Start off by saying their brisket is phenomenal. Secondly, they have breakfast down If you get a chance make sure you get a C biscuit AMAZING. Have been a regular for a while and it’s always been delicious. Quality is always on point. The portions are always plentiful my go to spot here. Thanks Canyon Joes

I love bbq and always go out of my way to find the real deal q when im traveling. This place is on point as it gets. The best bbq ive found traveling outside of Texas. No need to look anywhere else in Lincoln or Omaha.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Kevin Bahr · Aug 2025

Very good food. Probably one of if not the best bbq in the Lincoln area. Mac & cheese was very good. The pork belly was tender with good flavor. Food tastes pretty fresh. Staff was very friendly and happy. I would consider this one of the better “fast food” restaurant in Lincoln. I enjoy eating here. I would recommend stopping by and trying it out. I will be eating here again

We got the "Three Meat Plate" with two sides, and everything was excellent! We especially loved the cornbread casserole. Everyone working here was super friendly. We'll definitely be back!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Alfredo OMG · Feb 2026

Atmosphere was solid very nice inside made me feel welcomed service was very nice and speedy letting my know up front what there is and isn’t. However I had a problem with my order the burnt ends were very tough and some were a bit dry bbq sauce did help however and I’d say that’s one of the best things there I got it Togo since I was gonna head to Omaha and ate it fresh in my car while heading there and it was a shock how tough they were considering burnt ends are obviously supposed to be tender and succulent Mac and cheese as well was a bit underwhelming seemed under seasoned and the cheese sauce didn’t really taste like cheese tastes more like a simple béchamel I really wanted to love this but I need to be honest it wasn’t good enough
