    The smoked Turkey platter $16.99!
    Pamela M.

    Worst barbecue we have ever had Overpriced very small portions and food was not hot I would not recommend this location, I would go next door to Denny's instead

    Brisket meal, cabbage slaw, Mac cheese, pulled pork sandwich and 2 drinks for $40 bucks
    Houser S.

    I don't even know what to say! How is it possible to screw up bbq? Obviously we were on the road, so so hungry and spotted this from the freeway, so we stopped. It looked really decent outside and also inside, it certainly has a Texas feel to it. Usually new places I order whats popular so ordered the brisket with Mac and cheese and cabbage slaw. The only thing good was the slaw. The brisket was like beef jerky and over salted and over peppered not sure how it's popular unless they figured we are just travelers and on our way never to come back and they need to get rid of food! The Mac and cheese literally tastes like noodles with velveeta mixed together. I was expecting a good creamy cheesy recipe but no. Lastly we ordered the pulled pork sandwich, it was pretty decent, but pricey! Meals and drinks were just under $40 bucks, I was shocked. Never again and I would not recommend this place ever! We could have had better and less expensive at Denny's next door.

    Part of the jiggle mountain extracted from the dissection.

    Not very good for the price. We both got a brisket sandwich and they were full of fatty pieces. I literally had to dissect my sandwich in order to eat it. By the end of the operation I had a fatty mountain of brisket jiggle. Seemed overpriced for a bun, a couple slices of onion and a few pieces of meat that were mostly fat. In fact one of the pieces on my sandwich was only fat. Like how did the lady who made the sandwich think that I'd enjoy a big chunk of seasoned fat? FYI...I wouldn't. Moral of the story, we won't be back.

    READ BEFORE MAKING A MISTAKE!!! I wish I could give this less than one star, undeserving of anything. Coming in the two girls were awful, didn't acknowledge us and had their own personal conversation using inappropriate language as we were ordering. The meat was absolutely COLD and sooo over seasoned. Asking for the employee to warm the food to be a decent temperature was difficult. She had a difficult time understanding what I was politely asking for. I was also left without a roll which the plate came with and they informed us they were all out, yet they were eating multiple in the back of the counter !! HAD to come to Carl's jr. across to the street to not be hungry. The bad attitude and cold, overly seasoned meat was enough to walk out without eating. Spare your money and time and stop somewhere else.

    Very clean! Warm country themed dining area.

    When I came in, I was greeted with a very nice "welcome in" from a very sweet lady Molly, who was very patient. Because I'm not so well at ordering things right the first time she was polite and helped me to figure out what I wanted. wanted being the first time Customer I was very happy and pleased with my customer service And great hospitality! Hopefully you'll have the same experience. We'll be stopping in again.

    Bad Pork from Dickeys BBQ in Patterson, CA
    Mark C.

    Excited to find Dickeys BBQ at a Truck Stop on the I-5 at Howard Road exit just north of Patterson, but that should have been my first RED flag. The Dickeys was hard to find and is literally in the back of the Joe's Travel Plaza with no directional signs (probably to protect the public). Then the staff at the counter standing around idly talking was the next red flag. The distinct smell of a faulty septic was the third strike. However, the fact that we did not walk out is our fault, but we were hungry, and wanted to get back on I-5 for a LONG trip. Next, There was no fried food available without further explanation or God forbid an "I am sorry." So we got our pulled pork sandwiches and jumped onto the highway in ignorant bliss. Or so we thought. We took one bite and the smell and taste made us immediately repell from the pungent smell and spit out the food, wrap up the spoiled pork and throw them out. We not only wasted $20 and we still need to find food to eat, which is not easy on the I-5, but we also have upset stomachs! DO NOT GO HERE!!! They don't deserve 1 star, but that is the lowest Yelp allows.

    Dickies BBQ Pit of Dallas is substandard when it comes to the art of BBQ. Ordered a half rack of pork ribs at $14.95 which was pricey for what we got. The meat had a pleasant lightly smoked taste, but parts of it were so over cooked, the meat was dry & hard like jerky. The rub was vastly more harsh salt than fine herbs & spices so the meat came out way too salty. Truly amateurish attempt which resulted in faux bbq. Iced tea was so diluted that there was hardly any fragrance of brewed black tea, Also local water was probably used so it had a slight off tasting minerality so I switched beverages. The computer automated beverage machine also failed in recreating the exact flavour of classic Coke. It was too much carbonated soda water probably using the same local off tasting water and not enough of the classic Coke syrup. Ladies here were not particularly welcoming, but the young man & the gentleman who had to reboot the malfuntioning automated beverage dispenser were friendly & sociable. Unfortunately not worth the time off the road on the way to San Francisco to eat at Dickies. 2- Yelp stars.

    We stopped by Hot City BBQ our way to Yosemite and are so thrilled that we did. Arriving shortly…read moreafter they opened, we quickly saw the dining room fill up - and after our first bites, it's not hard to see why their food is outstanding. My Roadhouse Salad was enormous and topped with generous, perfectly cooked slices of tri-tip, which balanced beautifully with the tart apples, blue cheese, and apple vinaigrette. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his pulled pork sandwich as well. The restaurant itself is also so clean & well decorated. We will definitely be return customers!

    Good BBQ, but a few things to know before you go…read more I found this barbecue spot on Google and also checked it out on Yelp. It had some good reviews, and since I'm a big reviewer myself, that's what ultimately convinced me to stop in and give it a try. First impression: The parking lot is very small with extremely limited parking. If there are already a couple of cars there, you'll probably have to park along the street in the surrounding residential neighborhood. The good thing is that the location is very easy to get to--it's right off Highway 152 (Pacheco) and sits right on the corner. They have a large outdoor barbecue/grill area where you can see they're cooking the food, plus a bench outside. When we arrived around 3:30-4:00 PM, there were only a couple of customers leaving, so the restaurant was pretty quiet. Inside, there's a large chalkboard menu that's easy to see and read. Since it was my first time, it took me a few minutes to figure out exactly what I wanted. I ordered the small rib plate with cornbread instead of the garlic bread because I LOVE cornbread. The cornbread was really good! The ribs were also good. I personally like my BBQ nice and saucy, so I added some extra barbecue sauce, which made them even better. The macaroni was just okay, but the baked beans were really, really good. We also tried the pulled chicken sandwich. Unfortunately, that was probably my least favorite item. The chicken was pretty plain, didn't have much flavor, and was somewhat dry. It also didn't really give me that smoky/barbecue flavor I was expecting. One thing to know is that they don't have a fountain drink machine. You'll need to grab a canned or bottled drink from the refrigerator, including Mexican Coke. The food came out very quickly. We had barely sat down after ordering when our food was already being brought out on trays. Overall, I thought the food was fairly decent, although I felt it was a little overpriced for what you get. The ribs, cornbread, and baked beans were the standouts for me, while the pulled chicken could definitely use more flavor and moisture. Would I come back? Possibly. I wouldn't say this was a bad experience at all, and there were definitely some things I enjoyed. I may make another stop in the future.

We were starving, and my husband noticed the sign as we passed by--so we turned around to check it out. And I'm so glad we did! We ordered #10 -- Any 2 Meats + 2 Sides for $32.90, which was actually more than enough for the two of us. For the meats, we chose the beef brisket and ribs, with potato salad and macaroni salad for the sides. Everything was delicious! The meats were perfectly seasoned and so tender. The ribs were truly fall-off-the-bone tender. The order also came with a piece of cornbread, and oh my goodness--it was SO good! I should've ordered an extra one for just $2. Definitely one of those things you don't appreciate enough until it's gone! I especially liked the BBQ sauce--it has a little kick of spice, which paired really well with the sides. The potato and macaroni salads were slightly sweeter than what I've had at other BBQ places, and I really enjoyed that combination. The lady at the counter was also very nice and welcoming. The restaurant was clean and comfortable, even though it's located along a busy street. A great little BBQ find that we wouldn't have discovered if we hadn't been hungry and noticed that sign! Definitely worth the U-turn! Would I come back? Absolutely! And next time, I'm getting that extra cornbread!

    Absolutely incredible barbecue!…read more We ordered the ribs, potato salad, cornbread, sweet potato pie, and baked beans. Everything was amazing.

Everything tasted homemade, flavorful, and made with care. Catherine, the owner's daughter, was working while we were there, and she was so friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. She made the experience even better and was happy to answer our questions. I highly recommend Daddy's House of Ribs if you're in the Lockeford area.

    If you want real BBQ, you'll definitely need to try "Stay Smokin' BBQ" based out of Mountain House,…read moreCA. Stay Smokin BBQ was catering for an event at my children's school about a month or so ago. For those who have children, you know all too well how picky kids can be when it comes to food and my boys are no different. I had ordered a combo meal for my two boys and I to share. I wasn't sure if one combo meal was going to be enough for all three of us, however, when I received our food I realized the portion sizes were large. We ordered brisket, pulled pork, tri tip, baked beans and macaroni and cheese. If you're a mac and cheese lover like me, you definitely have to try their homemade macaroni and cheese. It was creamy, cheesy, and the noodles were cooked to perfection. When it came to the brisket, pulled pork, and tri tip, I have to say it is probably the best BBQ I have ever tasted. Each bite was juicy, full of flavor, and tender. They provided homemade BBQ sauce, but the meat is so flavorful that you don't have to add anything to it. I feel like I hit the jackpot with Stay Smokin' BBQ! In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I reached out to Stay Smokin' BBQ to help provide a nice Thanksgiving meal. I didn't get any names which I highly regret now, however, they took care of us on Thanksgiving. They generously provided brisket, pulled pork, macaroni and cheese, and a sweet potato pie to my children and I. They gave me the day and time to pick the order up and when I arrived, they handed me hot and fresh BBQ that just came off the smoker. I think this Thanksgiving meal spoiled my four children because they asked if we can stop making turkey and just get the BBQ. Thank you so much Stay Smokin' BBQ.

I can taste the tenderness. So I enjoyed that. They took time smoking it. But the large sandwich is impossible to hold. Cut it into thirds please. The biggest downside for me was. The meat has absolutely no rub. It needs black pepper, peppercorn or something. It needs spice. The bbq sauce didn't compliment it well. Maybe slather in sauce and let it cook for a nice glaze. Pouring sauce onto the rib only made it taste like sauce and you lose all the smoked flavor.
