If youre looking for REAL, authentic, home cooked, southern BBQ.. this is your stop! Such a cozy atmosphere, amazing BBQ, the banana pudding is insane, old school vibes.. its the move. This was a home town highlight of my road trip! Hope you get to stop in

After driving by Bad Bob's BBQ dozens of times, my husband and I decided to stop and have lunch! Long story short, if we lived there full-time we'd be regulars! In June, we visited with our cousins who were in town from Oklahoma and Virginia, they loved the food, too! We were in for lunch a couple of days ago and once again, we were very pleased with everything. I'm a big fan of the smoked, pulled chicken! That's been my go-to every visit. My husband loves the smoked ham and mushrooms. After realizing I hadn't tried it, I ordered a pulled pork slider. I hesitate saying this, but I was a bit disappointed. I didn't get any "smoke" taste from the pulled pork. I do notice the smoky flavor with the chicken. I let my husband try it and he agreed. The sweet tea is SO good and the ladies are a

Love, love, love me some Bad Bob's. Best food ever and they have homemade desserts to die for. The staff is just as sweet as the sweet tea. Never not a smiling friendly face they are always so kind and helpful.

Paid $20 after tip for overcooked fish, burnt hush puppies and noodles swimming in a light cheese flavored milk bath. Am not impressed nor happy. Asked for extra tartar and ranch. Did not receive.

My wife and I were in Murray, kentucky, for the day, and we thought we'd do some barbecue, being in Kentucky. We got online and found Bad Bob's BBQ. It's a small old restaurant, the food was good. I did not taste a lot of smoky flavor in the pulled pork. My wife and I both ordered pulled pork sandwiches, she ordered the Lil Hawg, and I ordered the Big Hawg. I ordered baked beans with mine, and of course, they're not baked beans. They were like most other barbecue restaurants, just beans out of a can. I spruced them up with some barbecue sauce and put a little meat in them, but my wife's curly fries were good, and the sandwiches were good. The pulled pork was moist and tender. My sandwich was pretty big. It filled me up. The service was good, very friendly and we enjoyed our time there. If
