Would be nice to know if they ever open regular hours. We have been here a couple times in the past few months and no go. Kinda shitty.

It's ok. The blue cheese coleslaw is yummy. They have a nice BBQ sauce and hot sauce, but the portions are skimpy. I realize you pay for quality, but their brisket plate ($15) is seriously 2-3 thin slices of brisket. Which is fine for a small or even lunch portion, but that's the dinner portion. The brisket had some a little under smoked (cooked) fat in it also. read more

Bone Daddy's - Dinner Brisket Plate ($15) - Barbeque Near Me - Midland, Michigan

See all

What is wrong with the baked beans at this place? They are gross. Read some other reviews, lighter fluid and kerosene are common descriptors. The prime rib was fine. I wouldn't call it "award winning," though. There was hair in my cheesy potatoes. Look, I understand a strand slips through every now and then. Normally I just pull it out and keep eating. After 10 hairs I stopped counting and threw out the whole bowl. Do they have a disgruntled Sasquatch preparing food in the back? I wouldn't blame them based on how I saw the manager treat their staff. She berated the teenage waiter for "reaching across the table" to put down my food tray. Then I heard her gossiping with another patron about how "stupid" their other employee was for "dating that trailer trash repair man." How unprofessional can you get? Super disappointed in this place. It came with high recommendations and has nice decor. Unfortunately extremely mediocre food, lack of basic sanitation, and rude management ruin it. Completely failed to live up to the hype. read more

Have tried so many items and loved them all...my all time go to is the Beef Brisket...but the smoked turkey dynamite sandwich right up there for a favorite. Love the berry tarts...and those smoked beans with the added zest..and the seasoned fries., friendly and fast service...great atmosphere with all the barn like features... read more

Really good BBQ. The sausage was exceptional and the ribs were excellent. I got the sampler plate which also included brisket. Sides were good as well. Baked beans were sweet but tasty. Cole slaw a bit above average. read more

This is a very good spot. our office orders here quite often and have been for years. I have never had a bad meal here . definitely one of the best bbq joints in midland . read more

Great brisket Corn bread very good Beans have a kick The place is small so it is crowded read more

Solid BBQ joint in the little town of Midland, MI. If had had never experienced the BBQ perfection at places like Union Woodshop (Clarkston) and Lillie's Q (Chicago), this place would have likely gotten an extra star or 2. I had the sampler plate with Ribs and Brisket. Both were fine, but nothing special that I remember. I was extremely excited for the Blue Cheese potato salad, unfortunately, it was not quite as good as I anticipated. That said, if you are looking for some solid BBQ up in the Midland area, I'm quite sure you will not do better than Bone Daddy's! read more

Had a cat Fish Dinner So salty and over priced Will not ever go back to the Midland restaurant 17.98 For dinner should be point on and Delish read more

I went for lunch with my colleagues and we had an amazing time there. Food selection is 8/10 Location 10/10 Service 10/10 : The staff is very friendly and down to earth. Overall 9/10 i will be going back during dinner time to try the ribs and the cornbread. read more

Ok. I give up. Drove there three times and every time it was closed (latest was this afternoon ). Always checked the website first or called. Today did both. Got a busy signal so naturally assumed must be open. Nothing on the website to show a change in days or hours. read more

This place is great. Get a spud, ribs or brisket and make sure u get the cornbread muffins

Best ribs ever! I'm from Michigan but when I stumbled upon this place for the first time I KNEW it had to be the rib place I have been dreaming of for years. My husband and I tasted every rib at the rib cook of in Reno, NV where we live now (lake tahoe) and we laughed for years that midland Michigan was by FAR the best ribs we have ever had! Finally years later and we stumbled across this place and sure enough it was "the place" and the ribs tasted even better than I remember! read more

Great BBQ done by an award winning cook. And in this part of Michigan it's about the only decent BBQ you can get. Ribs, chicken, brisket and sausage are great but my favorite is the pulled pork. Probably my favorite pulled pork. Amazing beans and decent corn bread. They have very weird hours that seem to change so I would definitely call ahead to make sure they are open. Sometime they close early when they run out of food since it takes so long to smoke something. I was there when they closed early and it looked like they had run out of ribs so they turned off their open sign and let us eat while they began cleaning their kitchen. Prices are pretty good for how much food you get and the quality as well. If you are in the area and like BBQ it's a must eat at restaurant. read more

The barbecue here is about the worst I've ever had. Granted, there is not a lot to choose from in the area, thus the good reviews. If you've ever been to Tennessee, Texas, or Kansas City and had good barbecue, you know. Meats are too fatty and have too much gristle. There's also way too much smoke in the beans and sauce. Not sure if this is liquid smoke, or just poor execution. read more

There's a reason that this was rated the best BBQ in Michigan last year. The amazing taste! The owner knows his stuff and provides an amazing experience for your tastebuds. The meat is good quality cuts smoked to perfection, then comes the sauce. It's sweet, spicy, smokey, and savory all at once in perfect balance. The weekends with smoked prime rib are amazing. Great family business that provides timeless high quality taste. read more

Closed again during working hours. What a shame. Always call ahead to make sure they will be working.

Finally got a chance to try their prime rib special which is available most Saturday evenings. O.M.Gosh! It was the best I've ever had, by far! So tender and juicy with just the right amount of seasoning. The sides of grilled veges, and cheesy potatoes were a wonderful addition. Very reasonably priced also! Highly recommend trying this if you're there on a Saturday evening, but everything on the menu is equally delicious! read more

Went to check out this place and found it closed during business hours. Checked facebook and their website for any posts about closures beforehand, got there and not so much as a note was left on the door. 5 pm on a Saturday. Several other vehicles pulled up and drove off too, when we saw another patron actual check the door. read more

Went there at 12pm and were closed. Sign said open at 11am on door sooo was first and last time i went there.

We get their BBQ sauce from the store all the time and love it. Decided to give this place a try tonight and was very disappointed. The pulled pork and brisket were mostly fat. The flavor was good but the texture from all the fat really turned me off to it. My ribs were delicious but my wife's were too tough. On top of all this, everything was luke warm. I thought the beans were good at first but the more I ate the more I tasted grease or fat in the sauce. I couldn't even finish them. The only save was the corn bread muffin. Very good, and I'm glad it came with two. I may have just gone on a bad night or something but for now, I won't be recommending this to anyone. read more

I had to visit a few times before I could give them an honest rating. It definitely deserves 5 stars! All of their choices of meat are outstanding. My favorite has been Bone Daddy's Favorite which is a pile of thick sliced brisket served on a bun but good luck eating it like a sandwich. Second favorite was their Smoked Turkey. It was smoked to perfection and full of flavor. The Smokehouse Beans are a great side. They must smoke those for hours as well because their is so much flavor. I was served the Blue Cheese Coleslaw by mistake rather than regular but I am glad that happened, that is definitely my go-to side from now on. I have used their BBQ sauce a few times as home and it is right on the money with all aspects of what a sauce should be, just the right amount of sweet, tang, smoke, spice, and thickness. I have to warn you though, you will come out of their smelling of smoked BBQ but honestly who wouldn't expect that from a true BBQ joint?! read more

Best BBQ restaurant in the area hands down. The food has great flavor and the staff was very helpful and polite. I even got to meet the owner who took the time to explain some BBQ tips to me and show me his bbq pit. Purchased some of their sauce to take home and it is incredible!! read more

Bone Daddy's Bbq was simply excellent. Stopped by on my way thru town and decided to stop by. Thank God I did. The Ribs and Brisket were on point and the sides were great. Will definitely stop by again and would recommend them to anyone !!!! read more

The ribs are second to none the pulled pork is juicy and very flavorful the brisket I have never had better also you might want to try the turkeys or hams during the holidays I've had both and I can't tell you how delicious and satisfying they are by my entire family and also served at my moms Celebration of life the Decour in the restaurant is old school barbecue very clean the folks that work there are very friendly and helpful the owners Bill and Kim Wall Are very gracious I can't think of a better place to recommend to family friends or a stranger read more

A total gem! Food tasted delicious - we had the sampler and if we have to choose our favorite, we have to say the brisket. YUM! Also, I'm an onion rings fan and theirs was crunchy and cheap, like $1.80 cheap. Too bad I was too full to order a 2nd serving of those O-Rings. The lady who took our order was very nice; she acknowledged us when we came in even though she was on the phone with someone else, she recommended the sampler since it was our first time there, and she brought the food to our table too. A great experience at Bone Daddy's! read more

Everything was pretty good. There was a sign that said, "Beware, Men are Cooking" but everyone who was back in the kitchen were women. My favorite here were actually the cornbread and the beans. Yum, the beans had a bbq taste to it. Then I would go for the pulled pork sandwich, then ribs, then sausage. Yum, their sauce makes everything good. The blue cheese cole slaw was also good. They should have one here. read more

I really, really do not know how they have won anything before. Food tasted like gas, sides smelled bad and were bland. To much fat on some things. Thank goodness i live in Kansas City now with good bbq! read more

We were excited to visit their new location and the food was very tasty, however I'm not here to review their food. The owner appeared to be intoxicated and being rude to all his employees. We will not go back, nobody enjoys watching him belittle and disrespecting hard working people. read more

The best BBQ I've had in Michigan! They caught my attention while watching a tv show about "Best Ribs in the Midwest", where they had won some competition. And since they're not too far away, I pledged to try it out the next time I was anywhere near. Well worth the trip! I tried the sampler and every bit was stellar. I'm normally a ribs fan, but I would say the brisket was actually the best thing on the plate: moist, tender, and smokey. I love their sauce. read more

Great barbecue. If you like corn bread and slaw where you can taste the cabbage this is the place. Baked beans are real smokey in flavor and the portions are big for the price. In my opinion the brisket is by far the best of the meat dishes. read more

Is Bonedaddys closed down or on hiatus? So what's the deal with Bonedaddys? A while back I noticed that their website is dead and now the place has been closed for over a week. The big sign is still advertising from the Superbowl week. They were normally closed on Sunday and Monday but their neon signs were always lit up inside the windows. Now its all dark all the time and no tracks in the snow since that last big storm. Maybe they couldn't sustain $21.00 for a rack of ribs. read more

I've spent a lot of time in "barbecue country" - Texas, Kansas City, North Carolina. Each place distinct in it's own style, with passionate devotees. Don't come here expecting a copy of another regional style - Bone Daddy's is uniquely Midwestern. Their menu is simple and the dining is casual. Their food is consistent, and delicious. Hands-down, the tri-tip their best, when it's available, but the brisket is my go-to choice here. I really appreciate the no frills style. read more

Dear god. The beans...the BEANS! This place is awesome. All of their sides are pretty lackluster but the actual BBQ and their baked means more than make up for some out-of-the-deli potato salad or boxed corn muffin mix. Their sauce has a lil' bit of heat and is very nicely balanced as far as the spicy/sweet/vinegar triangle goes. I can see why they're sitting on so many awards. Definitely stop by if you're in Midland. read more

I highly recommend eating at Bone Daddy's. The meals are very filling. Everything on their menu is delicious from the burgers to the pulled pork to the beef brisket to the ribs and so on. Typically every week or two they have specialty dishes that are a delicious addition to your meal. read more

Outstanding ribs and brisket. My favorite is a burger though. Sante Fe Joe. Great burger. We have been eating lunch here every Friday for the past 6 years. read more

Excellent food all the way around. Walked out back of the restaurant and the owner is back there cooking with the big smokers. Be prepared to take out during lunch time. There are not that many seats and always taken. (sign of good food) read more

I stopped by here excited for some BBQ as an out of towner. Even though ribs were recommended, I went wit hthe pulled pork. That was a bad choice. It was probably the fattiest pulled park sandwich I have ever had - it was gross. I'm finished a quarter of the sandwich and stopped. If I ever went back, I would go with the ribs as they did look really good. read more

My husband and I wanted to stop by for some BBQ. Unfortunately, this place was either closed today or permanently closed, since there were no cars in the parking lot. The tall grass was dead giveaway. read more

Amazing bbq! Been in Midland for 4 years now and never knew it was here. What a gem, everyone should go here especially NU students
