Ok, I'll preface this with I KNOW my 'que…read more.. I'm a former partner in 3 Guys Smokin', Tulsa original "poster children" for barbecue competitions here. We started in 1987 and founded the Art of BBQ, the former fundraiser for Tulsa's Arts and Humanities Council, as well as the Bixby Blues 'n BBQ competition. Over the years we won MULTITUDES of awards, with our biggest claim that our baked beans took second in the world at the KC Royal. We manufactured and marketed three award-winning sauces and a dry rub. Case made?? Good, keep going please! I accidentally found Luke's a few years back and now I'll drive to Coweta from Tulsa for lunch as it's THAT GOOD!! It's honestly some of the best BBQ I've ever eaten. I went last week for lunch and got my usual, sliced brisket and pulled pork. Both were incredible, but the pork was AMAZING, something that usually doesn't impress me. I can get a butt nice and juicy, but NOTHING like Luke's!!! Not sure if they brine, inject, or what they do?? The meat is soaked with delicious juices and you can tell that it's inside, not just added if that makes sense. The brisket came off the point, which is not what I typically prefer, but it too was incredible. Go early, burnt ends seem to sell out first. Great portions, I always bring home leftovers. I'll TRY not to dive in to my plate and get some pics next time; can't promise tho...

Finally made it here. I'm from TX, so I judge every BBQ place by their brisket. Lukes is probably…read morethe best I've had in OK (places in Wellston and Pawhuska are pretty close, too). It had a good bark, smoke ring, was tender and had great flavor. The portion size was healthy, too. The okra was average, but the portion size was plentiful. The beans were very good, but sweeter than I prefer. My wife had the beef ribs which were the best outside Kansas City I've tasted. She did not care for the mac and cheese but liked the smoke flavor the the white cheese they used. Order at the counter and they bring the food to you. It is a tiny mom and pop place so be there by 10:30 to avoid a line that steadily grows until opening. Lukes reminds me of some of the best small, local BBQ joints you find all over Texas. I hope to get back here when I'm in the Tulsa area.

The ambiance was cute and the restaurant was clean. Our service was good…read more I asked if the potato salad was homemade and was told the buy the base and add pickles and onion. It was not good. Unfortunately it was premade Sysco or Ben E Keith style potato salad. I also ordered the baked beans and they had no flavor and were dry. Dry? How are baked beans dry. The meat I chose was the sliced brisket. It had a great pink smoke ring yet, no flavor. It was also dry. The other meal at the table , bologna sandwich with slaw and okra. It was fine but, nothing special. The next meal was pre prepared Mac and cheese (inedible) chicken breast and fries. Fries are fries... the chicken breast was moist but, offered no seasoning nor smokie flavor. We haven't been here in a couple years and we were sad to see the food was no longer worth coming to BA. I wish more restaurants would make more of their dishes in house. It's frustrating to pay so much for pre made food. Gave 2 stars because at the end of the day it was clean, and the service was nice.

The ribs were fine with a mild smoky flavor, sides were decent, overall a simple average meal…read more Service was polite and quick, nothing stood out but nothing was wrong.

There was already a line but the free rib sample certainly made the wait more delicious. We shared a brisket sandwich, full rack of ribs, two sausages, two coleslaws and an order of mac and cheese. It was all so so so good! The woman at the register was kind and helpful. And then Tyson delivered our food to our outside table over looking the river, and he made sure we were enjoying ourselves and brought us some samples of bologna and "the fatty". Tim and yum. He is the absolute BEST. Don't forget to ask for the mustard-style bbq sauce. I liked it mixed with the regular one. Please come open a restaurant in SoCal!!! We don't have ANYthing like this at home. Thanks for a wonderful experience!!!!

Wait is never too long we usually set in bar area as they have 8 large screen to keep your interest while you wait . They offer wide selection of sides, I usually get their fried okra and baked beans but the cold slaw and potato salad are excellent as well. Dinner comes with side of hush puppies and the tartare sauce and red shrimp sauce are spiced perfectly. They have a full service bar and wide draft selection.

If you associate the blues with Bar B Que then Elmer's BBQ is the place you ought to visit…read more The soundtrack of this hole in the wall place is pure Memphis blues. The decor is all about BBQ and blues. This is definitely no corporate contrived eatery. There is a genuine feel of the bluesy barbecue world. We ordered the Nelson's plate for 2. We substituted the bologna and hot link for chicken and pulled pork. The barbecue is the real thing. The beans have a Smokey sweet flavor that is perhaps the best bbq beans in Oklahoma if not the country. The pulled pork was also tender and sweet, expertly cooked. The brisket was tender and easy to chew. The ribs were perhaps the second weakest part of the meal. That said I have eaten worse in most places in Tulsa. They were tender but in my opinion could have been better. The chicken was the weakest part of the meal. It was a bit dry but tolerable. The potato salad was creamy soft with just a slight hint of vinegar you expect to taste in potato salad in a perfect balance of flavors and textures. We ordered the Mac and cheese was very cheesy and included a cheese pull with a slight funk in the aftertaste that makes it very different dish from the standard offering at other places. While I'm not a sauce user I tasted the sweet and the hot sauces. The sweet was very sweet and the hot definitely hit with a sting I normally avoid but I'm sure would be welcome to the well initiated. I definitely recommend Elmer's barbecue for those pining for blues and barbecue
