    Backyard BBQ - Shoulder Plate with Fries and slaw

    Thanksgiving vibes don't get better than pulling into tiny Tompkinsville, Kentucky and stepping…read morestraight into heaven at Backyard BBQ. Y'all, I'm calling it right now: this is the best barbecue in the entire United States. That smoked pork shoulder plate--tender, juicy meat, kissed with smoke for hours, edged with perfect bark, and paired with their peppery vinegar dip--had me closing my eyes with every bite like I was cheating on every other BBQ joint I've ever loved. The mayo slaw was creamy crack abd the baked beans tasted like they'd been simmering since last Thanksgiving. If you ever find yourself within 100 miles of Tompkinsville, you owe your soul a detour. Backyard BBQ isn't just a meal, it's a religious experience with a side of fries. 11/10, no notes, already planning the next pilgrimage.

    We found this spot on the way to vacation and we're so glad we stopped. It has an outside area and…read morea big space inside for seating. You enter and go to the counter to place your order. The menu is extensive with a ton of meat options as well as delicious sides. My husband got the chicken breast plate which comes with two sides and is plenty of food. The sauce is on top and not a thick sauce but super flavorful. I had several sides which were amazing! I went back for more green beans and baked beans as those were my favorites. The portions are large and prices are very reasonable. It is a very welcoming and chill spot with an amazing smell from the smoking meats. Definitely worth a detour to try this spot! We will stop here again if even close, and might just plan a trip down to get some of their BBQ!

    I'm sorry but we stopped in Cave City for the night and this BBQ joint was right across the street…read morefrom our hotel. We walked over and got seated right away. It smelled great and the food we seen delivered to other tables also looked great. We got a sample platter with ribs and brisket. The ribs were over cooked and chewy and the brisket was a lot of fat. The sides were just ok. Maybe it was just an off day for them because I see a lot of great reviews. We stopped in later in the evening so that may be the reason the meats were off. Again, not thrilled with our meal here, but may give them another chance earlier in the day.

    First, I love a great BBQ joint that also offers tasty sides, which is hard to come by back home in…read moreNKy. My son and I both wanted to try the brisket so he got the platter and I chose the sandwich. I was told they make most of the sides that aren't fried options such as tater tots, which I was happy about. They had the classic barbecue sauce on the table as well as a spicy option. Both were equally delicious. My sandwich came on Texas toast, which is a fave. The portions were a great value as they do not skimp! The fried potatoes are made in house and they were delicious. Even though they don't make the onion rings in house they were also quite good. My one disappointment was, they don't make the majority of their desserts. And the menu states that their daughter-in-law Kayle makes different desserts daily and they didn't have that. They were actually out of several desserts, which was disappointing. Since the only ones they had were not ones made in house I chose to not get one. Since we live 3 1/2 hours away I guess I'll have to give it another shot for the dessert option next time around. Overall, the place was terrific and the folks were friendly. They have a salad bar in the middle of the floor, which is a nice touch. They have a very laid-back atmosphere and it is definitely family friendly. And you definitely get good size portions for the money.
