Don’t let the outside appearance deceive you this was a great experience and the best BBQ I have ever had.
On our way to New Orleans, stumbled across this gem. When we pulled up and saw the exterior someone in our group said are we sure about this? And I said, oh yeah this is going to be good. We were not prepared for how good the food would be. But what made it even better was how welcome we felt by the good people that run this place. We had such a good time hearing stories and laughing with Bobo and the other members of the Shank Cat family. It felt like visiting an old friend's...read full review

Shank Cat's BBQ is a hidden gem serving up some of the best smoked brisket and ribs. The brisket melts in your mouth, and the ribs fall right off the bones. The sausage links are smoky and juicy, while the chopped beef and jambalaya are delish. The sides, especially the jambalaya, are highly praised, considered the best at a BBQ joint. The atmosphere is easy and laid back, with friendly staff that make customers feel like they've known them all their life. Customers highlight the great prices, tender brisket that can be cut with a plastic fork, and a welcoming environment that surprises visitors who might overlook the humble exterior. While some reviews mention the ribs being overcooked and needing more seasoning, the seasoning overall is appreciated, and the food is seen as a great support for the family-owned business. Don't miss the banana pudding! Located conveniently off the interstate with easy parking, this humble establishment offers great food and service. The Jambalaya is a must-try special that is fast, delicious, and worth the stop.
