    Best BBQ!! We decided to take a Sunday drive to Wellston to try Butchers BBQ and it was definitely worth it! We did have to wait in line about 25 minutes on a Sunday at 1230, which was not bad! We got the ribs, pulled pork/brisket sandwich, tater tot casserole, beans, and potato salad. We tried a cocktail at the nostalgic 80's bar, and they make a great Old Fashioned cocktail.

    Platter of so many options!

    The butcher stand has a robust history starting out as a small food truck sized stand and expanding to a sit down restaurant with a gift shop. You have to arrive early because they get a line and sell out quickly. My favorite was the burnt ends (fatty brisket, no sauce) and the Mac and cheese. We got the platter to try a bit of everything including sausage, chicken, turkey, and pulled pork. The sauces and sweet tea are fire, of course. They have limited hours, so get here early and prepare to feast!

    A double meat locker

    It lives up to the hype. It's just classic no frills bbq of the highest quality. Sure it's a drive, sure it's a line, sure they run out of certain food within a couple hours but it's WORTH IT. We got there at 9 but truth be told most people didn't start rollin in until 10 to wait in line. They don't open until 11. We got a double of the meat locker to feed us and we had left overs. I mean look at that meat spread. Everything was delicious but the ribs were especially good!

    Every so often you have a meal where it truly feels like a privilege to have eaten it. This is one of those times. Having heard about this place over the years I've been meaning to try it, but since they're only open three days a week it made it a little more challenging. Since I had the day off on a Friday, I decided to drive out to Wellston to check it out and I'm so happy I did. It was quite the experience and definitely worth the drive. I had a half slab of ribs as well as a smoked sausage link. The sausage was excellent, but what really made the meal was their ribs. The honey rub that they had on there is some of the best I've ever had anywhere in the United States. This was one of those times where when I finished my meal I was genuinely sad because I wanted more. The people who work here are so friendly and make you feel like you're at a close relatives from back in the day when life was simpler. I can't recommend this place enough. Please drive out to Wellston and check them out!

    We drove out here on Labor Day. It did not dawn on me to check as see if they were open. I just assumed but they are only open Fri-Sun and closed the rest of the week. Butchers is a BBQ staple and the owners have been featured on of the top bbq competition shows. Looks like a huge place with online ordering pickup on one end and the main building on the other. There was a huge fenced in area tht would be outdoor seating. Route 66 is under heavy construction and the signs say road closed but you can still get to the restaurant. The road is closed just after tht but pay attn as it is a little tricky.

    Mac n cheese, burnt ends, ribs, corn, rednexican nachos, pulled pork slider

    These boys can bbq. My favorite is the turkey and burnt ends. The Mac a cheese and corn is a staple of the sides I choose. You honestly cannot go wrong. Service is wonderful and so is all the interior improvements made over the years.

    2 meats with pulled pork, burned ends, Mac and cheese, and beans
    Karene C.

    First, I want to mention there is construction off the turnpike so we ended up having to drive around the construction on a gravel road, which added an extreme amount of time just to get there. We had our dog so we needed to seat ourselves outside. It seemed peaceful until we picked up our food. Once our food was there, the experience went to miserable quickly. The bees were absolutely swarming. We grabbed to go boxes and left. Maybe some of the food would have been better fresh but we now had to drive it home. The food was decent but I don't understand the $50 price tag. The best item was the beans. 2nd best was the burnt ends. Chicken was average. Pork was greasy. Mac and cheese was okay. We could not eat the potato salad. It had a strange flavoring that neither of us cared for. In our opinion not worth the drive or price.

    Inside
    Janee' T.

    Customer service was very nice. I called to place an order and the gentleman helping me was very patient and knowledgeable. The ambiance was pretty cool. Nice decor in the restaurant. We ordered the meat locker. The food was really good too. The ribs had a great smoke taste and were very tender. Everything had good flavor. I like the jalapeño and cheddar sausage. Chopped brisket , sliced turkey was very flavorful too. I mean everything was good. The sides were okay which was apple pie baked beans, mac and cheese, and the corn. I wish they gave a bigger portion of sides considering it's like a family pack being ordered . I'm glad I finally got to experience this place.

    Ribs and burnt ends
    Adelia S.

    Best BBQ I have ever had. This place is worth the stop in Oklahoma. The burnt ends are tender and melt in your mouth. The brisket was juicy and had a nice smoky flavor. The inside is very cute and creates a perfect family atmosphere. They have a bar where it takes you to back in the day and reminds of your grandmothers home. Service was quick and friendly.

    Barbecue was good in fact delicious. The inside was cool and very country like. The people there are nice helping kind and funny. They give you a fake name to call out, mine was cleopatra lol. However it is rather expensive for two people it was $30 but I think it makes up for the food

    The family platter food
    Am P.

    Butchers is some of the best BBQ I've ever had in Oklahoma. Just be prepared to wait in line because it is first come first serve here. Once you get up to order your food they come up with a custom name for you to pick up your food, service was amazing! They also have a little gift shop where you could buy their signature sauces and seasons. I would 100% come try this place out if you are driving by or if you looking for a new place to try, it will blow you away!

    How early should I arrive on Sunday? Is beer served on Sunday?

    If you arrive at 10:30am, you should be in good shape unless you want to be the first in line. As far as I know, they serve beer as well.

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.

My kids know the drill, and now that they are big enough to navigate from the front seat, at least one of the them (depending on the weather, time of day, and level of hangry) is willing to be my PIC. "Mahhm! this place looks good! It's a mile off the highway [well-trained, huh?], and it has all different kinds of barbecue. There are 21 reviews and they're, like, almost all five stars!" Then the naysayer speaks up, wanting a lesson in averages- how can it be five stars if not all the reviews are five stars? Such explanation was just long enough to entertain us before pulling under the covered parking (limited, but it exists!) at Papa's Barbecue. Prices are $$ (but what isn't these days, esp. if we're not doing Mickey D's, which... we're not), and the kids both assure me they will eat their whole sandwich. So we order one for each: S has the (small... i.e., regular size) pulled pork sandwich with a side of fried okra, C has the bacon cheeseburger with a side of fried okra, and I have the (small, i.e., regular size) sliced brisket sandwich with a side of sweet potato fries. $26. We enjoyed our wait, as the place (a reno'ed gas station) was cute and clean. I'm not a fan of cutesy- it was not that. It was thoughtfully well-crafted, with the cleanest exterior bathrooms I've ever seen. The kids, during our wait, caught sight of the complimentary ice cream dispenser, and I honestly have no idea how I was able to get out of that one. We took our order to go, after picking up some pickles from the pickle bar, dousing my sandwich in some barbecue sauce on the table, and perusing the everlasting hot sauce bar. I took one bite of my brisket, on a sweet potato (not sweet potato, but sweet, potato) bun, and closed my eyes. It was so tender, so tasty, so worthy of five stars. I don't always eat barbecue, but when I do, I want it to taste like this. I tasted the kids' sandwiches, too, and was glad we all ordered something different. Each sandwich was strong on flavor and clearly the work of someone who figured out how to craft barbecue. While I loved their sandwiches, I think the sliced brisket was my favorite. We'll be back to Papa's. The next time we're in a rush to get out of town, I'm not stopping at Sonic. The next time we're in a rush to have dinner as we arrive from out of town, I'm not stopping at Whole Foods. We're going to Papa's, and we're ALL getting ice cream. And pickles. Not at the same time.

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.

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.
