7 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Choctaw

“Food is delicious. The service is amazing. This place is great.“

“BEST BBQ IN TOWN the brisket is DELICIOUS 10/10 rating!“

“The vortex has something that most restaurants these days don't have, heart. they go above and beyond to take care of you and you get generous portions. the food is not greasy like most BBQ places. if you haven't tried the morning vortex yet, go treat yourself to a nice breakfast. both sides of the restaurant have a strong family vibe. for the longest time, my family and I would drive clear to Shawnee for good BBQ since all of the chain places had the same uninspiring menu and didn't even want input on how to improve. now we only have to go 2 miles for some of the best BBQ I've ever had. the staff is always friendly and they even ask for suggestions. The Vortex is the kind of restaurant that if you walk away hungry, it's because you came when they were closed.“

“Ordered a slab of ribs okra and rolls. On 9/11/25 and was not happy. The ribs were tough and the rolls were a bit dry. Okra was cooked perfectly. Never had tough ribs from there before. Somebody dropped the ball.“

“Great food. Great staff. Great new location. I had lunch at Billy Sims BBQ in Joplin , MO and enjoyed wonderful brisket and was very impressed with the staff. Jennifer, Dontavious, and Brandon provided great service and a very clean environment. I will be back often.“
