I then asked what they recommend and I was told the brisket. So that's what I got and oh my was it good. The meat was flavorful, juicy and just the right amount.my sandwich was served on a rotella roll and I got chips as my side. My husband got the brisket and sausage sandwich with bean and he raved about them. They had 3 bbq sauces: sweet, bourbon and spicy. I had tried all of them, I just preferred the spicy. The owner did bring me 2 burnt ends to try.. and guess what? They were so good, I will be watching and go back on the day they are posted as their special. GREAT JOB Smokin Barrel, you have a new fan and I have my new favorite BBQ restaurant in the Omaha area.

The soup of the day, Chicken in Wild Rice, was amazing. Loved the ham and cheese panini. All the desserts are homemade on site. The pie crust on the coconut cream was flaky. I've had the best coconut cream pie in America (Dover KS Somerset Cafe) and this is a very close competitor. Everything was served on pretty Polish pottery. So special. Great atmosphere in this historical building with roomy tables. This will definitely be our plan for lunch next roadtrip to Lincoln. BTW - The store next door has great items to look over while waiting on your meal.

None of the cold food was on ice. Had to stand in line for buffet for almost half an hour twice. Got here at 11am, almost 12:30 and the line for the buffet reaches out the door. They only have one side of the table to serve and all the food was almost room temp. They were serving prime rib and would give you a 2"x3" piece. For the price I had to pay and the lack of quality of food, I was not impressed. They did fairly well filling the trays, but left the mess around it. Plus my husband had to ask for all drink refills.

Some stand outs to me were the rolls. Move over Texas Roadhouse, these are the best rolls I've ever had. And that was just the first bites. We had corn about 6 different ways, and as a ceratifed corn head, this was terrific. Each dish was so thoughtfully curated and executed. I can see why this is such an occasion place, but even breakfast the next day was great. The cinnamon rolls are out of this world. The views of the hazelnut fields and all the greenery really feels otherwordly. Truly one of my favorite dining experiences as of late.

I'm not a mustard guy so it's the one I didn't try. I will DEFINITELY be back to try out more of the menu.

I've had the opportunity to try Porky Butts a couple of different ways. My family and I decided to…read moredo dinner one night so we all met up at Porky Butts. Their menu is vast and full of variety and I felt myself feeling nervous attempting to decide. Luckily, my sister and brother in law had the idea of ordering several items on one of their platters. I thought this was the perfect way to feed 6 people. I believe we got a few other things along with it, like the potato salad, an order of just burnt ends and an extra order of corn bread. There was something for everyone! We got to try their BBQ chicken and turkey as well as some pulled pork and ribs. I was happily impressed. I also loved how clean the restaurant and bathrooms were. There was ample staff around to bring out the meals, pick up some plates that were empty, and refill waters. Just recently, my workplace catered Porky Butts BBQ for our meal for inventory. They brought all the food, and napkin dispenser, utensils, and plates along with enough staff to set up and serve for 4 hours. The staff were genuinely kind, polite, and professional. Greeting each employee as they came into the breakroom and were excited to serve us. It was such a delight. The food was just as delicious as when I tried it in the restaurant. We got to choose from beans, corn bread, pulled pork, sliced BBQ chicken, and mac and cheese. They had buns available if you wanted to eat the pork or chicken as a sandwich and several different BBQ sauces to add on if you chose. They also had butter and honey packets for the bread. Just like my visit at the restaurant I was impressed and so full by the time I finished my meal. Porky Butts is a proven winner!! I'd definitely visit their restaurant again soon and if I need anything catered, I'll absolutely think about Porky Butts!

I was salivating over pictures of ribs online recently, and went in search of something delicious…read morein Omaha as I have yet to be able to cook bbq properly myself. I headed to Porky Butts after reading rave reviews. I bought the Family Platter, said to feed 2-3. I can see that. It seems like a lot of food. A half-rack of ribs is plenty for a small family to try when it comes with 1/3 lb. each of two more meats. My go-to is pulled pork, and just to be different, I made this dinner a pork-a-pallooza by choosing smoked ham as the second meat. The ribs are really good -- the meat comes off the bone easily and has great flavor. The pulled pork was disappointing, though. It seemed really wet, and not from sauce. Like overcooked, too much steam, maybe? Who know. But the ham! OMG, the surprise entry in this extravaganza was soooo delicious! Not too smoky, not overly salty, tender and, dare I say, worthy of being a main selection when I come back! Two large containers of sides were both great. The beans were saucy, smoky, and filled with threads of, I dont know, brisket? The mac and cheese was flavorful and very creamy. I didnt want to wait for dinner after my first taste test! Cornbread is moist and delicious and that's before any butter or honey. Folks behind the counter were quick and friendly (it was a to-go order). And even at 2 in the afternoon tables were populated and carryout was hopping. As for carryout, I wonder why the sauce containers are so tiny. Be loud -- be proud, and use less plastic with a single container that hold three of those tiny ones. And that pulled pork, it made a good sandwich, but it wasnt A+ I will be back though. The variety of sides looks amazing and the sandwiches were very enticing!

My sausage was barely warm but tasted ok, unfortunately I don't care for cold food. The young gentleman behind the counter was nice and polite, but when he asked the gentleman in the kitchen a question, he was a disgusted look for even asking. We should have been concerned with the fact that the person he asked had a rather long beard with no hair net on it leaning over the food. All in all, it was a pretty terrible experience, and we will not be returning.
