Eager Beaver BBQ

It maybe a small place but the flavor here is HUGE. This small place might look like an unassuming bait shack or similar near the river, but what you’ll find inside is some simple tables with amazing food. Brisket you can cut with a plastic fork? Yes please! The pulled pork was also a cut above. It’s unpretentious and all about quantity BBQ. They also offer ordering ahead, so you can pick up food to go. I highly recommend and we will be back.

All I can say is my tummy was happy!!! The brisket was perfect!! It really was one of the best I've ever had!! Everyone was friendly and evening we ordered and ate was delicious. We wanted to but didn't try the dessert. Maybe next time 😉😉

They have the best BBQ in Savanna, Illinois. The food is so good. They put a lot of time and effort into their cooking. The ribs & pulled pork are tender and flavorful. They actually grill their meats so it has a delicious smoked flavor. The Mac & cheese is cooked great! It is buttery, cheesy. The noodles are aldente. The baked beans are homemade with bacon in them. The corn bread is also amazing. The cornbread was warm, fluffy & soft. They put honey butter on the corn bread. The corn bread melts in your mouth. The customer service is excellent. They are very kind and welcoming. They also sell shaved ice with all sorts of flavors to choose from. I highly recommend Eager Beaver BBQ.

It was a little hard to find but so absolutely worth it. The food was delicious, the best bbq my bestie and I have had. Their brisket Mac n cheese was fireeee. We got shirts as well to make sure we support them. Not only was the food amazing but so were they. They were so kind and sweet. We just love the name, it’s hilarious. You can tell they enjoy what they do and you can taste the love as well as feel it inside the restaurant. It felt like home. We will deff be back and bring some visitors. Team eager beaver

Amazing operation going on here. Crossing the train tracks and going through the fence you almost feel like you’re going somewhere you’re not allowed…But once you step inside you feel right at home. Great service and conversation. Watched them chop wood for the smoker. You can see all the ingredients behind the counter. No bs in that kitchen. Food was amazing. The ribs were bone gnawing good. The whole damn thing burger was hot and juicy. The cornbread and butter was divine. The guys running that kitchen deserve the world. Sweet hearts serving fabulous food. Will be back !
