they got good food at a good price. I especially love the biscuits and brisket. i'll definitely be eating here as my go to bbq spot.

If you're looking for BBQ, this isn't the place. They don't serve sliced brisket. They shred it and cover it in sauce. The pulled pork is covered in sauce so you have no smoke flavor at all. They have a sweet and vinegar pulled pork. You just can't taste the pork. The tri-tip is okay, slight smoke flavor. If you're looking for real BBQ, this isn't it. read more

Blister's BBQ - This is the brisket. It was inedible. - Barbeque Near Me - Rexburg, Idaho

Food is always so yummy!! It's definitely hard sometimes to find seating just because there isn't a ton of room I wish they would get a bigger location but overall 10/10 read more

In town visiting and saw this place on Yelp so i thought we would give it a try even though it was located inside of a gas station. We ordered 2 meals.. a cowgirl which comes with 2 meats and a buckaroo which is a 1 meat plate each with one side. I got the fries (greasy and skinny) and the Mac and cheese which was alright but I don't think I'd get those sides again. Overall the meat flavoring was good! I'd give it a go it your looking for bbq! I'm going to try again before I leave! read more

Blister's BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Rexburg, Idaho

Not a huge fan of meat but I'll eat blisters brisket any day. Love their waffle fries and fry sauce. Just wish they had more sides to choose from read more

This is the only BBQ place worth going to. The sauce is excellent and the meat is never greasy. The beans and the coleslaw are delicious.

The food is amazing, they really need to get out of the gas station bc they're better than that. the staff is fun and helpful with questions and concerns. some of the plates are pretty pricy for how much food you get but the loaded fries are a slap and cheap as crap. highly recommend trying out. read more

Fries are top notch. Have ordered most of the menu and have yet to be disappointed. Personal favorites are the cheesesteak and the ribs.

What a surprise! Best Cuban sandwich... juicy, nice smoke on the meat, perfect bread, and the pickles!

This is NOT the best BBQ in Idaho. The brisket didn't have any flavor, the fries were greasy and soggy, the coleslaw tasted weird and the "fry sauce" was like water. The only thing I liked were the fried green beans. I didn't even mind that it's in a gas station. It was just below average food. Period. Never to return there again. read more

A unique one of a kind experience you won't soon forget. Try the unique daily special. read more

This place is eh. Not bad, not the best. I wouldn't recommend it to my friends but I could see myself eating there again way down the road but trying a different food. My wife got the cowgirl (tri tip, brisket and fries) while I got the brisket sandwich and a side of Mac and cheese. The brisket and brisket sandwich taste got old quick. The tri tip was alright. The fries were not good. They were cold and over done. It was sad. The Mac and cheese was decent. It had a little spicy kick but nothing overwhelming. In the end, this review isn't anything special and neither is their food. read more

I got the cowgirl, and the tri tip and brisket were delicious. Substituted the fries with fried pickles and it was great. And the scones hit the spot. read more

Only tried one time and it was really good! Excited to hear they are opening a second location at the golf course!

Where do i begin..... everything they sell is incredible. 99% of the time I get the cowgirl with brisket and gritos and I've never been let down. read more

If you like a brisket sandwich that's chopped and in barbecue sauce, this is the place for you. This isn't a Texas brisket place with the burnt ends and more smoke flavor which is what i crave. However, there is so much tender and lean meat on your sandwich, it is hard to eat it all. The fresh cut fries were really good and my boyfriend loved the barbecue fry sauce. The barbecue sauce is very good also; not too sweet and not too vinegary. There was a line when we went, but the people working there were very fast at taking everyone's orders. so it went fast. Just know that when they're out of barbecue for the day they are out, because it is made fresh daily. read more

Blister's BBQ - Yes the restaurant is in the gas station. - Barbeque Near Me - Rexburg, Idaho

Literally the worst barbque I've ever had, I don't understand these reviews. I wish I hadn't stopped here. Brisket and pulled pork: so tough, dry and stringy that they required more chewing than an overdone steak. How does one even do this to these meats??? Ham: was just three lunchmeat-slices of pressed ham product. Not even actual ham. Coleslaw: SO salty. Like the cap to the salt shaker fell off when it was being made. KEEP DRIVING. read more

Had the dude replacing our windshield not told me there was a bbq place inside the teeny gas station next door, I would have never known. We tried the loaded fries with barbecue pork and split a brisket sandwich on the recommendation of the gentleman behind the counter. Be warned, a full loaded fry is pretty huge. I'm glad I was splitting it. The fries appear to have been potatoes recently and that's always a good sign. My husband was not impressed with their barbecue sauce , but I liked it. I also the the brisket sandwich was a delight. read more

Best BBQ in ID. Hands down. Can be difficult to get a table to sit down if you go during a mealtime rush. But always worth waiting a couple minutes. Favorite sandwich is the Cubano, and you can't go wrong with any meat choice for a plate. Scones are bomb. Overall, quality and consistency describe Blisters perfectly. read more

Located in a gas station. Drove past location and had to call them to verify address. Told me inside Mobil station. Excellent customer service, large portions. Pulled pork, brisket, and cheese steak really really good. Tender melt in your mouth meat. Highly recommend. Best little BBQ place. read more

Blister's BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Rexburg, Idaho

Great great BBQ!! Don't need sauce. The flavors are great. Meat not fatty ! Nummy . Give it a try - you WONT be disappointed!!

Finally, a first class southern BBQ joint in Rexburg! How good is it? Well, I've petitioned Yelp to let me give it 6 stars. I had the pulled-pork sandwich meal for only $5.50. It included a huge sandwich on a po' boy roll, loaded with mass quantities of delicious, juicy, Carolina style, pulled pork. It was covered with a delicious light cole slaw (optional, but HIGHLY recommended) and included some amazing waffle fries and a drink. I'm not sure how they can stay in business giving you that much food for such a low price. I've tasted southern BBQ in the deep south, and this was as good or better than any pulled pork I've ever eaten. Other fun items on the menu included the brisket, ribs, chicken, burgers, and dogs. The Blisters dog is wrapped in bacon and they have a deep-fried dog that is [literally] to die for. The fries come with Blister's tasty fry sauce, which is unique and very hard to decribe. It is also potentially addictive. Blister's BBQ is less than one mile west of Rexburg on Main street, at Mother Hibbards. It isn't much to look at since its located in the gas station/food stop. It has an intentionally dive-y feel (the menu is written on sheet metal with a marker), but don't be deceived. The quality of the food and the size of the servings are off-the-charts. People of Rexburg: Unite and do what is necessary to keep this place in business! My taste buds are counting on you. read more

I'm a Texas girl, so I'm picky when it comes to BBQ, but so far, Idaho has not disappointed! I eat Blister's about once a week! The brisket is my favorite meat there and their macaroni is soooo good! Love this place. read more

I don't often find myself in Rexburg, but when I do...I'm at a gas station eating some tasty tri-tip. I actually find pleasure in the fact that this BBQ place is in a gas station because it's low-key and you don't expect much so it's all the better when the food is delicious. Get some gas, get some tri-tip, and then get some more tri-tip. Then you can leave Rexburg. read more

Not quite the southern BBQ I love, but definitely worth going and worth the prices- I love the brisket and the pulled pork. Not a fan of the stringy, homemade style fries, but their other sides are fantastic. Don't be afraid to walk into a gas station for BBQ- this one is a great one! read more

The best food in the City of Rexburg. I have graduated and left Rexburg, but my Blister's cravings will always haunt me! Great Carolina style BBQ (vinegar based, not ketchup based). My North Carolinian husband is the pickiest when it comes to BBQ, and he raved about it. He loves the pulled pork with extra crushed red pepper, and I am a big fan of the Cuban sandwich. Their waffle fries are also pretty terrific, and you leave feeling really full. Remember, you are NOT there for the atmosphere, you are there for the food! Blister's is hidden inside a (clean) gas station, and some people can't handle that fact. If you really have a problem with that, take it to go! If you want a hipster dance party, go to Sammy's. If you want a great, affordable meal, go to Blister's. Keep this one in business, Rexburg! read more

It is a great place even though it's in a gas station. Very fast service with amazing food. Try their Cuban if you like a slightly vinegary sandwich. I think their tri tip is delicious. I will continue to go here for lunch. read more

This little whole in the wall restaurant is amazing!! It was my first time going and hearing that it was located in a gas station had me questioning if I should! I got the Squealer Pulled Pork Sandwich combo with fries and coleslaw. For only $4.80!! The squealer is smaller portioned which seemed to be a good choice for the first time. When I got my meal it looked kind of small, wasn't sure if it would be enough (I eat a lot). I took my first bite and I was in heaven! So tasty!! I opted for the sweet sauce and it was perfect! The coleslaw and fries were delicious as well! They have 2 different fry sauces(for my east coast followers: ketchup and mayo with some special stuff) One of the sauces is made with vinegar and the other is sweet. I liked both! I will definitely be going back!! read more

Blister's BBQ - Squealer pulled pork Combo! - Barbeque Near Me - Rexburg, Idaho

One of my favorite places in town. Great brisket, awesome customizable burgers, and usually I'm not big on Turkey but their turkey sandwich is amazing! Glad these guys are around read more

Yes, its in a gas station. Yes it is delicious. This is probably the best pulled pork in Eastern Idaho. Their pulled chicken is made from rotisserie chicken. It's really really good. It's a little out of the way from where most of the restaurants are in Rexburg, but definitely worth the short trip. Their BBQ sauce is also SUPER flavorful. Please start botteling this stuff for sale. read more

Blister's BBQ - Tri tip, pulled pork, baked beans and coleslaw. Delicious! - Barbeque Near Me - Rexburg, Idaho

I feel like a lot of people are probably turned off by the fact that this place is inside a gas station. I actually love that. It has a great local, hole in the wall feel to it. The service was great. I told them that I'd never been in before and needed advice. They let me taste the pulled pork flavors and told me that a lot of people order the "cowgirl" which is two meats and a side. I ended up getting the sweet pork and ribs with fries. The food was delicious. The sweet pork in particular was amazing. I wasn't crazy about their regular pulled pork that I sampled, it had a strong vinegar taste. The ribs were good but the sweet pork definitely stole the show. The fries were decent. With delicious and reasonably priced food I think I'll make this my go-to BBQ place in this area. read more

We first saw Blister's food truck, but never had the chance to try it! We then found out they are located inside a gas station!! So we drove over, ordered to go and the food was bomb!! I ordered the Cuban (bigger than expected) and my husband ordered a pulled pork burger. Super tasty. Eager to order everything else . read more

Really delicious bbq and burgers from this place. The beans and coleslaw were fantastic and I was surprised how moist and delicious the smoked turkey was. Highly recommend! read more

Blisters is some of my very favorite BBQ, and I've had BBQ all over the country. There fries and white chili are also killer.

Ribs are really good, brisket is okay cause I don't like it's shredded and overly marinated.

Really good barbecue at a fair price. Love the ambiance, gas stations are my favorite but they gave us no napkins or forks so we had to wash our hands with the meaty barbaque sauce and use the barbaque sauce lids as forks so overall great. read more

It really doesn't look like much on the outside but the food is really good!! It's a little bit pricey for me to buy regularly but it's worth it every once in a while read more

Every time I come here I am amazed at how wonderful the food is. It is super delicious and tasty. However the prices seem a little steep at times but I understand that good BBQ isn't cheap. However otherwise I think they are great. read more

Okay so, I usually don't write reviews, but my experience here really needed shared. Long story short, for such a humble looking place, this place throws down. And I'm going to be craving this food for a long time to come. The longer version of this story is: I tend to love BBQ places. I just love the different takes on BBQ sauces, and that is almost the sole reason I go to BBQ places. But, above my love of BBQ is my love of a Cuban sandwich. I have been on the hunt for the best Cuban sandwich for years now. So whenever I see one on a menu, I am obliged to order one. Much to my surprise, at this BBQ place, there's a Cuban on the menu. Honestly, I didn't expect much. But oh my goodness! Was I wrong? Full disclosure, not what I, myself, would consider a true "Cuban", but it was nonetheless OUT.STANDING. Truly. The vinegar pork, was truly the star of the show and I'd eat that stuff by the quart. Bravo to this place. I'll certainly be back! read more

Best BBQ I have experienced in a long time and it came from a gas station in Rexburg Idaho. Their bacon wrap dogs, pulled pork, brisket, and, oh man, that Turkey was to die for. Excellent!! read more
