The best smoked meat in Lincoln,NE! You will never leave hungry. The owner Scott is one of the nicest people you will meet & he always makes you feel welcomed.

Only BBQ joint open on our way through. Glad we stopped. Mac and cheese is excellent with the Brisket.

Easily the best bbq in town. Their smoked wings are so good we served them at our wedding

Parking is on-street, and metered (12 minutes for 25 cents). $26.19 purchased 6 wings with Thai chili sauce, 1/2 rack of ribs, and sides of corn bread and baked beans with links. "Fall off the bone" appears to be the goal here. The well smoked wings, which were not subsequently deep or air fried, barely stuck to the bone, and it proved impossible to pick up the ribs, which came wet, without the bone falling out. Both meats needed sauce to create a flavor profile. The wings were tender without being mushy, but the rib meat unfortunately crossed this particular line. The cornbread and baked beans were both good bites. So, we would order the wings here, and there are quite a few other sauces to sample. But we would pass on the ribs.

Well, the food was old. Like crock potted (what may have begun as smoked) was put in a hot plate for HOURS. All the food was falling apart. The pulled pork was a sloppy greasy mess, but you wouldn't be able to tell because to hide the oldness, they doused everything with bbq. Don't waste your time. the food is not worth what they charge. Applebee's has better ribs 7 days a week. I'm wiser for the experience but I wouldn't spend money there again.

If you haven’t had this mans ribs you haven’t lived!!! Everything on the menu was amazing! Thank you for the great food and friendly conversation! Truly a hidden gem ?!!!!

Ordered 1lb of brisket.was approximately $20 and was extremely bland.cut in little squares which makes it looks like a can of alpo.worst "BBQ" I've ever had.gave two stars rather than one cause the guy threw in a free small potato salad.Dont waste your money...

Love this place. Great BBQ and wings that literally fall off the bone. So glad it's still around and kicking out great food.

Absolutely delicious food and the lunch special prices are unbeatable! Owners were super friendly and helpful (we were eating with a young toddler). We will definitely be back!

A really humble Owner. Tried 3 different kinds of the smoked wings, baked beans, Cornbread. The whole family loved it, smoked perfectly, seasoned well, delicious flavor and lastly packed so well. I would support such small hidden local businesses to any other big chain.
