    Double Bacon Cheeseburger and Onion Rings
    Ben B.

    If I wasn't planning to go here for lunch, I'd never knew it existed. BackRoadZ seems to intentionally hide itself from public view. We pulled in and parked in the lot, which was empty except for what I assume was an employee's pickup truck in the back corner. The menu has a typical collection of hamburgers and chicken (burgers?), fries, and onion rings. I was hoping for something novel or fun, but it was all quite run-of-the-mill. For example, their "spicy" burger uses pepper-Jack instead of American cheese - craaaazy! There isn't any punctuation in the descriptions of each item, so plan to use your imagination. Service was helpful and friendly - probably the highlight of our visit. We ordered and sat in the patio area (the only seating available) to eat. The burgers were okay. I appreciate that they're not pre-formed frozen patties like most places with 30 miles of here. That said, I regret getting a double-patty because the burger was over-cooked, under-seasoned (which is saying a lot because I prefer less salt on most things), and it was rather dry despite the generous mayo and ketchup. The breading on my onion rigs refused to stay on, so I did my best to gather the brokenness in my fingers to eat them. Nothing was gross, but nothing was really good either. I'd stop again if starving while passing through the area, but I wouldn't plan to return.

    The building is a mobile home painted green. The food was a bit pricey. I had a cheeseburger and fries. The burger meat could use a bit of seasoning. All the ingredients were fresh I was just hoping for a bit more seasoning. The fries were perfect. And the service was spectacular! I loved the covered patio allowing for no one to get rained on while ordering or eating, especial if you can't go inside, which you can't.

    View from the road. Easy to get in back and park.

    A local mentioned this "hole in the wall" burger joint. Ohhh my. Easily worth a side trip! Simply awesome burgers, crinkle cut fries, and Tillamook Ice Cream shakes and treats. I had a regular burger (w/ grilled onions and xtra pickles) combo, and upgraded to a 16oz (Marion Berry!) shake. My sweetie had the Swiss mushroom bacon burger. Yuuuuuummmmmm! Quick, friendly service, accurate order fulfillment. BTW the bag of fries was surprisingly humongous. This Fry Fiend was quite happy :)

    Great atmosphere, good food. Enjoyed our visit. We had good conversations with other clientele that also seemed to be quite happy.

    Good food, cost is a little high but it is everywhere. No inside seating so it's on the deck or in the car. Good milkshakes and cones.

    Boss Hogg's is an interesting place. I came here to see a band play, and Boss Hogg's has a real…read morecountry feel to it. Since I was a party of one, I was seated at the back of the restaurant, which made my experience seem like I was watching people watching a band, which was disappointing. I asked if I could sit closer to the band, and was denied "in case a bigger party comes in". I get it, but it was frustrating to see a four-top directly in front of the stage remain empty all night long. While the BBQ is competent, it's nothing special. What is impressive, though, is that unlike literally every other BBQ restaurant I've ever been to, the more meats you get in your sampler, the portion size isn't decreased. The sampler platter gives you a FULL portion of everything offered, making it a veritable bargain, and enough food to feed two abnormally hungry adults. It was also impressive to observer pretty much everybody in attendance greeting everybody else personally. It seemed that everybody there knew everybody else, and that they were all regulars. There is also ample room for dancing, if you're into that sort of thing, as well as a bar area ("the pigpen") in which children ("piglets") are not permitted. The parking lot is a small gravel lot, with unmarked parking spaces, and street parking is limited.

    We stopped here on a road trip, just a few minutes off the I-5. The greeting was friendly, the…read moreplace was clean, and the atmosphere was super relaxed. Everything I tried was delicious. My least favorite meat was the brisket, as it had some pretty big chunks of inedible fat. Other than that, I was quite pleased, and very full. There is an additional fee for not paying with cash.

We put our order in at the counter and had our sandwiches about 7 minutes later. Pretty quick for all the work he had to do. I had the Santa Maria. It was a nice tri-tip with garlic butter. The variety of sauces at the table helped add a personalized flavor. The bun was soft and fresh, and this sandwich was bigger than I was expecting. I got a side of Mac and cheese, it was creamy goodness! Good service, good food!

I…read moreordered the two meats/two sides dinner, choosing brisket and pulled pork with potato salad and coleslaw. The meats were great, the coleslaw was fantastic, but the potato salad was uninspiring. Brisket had a great bark on it but was very moist inside with an excellent smoky flavor. The pulled pork was amazing as well but could have had a little more care getting the chunks of fat out. They had plenty of sauces available--they bring you a basket with four different flavors in extra large bottles. Apply liberally! I loved the horseradish in their coleslaw. I've never seen that done before but it's my new favorite. I'll definitely be trying to replicate that at home. My biggest disappointment was the potato salad. It seemed like it was just scooped from a Reser's tub. Maybe not, I don't know if they make it in house, but that's what it reminded me of. I'm giving four stars instead of five because despite being the only person in the restaurant, it wasn't very clean. I had to wipe down my table and there was a big chunk of brisket lying on the floor. I was also pretty unimpressed with the constant foul language coming from the kitchen staff. I realize I'm in the minority on this but I still believe in keeping the atmosphere of a public place professional and family appropriate. So, all in all, top-notch food with one star off for cleanliness and atmosphere. I would definitely pick up here again but might not eat in, depending on the situation. If you enjoy bbq, give it a try!
