Found another BBQ place close to us worth mentioning in our Florida stay, Uncle Kenny's BBQ right here in Clermont which boasts good solid bbq with all the fixings and St. Louis style pizza. This place is not fancy but typical decor of a small town bbq restaurant. When your looking for good bbq you don't need candlelight and linens for sure! We decided to try their pizza first which was ok, nothing special, but to be fair we are from New York so enough said! We ordered the special of the day of the burnt ends with sides of fried okra and side salad with Texas toast stop. We also had the Pitmaster's combo plate of ribs and chopped brisket with mac and cheese and homemade chips. The meats were good and tender and we had four choices of their own sauce to dip in, original, mustard, vinegar and my favorite spicy! I loved the fried okra and homemade chips but the mac and cheese was lacking flavor. Next time I want to try the pretzel bites, fried pickle spears and toasted raviolis! We ended with their sweet chocolate overload cake but will be trying their caramel cheesecake and ooey gooey butter cake next trip! They have been here over 10 years and have a whole wall of awards for their BBQ and you can even purchase their rubs and sauces to bring home to make your own BBQ!

Dessert options. Clockwise - choc cake, peanut butter pie, caramel cheesecake, peach cobbler, banana cheesecake, ooey gooey butter cake.

We had been here a couple of years ago based on Yelp reviews but before I was an active contributor to the #YES. It left an impression so given we were in the area, I knew we had to come back. For our late afternoon lunch, we started with the pulled pork eggrolls. The order comes with two but they are the size of mini burritos so definitely enough to share with four people. Loaded with flavorful pulled pork and just the right amount of slaw for that ideal balance. As much as I wanted to get some chicken or ribs, I knew my late lunch was going to collide with my early dinner so I went with a brisket sandwich basket. I like that you have the option between sliced and chopped - which is my preference. I also asked for the sandwich on toast vs. bun and they are more than eager to accommodate. This sandwich along with my side of fried okra was a perfect meal to fill my bbq cravings. My meal today was 4 stars but I know if I had ribs or chicken, that 5th star would have been easy to add. Uncle Kenny's provides consistent good with great friendly service. Their sauces are all fantastic too so do yourself a favor and buy some to take home.

One of my favorite BBQ places to go to! Great sauces and the ribs are pretty good and the collard green are soooo good!

I always look for a good BBQ that is locally owned to visit! This place did not disappoint and it blows all the BBQ places in IN out of the water! The meat was juicy, seasoned out of this world and falling off the bone! The ribs had a smoked flavor but not too much smoke like I'm used too. The BBQ sauces were homemade and delicious! Try this place out!

Had the sliced brisket basket. It was very good; tender, moist and flavorful. Average roll. I chose the mac and cheese. Cheese had a hint of smoky flavor, which is not my preference. My husband had pulled pork with slaw on top, plus baked beans. He loved it. Service was prompt and attentive. Parking was easy. Located right next to Citrus Tower. Atmosphere is way casual, family oriented. Nothing fancy. Prices are reasonable and food is great.

Some of the best Barbecue I've found in FLORIDA!! It shows from the assortment of trophies and ribbons. The beef brisket was awesome, the pulled chicken was delicious! The beans? They're smack-your-momma good! I haven't found anything yet that isn't exemplary! Down to the bread... seriously, how do you make buttered bread something worth reviewing??? Heck if I know, ask Uncle Kenny!

Buttery toast, potato salad, macaroni and cheese, Flintstone beef ribs, brisket, coleslaw.

Okay, so here's the thing, this place was highly recommended by locals and I feel like it kinda didn't live up to the hype. And to be honest, I can be a garbage disposal, I eat and enjoy everything. The appetizers felt like they came from a bag in the frozen section of Publix, something you could get on your own instead of going to a restaurant for. The sides lacked flavor in my opinion, but the portion is fine because you get to have two sides along with the buttery toast, and the bbq meat is generous in size. But both times I went, they just didn't have a taste really worth going back for. Now, as for the BBQ: the chicken and brisket was okay, can't say it was great and can't say it wasn't, but what made me return a second time was the gigantic Flintstone beef ribs or whatever they're called. The flavor was really, reallllly good. The first time they put me in a food coma. The second time was a little bit too charred for my liking, so I had to unwillingly leave off a few pieces, but the overall taste of them is great!

Gorgeous brisket sandwich that tasted as good as it looks!

I'll bet that tens of thousands of years ago when man learned to control fire, BBQ was invented almost immediately. Can't you just picture caveman Gronk working on smoking the perfect dinosaur butt? To hell with learning language, Q is more important! After thousands of generations of practice, Uncle Kenny has got it down. You can tell it's in his genes! ATMOSPHERE- It's simple, it's a hole-in-the-wall way in the back of a plaza. One side has a bench for waiting on take out and the other side has a few tables. Expect an open kitchen for your viewing pleasure. It's very family friendly so expect a bunch of Munchkins around. ADULT LIBATIONS- Unfortunately there are none. I love a brew with my Q but not here. This is a soft drink only joint. CUSTOMER SERVICE- Excellent! They use the team approach here to expect to see more than one face. FOOD- Yup, it's all there. Brisket, ribs, pork, chicken, sausage and all the sides you expect are represented. There is a nice selection of sauces on the table. I had a simple brisket sandwich with krinkle cut fries. Along with a soft drink it cost me about eleven bucks. It was comfort food at its very best. A warm soft bun and perfectly smoked moist brisket. I added the mustard sauce and just moaned with delight. If I'm going to have frozen fries from a bag I like my krinkle cuts. These were cooked very nicely. I would have sold my Mother for fresh-cut fries but hey, you can't have everything. My fellow Yelpers average 4.5 stars and I agree. For me, to get to five stars would take fresh-cut fries and a cold beer but I still had a great experience.

I'm not sure how I never wrote a review of Uncle Kenny's - we lived about 10 miles south of them for six years, and it was our go-to place for BBQ in a land of chain restaurants. We've brought both local and out of town friends here frequently. You'll find them located in the back of the Citrus Tower complex and if you blink, you'll miss them. I always felt bad for the people coming out of Weight Watchers next store because the smells alone make me break my healthy eating. There is always plenty of parking in their lot without walking too far. You enter through the takeout area and seating is off to the left. Don't walk past their bottles of BBQ sauce without getting some. We keep our house stocked with their hot BBQ sauce. You'll find about six big booths, plenty of room for larger parties and larger guests. two small tables in the center and two smaller booths, perfect for two. The staff is friendly and efficient, getting orders in quickly and keeping drinks filled. I'm always impressed with the fact that both Kenny and his wife are there a good amount of the time. Honestly, I can only really speak to their BBQ dishes as I don't know that I've had anything else. But, we have never had a bad meal here. I highly recommend starting your dinner with their BBQ Pulled Pork Egg Rolls ($8.49) these are two big, fat, crispy egg rolls cut in half. They are stuffed full of lightly smoked pulled pork with just a touch of BBQ sauce and a littlecoleslaww for added crunch. They are served with a slide of coleslaw, and I like their mustard BBQ sauce with these. I think I've had their pulled pork, pork ribs, pulled chicken, brisket and their sausage. I'm obsessed with their smoked jalapeno sausage. I had the Pitmaster Plate with the sausage ($11.99), two sides and two pieces of Texas Toast. The sausage is moist and flavorful but not too spicy. For my sides, I got their greens (you'll want to save some of the toast to sop up the juices) and their wonderful BBQ baked beans (I love the chunks of meat in them). Truth be told, we moved to St Petersburg over a year ago and were in the area (35 minutes away) and made a special trip for their BBQ. You absolutely can't go wrong with anything on the menu! Yes, we're raving fans!

My family and I recently visited Uncle Kenny's BBQ for lunch at the recommendation of several locals we met at a shopping center across the street. We were told what it lacks in decor, Uncle Kenny's will for sure make up in it's food. They were right. The service was fantastic. The staff was very attentive and we wanted for nothing. We started our meal with the Pulled Pork Eggrolls. They were so good and honestly, could have been a meal by themselves. Seven of us were dining so we were able to try various items on the menu. Items ordered were the Carolina Pulled Pork Sandwich, Slicked Brisket Sandwich, Chopped Brisket Sandwich and the special of the day, the catfish platter. And don't let me forget the dessert! Let me just put it out there now, that may have been the best damn peanut butter pie I've ever had! The testament to this visit was when my Step Moms plate was left empty. This may have been the first time I've ever seen her eat everything on her plate. We can't wait to visit Uncle Kenny's BBQ again soon.

Visited Uncle Kenny's for a friends birthday lunch today. We had a big group so they set us up in this den like area downstairs which was pretty handy for the rest of the people since we had some loud kids, lol. Our orders were taken right away which was nice. The waitresses were very attentive the entire lunch. However when the food came I was a bit taken aback and how little meat was served. Could've used another scoop of pulled pork and my husband a few slices more of brisket. Our sides were delicious! Loved the Mac and cheese the best. Overall a great lunch. I'll definitely be back.

Stopped in Uncle Kenny's on a recent trip to Orlando. The weather wasn't great, so we got away from the theme parks to discover some old school Florida. We decided to visit the Citrus Tower in Clermont, which is in a hilly part of Florida - I didn't know there was a hilly part of Florida! The Citrus Tower is completely avoidable, but in the same parking lot is this wonderful little barbecue joint (a term I use very lovingly). The restaurant is lined with trophies that Uncle Kenny has won in competitions around the country. We read on Yelp about the pulled pork egg rolls & everyone was glad we tried them. Most of our crew got pulled or sliced pork sandwiches and loved them. The sides were great too - especially the fried okra. Fresh, not frozen and boy was it delicious!For me, the smoked prime rib was calling my name! It was lunchtime & I usually don't overdo it, but it was vacation - diet can start when you get home! Except for the fact that I completely over ate, to the point that I was uncomfortable on the ride back to Orlando, Uncle Kenny is a welcome new member of our family. read more

My family and I ate here for the first time this week and we will definitely be back. Love the small hometown feel of this restaurant. The waitresses were super attentive (our entire group never ran out of sweet tea) and our order came out quickly. Our table ordered the fried pickles appetizer, which had a nice crunch. I ordered the rib plate and the meat fell right off the bone. Delicious! They have 4 bbq sauces to choose from. An original, spicy, vinegar and mustard. The baked beans were good and the mac and cheese my husband ordered is a definite do again. The only thing I wasn't crazy about is the coleslaw. Overall good bbq spot in Clermont! read more

Yum! Stopped in here on a Thursday night for some dinner. We started with the pulled pork egg rolls and they were delicious. Pipping hot, but delicious. Definitely mix the mustard bbq sauce and the original bbq sauce for a delicious dipping sauce. We also shared the fries pickles because fried pickles are amazing. Came with a side of ranch. Yum yum! The man got the two meat combo (brisket and sausage), with sides of baked beans and coleslaw. He was in heaven. Meaty goodness, he said. I got the Nashville hot chicken sandwich with a side of fries. Great bun for the sandwich, and the chicken was hot - but not too hot. The coleslaw on top was the perfect topping. We got a slice of peach cobbler and a slice of the butter cake to go. Microwaved for about 30 seconds when we got home and oh yes. Very good desserts too! read more

Every time my family comes here we feel treated with love and respect from all of the employees. We like to share the meat platters with ribs and pork- Tried the fried okra for the first time today and was not disappointed.

Legit southern BBQ shack! From the lacquer covered tables displaying photos and old flyers, to the thick slabs of Texas toast, this place takes me right back to my childhood in Louisiana at the neighborhood joint. We had pulled pork and brisket, and my only complaint is that I didn't order some burnt ends too!!! (Get them on Sundays) The sauce is the real star here. 4 kinds to choose from: Original, spicy, vinegar, and mustard. The vinegar was our favorite. I put the mustard at #2 and my SO liked the original. read more

I wasn't able to sit down and order so my review is based on carry out. We picked up the big daddy's combo for Mother's Day and was delighted with how much food we were given. There was 3 of us and the amount of food could of easily taken care of maybe 5-6 people. It came with brisket, fall off the bone ribs, chicken, bread and 2 sides (we got the mac and cheese and the potato salad) I'm not a huge chicken fan, but the chicken was extremely juicy and seasoned well. The ribs were on point and fall off the bone just the way I like them and the brisket was good as well. The Mac and cheese were southern style and not creamy at all! The bread was average and the potato salad was well put together! Will definitely be coming back read more

My baked potato had barely any chicken flakes on it. I asked if I could have a little more. Waitress gave me a funny look but finally brought a little more on side. At check out we found out she charged us additional 3.50. We were surprised as noone mentioned its going to cost us 3.50 for a little more chicken.. complaint at cashier, who was repeating to is " we weigh our chicken, we weigh our chicken we weigh our chicken.

I don't know what to say other than this was so good! It's clean and quiet, and the staff is friendly. I had pulled chicken with a side salad and macaroni and cheese, and it was excellent. I love barbecue and I haven't had any since my move back down south, and I'm glad to have found Uncle Kenny's! The only things keeping me from giving 4 stars is the fact that our server wasn't very knowledgeable on the menu and had to go to the kitchen almost every time we had a question about the menu. Secondly, a server sat down at the booth behind us with customers (they seemed to be friends or relatives) and had to be told that she was on duty and that this wasn't appropriate behavior. That was a little odd, but overall we had great service and great food. read more

The BEST ribs!! The meat fell right off the bones. The brisket and sausage were just as good. You have 4 sauces to choose from & I tried all but the Vinegar. It was hard for me to pick between the mustard & original so I mixed the two. I came back home (Miami) craving some more BBQ after having Uncle Kenny's so I decided to check out a local spot that a colleague (who's from Memphis & prides himself on recognizing good BBQ) recommended. It fell short & just didn't compare. So I sent my colleague on a 4 hour drive so he can experience Uncle Kenny's BBQ. I cant wait to drop by again when I'm in the area. Service was just "ok" but when the food is this good I can overlook that. read more

This is without a doubt the best BBQ spot you can find in the Clermont area! Melissa took very good care of us! We started the pulled pork egg rolls and they were out of this world, you get 2 egg rolls cut in 4 pieces. For lunch I got the pulled pork plate, it can with Texas toast and the two sides I chose were fried okra and coleslaw. Normally I am not a fan of okra because you can tell it's been previously frozen. This okra was so fresh and crisp. The pulled pork was very flavorful and with a bit of the Mustard BBQ sauce it is perrrrrrfect!!! The smoked prime rib philly was the special, so we definitely had to go with that! It was delicious, prime rib was prepared perfect. Really wanted to try dessert but was stuffed!! Will definitely be back again! read more

An authentic neighborhood joint, with lots of tables (unlike some other BBQ places). I heartily agree with the other reviewers who mentioned the BBQ pulled pork egg rolls. They're excellent! We visited on a October Friday night. My partner and I both had the Pitmaster 2 Meat Combo. She had the chicken and brisket; I had the sausage and ribs. ***All of them were excellent***. We especially liked the fact that they didn't arrived slathered in sauce - they were dry,and you add your own sauce from the choice of Kenny's sauces at the table: We liked all of them, but my favorite is the "original" BBQ Sauce. The help was friendly and quick, the prices are right. All in all, this is a *great* BBQ place! read more

The restaurant is family owned by an awesome family. Normally, Kenny, his wife or both are in the restaurant overseeing things and getting their hands dirty. It's in an older shopping place near the citrus tower and there's plenty of parking. The space is limited inside but I've never had a problem being sat. Anything on the menu will taste sinful. I used to always order the brisket but then I became a fan of their pulled chicken. You never leave here hungry or thirsty. The staff is pretty attentive on your drinks. Since, they work as a team different individuals will check on you throughout your meal. The food comes to the table relatively fast unless it's a steak which takes as long as the temp you desire it. If you have a sweet tooth, their chocolate chip cookies are baked fresh everyday and melt in your mouth. Whenever, I come home to visit family, I always stop it and enjoy this one of a kind restaurant's BBQ. PS: the mustard sauce is award winning ! read more

Uncle Kenny's BBQ is a Clermont staple! I had no idea they served St. Louis style pizza until recently so I had to try it. My significant other is a STL native and says that this pizza tastes just like home. The pizza and fried ravioli were fresh and hot, both cooked to perfection. I look forward to coming back and trying the BBQ next time. read more

This is a small little BBQ, and obviously a community family. Some people liked the BBQ more then others, but this place gets 5 stars for the service, homie atmosphere, and sweet people. Food: (4 STAR) half rib dinner 5 star. My BBQ pork sandier have was good but not the best pork I've ever had. The food is good, with all types of sauces and defiantly made with love. Atmosphere: (4 star) comfortable, welcoming, and you can come dressed in anything. Service: (5 star) wonderful people, everyone was welcoming, people like this are the reason I love family owned restaurants like this. read more

I've been ordering from this restaurant for years, the food has always been decent but the service is very sub-par. The manager has a serious attitude issue and is always frowning. If you ask her for anything, she will begrudgingly assist. Some people just do not belong in the service industry. Today, for the second time this year I ordered food from them and found it missing 2 or 3 items upon delivery. When I called the restaurant to tell them, the manager (same woman) was defiant that nothing was wrong, until I explained that the food that I ordered was just missing! Upon hearing my frustration, she decided to hang up the phone. I called DoorDash, quickly resolved the issue but now this restaurant has lost another patron. There are MANY other BBQ places around, you even have a new one coming up right down the road! Not to mention, the food here really isn't much different from SONNY'S BBQ Chain. read more

First time diners... definitely not our last! We ordered the pulled pork egg rolls for appetizer, and they were awesome (though I typically don't eat pork). I am not a huge fan of BBQ... I know, crazy since I went to a BBQ joint... but it's making me think different. It was delicious! For lunch, I had the chicken tender platter (had to, again, not a huge fan of BBQ) and it was so yummy. I had the beans as a side and they were awesome. My better half had the turkey special, with collard greens and beans. He also loved it. The food came out fast and hot, and I love how you walk in and can see directly into the kitchen. That tells me they have a clean place with homemade food - nothing to hide. This is something I can definitely appreciate! We were full at the end of our meals, but decided to get a couple desserts to go for later... ordered the peanut butter pie and the butter cake. Both were amazing !!!!! We are already talking about heading back next time we're in the area. It's nothing fancy on the inside... but definitely check it out. Great food. Great service. Great place. read more

The sign inside states that this is the best barbecue in town - - - and by observing the many locals present that appears to be the case. Especially popular are the ribs and the fried rolls. The sauces are tasty and delightful . Over all the food was good the portions were reasonable but not generous. The staff was attentive and pleasant. read more

This is the place to go for some real bbq. Kenny is an award winning bbq person that decided to open a restaurant. We walked in and got a friendly greeting and taken to our seat. Our drink order was taken and then they came back with our drinks and took our order. We had a pork sandwich, brisket sandwich, and fries. The brisket was full of flavor with lots of meat. The pork sandwich was a little dry, so it does require some sauce. Since fries do not come with the sandwich, we ordered a basket of fries. They were very hot and were crinkle cut just like I prefer. They came around to offer us dessert, but we were not interested. The one bad side is their prices are high. Overall this place is well worth the trip to Clermont. read more

I'm serious, if you hangout with me during an Easter, Thanksgiving, or Christmas dinner, I'm grabbing for the rolls, and making small sandwiches out of whatever is in front of me. It's a problem. But anyway, burgers, chicken sandwiches, fish sandwiches, Ruebens, monte cristos, it was all just sandwiches. I was in heaven. I ended up ordering the Po Boy Crispy Shrimp (Tartare sauce, cucumber, cilantro, carrots and chihuahua cheese). Just to be clear, this was not a po' boy. I feel like it was also trying to be a banh mi. I'm not sure. What I am sure of, though, it that it tasted pretty darn good. The roll was soft and large. The veggies were fresh and crispy. There was plenty of shrimp on here, so I wasn't getting cheated of meat like some food trucks try to do. It was just a good sandwich. I can't ask for much more. Big fan of this food truck.

Well I was in the area on business and started to look for BBQ online. This place wasn't really near my hotel, but I came across some BBQ competition events and this place was winning a good deal of awards. I came across the National Best of the Best sauce competition and this dude won a category. That ain't easy to do. The place was ok, nothing special to look at. The food...well it was exceptional. The sauce is very good and they have a good selection to choose from. I splurged on the food going with both chicken and a rib plate. I travel a good deal and BBQ is a vice of mine. They did a great job with both. I was very satisfied at the end of my meal. The prices were very reasonable for what you receive. The service was very friendly and they were eager to discuss how they got started. They are a BBQ competition family and they decided to start a small place to own and grow with the community.

By far my favorite place for BBQ in this area! It's a wonderful mom and pop restaurant that is for everyone. Photos of family, friends, history of Clermont, and contest awards make it a welcoming place to dine. Also the staff are friendly and take pride in making sure their customers are happy! I've tried several items here and have yet to be dissapointed. Their ribs are amazing with lots of meat that fall right off the bone. The brisket is done just right without a hint of toughness or dryness. However, my favorite meal that keeps me coming back is their jalapeño sausage!! It's made there fresh every day, and has a hint of spiciness that's not too strong. Put some of their BBQ mustard sauce on it and you're in Heaven. If you're in the area it's definitely worth checking out. Compared to other BBQ joints and chains nothing beats it. Also, you get a lot for what you pay for. The portions are HUGE so you have leftovers to enjoy another day! read more
