“We were in town (from the Twin Cities) for the 2025 President's Day Classic, and had Hogtown Smokehouse cater a team (and parents) dinner for 30 in our hotel. Rico was fantastic in helping us out. Quick to respond to calls and emails. Gracious, and just wonderful altogether... and that's just the service. The food? The empty pans, told the story. Brisket, Turkey and Pork for meats. Mac & cheese, potato salad and beans for sides. EVERYTHING was amazing! I never right reviews, but Rico and staff deserve this one. If you're reading this, don't hesitate to give them a try. Thanks again, Rico!“

“Been driving passed this place for 5 years on my way home from work. What I learned is I been missing out for the last 5 years 😭. Just got 1lb of pulled pork and some sauce. 🔥 I purposely don’t order pulled pork at restaurants because it’s always dried out. Now I finally have a place to get delicious pulled pork. Does recommend! Can’t wait to try the other stuff!!“

“We just went for the first time tonight & hate we’ve missed out on going sooner! We are from Southern Indiana & it’s going to be hard to find anything to compare at home! Greg, Louis, and Eddie who were working the smoker when we left were so nice, told us all the ins and outs of the place, and truly take pride in their work. That pride is reflected in the delicious meal you’ll get! 10/10 recommend!“

“Great bbq. Will be back. Great service“

“It I’m from Louisiana and I enjoyed the Barbecue brisket it was delicious in fact it’s the best I ever had“

“Red is the greatest“

“When in St. Louis have the St. Louis style ribs. We had a full rack with the macaroni cheese. The rub and sauce were very good. The ribs were delicious and the meat just fell off the bone, perfectly cooked. The Mac and cheese was very good. Service was good but it didn’t seem like any of the staff that we saw looked happy, they were all kinda frowning. But the food is great.“

“First time there the food was really good I got a double cheeseburger, my mom and her friend got a whole Jack plate too and it was really good they didn't really add no salt to the whole Jack plate though so, my son got a Philly cheese steak and he only ate half of it so wow and he can eat“

“My food was delicious I usually get the snoot and Rib tip combo is so delicious it's always fresh it's real barbecue from off the grill you can taste the smoke flavor also like the potato salad and spaghetti yep my s n o o t s is always crunchy rib tips always t e n d e r I think the next thing I'm going to try is the Char-Broil hamburger“

“I liked the flavors alot it was good the service was also good im writing this review because I feel bad about how low I tipped when me and my gf were walking back she said I tipped too low for the service we received so here is a good review for you😊“

“So I’d recommend Coy B Que but I was disappointed in my order today. I always get the tips sandwich. I was disappointed in the presentation this time. Usually the tips are chopped in a uniform manner and that’s how I like to enjoy them. This time it was just the tip meat pulled and I couldn’t tell if it was tip or not. My husband confirmed it was tip but just ripped apart. We didn’t care for that at all.“

“I eat here often bbq tips are fire, chili 🔥and the potato salad is off the chain. Go find out for yourself. You get your money worth“

“Yes the food was great and I will be back thank you.“

“We love going to Bandanas! Always friendly service, and great food 👍“
