Robertson BBQ is off the beaten path and is in an older, beat up gasstation and honestly, I think…read morethis adds to the overall atmosphere and ambiance. The staff here was friendly and engaging and I can say that both the woman at the food station and the woman at the checkout were great. The customers were also friendly. This place had a great vibe. I ordered the chicken here and for my sides, I went with the potato wedges and onion rings. All were excellent. Prices were in line with what you would expect. The half chicken with two sides was somewhere around thirteen dollars and a large iced tea was I believe two dollars and fifty cents. Robertson BBQ is just about ten minutes off of the highway and it is definitely worth the detour. All in all, Robertson BBQ is a fantastic place for barbecue and I would definitely recommend it and I will give it five stars.

It is a short scenic detour off I-20 and well worth the time. The setting is an old gas station and the seating area is small. But the food is all the reviews say it is. Delicious! We had pulled pork sandwiches, baked beans, onion rings and homemade strawberry cake. All was very tasty. Others inour group said the ribs, chicken and grilled cheese were equally good. I like to find the out of the way 'mom & pop' spots on our travels. We give Robertsons BBQ 5 stars for food and 4 stars for seating capacity. Try it. You won't be disappointed.

The ribs were not quite ready, yet, so I did the Rib Tips and Wings. Such tasty morsels of pork! No sauce needed! And lots of them! Just the right amount of smoke and rub. Wings were smoky and tender and juicy! Was able to talk with Daniel for a few minutes. Now I know one of the best pit masters around!

If you're anywhere within driving distance, make the trip. And if you're not, well...it's still worth it. This spot lives up to the hype.

I was disappointed that you could not go inside because of their fear of covid, but, I was able to order and they brought it outside to me. I ordered a half rack of ribs, 1 pound of Brisket, and 1 pulled pork plate with potato salad and baked beans. Back home (South LA) we have a BBQ/Smokehouse we eat from and the brisket is the BEST Ive found so far! But... Glenns ribs are by FAR the BEST Ive had from a restaurant! The taste, the tenderness & I really like the bbq sauce! The brisket was ok. But like I said, once you taste one thats way better ...well... it is, what it is. I am not trying to sound rude or mean, just always love being honest. Someone else may think his is the BEST brisket and thats great! I hope they do! Brisket was $20. bucks a pound. I bought a pound plus a half of rack of ribs. (Ribs were $25. a slab) Now, the pulled pork? Excellent! Very well cooked & even better with the sauce! The baked beans... were the absolute BEST! I wished I had more! The potato salad, was really good too! All around, I give this place a 5 STAR and recommend them to anyone to try at least once! We will order again before we head back home, Im sure. Thank You Glenns BBQ! GREAT JOB! Great service! Very fast & VERY friendly workers!

The original remains the best. Nestled in an African American rural neighborhood south of town, the…read morevery journey along an old 2-land highway is a throwback to a different South. The building is classic roadhouse style--totally unpretentious with its sign and adverts plaster on the walls. The interior is the same, open seating and seats at the bar. The menu has broadened over the years, rather than just ribs, white bread and pudding, you can get a pork sandwich and chicken with a limited number of sides (the Mac and cheese is superior). The franchised Dreamlands are so different with a plethora of choices, more to the liking of the suburban south. If you like that, go for it. For my money, you can't beat the original. The ribs are charred perfectly and the service is old time South, friendly and helpful. You immediately feel at ease with everything and everyone around you. Take out is available--actually this place is just minutes off the highway. But a whole another world at the same time.
