Amazing! This small store front restaurant is a gem. I had the Bourbon Glazed Pork chop, easily a top 3 pork chop ever. Nicely cooked with an even better tasting smoke and glaze. I strongly recommend it. Our server, Jaelyn, was very busy, since this appear to be a place where the locals hang out. She was very friendly, and attentive. A must come back or stop by when traveling. To add, they have a salad bar as a choice. The ambiance is enjoyable, with music in the background. Their sign is a real warning: "Notice, the food is made fresh for the day, and we do run out!" With the sample and food that I had, I believe it. read more

Fast service. The owner is out their BBQ at like 230am to have it ready in time for lunch to be served. The baked potatoes are phenomenal for your buck and will serve you and someone else I promise. Get pork or whatever u desire on top of it. read more

We ordered takeout from here on a Tuesday evening around 4-4:30. We walked-in to order, and the person who took our order was nice and patient as we looked over the menu and ordered. Food took about 15 minutes or so to be prepared, as expected. My wife ordered pulled pork, baked beans, and Mac & cheese (which they give you a generous and delicious portion of pulled pork but she said the baked beans tasted like she was eating a fire pit (they were so smokey-tasting) and the Mac & cheese was ok but nothing special). I ordered fried cheese sticks, a pulled chicken sandwich and fries (which all tasted good but nothing particularly stood-out. They do put a nice seasoning (presumably old bay seasoning or something similar) on the fries which I enjoyed) We both got the house bbq sauce but neither of us thought it was standout good. It wasn't bad though. Overall, the food and service was good so I'd say stop-in if you are hungry for bbq, but if you're a well-traveled bbq enthusiast you may want to temper your expectations. read more

Bluegrass BBQ - Pork sandwich and baked beans - Barbeque Near Me - Leitchfield, Kentucky

Bluegrass BBQ is hands down one of the BEST BBQ restaurants in the nation. I have sampled 'que from all over the country. Florida gator, Rodney Scott whole hog in Charleston, brisket from Black's in Lockhart, TX, pulled pork from Arrowhead Archery in KY...Bluegrass 'que stands proudly with the pantheon of destination locations for amazing BBQ. A small, industrial feel place, it is perfect for family dining. Super friendly staff greet you and treat you like old friends. The food itself is the pinnacle of your visit. Thick cut Bourbon-glazed Pork Chops, perfect bite-thru Baby Back Ribs, Chicken Wings that are these best that I have EVER tasted (see my photos in the review). And the sides are NOT an afterthought here - they are just as good as the awesome mains. Giant crispy Onion Rings, Vinegar Collards, a 2lb loaded Baked Potato...and all of their sauces are house made. EVERYTHING THEY SERVE IS SUPERB! My wife and I spent the meal nodding and grunting like Neanderthals, basking in the warmth of our taste buds dancing. Prices are very reasonable, portions are huge, the staff is wonderful and the BBQ is simply out of this world...do yourself a favor and drop in for treat you will never forget! read more

Litchfield, I hope you appreciate what you've got here. Bluegrass BBQ checks all the boxes: friendly, broad choices, outstanding turkey ribs, an array of not-overly- sweet sauces, black-peppery Green beans, solid burgoo, and banana pudding worth the price. Thanks. read more

So dang good. Stopped in from Louisville and this place is delicious. Our waiter Michelle was awesome. Pretzels and beer cheese were so good. Both brisket and the ribs were on point. Can't wait to stop in again. read more

I rate this thing 6 STARS I got the BIGGEST porkchop overall this place is fantastic I love it

I walked in excited to eat bbq but saw sign that said 4% charge for credit cards. That is outrageous. I walked out and did not/would not eat here. Edit: I am aware credit cards charge a fee though it is not 4% and I have never ever seen a restaurant with such a high credit card fee. The irony of claiming "America" is not lost when we know the real reason many businesses push their clients to cash is not the credit card fee, but to avoid their responsibility as an American to help fund our military, healthcare, police/fire departments, schools and libraries etc. read more

Great bbq!!! My wife went with the chicken bbq sandwich and Mac n cheese. While I went with the sampler, the ribs was awesome. Wings was good. Not a Military friendly location. read more

Came here with mom and my brother. We all loved this place. The baby back ribs were outstanding and all other dishes we tried were really good. Michele was our server and she was so friendly and helpful it made the dining experience that much better. Highly recommend this place! FYI, tip good service well! We overheard another table tipping her only 0.39 cents! That is insulting. Don't eat out if you won't pay people what they deserve. read more

Bailey was our friendly, informative server. Wifey ordered pulled pork with fried potatoes and cole slaw. It was all good. Bluegrass BBQ also makes their own sauce, mild, hot and extra hot. Wifey used the mild. I tried both mild and hot. The hot was good enough to buy a bottle to take home. Not TOO hot, just right. I spoke with the owners which is a couple. They opened just before COVID hit and restaurants were told to shut down. They made it through their hard time by Takeout orders. I'm not surprised they survived. I am confident Bluegrass BBQ is the best place to dine in Leitchfield and probably Grayson County. I ordered wings due to a review I read where someone claimed Bluegrass BBQ served up the BEST wings they EVER had. I was not disappointed. I also ordered smoked baked beans which had the smoked flavor. I liked that and was the first time ever eating smoked baked beans. I also ordered collard greens which has shredded meat in it. That was a PLUS and Bailey suggested a little vinegar in it which I tried. That was a very nice addition. Wifey and I don't usually have dessert when dining out, but Bailey convinced us to try something. Everything sounded so good so I asked Bailey what she would order. She told us the White Chocolate Cheesecake with strawberry sauce was her favorite. We ordered that and shared it. Wifey and I both liked it very much. Panita, one of the owner's, told us she drives to Louisville for the strawberry sauce. It's worth the drive. By this time we were stuffed. It would be nice to sample more offerings if we get back to Grayson County some time. read more

I'm not sure why I have waited five years to try this place. The worlds best banana pudding is right here! Excellent service! I got the baked potato loaded with pulled pork. It doesn't come with bbq sauce on it so you can pick from either their spicy or regular sauce. I couldn't eat but half of the potato. Large portions with appetizers, drinks, main course and dessert for two people for about $50. Price point is excellent. read more

I was in Liechtfield for the annual Twin Lakes National Fiddle Championship the next day. I saw on Yelp a highly rated BBQ place so I went there. It is very good! The owner, Patita, took my order. I had the brisket dinner with green beans, Cole slaw and cornbread. The brisket was very tender with good taste and smoke flavor. The Cole slaw was just the way I like it.... Not dry, and not finely chopped. The green beans had some pulled pork mixed in.... Tasted great. Everything was good, service, food, staff. Will be back again. I found out from the owner they will have their food truck at the fiddle contest tomorrow.... I'll believe I'll try the pulled pork. I used the spicy BBQ sauce, made in house. Very good, and it is spicy, just as I expected. read more

I travel to Leitchfield often for work. Periodically new restaurants pop up and are generally met with excitement from the folks in the area. I typically do not get as excited as those who call Leitchfield home lol. However, Bluegrass BBQ was an exception to that experience. It's a small outfit that appeared to me to be family owned. I wouldn't call it a "hole in the wall" as it has plenty of seating and a very nice atmosphere. But you can tell that it's smaller in scale and they take a lot of pride in the food and service. I mentioned that I got the recommendation from a coworker to check it out, and they were thrilled to hear it. I went with another coworker. I got the Turkey Ribs which I would 100% recommend. The platter came with 3 pretty sizeable ribs that were juicy and full of flavor. They were slightly sauced but not "drowning" in sauce which is something that I think lesser quality BBQ places do. Bluegrass lets the actual flavor of the meat speak for itself and provides bottles of sauce on the table for you to add as you prefer. A coworker got the Pulled Pork sandwich and thought it was quite good. In addition to our lunch we got free chocolate chip cookies and while they were on the small side they were very good. I'd recommend Bluegrass to anyone in the area and will let anyone on my team that also travels to the area know that's a must. read more

I stopped in while traveling down the western Kentucky parkway. I tried the sampler. It came with wings, ribs, two sliders, turkey ribs, and three sides. For the sides, I chose greens, coleslaw, and Deviled eggs. For the most part, the meats lacked seasoning and any hint of smoke flavor. They weren't horrible. They just needed a little salt and touch of sweetness. The wings and ribs were the better choice. The brisket was good too. Tender and not too fatty. But again lacking the seasoning and hint of smoke. The coleslaw was good. Has good balance of sweet and acid, but too much dressing. A little drier would have been perfect. The deviled eggs were a unique offering. You don't see them at many restaurants. These had rubbery whites with a bland filling. The greens were the best! Great flavor. Even better with the added side of vinegar. I'd give it another try if the kick up the seasoning and add some smoke! read more

Excellent barbecue! Michelle was very informative about the menu. Great service and prices. definitely will go back.

The wife and I got takeout here a few days ago after reading some reviews. The reviews did not lie. The wife got the 1/2 slab of ribs and I got the brisket. Both came with two sides. I must say everything was excellent and the wait staff when we picked up was very friendly. WE WILL BE BACK AND I CAN'T WAIT. Sides were good as well! read more

My daughter and son-in-law live in Leitchfield and found this place by "accident", dropped in and loved it. They took us when we came up and we loved it as well. I got the sampler and couldn't begin to eAt it all in one sitting. Turkey ribs, pork ribs, chicken wings, 2 sliders (I got the pulled pOrk) and 3 sides. We will definitely return when we come back to KY. Off the beaten path so you sort of have to be looKing for it but worth the trip. read more
