Good, lowkey barbecue spot all around. Lynn was a fantastic server who made me feel very welcomed. She recommended some items and gave me samples of said items as well. I ended up going with everything she suggested and couldn't have been happier. Lynn needs a raise! I especially loved the fries. Also, super inexpensive daily specials!!

Brobecks Barbeque - Burnt Ends + Steak Fries + Ribs + Salad - Barbeque Near Me - Overland Park, Kansas

This definitely is on the lower end of my bbq list of Kansas City. We got this delivered, which sure maybe that altered the results but nonetheless we shall move on. I ordered the 3 meat plate, which I chose brisket (my fave), came with sausage and ribs. Got an order of corn nuggets and le bf ordered a turkey sandwich. The turkey sandwich was as PALE as can get and looked definitely like Budig store bought meat. Which isn't bad, but when you're used to having a delish smoked turkey sandwich from every other bbq spot, this was extremely underwhelming. Brisket was the driest meat I've ever had. Ribs were good, sausage was the best. Sauce was delish, tangy but sweet and corn nuggets saved the day but overall wouldn't be back. read more

Brobeck's has been on my to-do list for many years, so I was glad to finally stop in while I was in their neighborhood. I had just finished a 6 stop caffeine crawl and was wired to the max and wasn't really hungry, but knew that I needed some food of substance in my belly before my jitters turned to convulsions. I was expecting a bit of an upscale vibe with it's Indian Creek / Overland Park address, but it felt like walking into a small town diner; and that's a positive for me. The friendly waitress told us she recommended the ribs and burnt ends and they were known for their ham salad. Ham salad? at a BBQ joint? Hmmm... that's a strange niche to be known for but okay. After placing my order she returned with a complimentary 4 oz condiment cup filled with ham salad and some crackers. I understand now! That was delicious and I regret now not taking home a quart of the stuff to pig out on with some fancy crackers or gourmet chips this weekend. I ordered the burnt end sandwich with a slaw topper. The sandwich was large and sauce free to showcase the smoked meats. Although it was not the best burnt ends that I've experienced, there's no shame in their game; with a nice bark / end and flavorful tender smoky beef. The size of the sandwich was larger than expected for the price point and the 3 sauces at the table made for some nice alternating dipping options. Brobecks deserves a return visit from me when I'm ready to devour more of that menu - the "All you can eat ribs" special for $27 on Wednesday nights would be tempting, but fortunately I work Wednesday evenings so I won't be making a gluttonous fool of myself. The to-go ham salad next time - bets are off for a gluttonous adventure behind locked doors! read more

Wow!! I had tried this place at my office we ordered it in, but we decided to dine in this evening and it was all the hype! I loved the service and the quality of food. We shared corn nuggets and a large sandwich both were delicious. They have 3 different sauces to try a sweet, and sweet n spicy plus a golden bbq. We loved every one of them. Get in here to this diner it's callin your name. read more

Ribs were meaty but there was a grainy texture in whatever seasoning they use. Beans tasted like can beans. I ordered in so can't speak to location. Coleslaw was great. read more

If you are looking for authentic, Kansas City-style BBQ, Brobeck's is a must-visit. Their signature dry rub is incredible, and the burnt ends are consistently tender and flavorful. It's a local favorite for a reason--the atmosphere is welcoming and the portions are generous. I also highly recommend the smoked ham and the creamy coleslaw. The portions are huge, the staff is incredibly friendly, and the vibe is classic, no-nonsense BBQ. If you're a fan of authentic smokehouse flavors, this place is a 10/10. read more

Food- really good Service - good Ambiance - a non-de-plume bbq joint 1st time here as of 1/28/25. The second you walk in you get the BBQ aroma, and the hint that "this is going to be good!" Had the burnt ends and 1 rib combo with baked beans and cheesy corn as my 2 sides. Beans are good for sure. Cheesy corn is almost as good as J.Stack IMHO. Baby Back rib was so good that I may need to get at least a 1/2 slab next time. Burnt Ends were soft and chewey, smoky and great flavor. Nice touch @ the table of a good KC BBQ sauce AND a good NC BBQ sauce as well (more mustard based). Very casual spot a mini-Mahomes throw away from Wooden Spoon on Nall and 103rd. read more

I did take out. I really enjoyed the Smokey Joe's sandwich- it was small though, definitely pair it with something else. I also had the banana cheesecake which tasted artificial to me. I'd come back and try more options. read more

Burnt ends were very dry. Super sad. The barbecue sauce has a cloyingly sweet artificial brown sugar flavor. Unremarkable bland glommed up macaroni and cheese which was more pasta than anything else like flavor or cheese. The cheesy corn was very good. Plenty of wonderful black pepper mixed with cheesy flavor. Very dry small chunks of pork belly on the pork belly Cobb salad. The salad was otherwise very well appointed with ingredients like cheese, egg, and onion. Tasty soft homemade $1 cookies. Chocolate cake was kinda dry but the buttercream frosting was good. read more

This is a great barbecue restaurant located just north of Winstead's, near Roe and 435. The ham salad is their specialty and it is magnificent! It was almost as good as my grandma used to make. That is a huge compliment as she was considered to be the best cook and baker in her town. The spare ribs here are some of the best I've had in Kansas City! The baby back ribs were very good also but I prefer the former. The coleslaw was creamy, but not too sweet. The beans weren't cloyingly sweet like Slaps (which are disgusting), and they have a little mustard in them and some meat as well. Pretty decent beans. I really did not care for the burnt ends. They were brisket burnt and about 50% fat in all. I had to pick them apart and throw several pieces away that were only fat. I guess the chance you take. I will most certainly be back for the ribs and the coleslaw. The ham salad is all time. Great spot! read more

Okay, not being from these parts..... I've come to realize that BBQ here, (KC & St Louis), is a religion. KC has more but St L is as good. They're just better overall. So, Brobeck's? Perfect ribs, tender, tasty and amazing sauces. Perfect beans, not too sweet. Perfect coleslaw, creamy and very naturally flavored. The service was genuinely caring. I had a wonderful and sweet and friendly server named Ju Ju. 5,6,7 stars!!!! read more

Wow... Y'all call this BBQ?!?! It definitely smelled like tasty smoke when I walked in, but the food I got was anything but... Service was moderately decent, but friendly. The menu was normal and decent. I opted for their brisket and jalapeño sausage along with beans and slaw as sides. The brisket was horrible! I can't believe any smokehouse or BBQ joint would plate something like that. It was clearly made ahead of time, like yesterday and then pan seared or microwave or heated in some inappropriate way for service. There were cooked juices/grease all over the plate in fact - GROSS! Check the pics, no brisket should ever look like that! The sausage resembled and very smooth external casing texture, like hot dogs. The bite texture matched that and the flavor definitely wasn't of a smoked jalapeño sausage, rather one of a cooked hot dog... very disappointing. The sides weren't that great either... I had to add tons of salt & pepper to the slaw and the beans were just hopeless. Sad and disappointed because this is the type of BBQ I'd expect where I live, in the Northern VA/DC area, but not at all what I'd every expect from the second best BBQ region in the world (Texas is most definitely, without a doubt, 100% the BEST! And it's places like this that prove that point). Maybe it was an off day... I don't know. But in my case, I don't visit here often, so you only get one chance to get it right... all restaurants should know this and act this way. I'd never return. read more

Everything here is fantastic, but hands down my favorite is the ham salad with chips and crackers! Our server was just the sweetest, and took excellent care of us.

Brobecks Barbeque - Ham salad appetizer - Barbeque Near Me - Overland Park, Kansas

Disappointed to say the least. Hands down the worst bbq I've had in KC. Burnt ends were chewy and super fatty, brisket was dry and lifeless, sausage was kinda salty, beans tasted like they were straight outta the can, and the fries were just ok. Nothing tasted seasoned at all. I had to use a lot of sauce just to put some flavor on the meat and that's not something I have to do at a good bbq place. So many bbq places in the area to choose from and I always tell people outside of KC how difficult it is to get bad bbq in the KC area, but I was wrong. Service was fine, but we went for the food. read more

I've been back several times just to pick up ham salad to go. It's in a refrigerator so pick the size you want and take it to the register. Warning, it's addictive so go ahead and get the biggest size. read more

Awful. Online specials are wrong. Food is bad. Worst brisket I've ever had. This is a strip mall bbq diner. Stay away.

Awesome BBQ. I had ribs and burnt ends. Super friendly staff, good atmosphere, good prices. I will return.

Elite service! So I placed a pickup order through Uber Eats. When I arrived the system made a mistake and they cooked a double of my order(was only charged once). Instead throwing it away or making me pay for both, they just gave it to me. They were extremely nice, so I made sure I gave them a tip because I appreciated them giving me the free food. As for the food, I had a two meat sandwich which was sliced sausage, and ham on a triple-decker sliced bread. The ham was flavorful and juicy, with the sausage being close to perfect. The other part of the order was a brisket sandwich, lean cut that wasn't dry & had the right amount of smoke. I do recommend the mustard bbq sauce they serve, it's extremely addictive. Food is good & service is better. Support local & go check them out. read more

The staff was super friendly, and the place was clean and busy. I got the Ol Ray's Favorite. I chose jalapeño cheddar sausage, pulled pork, and sliced brisket. I had white cheddar mac n cheese and coleslaw for sides. The jalapeño cheddar sausage was thinly sliced, which made it dry. Had a little heat and good flavor but dry. I should have gotten the sausage chunked instead of sliced. I think it would have been juicier. The pulled pork was lightly smoked, but it was dry, too. The sliced brisket was excellent, though! It had great smoke flavor. The house bbq sauce was really good. Slaw was bland, and the mac n cheese was ok. Overall, it wasn't bad trip. read more

Brobecks Barbeque - Ol Ray's Favorite - Barbeque Near Me - Overland Park, Kansas

We were in town for a couple days and had a mandatory need to try some barbecue, we chose the right place with Brobecks! We had excellent service from Kimberly, and the young man behind the counter as well. The food was amazing, generous portions and reasonable prices. Our party of 6 tried so many things on the menu! The ribs, pulled pork, corn nuggets, cheese curds, white macaroni and coleslaw were are all delicious. I didn't try it but was told the brisket Mac and cheese was also amazing and it did look really good! If we're ever in the area again, we'll be back for sure! read more

Back again and still excellent. My kid has the half rack of baby backs and is in love. Seems like I always have the same nice older lady as our server and she's all over it. Same old comfortable feel in this place that I love. read more

The KC area has a lot of BBQ choices in all directions. I liked Brobecks BBQ after being convinced to go to one of my mainstay BBQ places located in the city. I was a little leery but I was pleasantly surprised. First, the line moved quickly and the hostess/server was truly sincere and attentive with great recommendations of sides and what to try. I really dug the creamed corn and the ribs. Really tender and I also had some burnt ends. Really meaty and thick ends that were tender....delicious. I wish I could remember our servers name, her bubbly personality made ordering fun. Just a super place to try. read more

Brobecks has good KC BBQ. It's deep smoked & very favorable. They have two kinds of ribs, St Louis style & baby backs. I usually prefer St Louis style at most places, but Brobecks baby back ribs are good sized and & l really liked them. On Fridays they have a double pork chop which l loved. read more

I was impressed with the delicious ribs, the reasonably-priced lunch specials, and the fast, attentive service during my dine-in lunch. The Wed lunch special included three ribs, choice of 1/4 meat, choice of side, pickle slices, and a drink for $11.95. It was served just a few minutes after I ordered at the table. The ribs were especially good - meaty, lean, flavorful, smoky, and not greasy - nice! I also liked the turkey and the beans. They offered two homemade sauces - a sweet molasses, and a vinegar-based mustard - both of which were very good. I found the dining area to be clean and nice with country background music and two beers on tap. Overall, very nice! read more

I was introduced to their Smoked Ham Salad years ago and its addicting! I don't live in KC so when I was in town and just happened to drive by this past week I HAD to stop and get a lb. OMG-as wonderful as I remember and the staff was so friendly. Go get you some Smoked Ham Salad!! read more

First time ordering Brobecks for delivery. I had heard a lot of great things about Brobecks so I was excited to try my first bite. Unfortunately, I was extremely disappointed when my sandwiches arrived and there wasnt even a dash of bbq sauce on either of them. There was no option to add sauce or order extra sauce on the app. Called to see if I could get extra sauce delivered. I was told that it wasn't possible and that in the future I need to ask for extra sauce in the special instructions in the Yelp / GrubHub app. This does not meet the high standard set by other great KC BBQ places like Oklahoma Joes, Arthur Bryant's, Jack Stack, Blind Box and many others. read more

Great barbecue every time. They added the nachos this year which are amazing. The queso is fantastic and the pulled pork is quality. Pro tip - sub in bbq beans and dump on top along with sauce.

Every BBQ joint in KC has its own special "thing" - fries, dry rub, wet rub, cole slaw, etc. I would have to say that Brobeck's "thing" would be its customer service. Our server was great, she took her time to go over the menu in detail and give us her own personal suggestion. I went with the daily special and was not disappointed. I got a lot of meat and mashed potatoes for $10. She kept coming back to fill our drinks and to make sure our meal was good. Because of that I will be back. Plus I need to try their burnt ends they looked and smelled great. read more

Two words. Ham Salad. A delicious appetizer or meal served with fresh chips. You will find something here you like.

Stopped by on my way to Texas. Had a rack of ribs with Cheese corn, chips and chocolate cake. The Ribs: Awesome smoke. Tender with no gristle. Very well done. About 2mm of smoke penetration and meaty. They provided a KC Molasses BBQ and a Carolina Mustard BBQ sauce. Both paired really well, so whether you like sweet or tangy, you're set. Cheese Corn: Different. I've never had and I'm sure what to think honestly. It was cheesy and creamy with added spice, but it wasn't my cup of tea. My kids enjoyed it though! Chips: Literally potato chips, but definitely fresh and from real potato slices. Nicely seasoned and crisp. A real chip! Chocolate Cake: Holy Diabetes. This was SUPER rich, but it was good. One slice was $2.50 and 3 of us barely finished it. Take one home and nibble on it. Definitely needs milk! read more

I can't believe this place is rated as high as it is. Went for lunch I had the brisket sandwich and bro had pulled pork sandwich. Meat was dry and had no flavour. Service was decent but Arby's is honestly better read more

A very local joint. The ribs are five star. The gray lifeless brisket? One. The sausage is a split decision: Grainy for texture but tasty. Barbecue sauce? Sweeter. Lacks pop. In the plating department, popping a couple of wet naps on the platter, rather than the sides, which arrive on a fairly useless side plate? Very institutional. Service was good, much better if you're a regular. If it was in Salt Lake City it's a top cue joint. In Kansas? Won't thrill ya. Won't kill ya. read more
