Homeboy BBQ is the standard by which I measure all other BBQ. Their meat is smoked to tender perfection. It is flavorful but not overdone. Their chicken is moist and juicy. If you are ever there when they have bologna or corned beef, you are in for a real treat. These two are occasional specials that will make you beg for more. Each of their sides are scratch made and delicious. Don't leave until you try the cheesy potatoes and the house specialty, barbecue spaghetti. Strange as it sounds, it is delightful. The portions are huge and the prices way cheaper than the local chains. I feed my family of 3 on one meal with a couple extra sides for usually around $20. read more

Food is mid I give it that but the rudeness takes it away. I'm good on being disrespected when paying for my food this happened a while back not too long ago n I hope they made some changes. The sauce is good. read more

We will frequent this place many times throughout the year when they're open. I will say this year we went there twice, maybe. This last order the ribs were so tough. After having to throw out a $30 dinner we probably won't go back. Over the years the quality has declined a bit. Still good but not as good as other years :( read more

Got BBQ combo( Ribs, Pulled Pork, Brisket and Chicken) with small Mac & Cheese and Small Coleslaw and Corn Bread that costed us little over $20. BBQ is ok but they did not drizzle enough sauce.Corn bread is pretty good though. Pros: ------- Not Expensive Decent BBQ Quick Service Free Parking Brownies and Soda Available Cons: ------- Only Take out read more

Cash only !!! Great side dishes for a bbq place. Love the potato salad and coleslaw with pineapple in it delicious. Mac' n' cheese wasn't anything special, corn bread was ok. Baked beans were delicious. Pulled pork was good kinda greasy way to much bbq sauce on it- ask for dry. Disappointed that the brisket was covered in bbq sauce/ way to much sauce. Ask for dry next time. Definitely would order the brisket again just no sauce. Ribs were good sauced just right. read more

Low rating, due to out of ribs and rib tips before 3pm, so basically right after they opened. so disappointed. will add how the chicken and brisket are in an update. Update, at 3pm we got the last of the chicken. brisket was good, chicken was dry, the problem both meats had the same sauce, so they tasted alike. slaw was pretty good, the mac n cheese was refrigerated cold. So open for an hour, sold out of all pork and chicken. Its like a hobby for this owner the way it feels, Homeboy bbq has the potential to be huge, I think their efforts have missed the mark. read more

Avoid this place at all cost, you will wait in line, they will take other peoples orders that were there after you, before you. And be out of everything you want anyway. Terrible service, never seen anything like it. read more

Disappointing--I so wanted to love this place. I thought it would be like the barbecue places in the South: a little hole-in-the-wall with fantastic, authentic food. They've got the right idea, but the food is just not that great. We've tried the chicken and ribs and just about all the sides. The ribs are extremely greasy and make my stomach unhappy. None of the sides are especially great; the only one I sort-of like is the mac and cheese, which is just pretty good. I guess the brisket is good just judging by how often they're out of it but we've never tried it, and during this pandemic we're told they haven't been able to even order it. We've gone there 5 to 6 times over the years when we're really in the mood for barbecue, but sadly, I don't think we'll be going back. read more

As advertised the meat is top shelf. The ribs are off the chart. Mostly a take out place. They get you on your way quickly. Try it if you have not already. You will be glad you did. read more

Chicken and ribs were drowning in a bbq sauce that was not good. Cornbread was excellent though.

This place is just odd. Start with the hours, it makes no sense. Then it's just awkward when you walk in, the people just stare at you like you should automatically know what you want. So after deciding on brisket sandwiches we waited. And waited. And waited. ( BBQ is precooked right?) then it came. Absolutely drowning in BBQ sauce and tough as nails! I are a few bites and then asked for a to go bag only because I didn't want to be rude. Then it comes time to pay and.... The only take cash? I understand that some places do this but when they do there are big signs posted and they don't look at you in disgust when you mistakenly try to hand them your card. Long story short, the food is mediocre at best, and the service blows. I would stay away. read more

No complaints here. I love this place. I've had the brisket, ribs and chicken. Everyone one of them has been top notch. The staff is always fast and friendly. They make you feel very welcome. The portions are definitely on the plus size. You cant go wrong with any of the sides and the cornbread is delicious. In case you haven't noticed - I LOVE this place. This is primarily a take out out place although they do have a couple picnic tables inside just for those customers who cant wait until they get home. read more

There's a reason this place is consistently voted one of the best BBQ places in Michigan (not that northerners know what bbq is anyways). The portions are large and the side are pretty good, and have become partial to the bbq spaghetti. My kids love eating there. It's not really an eat in place but the owners are always accommodating when we come. They only take cash so make sure you bring some when you go. Brownies are the size of a brick and fantastic. read more

Im alway on search for good BBQ, so since we were in town I thought I would check this place out. After driving out of my way to get there, they wanted to send me on another 3-5 miles goose chase to use an ATM at a convenience store BECAUSE THEY ONLY TAKE CASH! Smelled really good, and I would of liked to stay and eat. I think this day and age most people expect to use a debit card at a restaurant. Maybe Ill stop by again when Im in the area and have cash. read more

Overall I thought it was okay. Aptly put and the most helpful thing about this review is that food is DRENCHED in sauce. I may reorder again without sauce if possible. Otherwise having eaten at the best barbeque joints in the U.S. this is a solid 3 stars, maybe 3.5 stars. I'd definitely like to see the flavor profile without the sauce and potentially improve this review. read more

It's ok BBQ nothing super special. Better than fast food restaurant but not as good as other BBQ I have down south or in certain major cities (like Lansing or Detroit). Pulled pork is ok but not going to make you go running back. Also the sides are nothing special at all, clearly just store bought mac and cheese and other cheap stuff. They close for the winter too so would be better if they open year round. read more

We had two combo meals with ribs, pulled pork, pulled chicken and brisket. For sides we had one large mac and cheese, a small green beans, and a small bbq spaghetti. Portions were great for the price. I liked the bbq sauce and that it drenched everything. If you don't like your meat dreached in sauce, this is not the place for you. The green beans and cornbread were great. The ribs, pulled chicken and pork were good. The brisket was extremely tough. Having a cooked a few briskets, I can appreciate how hard it is to get a brisket to fall apart in your mouth. Like many others post, this is cash only. Everything was a five star except the brisket and cash only, pulling it down to a four star for me. Having said that, I will be back... read more

Perfect sauce, always fresh and soft m, best barbecue around these parts. Friendly staff

Couldn't disagree more with the other reviewer. The portion sizes are fantastic. The food is delectable, it's a BBQ joint, so sauce should be expected. Their sauce offers a great flavor. I'm not a fan of many sauces, but this one wins me over. The only thing keeping them from 5 stars is their schedule (Wed-Sun) and the fact that it's Cash Only. read more

I heard about this place from a east side pub . I drove there on Thursday and got two nightmares. Great flavor but very low quality of meat. Thought I would give them another chance so I went there Saturday and spent sixty dollars and I have never had to use a knives to cut my pulled pork. But still a very good flavor. I just wish they would use a better grade of meat. And I will be back. . read more

Amazing BBQ. Ribs are sooo good and sides are pretty good as well. Bring cash and make sure you check hours first as they aren't open certain days. Great prices. read more

So yummy! Cash only place. Great food for a great price. We got the chicken dinner for 2 with 2 large sides and 2 cornbread and 2 brownies for 15 bucks. Probably could have been enough for 3. Chicken was awesome. The BBQ spaghetti was my favorite slightly sweet with good heat. The coleslaw was flavorful but not too sweet. The cornbread was also soft, could be a little more moist but that's just personal choice and the brownies. Lawdy lawdy. So flipping delicious chocolatey and soft. Can't wait to go back. read more

We ordered BBQ for the family here, first we had to wait almost 45 min, which the only good thing about that was it gave me time to run to the closest bank to get cash, because they didn't take charge. Then we get home, and our chicken is raw! Also we didn't get all the sides we ordered, they substituted some out, because they ran out of what we ordered. The rest of the BBQ is just covered in sauce. After living in Kansas City I learned a great saying concerning BBQ, "a good sauce will hide BAD BBQ" serve it up with no sauce and if it still tastes great, you have gotten a great BBQ! I will NEVER come back to this place, and I tell everyone I know to avoid it like the plague! read more

great bbq and the sides are phenomenal! Stuck out in the middle of nowhere but definitely a hidden gem! Come early since they will start to run out of food as the day goes on! ALso have limited days they are open! Has a cooler inside w pop and chips and beer and such so it's a one stop shop! read more

THIS is BBQ. Save the slaving, if it's Wed - Sat just go. The food is phenomenal and they'll leave the sauce off if you want. Chicken, pork, brisket, pulled, ribs, burnt ends plus sides that you won't find anywhere else. And Towne Club pop! All cash, call ahead or enjoy the smells while you wait. read more

In my opinion,Homeboys is gross. Anything you order is covered in bbq sauce. I am the only person I know who dislikes Homeboys,and my 2 friends always say I like it,and I want them to stop. read more

I'm sad to report that Homeboy BBQ restaurant is no more. I drove by there and there's a sign thanking everyone for their patronage and saying that they still offer catering services. But the restaurant itself is closed. This sucks as it was one of the best barbecue joints in the county read more

This place is a funky owned family place. They do to go orders mainly. We stoped in on our way to a camp ground, we ordered pulled pork sandwiches. They come with a side, I got corn bread that was great, Dad got mac and cheese very good nice and hot! Mom got coleslaw and did not like it much as it had pineapple in it. Each order comes with two buns and plenary of meat. The BBQ had great flavor but it was cold when we got it and they made our to go plates right in front of us! We could have had two orders instead of three because of the amount of food! Great price and if you heat it up at home I imagine it's pretty good. read more

This is by far the best barbeque you can get anywhere in genesee county and I've had a lot of barbeque. Yes there are some things like not taking credit but so do other places. I've never had a bad item here. The sides are all homemade and so is the bbq not something pre-made like other places. I would recommend to anyone I know and the ones I already have love it. read more

You can eat here, but is mostly a takeout place. The food is sometimes good, sometimes not so good. Never really bad, but if you expect consistent good bbq this place is a gamble. Sometimes the ribs are rubbery, the sauce is ok but nothing worth getting excited about. I guess the fact that they are one of only a couple bbq places around here gives them an edge, but I didnt think their food was all that great. Some of the stuff is really good, love their mac-n-cheese, but the meat is weak and thats what I am eating there for.... Not saying I wont give them another shot, but will probably opt for Famous Dave's (my only other choice in the area) next time. read more

By far the best BBQ anywhere near Flint. It's in the middle of nowhere but worth the drive any day. The food is excellent and the price can't be beat in my opinion. A true diamond in the ruff and if you like BBQ I know you'll like this place. This is the type of BBQ you get at a competition BBQ read more

This place has AMAZING food! They kind of have funky hours but when I do eat there, my family ends up getting the whole spread because it all tastes soo good... Chicken and ribs. They also have huge and delicious pieces of cornbread and a variety of stellar sides. Sometimes they run out of them before we get them! But when we are lucky enough to get all our first choice sides... So good! read more

This place is amazing, I travel all over the USA for work & can honestly say this is THE BEST! Try it for yourself & you'll see! read more

Homeboy Barbeque - Box FULL of Rib Tips... Amazing sauce! - Barbeque Near Me - Flushing, Michigan

Wonderful barbecue!!! Check their Facebook page for their menu and hours, because I believe they are only open Thursday- Saturday. I love the barbecue chicken, but they can run out if it early, so it's best to call your order in to make sure they have what it is that you want. Unique side items, and their cornbread is awesome! read more

Absolute awesome BBQ place! The only way I could see it getting better would be if they had a dining room. Great corn bread, desserts, brisket, pork, chicken, and sides. Definitely get more than you pay for here. Friendly staff, niche soda selection that you don't run across most other places. By far stands out from the chain BBQ places and other local BBQ places in the area. Wish it was touch closer to home! read more

Best BBQ in Michigan - HANDS DOWN!! They only accept CASH and they're CARRYOUT only due to the fact they have no public bathroom. I've been a regular customer there for many yrs and have never had anything but awesome food. When comes to sides i recommend the slaw, bama taters, and the BBQ spaghetti. The cornbread and brownies are top notch also. Their brisket placed 2nd in a national competition in Kansas City back in 2012. read more

Delicious food, friendly staff. We got the beisket and rib combo for 2 and had food to spare with 2 adults and a 3yr old. We will be back

An excellent barbeque joint. Very small. You could eat in, however, most people take the food home. Their food is excellent -- good portions, low price. You can ask for your meat with or without sauce, so it works for all types. They make an excellent brisket and an their potato salad is awesome. read more

I totally disagree with the other poster. Alot of smokey flavor and lots of food for the $$. The best BBQ in the area.
