23 Best Barbeque Restaurants in Oklahoma City

“This is the best place for BBQ in OKC! Meats are consistently smoked to near perfection, flavorful and sauces are fantastic. If you like fried okra that’s crunchy, the okra here will not disappoint. They offer daily specials that keep us going several times a week. I hope this restaurant never closes down or leaves OKC.“

“*SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY* When we walked through the door we were LITERALLY greeted with a smile and a "Come on in" wave.My daughter picked up a meaty rib and it fell off the bone back onto her plate. ?The HONEY BBQ WINGS & brisket were juicy.This was a TREAT!My picky eaters said that we'll be back!“

“I am a DoorDash delivery driver, and I picked up an order from here for a customer. As soon as I walked in the door, I was greeted by a friendly and inviting smile. I was also offered a beverage while I waited on my delivery order. Five out of Five stars. They Also has the best sweet tea I’ve ever had in Oklahoma!“

“I enjoyed most of the food.. The nark on the brisket was a little too salty for my taste. The red beans and rice were tasty and very filling. The potato salad was a pleasant change from a lot of standard salads. The sauces were excellent. The meats were just meh for me in the end. The pulled pork was a little too stringy and like I mentioned the brisket bark was salty.“

“I chose to sit at the bar due to the rush crowd at dinner time. The bartender was great and really knew his stuff. Being from KC, we have tons of bbq options and this is a place I would definitely come back to. The meat was cooked perfectly!“

“My husband and I took our daughter here for her birthday dinner, and the food was good, but the service was horrible, the waitress that we had, just checked on us once and we needed more ranch dressing and refills..it seems as if you're working for good tips, then you need to give great customer service and make sure that your guests are getting everything that they need, she's lucky that I even tiped her, from the service that we received. This generation isn't what is was, when I was growing up. Smh.“

“Fast food service. People are helpful when asked questions about the menu items. Food was tasty and smokey! Loved every bite! Sliced brisket and white meat chicken, i recommend the 2 meat plate. I had coleslaw and baked beans. Yummy! Ribs fall off the bone! Super delicious! Potato salad, cornbread very delicious also. No one was sitting inside the restaurant when we ate but people continued coming in and out and making line. 5/5“

“One of my favorite korean bbq place in okc! I love the selection of items they have on the menu. The servers every time I come are always so friendly and treat me well. I always have a good experience. The boss on the other hand was always checking up on our tables and sometimes even cooks for us which is nice. He was very sweet. You guys need to try this place whenever you have the chance. You will never be disappointed !!“

“6/24. Dinner with co-workers from out of town. Food was delicious. Chicken a little dry, everything else on mix plate was tasty! Lots of ban chan. Owner even brought out a couple of other things for us to try and extra jap chae for free! Can't beat that! I will definitely go back!7 years ago: This whole in the wall is making some tasty food! Went there for lunch on a Saturday around 1230. My friend got the mixed plate - teriyaki chicken, bulgogi and spicy pork bulgogi. I had the pork bulgogi. Each plate came sizzling with the meat on a bed of onion slices and a bowl of rice. For banchan, there were 4 dishes - Kim chee, cabbage, sprouts and zucchini. I really enjoyed the meal and will definitely go back. And they sell their Kim chee and other sides in the store. The back right corner of the store has a couple of refrigerator cases.“

“My wife and I had another wonderful meal at Iron Star this afternoon. Service was prompt and food was great. This is still one of the best restaurants in town for barbecue. Quiet atmosphere, very good sides, and ribs and turkey today. All perfectly done.“

“The food was amazing! I got a couple baskets of wings and both flavors (Honey Lemon Pepper and Sweet n Spicy) were bomb. Even the unsauced parts were very well seasoned.The wife got the Mac N Cheese stuffed Turley Leg and it was really good. 10/10 recommend. Especially on Tuesday when the Wings and Fish baskets are $7.The wife also said the bathroom was "Clean, Clean."“

“Very good food when they cook your steak right the first time. The second steak was perfect, and I enjoyed it. It goes to show that not everyone has the same idea of what a medium rare steak is supposed to be. But when I mentioned that my steak was medium well, they quickly replaced it with a medium rare steak and they gave me fresh sides with the new steak. That is good service. My only concern is that the size of the steak was fairly small for what I cost.“

“Came for dinner today, and as always it tasted amazing. Haven't been to this location before, so I don't know how long the self order kiosk and new menu options have been there, but the staff seemed rather confused about it all and the way orders were made seemed to be really inefficient, especially compared to how it usually is at the locations I've gone to.Husband and I ordered 2 combo bops and a k dog at the self order kiosk, and it took almost 30 minutes for them to finish the order, even though it wasn't very busy. I thought it mightve been the k dog slowing things down, but they finally finished the cups and the ones at the front didn't even realize the k dog was part of the order, even though they have 2 different order screens to reference. The guy in the kitchen still knew, but it took another 5 minutes for the k dog to finish and be brought out. While we were waiting for our food, 4 groups of people ordered and received their food. Every few minutes, the employees up top would gather around the order screen as they were making something and stare at it, looking really confused as they asked each other questions. With how often that happened, im not sure they were all properly trained. It would make more sense if the order screens and self order kiosk were brand new and no one was entirely sure how to work it.“

“The prices of their meals are getting high, so I don't come as often as I used to, but the food has never disappointed! I could eat their rolls every day, so maybe it's a good thing I can't come as often as I'd like to. ? They're always SO busy, but definitely worth the wait!Vegetarian options: There aren't any besides salad with no meat/cheese. Anything fried has dairy in it, and even their green beans have meat.Parking: This place is always packed. There are a lot of places to park, but when they're busy, expect to park across the street.“

“We had a party of 7 for a birthday celebration on a Sunday at 5 pm and didn't have to wait long to be seated. I do wish we had been seated at a table instead of a booth with a chair at the end, but we made it work. The food was good as well as our waiter kept us supplied with rolls and butter!“

“I heard about this restaurant on Facebook & it did not disappoint! The fish was crispy with good flavor including the homemade hot sauce, the fries were seasoned well but not overly, & the baked beans were really good! I love the food so much that I order 2 more meals to take home. The atmosphere was pretty chill too! Good food & good vibes, I'll definitely be back!“

“The bbq is pretty good, this is about my 5th time going i always forget to take pictures but i got a few this time, this Earls is better then Earl's on Western, as a matter of fact i only go to this Earl's since they've opened.. service is good, food is good, location is good, nice clean restaurant!Parking: Good parkingKid-friendliness: Kids love itWheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“We were welcomed by JT and helped with our order. We both had the Big Earl and a side of half okra and half fries. The food was amazing. Service was out of this world, and we will be back the next time we come to OKC. We were stuffed when we left and had enough for a late night snack at the hotel.“

“Blazing Jay was so GOOD! I love the plating of the food! It is TO GO so you should order in advance or you will have to sit in your vehicle to order which was fine with me! Customer service was great! & the food was bomb! The prices and deals were also SUPER reasonable ! Me and my boyfriend got their soul food bowl with fried chicken & fried catfish! It was so good! Highly recommend! THANKS AGAIN GUYS I WILL BE BACK!“

“OH MY GOODNESS! BEST BBQ I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE! WHEN I PASS AWAY I WANT TO BE BURIED WITH SWADLEYS BBQ SAUCE!!!!!! Everything was amazing…..literally everything. You will not be disappointed. The meat was so juicy, the sweet beans were incredible, the brisket was immaculate, the peach cobbler with ice cream was fantastic. This is by far my favorite BBQ place I’ve ever been too. My boyfriend really liked it too and he is a picker eater. I RATE THIS PLACE 100 GOLD STARS!!!!“

“Since my husband took me for my first visit the two of us are still recommending this place to everyone. The food is great! The prices are reasonable! Everyone that works there is nice and welcoming and patient when answering your questions. Haven't been in awhile I can't wait to go back to this place it hasn't disappointed me and I bet it won't disappoint anyone else who visits!!“

“Absolutely amazing customer service. First time in a while since we had Rudy's. The woman at the register was extremely nice and let us try some of the meat. We ended up getting the moist brisket because she let us try it. I absolutely recommend trying the moist brisket. It's fatty and full of flavor and doesn't require dousing it in sauce to taste good.“

“I dread going to The Collective, so thankfully this place was worth it. I had the Sub-Saharan ribs meal and it was excellent. The meal was made hot and fresh. The ribs were flavorful and had a light crispiness to them. The Jollof rice was delicious-tad oily though. I was not fond of the fries, weren't crispy and over-seasoned. To say the least, I would come back.“
