DESSERTS are a very welcome addition to the menu. I had their mac and cheese, which was perfect, and tried their cake and banana pudding for dessert, neither of which disappointed. I hear they’re going to add brisket soon, so it was fitting that they added a tasty sweet mild and sweet hot sauce for those that simply must have it. The interior has been upgraded. Music livens up what once had been a slightly awkward silent dining room. The fireplace was crackling, and the staff was wonderfully friendly. To the new management, well done! Take all my money! ORIGINAL REVIEW: You would have to drive at least 100 miles to get something similar to the whole-hog vinegar-based barbecue they sell here. My wife and I stopped on a whim last year and every Friday from then on my mouth started watering. Some say it's pricey. I say save your eating out money for this place once a week. You have to appreciate the product and the craft that you receive here. Whole-hog is the granddaddy, the oldest kind of barbecue in America. It ain't easy, and might not be your style if you prefer mixing your tomato, vinegar, and mustard sauces together at the International House of Barbecue (lookin' at you, Smokin' Pig). Go get the food, speak with the owner Mr. Martin, and ask him to show you his smoking setup out back. Friendly as can be, and gutsy as hell to open up a real whole-hog joint in the upstate. Bravo, Marion. Bravo.

As a lifelong resident of Anderson County, I grew up on several different styles of barbecue in the local area and experienced barbecue from different regions of the country such as Memphis Tennessee, Central Mississippi, and the Mississippi / Louisiana Gulf Coast areas as I got older. I’ve also been privileged to have taken part in barbecues from around the world while in the Navy. I credit Mr. Marion Martin for turning me onto true whole hog, pulled pork, vinegar based barbecue after attending an event he catered when I was a young boy and in my opinion, his way of cooking hogs has never been surpassed nor will it ever. I respect everyone’s opinion on whether his style tickles your fancy or not but having cooked hogs myself for years in the same manner, something that should be understood is that a tremendous amount of work goes into cooking whole hogs the way Mr. Martin does and it’s EXPENSIVE! Pulling meat off of a hog once it’s done is a monotonous, time consuming task which increases the amount of labor needed to reach the end result of getting food on your table henceforth the price of eating in such an establishment may be a little steeper than what most folks may be accustomed to but after factoring in everything that’s involved in such things as spices or all of the other ingredients that go into providing the quality of food that Circle M produces, the overall costs of a meal is fairly reasonable. Marion Martin, simply put, is keeping a time honored Southern tradition alive in his style of barbecue which dates back generations and is nearly extinct. As in everything else, you’re going to get what you pay for so the price of such a fine meal is definitely going to be a little higher. Very few people today have even seen barbecue cooked the way he cooks much less know HOW or are WILLING to put in the effort to cook hogs the way he does because it’s such a labor intensive task with really long hours involved that can only be accomplished by someone a tremendous amount of love and dedication for what they are doing in such a task. Yes, on the surface, it may be a little pricey but after looking at the big picture and considering what all goes into his business; the skills he possesses in doing what he’s been doing for what I suspect has been for well over 40 years is a work of art and he’s the master. I have never had the honor and privilege of knowing Marion on a personal level but I have been fortunate to have been able to enjoy the impeccable barbecue he produces at Circle M today for nearly all of my life and in my eyes, Marion Martin is indeed the Picasso of Pork. I admire, respect, and idolize the man and what he’s able to do in the world of TRUE barbecue. I know for a fact that he doesn’t cut the corners like so many other so called barbecue restaurants do and those of us who truly love barbecue are blessed to have the last of the real Pit Masters in our area. When you see him, shake his hand and simply tell him THANK YOU for the work he continues to put into keeping a barbecue style, tradition, and flavor unique to South Carolina that those of us who were born, raised, and value the heritage of this beautiful state can really appreciate.

We recently moved from North Carolina where we enjoyed the BBQ at Lexington BBQ. We tried several of the recommended BBQ places in Seneca and Anderson and were disappointed in the BBQ. Our new dental hygienist, who had grown up in Seneca, recommended Circle M and we tried the chopped pork and ribs last night. The ribs were the best for flavor and the amount of meat on the ribs that I have experienced. The chopped pork was excellent and just as good, if not better, than Lexington BBQ. We have made this our go to place for BBQ. Looking forward to trying the chicken and Brunswick stew on our next visit. Thank you Circle M for providing delicious BBQ.

Circle M is without a doubt the best barbecue that exists anywhere. Any other barbecue I've ever had ranks a maximum of 6 compared to the 10 of Circle M. I used to live near there 20 years ago and would go there all the time. I now live 2 hours away and sometimes make the trip just to go there. The pulled pork and the ribs are so good you wouldn't even consider putting a sauce on it. The slaw also the best slaw I've ever had. (I actually don't even like slaw, but I love theirs.)
