Reviews for Backyard BBQ in Brookings, SD
Decent food. Was better but has gone down hill recently. Boneless wings used to be a good chunk of chicken. Now they are coated... in breading. DO NOT come here close to closing time. We came here on a Saturday. They close at 2:00PM and reopen at 4:00PM.Walked in at 1:55PM and they made us feel guilty for even walking through the door. We ordered our food to go. While theyprepared our food, we brought our 2 little girls (who can?t walk yet) back to our vehicle. When I tried to go back in the storethey had locked the doors behind us. Had to wait 10 minutes for them to realize we were standing outside waiting to go back infor our food. Most places that serve food do not rush their customers out the door. Read more
I eat here a lot and I only order ribs. The ribs are almost always pretty awesome. It's a dry rub with the perfect amount of of... toughness and tenderness imo. Always eat without sauce. They do have an amazing bourbon sauce which I'd say is the best I've hadin my travels. I just put the sauce with the fries. The fries are ok'ish. A bit too salty and a little greasy. Read more

Passing through Brooking and Came to Backyard BBQ for lunch with a coworker and it wasn?t great and it wasn?t bad, I had the... two meat, brisket and chicken with French fries. I would have preferred my brisket sliced but he didn?t give the option and itdidn?t specify that I was getting two sandwich?s (didn?t care for the bread. ???? Read more
I had the three meat combo, brisket and pulled pork sliders, three pork ribs with mac n cheese and cornbread. The pork was on... the dry side, the brisket had more of a pot roast flavor, and the ribs were a little tough and still had the silver skin on theback of them. All three types of meat seemed light on smoke, and if it weren't for the different BBQ sauces to amp up theflavor, the flavor of the meat was on the dull side. The mac n cheese had a kick, but the cheese sauce had the texture of chalkypowder cheese sauce. However, the cornbread was on point, sweat, moist, and tasted great. Overall, not bad for a small-town BBQjoint. Read more
Owner is extremely rude and demeaning to anyone he talks to. Doesn't have any patience or manners when having a conversation.
