Small portions for $33. Really, enough for two people, for sure not the 2-3 that they claim. They messed up our order and then got mad and ugly. We were polite, they were belligerent. Beware that the first menu viewing says the cost is $30. Later they charge an extra $3. if you want brisket or one of the other choices.

The BBQ is exceptional as the burnt ends and brisket melt in your mouth. They give you plenty of food to eat so go in hungry, including the best corn bread I have ever had.This was our first experience as we just moved into the area. I highly recommend this place as we plan on going back soon.

Very Busy BBQ! HUGE to go business as well. The dining room is huge though so you should be able to find a seat. The set up is a little nerve wracking because you have to read the menu real quick on the wall when you come in, pay and then they give you a number and bring it to you. After a few times I'm sure it won't be as scary. Lol. They have a couple cashiers, so the line goes pretty fast. Desserts are behind them in the cooler... So don't forget that! Banana or Pistachio pudding! I like the pulled pork the best & my spouse likes the ribs. Everything we've had is good tho the few times we went. They have 3 sauce bottles available. Fire. Sassy (sweet & savory our fav) & mild. All are great tho. Apple coleslaw is vinager based & i loved it. Could taste apple. My spouse didn't because they like the more mayo version. Cornbread is like cake consistency (my fav) but spouse likes more crumbly but we both appreciated the great corn flavor! Served with honey & butter. Kettle chips are bubbly and flavorful. Fried onion petals are great small size to put on the sandwhich if you want. I didn't know they had dill pickle chips and those come with the sandwich on the side. Mmmm. They do run out of brisket fast and there is a sign on the door if they run out of stuff they close. Everything is FRESH! Smells awesome in there and kept really clean due to a large working crew. They sell bottles/ cans behind counter to drink, but they do have soda, homemade lemonade, sweet & unsweetened tea at serve yourself fountains. I would say it's definitely in the top 5 BBQ places in Omaha. But then again there isn't a bad bbq in Omaha. Very reasonable prices. $40 for 2 adults with drinks & dessert not including tip. The suggested receipt tips are 2 to 7% probably because it's pay at the counter & get ur own tableware. We left 15% on a card & a couple dollars in the jar by the register. Squirreled away in a corner lot of several strip malls, across from Tanners Bar on the Northeast side of 156th & Maple. Watch for confused drivers everywhere. It's a weird residential entrance. Use GPS. Lovely area though.

This place is always busy. Overall, this is my favorite everyday restaurant in Omaha. Their big family platters are great for parties and game day.They do sometimes sell out early and close though.

I did not "taste" enough of hickory smoke on the ribs. Ribs had good smoke ring and were glazed perfectly. I prefer a more smoky flavor. Brisket and pulled pork were good. Beans and mashed potatoes were great. I did not like corn bread.
