Incredible food, amazing service, perfect location on the river! This will be our new go-to spot!

I'd actually love to give 6 stars because this is the best BBQ I've had since moving to Utah! I'd also like to apologize to my other bbq spots as I will likely not return to them. The staff and Steve are all very welcoming and friendly and take your order at the counter. We had burnt ends and pulled pork with a tater scoop and jalapeno poppers. It was all amazing and perfectly seasoned. Nothing needed to be covered in bbq sauce. They also have beer and offer local picks from talisman brewing. The inside is well decorated with a motorcycle on the wall and law tigers stuff throughout. I'm excited to visit on a warmer day so I can sit outside and enjoy the patio with the river. read more

Have always wanted to try Texas style bbq and this place definitely hit the mark! We tried the brisket, burnt ends, sausage, turkey, pork ribs and Dino ribs. Every single thing was so juicy, tender and packed with so much flavor. I'm not a huge sausage girly but theirs was kind of addictive, along with everything else. The staff was so kind and answered all our questions. Will be coming back again soon read more

I've loved a few things here: Drunken chicken is fantastic. The pulled pork and ribs are very good. I'm wanting to try the beef ribs. The sides have been great as well, the potatoes, the cobblers, the veggies, the jalapeno poppers: all excellent. I'm really conflicted here and want to give these guys a solid "5" but they just keep missing on the brisket. 4 visits now and the brisket has been off every time. Three visits have been too dry and tight, and the fourth was served a plate of fat. All bbq spots can be judged by the brisket and I really want them to get this hammered out. Atmosphere is great, you can sit inside or by the river. Condiment add-on bar is solid and I hope they add a couple different sauces. Service is good and they cut your meat in front of you and have yet to not have the scale tip in my favor, A couple more visits with fingers crossed that they get the brisket dialed in. read more

This new barbecue spot in Ogden is set to be a hit! We got there about 7:15 and most everything was sold out for the night so we were only able to get the burnt ends, tater scoop and the pulled pork. Those burnt ends were so delicious! The "taters" had a bit of a heat to it and the pulled pork was juicy. It also came with a slice of bread, which I would recommend be opted for a Texas toast slice as it was a bit lackluster and stale. They also offer some locally brewed beer, which is amazing to see businesses supporting businesses! The staff were friendly, and they have indoor and outdoor seating available. They also offer meat smoking classes, so you can learn how to be a pitmaster at home. Looking forward to trying this place again and we will be there earlier to make sure we are able to try more things! read more

First visit to this place wife and I went with a friend. Inserting place and layout. Both inside and outside seating and the place is large. You order at the counter food and drinks. Pay find a table and they bring it to you. Good selection too. Of beer and wine. Brisket which is what I had was very good. My wife had the burnt ends and liked them very much. So this place is fairly new and is well worth a visit. We will be going back soon and often. read more

Great food and amazing service. Traditional BBQ food and very welcoming environment. Best BBQ around here for sure.

Great food, service and vibe! Loved the many options and flavors. Will definitely be back.

REAL Texas barbecue in Utah! I am from Louisiana and WELL versed in Texas barbecue. I can attest that eating at Steve's is like I went through a wormhole into the heart of Texas barbecue country. The meat is smoked perfectly & the chicken is SO juicy (yes, even the white meat - which is hard to do successfully). The service is ALWAYS outstanding & Steve and his team are friendly, outgoing, and always check to see how you are enjoying the food. I really enjoy the laid back counter service without the pressure of a sit down restaurant looking to turn tables for tips. We love the patio as we can bring our dog (ask for a pup cup!). Love that he changed the corn to the south Texas corn (it's an amazing flavor bomb) from the corn on the cob & Steves reluctant addition of a "slaw" (we don't do sale in the south). We'll be back! read more

We had a yummy dinner here last week! The restaurant is very well decorated and the employees go above and beyond making you feel welcome and helping with the menu choices. I had the brisket and a tater scoop. I also had the smoked apple crisp. They are so generous with the servings and I had to take half my meal home. My husband had the pulled pork sandwich. We both loved the food and are planning on becoming regulars! read more

First visit to Steve's Black Sabbath BBQ (a la carte) on the pricey side. Food was fine. Service inexcusable. Toward the end of our meal, in discussion with our server, why we haven't received our adult beverage. To our surprise, our server hastily grabbed our tray of food from our table, and harshly said "you're done, good bye!" and quickly disposed-of our food in the garbage. We sat Stunned! On our way out, I briefly shared our experience to the Steve, the owner. He provided no concern, no displeasure, or opinion on our experience. Guess we won't be returning to Steve's Black Sabbath BBQ. read more

Gotta admit it was the name Steve's Black Sabbath BBQ that drew us in today. Wow! The food is fantastic! I'd give this fun place a 6! Highly recommend. read more

Brisket taste like roast. Sausage is ok but lacks any spice or seasoning. Ribs tasted like they were boiled. Pulled pork has zero flavor. All in all its decent bbq for utah. But awful if you've had good bbq. 3 stars is generous. read more

They catered a birthday party and the food was amazing!! Will definitely be visiting the restaurant! Best Texas BBQ I've had! Yum!

Food was fantastic and the folks working there couldn't be nicer. They helped make sure I picked the right selection. I would recommend the burnt ends and avoid the coleslaw. It was nice and clean inside. read more

Tried this for lunch today for the first time. The service was excellent. They were kind of slammed with online orders and people in the restaurant but the line moved in good time and the staff was super friendly. The owner gave us samples while we stood in line and the staff also offered to let me try one of the sides to gauge the spice level. The food was yummy overall (I had the brisket, potatoes, Texas corn, apple crumble, and a soft drink). The brisket was tender and juicy, the potatoes were tasty, but nothing to shout about. The corn was buttery and sweet with a little kick to it. The crumble was ok. (The sides and desserts are much better at Lost Texan. Greater variety, better tasting overall.) The design of the restaurant was a bit odd. Only large round tables or one center bar with high stools. So be aware that small parties will either need to belly up to the bar or take up a massive table to sit lower (like the two of us did). I was disappointed that there was only one meal/ platter offering, "The Talisman." It is a great deal considering it comes with a beer flight. But I was there for lunch and planning to work afterwards so I didn't want any alcohol. So if you don't choose The Talisman, you have to order everything a la cart. That got pricey fast. I like the fact that at Lost Texan I can order a 2 meat or 3 meat platter that includes sides. That means greater variety at a better price. I'm not saying I won't be back, but if I'm in the mood for brisket I'm probably more likely to go to Lost Texan for the superior side options and the better overall value. More bang for my buck. read more

First of all, I am from San Antonio Texas, so I feel qualified, I can talk about Texas barbecue. So we went to this new place and I really like the barbecue. The brisket was very good, but that was all I had. My husband had pulled pork, sausage. He was very happy and said it was great! We did not try the chicken this time. The meat is served on a big steel tray so you can just have your own tray, or combine all the meat on one have everybody in your party eat off the same tray. That is why the meat is sold by the oz/pound. I wasn't too thrilled with the sides. ( please understand I am extremely picky) I had the barbecue beans and the coleslaw. I didn't like the coleslaw which had corn in it and it was just sour. I couldn't find salt and pepper. prefer a sweet-and-sour dressing. it was not a creamy dressing, it was vinegar based . the beans were just ok . I prefer pinto beans that aren't sweet. I could taste a bit of barbecue sauce in there so ... Which I don't like for Texas pinto beans. My husband had one jalapeño popper, Which was kind of expensive-- five bucks for one popper. He also had the mac & cheese, which was OK. One thing we would have a barbecue in San Antonio is pickled beets with onions, but they didn't have this. (Maybe Steve might consider adding beets to his lineup .?) I'm not sure which part of Texas he is from. I think maybe Dallas area You've got to consider Texas as a huge state and there's a lot of styles of barbecue. All in all, I would go back again for the barbecue and to see if they've got something I missed about the sides The service was very helpful and friendly. The restaurant is clean and has really cute style. read more

Steve's is THE best bbq I've ever had. I travel to Texas for work and Steve's is still my fav. The brisket melts in your mouth with some delicious smoked sausage and bomb homemade bbq sauce. Steve is a WAY cool dude. Give it a try! Also, you need to try to corn In my picture. It is incredible. His catering is very good too. read more

Awesome!! Everything is great except the coleslaw! Very friendly staff and environment. Had a great time but I'm serious about the slaw, wow no bueno. read more

We love this place. Like Steve, we are true Texans. Spent most of our lives there and we know good barbecue. Steve is friendly and silly and personable and always around. Rich and the rest of the gang are always super helpful and friendly and go above and beyond. My husband had two flat tires on his e-bike due to riding through some stickers, and Rich gave him and his bike a ride to the bike shop! It was so amazing! The music is awesome. Love the overall vibe. And if you need something to do on a Sunday afternoon, go by and have a cold one, some lunch, and listen to the music and hang out. Guarantee you'll have a good time. read more

We stopped in for an early Friday night dinner. Great service and great BBQ. The restaurant is decorated nicely and there is plenty of room for their guests. Steve and his team were friendly and engaging. It was great to walk down the serving line and be greeted and welcomed with a big smile.

BEST BBQ VENUE I've ever been to!!! The vibe in this restaurant is EPIC! My nose guided me in. You can smell the smoker down the street! These guys have done everything right! This is the perfect place for a business lunch to impress your clients or entertain and fill up the fam. Steve let us try his special pickled jalapenos. OMG! Must try! Authentic, most flavorful BBQ out there. When a cowboy and a hippie collaborate, good things happen!!! Well done!!! Shout out to Jessica as well who was grinding with a smile! read more

The brisket was amazing, as was the chicken thigh taco, taters, and service. I'll be back.

We didn't actually eat at this restaurant (yet!), however, due to their kindness we will be sure to come here the next time we dine out! My husband and I were sitting on the patio at the restaurant next door with our French bulldog, and the nicest guy from Steves asked if she wanted a pup cup. He brought her a little cup of smoked meat to try, which she loved! Huge thank you for the hospitality! read more

The staff was very personable and helpful. The food was delicious and made quickly. We will definitely go back again.

Talk about hands-down, one of the best around! The service is amazing quality of food is great and you can't go wrong with the atmosphere whether you're sitting inside or you're sitting outside next to the ogden river. It's awesome when live music is being played, and you can enjoy the experience even more with the river in the background. I appreciate the management and the whole team with how they are greeting people and talking customer service is a big deal. This shows the quality, respect and time the management has put in. A really big shout out and thanks to Steve the owner. All of you guys keep it up. read more

I am not a BBQ fan usually but this place is awesome!! Cool atmosphere, the owner has been there each time we have gone, and he's super nice. Staff is great and the food is soon good! Get there early.They sell out of everything. I got the special each time that has the three sandwiches a side and dessert. Personally, I like the apple crisp better than the peach cobbler. The side of potatoes were awesome.I did not like the "asian style" coleslaw, to me was not actually asian style because it still had a white dressing. But we keep going back.It is a really great place. All of the meats have been excellent quality. read more

My son and I travel often for his junior sports. We have had BBQ all over the country,including Texas. We like BBQ but candidly, I have never had BBQ to rave about until now. We over ate and loved every minute of it! Truly the best we have ever had. The chicken wings are tender and fall off the bone moist. Brisket is moist and flavorful and the ribs are fantastic. Did a pulled pork Sammy, all good. My son (18 ) and all carnivore, said it best, no sauce needed! The staff is very welcoming and accommodating. Ambiance is well, BBQ with a 70s rock vibe BUT on the river. Very comfy and casual. Next time we'll get there earlier so we can try the sausage as it was already sold out at around 7! read more
