Came here for a visit for a "snack" to hold me over until dinner. I went with two meats: ribs and brisket... the brisket was dry and I almost thought it was pulled pork. The ribs were really good.. and the spicy sauce on the side was phenomenal!
The meat on the ribs was literally falling off the bone. literally. Just poked at it with a fork for most of it instead of using my hands because it was just that tender! The staff were also fantastic. Not sure if he was the manager on duty or what, but he was very friendly, energetic, and checked up on us while we ate to make sure all was well. Definitely recommend!
The service was top notch, the food was amazing, and we came in an hour before close. It was slow, but the staff was so fun and up beat. Wish there was more staff like them around, you don’t see people happy to be at work anymore.
Outstanding "Oklahoma" style BBQ restaurant. I was pleasantly surprised at the exceptional tenderness & flavor of their BBQ. A big plus was their friendly staff. We had the Pull Pork Sandwich with baked potato plus baked beans & the Sunday lunch special ½ lb. Ribs with macaroni & cheese plus fried okra. Special shout-out for the Fried Okra as they said it was "made with LOVE" & it was delicious.
Of all the bbq options in town, Bird Dog is my favorite! They have delicious meat that is moist and wonderfully smoked. The flavor isn't overtly salty and their dedication to quality is in every bite. I'm in love with smoke rings and sloppy sauce though so I might be biased. 😋😋😋😋😋
Oh man, probably one of the best BBQ joints in town. Mac n cheese is to die for, the are not shy with the pickles, the pulled pork was moist, brisket was juicy, the baked potatoes are out of this world. I need an IV of their BBQ sauce!! And the service was unbelievably hospitable and kind and personable. Can't wait to come down and be there for one of the events!!
Out of all the locations this one seems to have the freshest food. The staff is amazing while it is a little hard to find it definitely is a hidden gem. The lunch specials run 7 days a week giving you a different option every day. As a point the bbq is amazing. The staff is amazing.
As a fellow bbq man myself, I have to give credit. This place is almost as good as mine. I recommend if you're in the Springs. Good sauce and ribs.
Such good food I will never understand why this place isn't busy AF but perhaps I'll savor the one on one friendly customer service and large portions of food out hot and fast by gatekeeping for a bit longer. Stop going to Dickeys and stop here, you will not regret it.
I do like my barbecue, and Bird Dog came through with flying colors. First time in, will definitely be in my rotation.
