We picked up Sharko's BBQ at the DG location and brought it home to eat. The ribs, pulled pork and sauces were awesome! We gobbled up the baked beans, very tasty, even for a 10 year old boy who is picky. The Mac n cheese is very saucy/creamy if you like that style, but we would choose a different side next time. The brownie was also very delicious. We will definitely be back as it was quick, easy to order in-person and close to home. The online ordering could use more descriptions...

First time visit here today. My husband and I are from Chicago, and great barbecue is difficult to find nowadays. This place has a GREAT MENU. Ribs, brisket grilled cheese sandwich, baked beans, spinach casserole, coleslaw, cornbread muffin, chocolate frosted cake ALL DELICIOUS. My better half claims BEST PICKLES he's EVER had. So, YES, this is a MUST TRY !!! We will be going again, especially with family and friends, to prove to them there is still great barbecue around...

We used Sharko’s for our community wide BBQ and not only was the food terrific, Ron and his crew did a great job and helped make our event memorable. They served almost 400 people and everyone loved the food and the event. Thank you for a great evening!
