I give the ribs 4.5 star. wow them some good ribs and got some meat on em. just ran up on this place and glad I stopped.

Rodgers BBQ is serving up some tasty bbq. Tried the chicken today, it was flavorful and juicy, went perfect with macaroni and cheese and the sweet potato casserole. The cornbread was delicious. Peach cobbler amazing, perfect amount of real crust to peach ratio. Service was fast. Plenty of parking. Ambiance: Takeout style, down home barbecue spot. Chat with the folks while you wait on your order or wait in your car until you think your order is ready. read more

Rodgers B-B-Q - 1/2 Chicken with Barbcue Sauce - Barbeque Near Me - Mobile, Alabama

Oof. You remember when your mom took you to the country for the summer and it ran into the family reunion? That's this place. This reminds me of my elders on Starhope church Rd. For a plate of food to transport me back to my childhood, this is it. The ladies working were friendly. No dine-in. And you don't need to dine-in here because you need to be close to your bed. When we wake up, we'll be reheating our food. I want them to cater my repass. read more

Rodgers B-B-Q - Ribs with the spicy sauce, mac n cheese, collard greens, and their (whole) chicken. - Barbeque Near Me - Mobile, Alabama

We were here for school & wanted some BBQ so we went over to Rodgers BBQ since it was the closest one & I was not disappointed one bit! From the moment I stepped in the door I knew this place was a BBQ lovers heaven, from the ladies taking my order and remembering my name long enough to call my order out, to the sweet lady in the back cooking on a Gas stove! This is such a nice little spot to get some to-go BBQ! They also have pulled pork sandwiches! read more

Years ago someone introduced me to a great spot for barbecue, and it's still just that a GREAT spot. I'm not usually in the area, so I always forget to go by there until someone reminded me about Rodger's BBQ. I usually would go for ribs, when it comes to barbecue, that day not so, I could not resist the barbecue chicken. I was not at all disappointed. The chicken was tender, the barbecue sauce is a smoky sweet. The greens, good grief, those greens were delicious. Next, I've tried peach cobbler from here to Timbuktu. I don't like a lot of nutmeg, I like just the right amount of cinnamon. I'm from the south so I love the crust but I mean throw some peaches in there, right. Well that's exactly how Rodger's BBQ does it, just how I like it. I'm not going to waste your time going on about the flaky crust and how delicious those peaches were no, no, no. I'm not going to waste your time talking about just the right amount of cinnamon and how this it was just absolutely yummy and delicious, nope. I want you to go check it out for yourself. It's a short drive on the interstate to the hood off St Stephen's Road but it's a drive worth taking. Don't forget your mask, don't forget the extra napkins, and don't forget to review it. read more

Rodgers B-B-Q - Bbq chicken, greens and peach cobbler - Barbeque Near Me - Mobile, Alabama

Can't get no better than this hometown jewel. Looking for great BBQ in the city then look no further. Just call ahead or get ready to wait.

On a business trip on Mobile. Lots of locals were raving about this place. 5 of us walk in, all order our food. $20 for 3 rips that are poorly cooked and bad flavor. All the sides were not prepared well and tasted bad. Chicken had 0 flavor and was over cooked. Two of my coworkers are on their way right now to get a refund. Would not recommend. Giving 2 stars because the staff is very friendly, should be 1.5. read more

Everything about the restaurant was excellent, the GrubHub service via Yelp was poor!

WHY ARE THESE RIBS SO DAMN FIRE?! I normally don't eat pork ribs, or much pork for that matter. I prefer some good meat beef ribs. However, I was told long ago that if i "want beef ribs i need to go to Texas because Alabama oinks instead of moos" (that just tickles me)! You pick up the rib, can wave it around and it's a stiff as a bone. But once you lips wrap around the bone (intermission to wipe mouth) the meat just slides of and falls into your mouth! Man! When craving bbq while in Bama, this is where you go. It appears to be in the hood- but isn't all the best food?! read more

I've been eating their ribs since my parents used to take us to mobile on the weekends to visit our family members. We always get a couple slabs of ribs, bread, and a couple of sides. Of all the years I've visited, they've never lost their touch. The sauce has an amazing taste and it's not too thick and not too thin, if that make sense. The ribs probably don't even need the sauce, but why stop at the combustion of flavors? The baked beans are great as well. Highly recommend but be careful, the food is addictive read more

Was told by a local that this was one of the best barbecues in Mobile Alabama. Our hotel was 10 minutes away from it so we decided to check it out before going to Mardi Gras parade. Upon arrival. There was 1000 cars in the parking lot so I was extremely excited to try out the food because a lot of cars means good business and good business means wonderful flavorful food. So on Tuesdays and Thursdays they have a fried rib sandwich for 7.99 so we decided to get that because it was Tuesday. We go inside and because it was fat Tuesday which is considered a holiday out there they were not doing it, so we just got the rib meal dinner Which came with two sides. we ask the cashier what is the best sides, she said it's collard greens and macaroni and cheese so that's what we got. Told her that macaroni and cheese better be good or ima be upset she said it is, so I'm hold her to it. So we get our food fast. Everything is already smoked and cooked but they dip it in a boiling sauce so I can get hot again. We got our food fast and we took it to the parking lot to test it out. I was satisfied on how tender the ribs were falling off the bone, the sauce was good but I definitely was expecting a little bit more spiciness and more barbecue sauce taste. The macaroni and cheese was TRASHHHHH was disappointed because this was Kraft Mac and cheese no flavor nor extra cheese. THE collar greens taste like it was from A can this was probably my first and last time ever coming to Mobile, but this restaurant most definitely did not make me want to come back. read more

This one on St Stephen road is fantastic! Ribs are divine and the chicken is great as well. It will take about 10+ minutes to get your food once you've ordered - unless it's a holiday period. Then you may want to bring a chair. But there's a reason - great food! Get the potato salad! And the greens are good as is the peach cobbler. These are my favorite three sides. I'm sure the others are good as well. And the sweet tea that comes with the meals is DEFINITELY sweet. Enjoy! read more

I'll bet you're wondering how I ended up here. Well, let me start by telling you the story. It was a beautiful and sunny Fat Tuesday. My son and I had left the Knights of Revelry parade downtown, and decided to head to the vicinity of Airport and 65. That's not even close. We got caught up in the barricades and detours, and before we knew it, we were making our way into a neighborhood we hadn't anticipated venturing into. It was a bit scary at first, but I kept reminding myself where I came from and that I'd been in much worse neighborhoods before. Living around Mobile has turned me into a sissy. Before long, I even passed a house I wanted to buy. I could rip the boards off the windows, slap on a fresh coat of paint and add some beautiful landscaping. It would have been a little dollhouse. Of course, I'd have to gut it and redo the interior, and maybe throw up some shiplap. At this point, you're probably starting to think that I watch too much DIY Network and HGTV, and you might be right. I'll cut to the chase and get down to the review. We were getting hungry and we passed the place and decided to stop in. We're from Memphis, and BBQ is our thing. We walked in and immediately noticed no place to sit. It's strictly to-go. We placed our orders and waited for our food then went to a park (on the Eastern Shore) and ate. They don't have pulled pork or chopped pork or apparently Boston butt. They have chicken and ribs. I ordered a rib sandwich, which was 4 ribs and bread. I ordered peach cobbler and sweet potatoes for my sides. My son ordered a half slab of ribs and no sides. We both ordered drinks. Our total was $37, which seemed to be on the high side. The food itself was good, but not exceptional. I've reached the conclusion that exceptional ribs just don't exist around here. These appeared to a have a smoke ring, but I couldn't taste the smokey flavor because they were slathered with sauce. Ribs are like steak, if they're properly cooked, you don't need sauce. These probably needed sauce, but were still better than most of the ribs we've had around here. They were spare ribs. The sides were really good, which is what earned them the third star. I've thought about it many times since that day and I still can't figure it out... how the heck are you supposed to eat a "rib sandwich"? And why. Why would you want to? read more

We're on the way home and my husband and I wanted B-B-Q and this place popped up. It's a hidden gem. We entered to order and cashier was a bit rude. Probably because we were new faces. Which is understandable. We waited about 10 minutes for our food. There isn't anywhere to eat, it's more of to go. We ate a bit in the car and I just want to say that hands down best bbq I've had. read more

Honestly wish I could give no stars. I literally have nothing nice to say about this place. Got their BBQ on a whim because we were pressed for time but hungry. They act and talk like they have the best BBQ in the city when their ribs are bland and overpriced. Only way you could think this is the best BBQ you have ever had is if you have never had real BBQ. Stood in with my dad as they made our ribs and literally witnessed the cook take the rubs straight from a box to the grill without cleaning or cutting the membrane off the meat. No seasoning put on it whatsoever, only drowned in sauce after it was cut. Their ribs literally taste like smoke and sauce, bland meat, and a couple of our ribs on the slab were not even cooked all the way through. Sides that are sold with the meat are just as bad. No flavor, bland, some of the sides not able to be eaten. Do not believe what you hear from the locals about this place or from the t-shirts they sell, it's horrible. To top it all off, their servers are completely and utterly RUDE. read more

Best Barbecue I've ever had. I will not buy ribs anywhere else because I refuse to be disappointed.

I was born in Mobile, Alabama but spent the majority of my life in Kansas City (one of the B-B-Q capitals of the world). Bottom line: I know B-B-Q. Rodgers can hold its own with the best in the business. I had Rodgers while visiting in town for the holidays and this location is a few blocks away from my grandmothers house so I have been there quite a few times. Usually the order is a rack or two of ribs, this time we also ordered the Mac and cheese. It was as fabulous as the last time had it. The sauce is great. The meat is tender. The staff is down to earth and non-intimidating. If you want a savory B-B-Q delight, then give Rodgers a try. read more

The ribs were the best!!!!! They have a sign wear masks and limited amount of people inside. Follow instructions and all is well. The ribs were so seasoned and the sauce was the right amount. I'm mad I didn't buy more. read more

hands down the best bbq in mobile al!!!! ribs are amazing!!! oh let's not forget the peach cobbler is bomb!!!!

If I could give no stars I would. Number one, this place is filthy! I do not mean just dusty I mean dirty walls unclean counters and surfaces. I was getting food for my co-workers who swore by this place which, I do not understand why since they have a set price on the board but rang up a different price, They are very rude and act like they are they best when after tasting some of their food I must say they are not. The rib had no flavor and the smoke flavor taste like a fake flavor that comes from adding liquid smoke to the raw meat. My father is a chef and specialized in Lechón, my grand mother had several restaurants in Ohio and my grand uncle made bar b que smokers for a living so I know a good smoked Bar B que and this is NOT the best as their shirts state. The meat is sub par to begin with very small size in the chicken and the ribs are heavily grizzled. The sides were disgusting the Mac and cheese was not cooked properly so that the chees blended into a creamy sauce texture it was gritty and the curds were sperated leaving the mac and cheese to tase oily and flavor less. The peach cobbler was burnt. (I am guessing they used oil and not butter because there was no buttery taste to the burnt crust.) The baked beans were served as they came in the can. the potato salad was the worse thing I have ever tasted the eggs that were in the salad were not even edible and it had sugar added. the only time you need to add sugar to food is when you do not know how to cook and you are trying to get people to eat it anyway. I admit being raised my superb grill masters I am spoiled but One thing I cannot tolerate is a bad sauce.. this sauce taste like it is a water down generic store brand sauce. the staff were RUDE so RUDE! When they rang up my order it did not match what the sign says it should be when I asked the manager about this she stated that the dinner were actually higher than what I paid. I pointed out to her that that is not what their menu board states and she did not have a comment. I do not care how much people tell you this place is good trust me, if it was that good why are they still in a building that looks like it should be condemned? Why can they not hired staff who knows how to speak to people? Who comes into work everyday and looks at the dirty ceiling, walls counters and floors and decides not to wipe them? What kind of manager does not know her own prices? And why does she not have the workers clean up? If I am going to pay $16.00 a plate for food , it better be up to snuff and this place is not worth it. You will have a better meal marinating some meat in Kraft s Bar b que sauce and baking it in your oven than you would eating here. While you are at it also make some box mac and cheese it will taste better than what they call Mac and cheese here. I will be making a call to the Health Dept Monday since one of the people in our group got sick from that nasty potato salad (I warned him it was nasty) I have been to 7 BBQ's in this area looking for a good BBQ plate from a CLEAN place and so far I have just been disappointed time and time again. Sonny's is ok If you ask them to put the chicken through twice other wise it's runny and gross , the brick was ok as well but the sauce is weak and it ruins the smoke flavor of the meat which is great. Next time, I will go back to the Brick and ask for just the smoked meat and put my own sauce on it and finish it up at home But I will NEVER go back to Rodgers. They have to bribe people with TV's to eat that crap.. read more

I visited Rodger's B-B-Q because my friend from Mobile raves about it every time we pass through. I got the chicken dinner (half a chicken with 2 sides, bread, and a sweet tea) and she got ribs. They take the already smoked meat and warm it up in bbq sauce so you get warm meat dripping in sauce. If that's the kind of bbq you like you better go get some! We also got the potato salad, mac and cheese, and baked beans. The peach cobbler and banana pudding were delicious. Everything is take out so plan on bringing it home or eating in the car. read more

Best ribs in Mobile. Period. I don't know what Anne G.'s issue with this place is, but I think her review is pure fiction. It's a bbq shack, not a five star sit down restaurant. Smoke taste is definitely there and legit, not from a bottle... in my opinion, great ribs don't need sauce; that being said, their sauce is about average in my opinion. I always order them with no sauce, anyway. Do yourself a favor and try this place out, you'll be glad you did. Leave "The Brick" for people with a vivid imagination, like Anne G. read more
