At the last minute we decided to order food for Independence Day. We contacted Billy Sims on South Sheridan and they came through. We live in Sand Springs but always drive to the South Sheridan location in Tulsa. Say what you will this location is ALWAYS good and WAY better than the other Bill Sims locations. On short notice they put together food for around 30 people for our family get together. They were courteous , fast and professional. The food, as always, was excellent! Wouldn't go to any other location.

Food was cold and when I asked them to warm it up the employee put his hands on his head like it was a problem. I would have been happy with them just reheating it but the other employee said I'm sure he'll remake your order.

Cashier was unfriendly and didn't listen. Food was mediocre and mostly cold. Disappointed

Not true BBQ, there are so many small family owned BBQ Places that have way better food. Support Local.

I am posting an email I sent to ownership after my experience tonight.
I’m not a person that complains virtually ever but I couldn’t keep myself from letting you know of my experience today. First let me say I owned 5 hamburger restaurants in Tulsa in the 1980s and know that I would want to know if customers were not being taken care of to the highest level at all times during the hours your restaurant advertises it’s open for business. I called your location 3 times beginning at 8:20 to confirm the hours listed on the website and to place a go order. The phone wasn’t answered all 3 times. I decided to drive to the restaurant anyway. I arrived there at 8:35. The entire seating area had all chairs stacked on top of tables. Part of the lights were lowered. I entered and asked if the location was closed and was met by an employee with a mop who told me I could place a go order but couldn’t eat inside because they had cleaned the dining area. I asked the 2 employees out front why they start shutting down over a half hour before advertised closing time. When I placed my order it included 2 chopped brisket sandwiches. I told them my wife and I love their sandwiches especially because we have them toast the buns twice with the clarified butter. The person that was dressed like he may have been a manager told me they had cleaned and shut down the toaster. I said, isn’t the toaster a simple on/off switch and he didn’t even answer me. Instead he turned his back on me and walked back into the kitchen. I was blown away. I continued my order anyway and told the person helping me we like the sauces so please give me 6 mild and 2 hot and to charge me if necessary for the extra. I couldn’t order drinks because the tea containers were emptied and soda dispenser nozzles were cleaned and disassembled. When I got home I had 2 mild and 2 hot sauces so we were shorted 4 mild sauces. Surely this can’t be the way your restaurant employees are trained! When I owned and ran the 5 restaurants I had in the 1980s, we were ready to serve our entire menu until the final minute we advertised our operating hours. We were happy if groups came in during the final half hour we were open because that’s the only reason we were there, to sell our delicious food. That’s how we paid our employees and how I supported my wife and children. I went to college with Billy Sims and we know each other. My guess is he would be hugely disappointed with the way customers were taken care of by the establishment that carries his name. I don’t know what else to say. I will say this establishment is not the only restaurant that has instituted this way of operating. Owners/franchisees of restaurants that train their employees to work this way are only contributing to a generation of people that have little work ethic, take virtually no pride in their vocation and probably will not achieve any high level of success in a business sense. By the way, I called the other Billy Sims locations that close at 9pm and they all answered their phones. As a retired, successful business owner in Tulsa, I would suggest if you are the franchise owner of this location, you should do a reset on how you operate your business and retrain your employees in the old school art of customer service and providing fantastic food, consistently prepared day after day……and do it all until 9:00pm if 9:00pm is your advertised closing time.

The que was good, as was the sauce. The baked beans were outstanding, and the pulled pork with coleslaw sandwich was huge. Needed a better atmosphere.
Their general manager, Michael Philo, is a known rapist and has wittingly spread sihpylis to multiple people, including at least one person under the age of 18. Genuine scum of the Earth who makes me ashamed to share a species with him. Cannot believe they would hire him.

Stopped at the Joplin Mo Billy Sims at 12:45 for 1/2 of pound of sliced brisket. The they at the drive through was very rude. And informed me they had just done a big catering and had no sliced brisket. Isn’t that your business?
How does a place that’s main menu idea brisket and they are out? Other brisket place was happy to take my money.
