HIDDEN GEM Wow! the…read moresmell from the moment you walk in the door speaks for itself. We visited this town today and we're driving around looking for somewhere to eat for 20 minutes and we stumbled upon this place. What a hidden gem! Cool decor and lots of conversation pieces. The service was great, friendly and the options of different meats/dishes was great! They had a lot of cool beers to try and some cute desserts too. Will definitely be coming back, and pointing bbq lovers to this cool spot!

Maybe people around there don't know what good BBQ is?…read more Food - brisket was dry. The sides must have been scraped from the sides or bottom, they were also dry and subpar (or below). Service - our gal was ok (4/10). And if it's not your servers table, they won't even look at you. And yes, I tried when I needed a box for my dry leftovers (for my dog) They don't have ranch, don't ask, the answer was a very aggressive "no!" Ambiance - meh, the service isn't welcoming so there's that. No welcome and no "thanks for coming". Moral of this review - if it were the last place to eat on earth, I might eat there but a dandelion salad with no ranch would be better.

One was the sweet potato fries, which were super delicious and the other was their homemade applesauce, which was absolutely amazing. They had lots of sauces on the table to choose from. I really liked the classic barbecue and the Berry one. Everything tasted good. Our waitress was amazing and helped us pick up breakfast spot for the next morning. She was also just a really great waitress and super attentive. I would definitely recommend coming here.

Bob's has GREAT service…read more The sauces are great. The ambience is conducive to socializing with members of your party. The ribeye sandwiches, which two of us had were great. The brisket was very basic. It lacked a good smoke flavor and was dry.

The sandwich portions are generous and come with a small side portion and sliced pickles. The pulled pork comes without sauce and when we went, they only had spicy and blackberry sauce. As far as flavor, we agreed the pork was kinda dry but okay. I had the blackberry sauce, which I found runny and not so flavorful. My boyfriend had the spicy and said it was good, but the kick lingered in his mouth. My coleslaw was weak too. Overall, the location is perfect for this kind of meal. It's a reasonable price for what you get - sandwich, side, and drink. Probably great for local lunches, but we wouldn't go out of our way.

Chubbs BBQ is a fairly new food truck in the Marion area and overall I must say I'm impressed…read more They are quick, well priced and consistent. The meat has a great smokey flavor and is very tender. The baked beans have quickly become a favorite and the coleslaw is a close second. They offer huge sandwiches which include 6 oz. meat, one side and a drink for $7.50 or larger platters for around $11. They never keep me waiting long and they have many BBQ sauces to choose from including some interesting ones such as cherry habanero and blackberry. They are usually located around the corner of 7th Ave. and 44th St. in Marion behind Arnold's motor supply. So if you find yourself in the area around lunchtime it's definitely worth the stop!

Jimmy Jack's is phenomenal on every level. Their food is always incredible, but the only thing that…read moresurpasses it, is their outstanding customer service. I'm a DoorDasher, and during a rush I accidentally gave my own personal meal (that I had purchased for my husband as a surprise) to a college student's order. Instead of taking it back, I went back to Jimmy Jack's to reorder and pay for a new one. Nothing, and I mean nothing, could have prepared me for what happened next. When I explained what happened, Ariel at the front didn't hesitate for a second. She remade my meal at no charge. I was shocked. In a world where good customer service is getting harder to find, what Ariel and the Jimmy Jack's team showed me was true kindness, professionalism, and generosity. This place doesn't just serve great food--they serve with heart. I will always support Jimmy Jack's. Thank you for going above and beyond

Nope! The fact that just after eating this, my stomach doesn't feel right. Let's me know that food…read morepoisoning is on its way. Customer service none existed. The food is not good.I got a beef brisket with no bun, with very little brisket.So that makes me think that the actual sandwich is very lackluster, based on the amount of meat for the price felt like a rip off. I got the regular brisket and not the fatty, but you would have thought they gave me the fatty one. Because half of the brisket was unedible. The brisket was very greasy And there was absolutely no smoky flavor to it. Only thing that help it was the chicago Fire BBQ sauce, which was okay. The honey cornbread was raw. It was not cooked all the way it was like biting it into a undone cake, had to immediately spit it out. The baked beans were okay at best.Tasted something like straight out of a can nothing special. Being from Kansas City, I know my BBQ, and this aint it? Now I gotta go home and take some tums.

Cole slaw is just one of those foods that you never know if it's going to be good, lol. I did ask when I ordered it if it was mayonnaise-based or vinegar based, and he told me they use both! I had the pulled pork, and I thought it was very good and a generous portion, hubs had the brisket, which he said it was very good but a different consistency than what he is used to at a barbecue joint. I was definitely not a fan of the coleslaw as I found it a too salty for my taste so hubs had that one to himself. The baked beans were very good and I liked the addition of orange and yellow peppers. There are four different kinds of sauces to choose from, and they were tasty. $26 for the two meat to side plate, along with two iced teas. Friendly service.

All the other dishes: pulled pork, pulled chicken, green beans, mashed potatoes, coleslaw, Mac n cheese, and corn bread were a hit. The interior is also neat and definitely pays tribute to a classic southern BBQ joint with all the lights and signs you could imagine. It's not quite at the top of BBQ places that I've tried but falls somewhere right in the middle. Juicer brisket, fattier burnt ends Will brine it to the next level!

I noticed today that I have not reviewed Willie Ray's. That's pretty crazy, because I eat there A…read moreLOT. Like, I own multiple Willie Ray's t-shirts. How have I never reviewed them? Well, I guess my 500th Yelp review is as good a time as any. I don't eat potato salad, but I have to start with the potato salad because my wife loves Willie Ray's potato salad so much that I actually order it as my side just to give to her. So, I guess it's pretty good. I'm pretty sure I've had every entree at Willie Ray's. I think their best entree might actually be their barbecue chicken, but I also love their ribs. A lot of places make ribs that I think are too fatty. My guess is the ribs are the same before they go in the smoker, and the ones I consider too fatty just haven't fully rendered. Regardless, the ribs at Willie Ray's never seem too fatty, or too greasy. They're always cooked just right, and have a great flavor. The entree I get the most is probably the pulled pork. It's also very good. It's not as good as the ribs, but I usually go to Willie Ray's for lunch, and something about ribs just makes me sleepy. Their brisket is awesome, too. They seem to run out of that pretty quickly, though. If you ever go there and they have a side called chicken ro-mac, definitely try it. They don't seem to have it often. So, you don't want to pass up an opportunity to try it. Based on the name, and the flavor, I'm assuming it has Rotel tomatoes in it. Other than that, it's mac and cheese with pulled chicken. I highly recommend it. Anyway, I've never had a bad meal there, and I've had a lot of meals there.
