Quality BBQ joint on the outskirts of Glasgow - dead easy to access if driving on a school day. Verrrry tasty (albeit slightly dry) and impressively tall burgers and ribs that fall off the bone. Food could have been warmer when served to us but we nevertheless enjoyed it immensely.

What a meal. We went at lunch time on a Saturday and even thought it's not a big place we managed to get a table straight away. I had the smoke stack burger which was massive. The burger was thick and juicy, and cooked well. Got some BBQ Brisket as a side and it was immense. The cajun fries were piled high on my plate and very well seasoned. I had no chance of finishing the meal given the size of the portions. For the size and quality of the food the prices were very reasonable. Can't recommend this place enough. If you like BBQ I'm not sure there's a better place to go in Glasgow.

Great burger, but on the pricey end 8/10 A customisable burger experience, though the menu could be clearer on what counts as extras. The smashed patties and caramelised onions were standout, but the burger was slightly dry. Loved the sweet buns and crispy Cajun and garlic fries. Note: The small space fills with kitchen odours and parking is tough. Total was 40, a bit pricey due to unexpected topping charges. Worth a visit if nearby and craving a solid burger. Not great for parking if you’re not in the area.

Brilliant quality bbq style food great old skool rustic vibes and very friendly staff. It is bbq joint style service so collecting your own food from the counter is normal. Our bill came to around 40 but for the quality and price of beef brisk it was way better than any burger. Place was looked after and made to feel really festive with extra effort put into decorations.

We loved this place. Walk-in off the street, we were looking for some grub before having a few jars later, and we hit the jack pot! Fantastic value for the quality. Big FAT burgers, LOADS of fries. Y E S !!!! A think a few more beer choices would be good, and, a little more atmosphere, but I can't complain really.

Absolutely banging. Great size of portions. I got the chicken burger and my partner got the Columbia burger. We both enjoyed our burgers, but slight issue with mine was that I found a bone. This is understandable, but I was glad to not break my teeth . The fries were lush too. Very generous portions of fries. …

Whilst looking up BBQ shacks in Glasgow, I stumbled on this place. Now first up, you can only make reservations if you have a party of 10 or more, if not you need to turn up and take a chance. Table turn around time is fast so you should not wait more than 15 minutes (fingers crossed). Free parking outside from 6:30pm. Looking at the menu there is a fair choice of food however it is a little burger top heavy, but as I said there is a lot of BBQ choices. The food is ordered via an online app (squared up) and is delivered canteen style on metal trays. We ordered way too much for two people, but in my defence we (a) wanted to try a bit of everything and (b) we believed that portion sizes might be small. I was so wrong! I ordered the brisket, ribs, burger with fries for myself. We also ordered more ribs, BBQ wings and Mac & Cheese. The ribs meat fell off the bone and were smoked/seasoned perfectly, same with the brisket, not only was the meat juicy and moist, but the portion size was perfect. The burger was clearly handmade and was cooked perfectly. I was told the wings were also amazing and the Mac & Cheese was great. The only comment I would say is the BBQ Wings did have a little too much sauce on them for my personal taste, that was just me personally. A couple of things, seating is a little cramped, not a big thing, but could be an issue if you were disabled or in a chair. The restaurant is styled to be a USA BBQ shack and most of the respects it pulls it off, however playing UK dance music rather than the expected music choice (blue grass country etc.). The surrounding/food did not marry with the music. Lastly it is a shame, not a criticism, that the choice of sauces available was very limited to BBQ. If some more choices from USA regions were available this would definitely add to the experience. Other than that, food was very reasonably priced and served promptly even though they were busy. Thank you for a lovely evening and great food.

Recent trip to Glasgow I was hankering for some proper BBQ food, apparently that's a bit of an ask. Luckily, Dennistoun came to the rescue. I read some of the reviews and one said the place looked run down and you didn't get much for the price. My counter argument is the place has character, yeah it looks old but there's such a great atmosphere as a result. Portion wise, I paid 12 for a Brisket Bun which was a substantial tower of meat, more chips than you'd get at most places that do an extra large. Taste wise, it was absolutely superb. I don't normally get over the top with stuff like this but this was a top 3 BBQ spot for me including one I visited in Texas. You can tell there is a real passion in the food. I had both the Mustard Dip and the BBQ sauce with the pulled pork, both were amazing. The mustard dip was similar to a Louisiana BBQ mustard that Reds used to sell but stopped doing for some reason and the BBQ one was up there with Sweet Baby Rays. Essentially if you're in Glasgow and you're partial to BBQ food, do yourself a favour and visit. Parking is on street but there are generally a good few spaces.
