February 2018 menu

Bad Boys BBQ is a tiny hole-in-the-wall restaurant located right beside the 7-11 on Rockwell and Britton. I wouldn't let the location or interior throw you off because this place has tasty BBQ at a fair price and is worth checking out. While I wouldn't recommend stopping by with a large group (there are a total of 6 seats inside with separate tables) I would recommend making a sandwich combo to-go order to see if it's to your liking. Service is quick and friendly, the meats were smoked nicely (though, my sliced Brisket was a little bit tough near the end), and the sides that I tried (baked beans and fried okra) were both very good. I remember seeing a sign outside that said Tuesdays and Wednesdays are $5 sandwich combo days. $5 for one of their sandwich combos is an absolute steal and should be reason enough to drop by if you're in the area. Bad Boys has two types of BBQ sauce: Original and Hot. The Original has more of a cider vinegar-y taste to it and the Hot has a sweeter and spicier kick to it. I would most definitely suggest you get the Hot instead of the Original if you're not too keen on vinegar-y type sauces. Also, it's spicy but not so spicy that you won't enjoy the rest of your food. Overall, good food and nice people. Check them out if you're in the area.

So..what do u do with ur leftover burnt ends? How about pizza with pickles, jalapeno crisps and jalapeno mustard..yummmmm. Love this place. Made brisket tacos last night.

Excellent BBQ!! Even the cakes are delicious..its hidden behind the 7-11 so we had passed it the first time and had to turn around. The place smelled wonderful and the owner greeted us with a big smile as soon as we entered. We all ordered something different from the menu so we could sample. On the day we came his credit card machine wasn't working so my husband ran over to the 7-11 to use the ATM as my son and I waited at one of the only two tables inside. It looked as though most of the patrons ordered to go. The bbq sauce is not on the meat, you can tell them if you want mild or hot and add it yourself. My sons sandwich was missing the bottom bread and it seemed to be very messy but really good. Filled me up but my husband thought the portions could have been bigger for the price.

Food was excellent but permanently closed long ago. Building is now empty. Think this makes it the required 85 spaces.

Take out only because of Covid. Ribs and pulled pork were great. I will come back for more, one of the best in the area.

I just returned here after years since Parlor is outside of burger-driving-range from my house…read more The menu had changed a lot with plenty of new additions, which is awesome, but I was worried that the core burgers may have changed too. While some of the wording was different, I was able to order the exact same burger I fell in love with years ago and the flavor instantly sent me back to the first time I tried it. I ordered the MOB XL Burger Basket with Jalapenos, avocado, and loaded fries. The jalapenos here aren't just regular jalapenos. They are flavor country (also very hot). If you like spicy food, these are the best burger jalapenos in the city imo. My gf ordered the regular single with jalapenos and was annihilated by the spice. She's kind of a wimp when it comes to spice but she trucked through it because the flavors are so good. Long story short, this is still my fav burger in OKC (by a long shot). The fact that this place isn't always highly-rated in a state where people worship Whataburger and Braum's borders on absurdity. MOB is similar to Tucker's but better in every way. It absolutely annihilates S&B and the Garage in flavor. The only possible downside is if you want a tame burger, then sure this isn't the place for you. But if you are big into flavor, this place will take care of you better than your mama. Now that they have delivery options to my house, I will definitely experiment with the other menu items. Thanks Marco!

The layout is well thought out, with a convenient entrance for to-go orders and seating available while you wait. As you walk in, you're greeted by a long entryway lined with their awards, and it's clear they take pride in what they've accomplished. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the experience stood out even more when the manager personally stepped in to seat us instead of making us wait. That level of involvement says a lot about how they run things. The food was amazing! The burger I really liked, it was cooked just as I asked and had a good smoke flavor even if it wasn't cooked on a wood fire grill but a flat top. The brisket was great, the fries and I have to say I didn't hate anything. I absolutely loved everything. Even the strawberry lemonade was delicious. I liked the sweet competition sauce but their original kc sauce was just right with its peppery sweet taste. The restaurant is clean, well-lit, and gives you a clear view of the food you're about to enjoy. Overall, it's a welcoming spot with great energy and attention to detail. Definitely recommend.

I actually heard about it while doing what I do best: eavesdropping. As in, eavesdropping on another traveler in the same rental car line as I was, asking the attendant who had the best BBQ in town. I instantly saved Clark Crew on Yelp and found time to head over the next day! Their menu was so extensive, I had to enjoy half of my frosty pint of beer while I decided on a combo plate. Folks, this thing was immense - a heaping pile of meat, sides, and their legendary pickles. (Don't forget to ask for the pickles!) To be honest, it was too much. I could barely get through half of it before sheepishly requesting a to go box so I could wolf down the rest later at my hotel. And yes, the BBQ was delicious. A great combo of smoky, smooth, and rich. If I hadn't been carry-on only, I would have grabbed a couple of bottles of their sauce to take home. The service here was over-the-top amazing, too. I wish I remembered my server's name, but I remember that she was awesome. And also excited to hear that I'd never been to OKC before!

Friendly service, and food was hot. No wait, order and sit or go. As far as bbq standard, there are many across the country. Pitmasters display their skill. This place blow sims bbq out of the water. They use actually smokers and know what they are doing. I would be willing to put them just under Lewis BBQ in SC and Hutchins in Texas. 8.5 out of 10. Bark was consistent, I would have liked to taste the flavor deeper into the meat, but with brisket it is a hit or miss. Great burnt pork ends, and their sides are well made.

During a morning meeting today, my coworker stated that there is no good bbq in OKC. . . I had to prove him wrong. Arriving 30 min after opening, the line was packed. Hunger and anticipation was building. Went full out and got the Texas Trinity Platter. Pound of brisket, pound of ribs, 2 sausages, 2 sides, 2 hungry stomaches. A beautiful red sheen of a slight glaze on the ribs with flecks of black pepper that I could look at all day honestly. A sweet glaze that I was definitely the best rib I've had this trip. Not overpowering and chew of smoke with each bite. Such a wonderful brisket too. Spots like these always make me double take if I'm not in Texas. A wonderful pitch black bark absorbs all the smoke. A little bit on the saltier side on the initial bite, but balanced once the beef fat started flowing from between the meats. When I dived up the leftovers, I took ALL the slices from the flat. Such a meaty and beefy flat that was still juicy. So much so that I wasnt sure if it was the brisket or my drool. Between bites, I couldn't get enough of those pickles. Wonderfully vinegary and refreshing. I forgot to try the pickled onions because the cucumbers were sooooo good. I loved the flavors of the cheddar jalapeño sausage and the hot gut. The was a little bit more of a bite on the casing but tasted amazing. I'm literally sitting in my hotel right now eating it while typing this.

I've lived here for 13 years and realized I never tried "Oklahoma BBQ." After some Google searching…read moreand looking at about 10 options, I chose King's BBQ due to their mom & pop vibes and great reviews. We tried most of the meats as I got the 5 meat, my dad got the 3 meat, and my gf got the ham. We were all very impressed and are likely to return. My only minor complaint is that burnt ends were sold out by the middle of dinner. We didn't come that late or anything. The 3 and 5 meat plates are kind of hard to fill out without duplicates and without burnt ends. So it would be nice to either have more burnt ends or allow duplicates on the large meat plates. But I get why that may not happen. I had to fill my 5 meat plate with various sausage which were good but hard to eat a lot of due to how rich they are. Of course, the 5 meat plate was ridiculous to begin with so that's on me, lol. I thought the portions would be smaller, but I appreciate the generous sizing. All in all, we had a good experience.
