I have traveled the country and the world while serving in the military. I truly believe that they serve the best BAR-B-Q on the planet. The rib tips are out of this world.

I grew up on E&L they got good food. My only complaint is that you never know when they'll actually be open or not the hours listed online aren't they actual hours they kinda just be closed when they feel like closing. Drove across town to get it for lunch and they were closed.

[F07Jun2024 ~17:18 review] Just placed my order—E&L’s ALWAYs well worth ANY wait‼️❤️😋 (Ace Bolt & Screw to get new metal lock nuts for the 917 flail mower was today’s excuse to stop 😉.) [old “2 years ago” review on F07Jun2024 ~17:18] Wear a mask. The long line wait is well WORTH IT!! Ubon’s and E & L. Go. ’Nuff said. 😀😎

It’s EL’s kind a staple for me. The best thing by far to me is their hot link sausages. These are special! They are better than some at a multi million dollar business out in Texas…I just ate at with a couple plate for two avg 100.00 plus. Anyways , I like EL BBQ, they keep a security guard on duty. He’s a Gen xer or boomer. The rib tips are also very good.

Now if you came to the comments to see if the food was good, I'm just going to say yes. it's good but I will say the reason why I gave it a three is because of the atmosphere or the area. The building is probably one of the nastiest building I've ever gotten food from. They have booths but they look really old and some have holes in them The building literally looks like an abandoned building on the inside. The wait is also always super long. I went recently but it's been years since I've been and if memory serves me right, the wait has always been extremely long. I believe it always takes over and out but it could be the times we usually choose to pick up food. I went on a Saturday around 5:00 p.m. The way it may be shorter on some days but this time it was about hour and a half. Also t
