Bully's makes the most amazing smoked meats that really don't even need the BBQ sauces for flavor! Their fries are delicious too. The wait for those is a bit longer because they only fry them once they're ordered. All in all, the best down home cooking you can get in this area. The seating is plentiful and some of it is outdoor. Service is great too. We love it! Warning: Do not attempt to enjoy Bully's if you're on a strict diet. You'll blow it! read more

This is a really great bbq place for some high quality authentic hot dogs, fries, and burgers. Everything is basically jumbo size. One fry from bully's is practically equivalent to 20 mcdonald fries. The hot dogs are bigger than a wendy's burger. I always leave this place full. But I am giving this place 3 stars because the wait is insanely long. In fact, it has the longest wait time of any bbq I have ever visited. For the past two visits in a row, I waited over an hour, when on average most restaurant waiting times are 40 minutes max. I could be wrong, but it seems like none of the servers or chefs are in a rush, and they will make your food when they feel like it. I'm not impatient, but Bully's needs to bring up their waiting times up to a competitive, commertcial level. Food = great. Service = could be better. read more

Love the smokers outside and we enjoyed the fall off the bone ribs, made it too easy to eat. The burgoo was mild and chocked full of meat. Onion rings were okay, not skinny or fat and not in-house made. Lots of good desserts on the counter, and que place must have banana pudding and they do. Feels out of the way, but the drive is nice along the river. Good eating, food could have been a tick hotter, sauces were good and you get put on the spot to pick one when ordering at the counter. read more

The food was really good. I didn't necessarily like the gumbo but everything else was delicious. The ribs fell right off the bone & the baked beans taste like they came directly off the smoker as well. The owner was at the register and she was very friendly and welcoming to us. Overall I would def make the ride a bit further out to eat here again. read more

I don't even know where to begin. Ambiance 11/10. This is the perfect Barbeque place. This place owned by Robert, run by Robert and loved by Robert. His passion for excellent Barbeque food shows all the way through. Smokers are self built. The man was outside when we came in, attending to the smokers and cooking. I had the Brisket Sandwich. I always start with the brisket. I'll be back to try other meats in the near future. The brisket was good. I had only 3 nice slices for the sandwich. I wish I had more. Some brisket was moist while the other was of a different part of the brisket. The variety was nice. With the sandwich plate, you get 2 sides. Mac n Cheese was good. Salt and pepper to your taste. The beans were excellent. With a nice bourbon sauce, not too heavy on salt, sugar or bourbon, just a nice well made pounded bourbon beans. Again, salt to your liking. I think it is best to not over salt your food and allow those enjoying it to salt to their liking. This way the real flavor has a chance and not overpowered or dependent on the additions. As the summer approaches and later spring arrives, eating here outside with good food and the real deal....... I look forward to the pulled pork, ribs. They even have frog legs. Oh my. read more

Just left Bully's, on a Thursday night. Lots of people coming out tonight for the barbecue. It is in a unique location down hwy 42 in the Skylight area. So for the most part, destination dining and a local favorite amongst the Oldham County crowd. Good news, bad news. We ordered a half slab of ribs, a pound of pulled pork, slaw and green beans, plus a couple of cokes. First problem was the coke was out of co2. So we returned the cokes we had and asked for fresh once the co2 was filled. Waited a while. Went back to the counter to find our cokes. Still flat. Finally we switched to two bottled cokes. Our food came. Pulled pork was good, as was the sides. However, the slab was terrible. Just terrible. The plate was presented as what looked like a skeleton of bones. Meat was already off on the plate. Dry as a bone. Tasteless. Very disappointing. Didn't make a big deal of it given our experience with the drinks. When asking for a Togo box for pork mentioned to one of the staff about the condition of the slab and how awful it was. "I'll let them know". I hope you do. read more

Best greens I've ever had! Fish sandwich is huge and exceptionally good Bbq is fabulous! read more

Love the food, the brisket had a lot of flavor, the mushrooms were excellent as we're the onion rings. Dog friendly, lots of seating outside. They also have some specials they write on the chalkboard before entering to place your order. The smell from the smokers is aromatic! Service was fast. They give you a pager when you give your order. read more

The atmosphere is calming, relaxing, and fun. The servers and service is top-notch. You order your food and they will bring it to your table. Outside seating is wonderful. The food is fantastic. I go every week. I recommend to everyone try it once and you're gonna love it. I don't have a problem with anything that I have ordered. It has all been great. read more

Bully Barbeque - Potatoes .... fully loaded and cheese only. - Barbeque Near Me - Goshen, Kentucky

This place used to be great. The last two times I got the baby back ribs, they were so dry I could put a fork in them. The ribs used to be wrapped in plastic wrap to hold moisture. Not anymore. Both times were carryout and I wasn't driving back out there to get more. Both times the food went in the garbage. Unfortunately, I'm not going back. read more

Such friendly people and the food... I would swear my Gran'ma made it! I was too full to eat dessert, but I took a piece of the Blueberry Lemon Cake home. Heavenly! read more

Undoubtedly, the best BBQ in Oldham & Jefferson County, Kentucky, offering homemade BBQ, sides, and desserts that are truly exceptional. The sweet Bourbon BBQ sauce is the best I've ever had anywhere. The lady who is the cook & makes the desserts is so friendly and nice. The Ambiance is casual out in the country surrounded by horse farms. read more

My parents have gone there for years and raved about it. I finally got to try bully barbecue I tried the brisket, chicken, and burnt ends. All were amazing my favorite being the brisket. read more

I was drawn to this establishment by the aroma and smokers out in the lot! I ordered 3-4 items for take out. It took longer for me to get my food than I thought, but then there were a couple of large take out orders already in the works. The lady out front was very sociable, and the food was great. Definitely worth a repeat visit. read more

Food is great and serving sizes are usually enough for 2 meals. I eat there but order to go so they don't need two sets of plates, etc. nice people too. read more

Unfortunately no pictures. The meat in the burgers were hard. Corn bread was dry and had no taste,all the ribs and chicken wings were overdone and dried out. Lacking seasoning. Everything was just horrible. Would give 0 stars if I could on food. It's a cool atmosphere. There's nice people,a cool place. Just horrible food read more

Been there twice, food is good but service sucks to put it nicely. We were there for and hour and 30 minutes before getting a hamburger fries and a half slab of ribs. The table beside us was there before we were and still had not gotten their food. They were not happy. You know the BBQ HAS ALREADY BE SMOKED ! 0 for 2 most likely won't go back , it's about a 25 minute drive away . To many other places in Louisville to eat ! read more

Oh my god. This place is simply awesome. Smoky goodness thru and thru. You do Not "need" sauce, but like my chef brother David makes, the sauce adds a great experience to your taste buds, just remember, a little goes a long ways. Smoky deliciousness. The owner, Miss B, I met is simply kind and polite. Pretty huge menu, with paper posted specials you do not want to miss. i.e. rib tips and smoked meat loaf. Folks who come here sometimes travel a fair distance to get their grub on. I'm lucky, I just moved close by. The hand cut fries looked spectacular. I hear their fish sandwich makes for lines, be patient. I would bet this is Championship BBQ at its finest. Bring friends and eat family style. I would bring Jesus to eat here. read more

I ordered the BBQ chicken sandwich. The chicken was very dry and didn't taste very smokey to me. My brother ordered ribs. He said they tasted very good but we're overcooked. The bone was disintegrating. The sides were very good. We had green beans, mac and cheese, and coleslaw. read more

Bully is one of the better barbecue spots around Louisville. I really enjoy their smoked wings (requires 4 hour prior notice), pork and brisket. The Bully Potato is good and is absolutely enormous. Prices are fair. I recommend you try Bully out if you are in the mood for some good Q. read more

I normally have no issue writing a review for a place that I dine at. The review for Bully has been hard. I really really wanted to like their BBQ. I have been back three times in the hope that the previous visit was not representative of their BBQ. I can say this, they are consistent. Another reason I struggled with the review is that they continue to win various BBQ awards, so I kept trying their BBQ in the hope of getting an award-winning serving. I never did. The issue I have with the BBQ is the smoke taste. Now I normally enjoy a good smoke, but the items I tried at Bully had nothing but smoke taste in them. The smoke flavor was so overpowering that smoke was all I could taste. The meat seemed to be of good quality, but I could not taste it. I tried various sides, and they were all OK, but I went for the BBQ. Now I did really like their BBQ sauce, but again, that is not why I go to a BBQ place. The staff was very friendly, the service was great, and they were packed every time I went, so people do like their BBQ. So if you like a lot of smoke flavor, Bully is your place. Just not for me. read more

Food is amazing. Only problem is it takes forever to get the food. Lots of seating though.

My family and I came in here on Saturday evening for dinner. We were pleased with our selection of barbecue for a Saturday evening dinner I have never been here, so this is kind of off the beaten path and my dad has been wanting to try this place for many weeks now since you found out about it. We go in and we order our food. I personally got the full pork plate and macaroni With baked beans. I am going to give my pork a four my macaroni a two and the beans a three meet was definitely the best of the options. My wife got the big giant potato and she gave that a four my dad gave his meal overall 3 1/2 is what he said he said he would come back, but overall this is a nice place. We enjoyed the food. The ambience was just OK. It was just your typical barbecue place. Service was pretty good they were personable. They have really cheap cakes for three dollars which I thought was a good deal. read more

We waited one hour for our food to come out. The food was good but definitely not worth waiting that long.

It's decent. The bbq is okay, fish sandwich was pretty good. I avoid their sides. Funny story, my mom and I were talking about Cole slaw, she couldn't remember the name. I asked, does it taste like old people? Yep, it was bully bbq. Their service is good and the smell is amazing. The new restaurant is nice. read more

Have eaten there twice. 1st was pulled pork plater. Meat was ok but fries were great. 2nd was the brisket plater. I was with friends and we all agreed that the meat was really tough and burned in places. Again fries were great. I don't think I will ever go back read more
