Craving BBQ, Yelp led me here. Rocky's BBQ deserves their five-star rating. Inside a small no frills space, Rocky's BBQ's food is top notch. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich with a side of baked beans per the worker's recommendation. The beans are among the best I've had in the U.S. They are sweet, but balanced and so unique with onions in the sauce. The sandwich was excellent- juicy meat, great sauce, slaw, and pickles. read more

Amazing customer service! We randomly stopped in with a large party after visiting Turkey Hill Experience. For such a small establishment they were very accommodating. They food was fast and fresh. Our entire party enjoyed the food. read more

Ridiculous - how are you sold out of EVERYTHING at 3:30PM ON a Friday? And you close at 6:30??? Wasted drive. Awful. No brisket, sausages, burn ends, ribs. Do better. read more

Arrived an hour before closing and on Father's Day - so... the pickings were slim, even so; everyone was nice and I got the vibe, that many who come here, are known and thought of as family. Yes, it's a family, casual kinda vibe, place. Their smoked sausage sandwich, delicious. Though it was a massive, smoky, mouthful, with a perfectly crisp exterier, an additional offering of sauerkraut and spicy mustard, would have ramped up my tastebuds, even more so. Loved the crunch, sweetened vinegary bite of Rocky's coleslaw. The only item that took me off guard, was the mac & cheese. A whiff and a taste, but still uncertain until I inquired; yes, there's garlic in this mac & cheese and it was a bit, overwhelming for me. read more

Recommended by a client. We got pulled pork a party. It was the greatest hit. People LOVED it! Everyone kept asking where it was from! Gained a loyal customer for future needs. read more

delicious!! everything was delicious - was recommended by two different people and well worth it

Everything was delicious except the rocks beans! They were just pork n beans with ground beef. Should have had a more open campfire taste I think. read more

Rocky's BBQ - Slider combo with corn cake w/apple jalapeño jam and Rockys smoked beans - Food Trucks Near Me - Columbia, Pennsylvania

Hands down legit BBQ! My husband and I stopped in for a meal before heading over to a demolition derby. Best decision ever! The pulled pork sandwich was delicious and the sausage was nice and smoky. They even recommended sauces that worked best with each meat. The slaw, potato salad and corn cake were all so flavorful. All of the ladies checked on us a few times throughout our meal. The friendliness and recommendations and the amazing food are why we will definitely be coming back the next time we're in the area. read more

Wow!!! Outstanding barbque! This is a tiny place in Columbia Pa. Husband and I just stopped in for lunch, and it was fantastic. We tried the Slider combo that had a pulled pork and a brisket slider (and we opted for the traditional sauce) he got the potato salad, and I got the macaroni salad. Everything was exceptional. read more

Best ribs I can ever remember. Cornbread was excellent also. Service was fast and friendly.

Great BBQ, I got the 4 meat meal (I couldn't decide which meat to order) and the brisket, pulled pork, Ribs and sausage were all excellent. Limited seating so be aware, but I travelled 70 miles to get there and I definitely will be going back to try the peach bread pudding!! read more

Stopped here on a weekend for lunch after reading reviews. Parking is parallel on the street with meters. It was busy when we entered - there were 3 tables inside but all were taken so we ordered takeout. We ordered two brisket sandwiches, Mac and cheese, and cornbread. The sandwiches came with a small container of slaw and a choice of BBQ sauce, and a side of pickles. Let me agree with another reviewer - the Mac and Cheese was the best I've ever had! Buttery, cheesy and not overly saucy with large macaroni noodles, full of flavor - truly scrumptious. And the slaw was delicious too - with celery seed and a dressing that was mild and flavorful and the cabbage was fresh and crisp not overly creamy and limp like so many others. Now I want to try all of their sides! I like that the takeout was packaged in separate containers - even the roll was separate in a baggie so that we built the sandwich before we ate it and it wasn't all soggy in the bag before we reached our destination to eat. Definitely worth checking this place out and we will be returning in the future. read more

Outstanding Bbq! The brisket was tender with great flavor. The sides were so good. We will be back!

We ordered catering for my Dad's Celebration of life over the weekend and it was for about 150 people. Everything from ordering, having the food delivered by Rocky himself and set up all went perfectly! Then there was the food. Wow! It was so good. I can't give you more stars in this review but I would if I could. I could honestly make a meal just out of the baked beans alone. We definitely will be back again many many times in the future! Thank you Connie and Rocky for making my Dads day perfect! read more

Best bbq in central pa without question. The ribs are some of the best I've ever had regardless of region. Mac and cheese is also the bomb.

Fabulous BBQ. They prepared our sons wedding food. It was delicious. Rocky's wowed our guests including me. Will be back for more! Thanks for a job well done. read more

Great food, great service. We got our food quick and everything we ordered was great. The staff check with us multiples times to see if we needed anything. Definitely recommend read more

Oh it's good. I have to say the sides, the beans and the Mac-n-cheese, were the stars of the show. I can live off those. Nice cozy place, nice communicative staff, great food at a decent price. Love it. read more

Best BBQ in the area. The ribs, pulled pork and mac-and-cheese are a must try. Frequent specials but gotta be early because they sell out quick. read more

I've reviewed Rocky's before. All I want to add is this is the best BBQ and sides in this area bar none

This was our first time here so we tried 2 full rack of ribs with a Carolina sauce and a traditional sauce plus sides of the mac and cheese and the baked beans to go. The 2 racks of ribs were wrapped together in 2 wraps of plastic and then into a huge amount of heavy foil so as not to leak. They were very heavy, meaty, tender, not fall off the bone but allowed you to chew the meat off if you prefer to do that. They were wet but not saucy, almost a combo of a dry rub plus some sauce. Each rack was cut into 3 parts for 3 meals but with leftovers, it was another meal of them. The traditional sauce was very good and as expected in flavor. The Carolina sauce was thin and vinegary, not our favorite. The mac and cheese was very cheesy. The baked beans had so much hamburger in them plus onions that it could be a meal on its own. Included was a small container of pickles, didn't look all that good but they were crisp and delicious. It's quality food, good, tasty, meaty ribs, good sides, and a good value for the price paid. It is meter parking but you can wait while someone runs inside if you preorder. If the weather is nice, go over to the parking area at the park along the river. read more

The food usually sells out fast so if you want to eat here, pre-order for pick up. I love the Mac and baked beans for sides. The pickles are delicious too! I usually get the pulled pork sandwich platter. I have tried everything on this menu, I don't like brisket period so I'm not a good judge of that but people seem to love it. The only thing I don't enjoy on the menu is the collard greens, I don't like tomatoes in it and not what I'm used to. Excellent service and the establishment is always clean and friendly. read more

Great food, great service. Didn't try the craft beer but another customer said they were very good. Had the combo platter with ribs, chicken, Cajun sausage, brisket and pulled pork. Comes with 2 sides. More than enough for 2! read more

By far my favorite ribs an sides! Food is amazing! Great staff! Located on 3rd Street beside Stover's! Rated by yours truly, Charles N Charge read more

Wow! Wow! Wow! My son and I stopped in yesterday to see what the fuss is all about! We have officially found our go to BBQ spot! We had the slider combo, the brisket and the pulled pork were on point! Tender and juicy! The Mac and cheese, out of this world! We tried the corn cake and loved it too! We will make the 30 minute drive to hit this place up again and again! The service was great as well! Bravo guys! read more

Insanely good BBQ. We ordered the ribs and brisket, with Mac and cheese & coleslaw. The meat was so tender. The Mac and cheese was seasoned incredibly well. The service was quick and the price was reasonable. We will definitely be returning!! read more

Rocky's BBQ is without a doubt one of the best BBQ serving food trucks in central PA. We first encountered Rocky's during the monthly First Friday Food Truck Court in Downtown Lancaster and it was addiction at first bite. From the smoky yet tender, melt in your mouth chicken to the spicy authentic collard greens, to the creamy euphoria inducing Mac & cheese, Rocky's hits a home run every time. We loved Rocky's so much we even had them cater our wedding, food truck, smoker, and all. To date, our food is still the most talked about aspect of our wedding. We had a BBQ smorgasbord of pulled pork sandwiches topped with homemade slaw, smoked chicken, BBQ spare ribs, and all the trimmings. The best indication that the food truck was a hit, a guest at our wedding booked Rocky's for their own party. If you want BBQ that's sure to taste even better than you remember, than I suggest seeking out Rocky's the next chance you get. read more

I love Rocky"s BBQ. The brisket is so good and tender. The ribs are off the chain delicious. I also like the Pork barbecue sandwich.

Food was amazing and so was the atmosphere. We ordered a half order of ribs and they had amazing flavor and we cooked perfectly. Sauce was amazing as well. We also ordered a sandwich that was a hit as well. The mac and cheese was possibly the best I've had before. read more

I know I'm in the minority here but I didn't find Rocky's to be very good. It was OK. The Brunswick stew wasn't exactly a stew and didn't seem anything like what I usually get when I order Brunswick stew. I also got the brisket sandwich. Brisket was cut thin and was very lean, almost dry. It came with an au jus which helped with the dry but then took away from the bbq sauce taste. Sauces were OK. Meat had no smoke. Bun wasn't very good either. Overall it's good for a quick cheap average meal read more

Decent bbq- the woman running the cash register was rude and was the only detractor in our experience. Also kind of odd how they limit the bbq sauce to one cup.. I recommend trying this place but not when that woman is working. read more

Rocky's Food is always great! Done to perfection! The staff is wonderful and very welcoming. It's a bit of a drive for me to get there but worth it! read more

Food is amazing! Just had the Texas Twinkies & pork egg rolls. Both had incredible flavor. The customer service was very good as well. Worth the drive. read more

Was walking around Columbia today just enjoying the fresh air and sights. Stopped by and got the Pulled Pork platter with savory baked beans with bacon, delish mac and cheese, and a tasty slaw (no mayo) for ten dollars. I strolled down to the river and had a lovely lunch. Really top-notch grub. read more

Came in here on a snowy Saturday evening, selection picked over...but we expected as much on a day like today. Portions were large and the service was very friendly. The spicy cucumber salad and the pickles were the best selections. The meats were good with a variety of sauces available. read more

Delicious! The menu has a great variety! One thing we love the most was that their side dishes are wonderful. So many local bbq places have just ok sides. Rocky's however has amazing side dishes. Nice portions, good food and very friendly staff. We will be back! read more

Well Well worth the drive ! Our food was amazing perfectly smoked nice sizeable portions Service was outstanding Can't wait to try them again read more

What can I say?? We had Rocky's cater a surprise 50th birthday party for my boyfriend this weekend. Nothing but the BEST for my guy, so I ordered Rocky's, and in a bit of a pinch. But Rocky's totally came through for me, and made the whole experience very easy, start to finish. They even set up the food for me and gave suggestions on what to do to keep the food hot and fresh. And let me tell you, the guests were going crazy over the food!! The pulled pork, cole slaw, bbq sauces, brisket, Mac and cheese, and baked beans were absolutely delicious! My cousins and I were even ecstatic to find some pickles in the delivery, which disappeared immediately. We order from the restaurant frequently, and some even drive from Maryland just for Rocky's. We just cannot say enough great things about Rocky's food, and the service is always top notch. Not only were we already fans for life, but now they have a whole new crop of fans as a result of this party! Thank you, Rocky's, for everything! read more
