| - All things considered this is my favorite BBQ place in town and in the past I went on a rampage looking for bbq in vegas and would like to think I have tried almost all. I am not a huge fan of chains but this place serves good BBQ and it's always consistent. What I love about the place is the BBQ platters for 2 or 4. It's an upside down garbage can lid with chicken, ribs, pork... I think you get to pick 3 or 4 meats, plus a couple sides and some cornbread. Its like 25 bucks for 2 and it's plenty of food and I am a big eater. Compared to other places it's a deal.
Now it's not the greatest championship bbq but it is still pretty tasty, the meat is always tender, has a good mild smoke, and is very flavorful. Also some places do some meats good and others not so much, all there selections are good by me. They have like 5 sauces that are all good and the sides are solid. I really like luciles bbq too but the combo I order for myself is 26 bucks so this place is half the price and comparable and consistent, I have had some charred up racks of ribs at luciles.
Break down of vegas BBQ, my opinion of course
Luciles - Delicious, probably the most delicious in vegas, but pricey. Great atmosphere, great sauce, great meat, and great sides. They serve you biscuits before that are awesome. Have had some meals there better than others.
TC's - OK overall, light smoke, ribs not the most tender, sides nothing special, pulled pork is good, raised the prices but still not bad
RUB - Ate it once, expensive and not memorable. Wasn't terrible though
K's - Worst I have had in vegas, the only thing more tasteless than the meat is the sauce.
Cooks - In the ghetto, sweet sauce, decent BBQ, bring a gun
CJs - I guess its texas BBQ, counter serviceand pricey for what you get. Plain BBQ with thin sauce, didn't get it.
Memphis - Good ribs, mushy pulled pork, pricey I think, good flavor.
Adams - Had a pork sandwich, was dry and the sauce didn't help much. That's all I remember.
I still need to try buzz, I heard it's good.
