Don't let the vacuum-sealed bags fool you into thinking this is low-brow BBQ — no, this is legit. All of their pulled pork comes from the shoulder cut, is smoked with hickory, maple, and cherry wood, and is hand-pulled. It's fantastic stuff. Then everything is vacuum-sealed and ready for you to just simply reheat when you're ready to serve it up.
I brought our cycling club there for a quick bite to eat before heading off to a brewery, and the owners were very accommodating, friendly, and even took the time to give us a brief tour of their facilities. I'll definitely be back for some packaged up ribs and pulled pork.
This is a fantastic BBQ place and well worth the stop.
I have had the pleasure of traveling all over the US and I have had BBQ from many different regions; Riffs is some of the best BBQ I've ever had and for sure the best BBQ in Minnesota. Nothing comes close to Riffs in Minnesota.
This place is kinda like a microbrew so you can get a tour of the place if you want.
The owner is a very friendly and chatty guy. He spent about 15min with us explaining why Riffs opened in Minnesota and why his BBQ is so freaking good.
A+.
Stopped in here today at lunch with a co worker. The guy who helped us was awesome. It was my 2nd time here but my co worker wasn't sure what to think. Microwaved bbq in vacuum bags. But we each had a pulled pork sandwich and 4 ribs and a pack of meat candy. Just as I remembered it was amazingly good. My buddy was super impressed. He talked about it the rest of the day. I told my wife I went here from lunch and her first question was did you buy some for home. I had to run back after work and buy a case of pulled pork for home and meat candy. Really good food. I highly recommend it.
We popped by for a quick lunch on our way to a nearby brewery and weren't sure what to expect. At first, we were surprised that it wasn't a full-service restaurant, but once we tried the food we were impressed. The staff was very friendly, the dining area was adorable, and prices were great. We were sure to stop by afterward to buy packaged meat and bbq sauce to go!
First off, probably the nicest man I've met in a very long time greeted us at the entrance. The welcoming, open and fun owner gave us a tour and some bacon while he told us about the place. The food is amazing. The meal deal is quite the deal. We bought some sauce and a 4-pack of pork. This will be a monthly outing for us - then head to broken clock!
Delicious Hidden BBQ
Hidden in an unassuming industrial building is a "do it yourself" sandwhich place but it's a heck of a deal. The pulled pork is delicious with or without sauce. The Bacon is also delicious. You can eat in or take something home for dinner. You can even order bacon on Amazon!
I was introduced to Riff’s yesterday. Had an awesome $6 BBQ sandwich with chips and soft drink. One price for all. Delicious‼️
I was more than impressed with the flavor so opted to take some of their Meat Candy bacon on a stick home with me.
OH MY and WOW.
Woke up this morning to about 6 fresh inches of snow.
Popped the Raspberry Chipotle pack I. The microwave for 17 seconds. Two seconds longer than the instructions suggest.
I was immediately transported to the Minnesota State Fair in my mind. THESE are AMAZING. It really needs to make its way to the state fair. Truly. But at least it is available year round😁
So I couldn’t stop myself...
I popped in the Winter Spice flavor. Same amazing texture and totally different taste experience. Maybe my favorite of the two...
With the excuse of being mid review here I go...indulging in the third flavor I bought...........
Thai Curry. Wait a moment. 17 seconds in real time here (I’m liking the 17 seconds for some reason)
Well well, they hit it out of the ballpark on this one too❤️
Speaking of ballparks, Target Field NEEDS Riff’s products, maybe they already have them. I’ll be checking that out before I catch a Twins game.
All 3 of the flavors I just tried were pitch perfect. They appear to start with top grade bacon and from there make sure their seasoning for each flavor rocks your tastebuds.
These could be trouble! But just the type of trouble my mouth loves!
Best pulled pork i have ever had. The bbq sauces are also delicious. Would highly recommend. Owner is very friendly and happy to answer any questions you have. Cant wait to go back and try the ribs.
Good place for lunch and take home pork. Had a pick up next door and decided to check it out, glad I did. Hope to see this place expand into the Illinois area soon, for now I'll stop by when I'm in the area. You can park your semi on the street and get a pulled pork sandwich and take off.
I agree with the reviews below. very interesting place. I'll be going here and recomending this place for sure! Great food. Plus you can buy single serving packets for home. Check out the pictures it's well worth the stop!
