BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – Fans of smoked meats and classic barbecue flavors have a new reason to stop by Crydermans Barbecue this week, as the popular restaurant rolls out a lineup of limited-time specials.
Leading the weekly offerings is a Chopped Brisket Sandwich for $10, featuring Crydermans’ signature slow-smoked brisket piled high and served with the bold flavors that have made the restaurant a favorite among barbecue lovers across the Space Coast.
In addition to the brisket special, guests can also enjoy two deli-style favorites available Friday through Sunday and again on Tuesday.
The specials include pastrami and a smoked pastrami Reuben, both crafted with Crydermans’ house-smoked meats and classic sandwich toppings.
With St. Patrick’s Day approaching, Crydermans is also featuring special St. Patrick’s Day desserts, adding a festive touch to the week’s menu. The seasonal sweets are designed to complement the restaurant’s rich barbecue offerings and give customers something unique to try while celebrating the holiday.
Crydermans Barbecue has built a strong following for its authentic Texas-style barbecue, smoked low and slow, along with creative weekly specials that keep customers coming back to see what’s new.
The specials are available for a limited time and are scheduled to run through March 17. Customers can view the full menu and additional offerings online HERE
For barbecue fans looking for bold flavors and hearty sandwiches, this week’s lineup offers plenty of reasons to stop by Crydermans and enjoy a taste of one of Brevard County’s most popular smokehouses.
Owners Amy and Chad Cryderman didn’t just open a restaurant — they embarked on a mission. Before launching their Southern‑style barbecue house, they traveled extensively through the Carolinas, Georgia, and Texas, tasting their way through the very best barbecue America has to offer.
Their extensive research ensured that when they brought their dream to life in Cocoa, the result would be something truly special.
That dedication shines through in every bite. At Crydermans, the focus is on simplicity done right — high‑quality meats treated with respect, seasoned with salt and pepper, slow‑smoked over live oak wood, and cooked low and slow until that perfect balance of smoke, tenderness, and flavor is achieved.
What Makes Crydermans Stand Out?
– Central Texas‑Inspired Smoking: The menu celebrates bold, authentic flavors with minimal sauce so the meat truly shines.
– All‑Natural Ingredients: Every cut is all‑natural, with no growth hormones or antibiotics, delivering BBQ that tastes like it was made in your own backyard.
– Homemade Sides & Scratch Recipes: From creamy mac and cheese to tender slow‑smoked brisket and pulled pork, even the sides and sauces are crafted from scratch.
– Community Atmosphere: A casual, welcoming spot where friends, families, and neighbors gather over great food and good conversation.
Crydermans’ commitment to quality and community has earned it a top‑10 ranking among more than 100 eateries in the Space Coast area on Tripadvisor — a phenomenal achievement for a local favorite.
Whether you come for lunch, dinner, catering a big event, or grabbing a platter to go, Crydermans Barbecue makes sure every guest leaves satisfied. With barbecue by the pound (so you can choose exactly how much meat you want), classic sandwiches, and even signature Hawaiian sweet tea and Cheerwine on the menu, there’s something here for everyone.
From its original Cocoa Village location to expanding its reach throughout the region, Crydermans Barbecue continues to be a must‑visit destination for barbecue lovers across Florida.
