Food was and the service was very fast. I was prepared to wait because reviews said it is usually a wait. I went at around 2PM and was in and out within 10 minutes. Definitely will be seeing me again read more

I've been passing this place up for years and I finally wanted to visit this place after reading a few good reviews about it. It's a small family run establishment and on my visit, this place is bustling! Everything here is made from scratch! So it is idea to call and place an order because if you walk in and order it'll take 30 minutes easily and they let you know on the receipt! Some of the best rib tips I've had yet. Plenty of affordable options for everyone! I only wish they had baked beans here read more

I've been on a search for a good old school BBQ house. And Chicago Style BBQ have surpassed my expectations. When you pull up you can smell the charcoal and hickory wood. This was a really Good meal alittle to heavy on the sauce but a good meal! A little pricey but worth it. We ordered the 1/2lb rib tip and hit link combo and the Medium rib tip and link combo our total was $52. There is a about 16-20 min wait for the food and the place can get crowded fast. I will definitely be back! read more

Me and Hubby went to this place on yesterday evening 2/28 and they were so packed but they were getting people in and out, the staff was so so nice we will definitely go again read more

Best rib tips around definitely worth the wait I always get the mild and hot sauce mixed

Awful service. Mediocre food. They open and close when they want. They are not the only bbq joint in the area. Never again.

I always come here to pick up food for my fiance. He loves this place because it's so authentic. He always gets the hot rib tips and it's a one man show running the restaurant. He is the owner and says he can't keep anyone employed so he takes orders, cashes people out and cooks by himself. Very reasonable prices for the portions. They are very juicy and just perfectly smoked. read more

Very pleasant atmosphere, gentlemen working the kitchen was very pleasant, plenty of seating, bathrooms for men and women, large portions, fries are fresh, rib tips were delicious. The sauce has some spice if you get the hot. read more

Food was ok, portions were good. Wait went from 15 min to 30 min. Customer service was the most unprofessional I have ever seen in Joliet. F this place,run by a bunch of clowns! read more

Definitely went downhill since our last visit. Poorly packaged. Fries underneath ribs and drowned in sauce. 3 slices of white bread on top of ribs, also soaked in sauce. Both went directly into the trash due to sogginess. Ribs and potato salad flavor just ok. Not worth $30 for a full slab dinner. Will not return read more

Chicago Style BBQ - Ruined fries - Barbeque Near Me - Joliet, Illinois

Best rib tips and wings!! I really don't have more to say than that! Oh... love his coleslaw too!!

We try and hit the spot every time we're in town, best tips anywhere and best sauce however... however, as of 7/19/22 the phone message says they are "closed for the summer" with no further explanation. This guy is like an artist of barbecue, but he definitely needs a manager to keep this place going. This place could be epic with lines around the door. Such a sad spot to miss out on until we are back in this state...hoping it's not another year. read more

I would love to support black business, but my money also matters. The place was clean but the food just A flat NO! I paid 30.00 for some ribs and chicken combo. The ribs were hard and not chewable and the chicken was very salty and not good. The kids ask Me to go back to Uncle Remus in downtown Joliet to get them some chicken because it was so bad. read more

Stopped in and got the rib tip meal. Kind customer service. Waited about 15 minutes that was expected with fresh bbq! Portion was huge and food was amazing. Will be back. read more

Contrary to some of the other reviews the man running the business is a really decent, nice guy. I've been in there three times and he is just usually working hard trying to get the orders out. Best hotlink I've ever had. Wings are a solid 8.5 and the rib tips are fantastic. read more

Hello my Yelp family. So if you want some good BBQ then this is the place. Kevin owns and operates this BBQ spot, he is the cashier, food /order preparer and cook and he is doing this with two bad knees, his explains why it takes a while before you get your food. Now when you get it, all the above doesn't mean anything because the food really taste great. So don't expect great customer service, just expect really great food. read more

Good for the area , plenty of parking space,,cleanliness the food I was given was very over cooked also spent very little time in the smoke cooked in the oven would i go back NO and take the membrane off your ribs read more

I absolutely LOVE this restaurant. I thought when the fire hit the restaurant in downtown Joliet, that that was it. The owner is a fantastic guy, super hard worker. I go there almost every Saturday. I always get the large rib tips and wings. That lasts me 4-5 meals. YUMMY!!! These ribs to me are the best I've ever tasted and I love the sauce over the fries. Yes I did, YUMMY!!!! Did I say YUMMY!!! read more

Food is soooo good! I've had the chicken, rib tips, hot links with mild sauce and it's delicious! Never disappoints! read more

Chicago Style BBQ - a hot dog and french fries in a styrofoam container - Barbeque Near Me - Joliet, Illinois

I hope that as long as I live in the Joliet area, this dude's business NEVER goes away. Quite frankly, if I do chose to move back to Chicago, I will gladly make the pilgrimage back here...Just. For. His. Ribs. Although I've never met the owner/chef, I can tell you that he takes great pride in his craft and his product shows it! read more

Ribs were alright to dry for my liking look like they threw them in the microwave , sauce was really good though...

The food was ok, meat over cooked but the bbq sauce and fries were good. The manager's son was at the cash register. He was pleasant and most helpful. However, a customer changed her mind and wanted bbq sauce on fries. The manager came from out back arguing and very combative. It was unbelievable the way he ranted and fussed. He does not have to worry about me patronizing his business. There was no need for him to even come out front. Another thing, the restaurant was clean. The manager's clothes were filthy. I saw a picture of him with sons and he had on same dirty scrubs!! read more

Came to this restaurant with the taste of BBQ in my mouth unfortunately it ended on a sour note! Upon entry to the establishment I observed the cook/owner scolding his employee working the cash register over an issue that forced him to give a refund to someone. He began to punch the counter and the debit card machine along with a few harsh words I'm not going to repeat. And by the way the customer told him that he didn't want the money back! I would have left but didn't want the young lady to get in anymore trouble so I payed for my call in order and left. This place has the worst customer service ever! Not to mention i only ended up going to this place because Louisianas' had sold out of meat! It's safe to say i will not return to this place under any circumstances. I feel so bad for that employee, she was so young, I hope she doesn't return either. read more

Probably the BBQ in Joliet. Well worth the wait time. I typically get the tips and wings with mixed sauce and I have never regretted it.

Just real and great smoked BBQ, period. You smell it as soon as you pull up/walk in. Best in the area. Great rib tips and links. Can't wait to try the ribs and wings. read more

The menu selection is small but it's perfection!! I had the rib tips and wings with the hot ... It's kind of a spicy BBQ sauce not to hot but a little kick.. DELISH!! I'll definitely be back!! ** 4 stars only because I really would like to have had some kind of pulled pork or chicken option...something without bones, but that is just MY preference** read more

First time visit with a friend and we received left over BBQ wings and tips. They were not fresh at all. We had limited time to eat. The ribs and tips are tough and dry . Yes, I should have returned them and told them no thanks, but when you have limited time for lunch. Another friend said they served him a mix of fresh and dry rub tips. I won't be going back. read more

Confusing mess. Ordering was a joke. Employees are not friendly and a real turn off. The owner needs to realize it's a rib joint not a bar. The language and conversation was atrocious. Even in front of children. I don't have virgin ears but I don't want to come here to hear the unprofessional language and manners. Have respect for your customers. Long long wait. Wouldn't mind if the food was good. Ribs tough. I mean TOUGH. I thought I was going to lose a tooth. Wings were dried out but the fries edge ok read more

Foods grate OWNER is awesome a very professional and friendly I had the wings any tip dinner man I felt like I was back on the south side of Chicago again man I'll be back real soon trust big trust read more

The BbQ is REALLY good but the wait!! Why is it only 2 people working in a place that is known to back up with customers? No one to answer the phone. Prepare to wait 30-40 minutes on a good day. Sad ...we try and support our own but the obstacles are too much. read more

Poor customer service not following non of the Covid guidelines the owner nor is the worker wearing a mask doesn't sanitize in between n doesn't care how many people r n there at once read more

Picked up a ton of wings mixed with both mild and spicy and some fries and salads. The wings are damn good! I normally won't eat them without ranch and they don't have ranch so I was a bit nervous but I literally was licking my fingers to savor the taste. The fries in sauce are great! Great price and helpful service. read more

Little bit of a wait but worth it. If you want great customer service this isn't the place for you. The owner is the server and he tells it like it is but the food makes up for it. read more
