Average BBQ place. Served as sandwiches, not just meats, which is in small text, so be warned. I just wanted meat and sides. Maybe a better clarification on the menu would be useful.

Small portions for the cost, both sides and meat. Meat was ok but all shredded for sandwich. Couldn't get a beer either as servers couldn't serve one. Tortilla soup was good but see picture, not even half way full bowl, apparently to get a full bowl it counts as 2 sides. Hear something new every day.

Loved the mustard bbq sauce though. Definitely try if you come here, Smell inside was great.

Good value for the money, but the ribs were dry and did not have much meat on them.

Been here a couple times, both pulled pork and pulled chicken were both and tasty and ample on the bun. Love their fries and very good baked beans. Several beers on tap.

Payton did an excellent job taking care of us. I had the brisket without the bun, out was great. The fresh cut fries were really good as well. My wife had the pulled pork sandwich with BBQ spaghetti which was a first for us. The mix of marinara and BBQ sauce along with the pulled pork was a great flavor together.

Pulled pork is ok….ribs are better…baked beans are great. Biggest problem I have is the oddball hours. I have to drive to Brookings and when they close at 3:30 on Saturday and not open on Sunday….???
Well… they missed $50 revenue from me.

Seems like they only want to serve lunch then. Ok… please put your hours up in a sign that can be read from the parking lot please…..and keep them.

Don’t give me lame excuses about posting hours on your website….you want to do that …go back to a food truck….you are brick and mortar…act like it.

Your potential revenue is going to other places in town…. Your neighbors gotta love you for it.

I met with old friends for lunch at the Backyard BBQ at opening time. The staff were polite the establishment was spotless. They had music playing and it was the right level of volume allowing conversation without having to raise your voice. The place filled up quickly showing its popularity with local residents.
The food was excellent having the pulled pork burger combo with hashbrowns and mac & cheese.
Highly recommended to anyone!

One of our favorite places in town to eat!Smoked meats are great! My son says they have the best chicken strips in town and my daughter loves the Mac and cheese! ?We use them for family gatherings and they supply plenty of delicious meats and buns!I personally love the catfishAndthe reason that I decided to write this review the wings!Historically, for me anyway, their wings have been… fine. Edible but I’ve had better. And usually just got them as a snack.Tonight I had some top tier wings! Crispy skin and tender meat! Perfectly cooked and good sized! I was impressed and very excited to go back and have MORE!

Passing through heading back to Canada and stopped in. Service was good. Place was super quiet yet Buffalo Wild Wings had a 30 minute wait.

We were one of only 2 tables. The place was clean, but lacked something. TV's were on, but it was so quiet in there that we didn't even feel comfortable talking to each
