They have funny hours and the line is long and it is well worth the wait. The inside is decorated with eclectic things, my favorite is the pig over the bar area. The food...delicious, I got two meats and two sides. Plenty to share for two people, I chose ribs and burnt tips. The rib meat fell off the bone. I can't wait to go again. read more

Never open when we come through so can't say if it's good or not but if you're going to do business you should actually be open more than the weekend. So many times I've driven to and from OKC and wanted to stop by. Definitely not going to make the trip from Tulsa just for food or though. read more

This was my first time coming and it did not disappoint! A good thing to know about this place is there is always a long line. We got here about 9:50 and they open at 11. The staff were super friendly while we waited. The restaurant was super kitschy and eclectic with mismatching chairs and funny signs. The food was well made! My family had a variety of meats and all were good. Our favorite was the brisket. The baked beans were so unique as well. Definitely worth a trip if you're in the area! read more

Get you some BBQ ! And a Twinkie! They have finally finished the construction so no problems. Exit is nice and great entrance to Butchers. If you haven't been go before Spring, when lines will be really long. We went on Sunday after 1 and just short line, so we lucked out. Ordered Ribs, Brisket and Jalapeno cheese. Food always great, $$$...yes. Service, super nice. Full bar to enjoy. Even got news of a small antique shop opening in parking lot and talk of Hamburgers in Luther ! They amaze me how much they have grown. read more

The butcher stand has a robust history starting out as a small food truck sized stand and expanding to a sit down restaurant with a gift shop. You have to arrive early because they get a line and sell out quickly. My favorite was the burnt ends (fatty brisket, no sauce) and the Mac and cheese. We got the platter to try a bit of everything including sausage, chicken, turkey, and pulled pork. The sauces and sweet tea are fire, of course. They have limited hours, so get here early and prepare to feast! read more

It lives up to the hype. It's just classic no frills bbq of the highest quality. Sure it's a drive, sure it's a line, sure they run out of certain food within a couple hours but it's WORTH IT. We got there at 9 but truth be told most people didn't start rollin in until 10 to wait in line. They don't open until 11. We got a double of the meat locker to feed us and we had left overs. I mean look at that meat spread. Everything was delicious but the ribs were especially good! read more

Burnt ends brisket was amazing Mac and cheese was good. Turkey was dry- don't bother getting that. Ribs were okay but I don't like pork Bbq sauces were amazing! People also recommended potato salad but I didn't really like that. I'd go with the corn Instead. Service was friendly and helpful read more

This was a true experience from start to finish. We arrived, admittedly a bit earlier than necessary, but you do need to show up an hour before opening to get in line. There are chairs to sit down INSIDE while waiting so don't worry about the weather while waiting. The burnt ends were on point and full of flavor, but I will say, the pork ribs are the way to go. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful the whole way through and truly take pride in their work. There was construction going on in the highway directly next to the restaurant but please please please don't let that stop you from coming in and having some of the best BBQ in the state! read more

We drove out here on Labor Day. It did not dawn on me to check as see if they were open. I just assumed but they are only open Fri-Sun and closed the rest of the week. Butchers is a BBQ staple and the owners have been featured on of the top bbq competition shows. Looks like a huge place with online ordering pickup on one end and the main building on the other. There was a huge fenced in area tht would be outdoor seating. Route 66 is under heavy construction and the signs say road closed but you can still get to the restaurant. The road is closed just after tht but pay attn as it is a little tricky. read more

Every so often you have a meal where it truly feels like a privilege to have eaten it. This is one of those times. Having heard about this place over the years I've been meaning to try it, but since they're only open three days a week it made it a little more challenging. Since I had the day off on a Friday, I decided to drive out to Wellston to check it out and I'm so happy I did. It was quite the experience and definitely worth the drive. I had a half slab of ribs as well as a smoked sausage link. The sausage was excellent, but what really made the meal was their ribs. The honey rub that they had on there is some of the best I've ever had anywhere in the United States. This was one of those times where when I finished my meal I was genuinely sad because I wanted more. The people who work here are so friendly and make you feel like you're at a close relatives from back in the day when life was simpler. I can't recommend this place enough. Please drive out to Wellston and check them out! read more

Butcher BBQ Stand - Half slab and smoked sausage link - Barbeque Near Me - Wellston, Oklahoma

The brisket is tender but has no flavor. The bbq sauce is just ok. They don't start serving dinner until 5:00. It's way too hot inside. They won't let you sit at a table until you get your food. The sausage casing is way too hard. Corn on the cob has a weird flavor. The nachos were ok and the white queso on them was good. We were all unimpressed. The food was edible but just meh. Much better bbq places elsewhere. It's also on the expensive side. read more

So glad to hear that the construction is finally completed!!! This is a standout bbq joint in Oklahoma. The brisket and sides were amazing. The line was long, but if you know......bbq lines are the most fun!!! You always "meat" amazing people and this was no exception! I would love to take our Edmond kiddos here someday soon. read more

Best BBQ around !! The road trip and line is totally worth it. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Out go to are the chopped brisket nachos ! Who would have thought nachos at a bbq joint, well they are spot on ! read more

All yall saying Butcher's BBQ Stand is so good, I'm so sorry you haven't had good BBQ.... It's the fattiest brisket I've had. And the ribs were inedible with so much fat. I grew up in East Texas, and am in NW Arkansas a lot and this place is not good. I went to The Butcher BBQ Stand, stood in the line... ordered whatever had all the meats, and got extra sides. The Mac and cheese is good. The bbq beans are disgusting, too sweet to eat. First time I've ever been to a bbq place that doesn't provide dill pickles... they'll change you $5 though. I wouldn't care about any of it if the meat was good -- other than turkey -- that was excellent! My recommendation -- I haven't been to many BBQ places in OKC -- but @Texlahoma is good. I'm sure there are many more, too. I think people are supposed to clean up (take trash to bin/ clear table)... I did... but most people had to clear their own table! Absolutely no cleaning. read more

Stopped for lunch and may have been the worse burnt end sandwich I've ever had. All fat, no smoke flavor, and our hands were black from the bun. Beans were OK but just over sweet brown sugar & canned pork & beans. Wife had the potato salad and it was rancid, I spit mine out. Super overpriced below average Q. So disappointed, won't be back. read more

Best BBQ!! We decided to take a Sunday drive to Wellston to try Butchers BBQ and it was definitely worth it! We did have to wait in line about 25 minutes on a Sunday at 1230, which was not bad! We got the ribs, pulled pork/brisket sandwich, tater tot casserole, beans, and potato salad. We tried a cocktail at the nostalgic 80's bar, and they make a great Old Fashioned cocktail. read more

First, I want to mention there is construction off the turnpike so we ended up having to drive around the construction on a gravel road, which added an extreme amount of time just to get there. We had our dog so we needed to seat ourselves outside. It seemed peaceful until we picked up our food. Once our food was there, the experience went to miserable quickly. The bees were absolutely swarming. We grabbed to go boxes and left. Maybe some of the food would have been better fresh but we now had to drive it home. The food was decent but I don't understand the $50 price tag. The best item was the beans. 2nd best was the burnt ends. Chicken was average. Pork was greasy. Mac and cheese was okay. We could not eat the potato salad. It had a strange flavoring that neither of us cared for. In our opinion not worth the drive or price. read more

Customer service was very nice. I called to place an order and the gentleman helping me was very patient and knowledgeable. The ambiance was pretty cool. Nice decor in the restaurant. We ordered the meat locker. The food was really good too. The ribs had a great smoke taste and were very tender. Everything had good flavor. I like the jalapeño and cheddar sausage. Chopped brisket , sliced turkey was very flavorful too. I mean everything was good. The sides were okay which was apple pie baked beans, mac and cheese, and the corn. I wish they gave a bigger portion of sides considering it's like a family pack being ordered . I'm glad I finally got to experience this place. read more

One of the highest rated BBQ restaurants in Oklahoma but I was very disappointed. Drove 105 miles each way for mediocre food. My preference is always sliced brisket but mine came almost too lean so it was dry. Worse yet it was served lukewarm. Also had their sausage. The casing and filling texture were the best I've had in the state unlike most other sausage that has all the texture of a hot dog wiener. But it had a unique, strong taste. Some might like it but it was not for me. My wife had the ribs and they were very good. But nothing makes up for the poor serving of brisket. Then there were the sides. Many high profile chefs eschew just good tasting sides for unique, signature ones with special flavors. I think that is the case here. I love regular baked or BBQ beans but these had a strong apple pie flavor added. Please just give me tasty beans. The potato salad was good but nothing special. My wife liked the cheesy Mac and cheese. read more

Best BBQ I have ever had. This place is worth the stop in Oklahoma. The burnt ends are tender and melt in your mouth. The brisket was juicy and had a nice smoky flavor. The inside is very cute and creates a perfect family atmosphere. They have a bar where it takes you to back in the day and reminds of your grandmothers home. Service was quick and friendly. read more

Best BBQ we've ever had!!! It is what we love about bbq... rich taste! It's worth the stop.

Butchers is some of the best BBQ I've ever had in Oklahoma. Just be prepared to wait in line because it is first come first serve here. Once you get up to order your food they come up with a custom name for you to pick up your food, service was amazing! They also have a little gift shop where you could buy their signature sauces and seasons. I would 100% come try this place out if you are driving by or if you looking for a new place to try, it will blow you away! read more

The ambiance was very cute! The man who welcomed us was very engaging. We stood in line for an hour with people cutting in line and no one saying anything. We ordered ribs, burnt ends, and sausage. The burnt ends were good, not spectacular, but good. The ribs tasted like the ribs that I got in the dorm cafeteria, very institutional. I had hopes for the sausage, but it tasted like dirt. We shall not be returning. read more

They get a 5 for having great local music. We cam and heard Jommy Dale and absolutely loved it. The outdoor music patio was large and had great airflow. The ribs had a great flavor. Only downside was they were a little grisly compared to my faves. Really good sauces and sides too. And....... they gave a twinkie for dessert! Holy Zombieland!! read more

The atmosphere is very nice - along with service. The BBQ is outstanding and boils down to what you personally prefer. We ordered the Meat Locker. It's what we usually get for a group of 4 - plus we end up with tons of leftovers. You get 6 types of bbq meat and 3 small sides for $75. All the sides are delicious. I love the Cole slaw potato salad, and pickles. We did order extra sides this time. We also ordered extra brisket but it was a big part of our leftovers. Last year, we got the tri tip steaks for Christmas, and they were excellent. I met a woman there who ordered the cherry ham for Christmas last year, and she was pleased. We drove about an hour there from the OKC area to pick up our Thanksgiving smoked turkey, and I'm sure we will order the tri tip steaks again for Christmas. We also brought home some smoked pimento cheese. Twinkies are their dessert star. They give you two with the Meat Locker. Get there by 10:30 am on Saturdays for lunch because the line starts early, and the place is always crowded. read more

Excellent BBQ! Ordered the sampler tray and everything on the plate was excellent! Loved the apple pie baked beans too! Will be back soon!

I'm gonna get a little sacrilegious but hold on for the ride. Or don't idk/idc. I hate barbecue and I rarely eat it. It annoys me to discuss the category of food altogether because it always turns into a sausage measuring contest. Just put it in my mouth already I genuinely don't care to argue who is managing their meat the best. That said, Butchers is doing the damn thing out there. This is my second trip in 4ish years and I enjoyed things much more this time for whatever reason. Like I said above, I don't give a damn about style. The brisket was good, but the chicken was better. (I know, I usually hate bbq chicken/turkey more than I hate bbq but I swear to god it amazing). Burnt ends were good but I don't get the hype. Alright now most importantly... I'm 63yo (at heart) and the potato salad was the 2nd place highlight of the trip. That lil dill in there???? SHEEEEESSH. Macaroni, bomb, and I usually don't vibe restaurant Mac and cheese. The apple pie baked beans were good, just a lil sweet for me and I didn't have 500u insulin on me to handle allat. One notable beef (hehe) I have is that they always sell out of things early. Like, cmon mane, how you selling out of ribs 2 hours (probably earlier) into service as a bbq joint. This wouldn't be as big of a deal if it weren't for the substitution rule on the Meat Locker. Ordering then turns into this chaotic shuffle of which bulk meat items do I want to get (and how much?) because ONE item on the meat locker isn't available. I feel it would make much more sense to just have a sub option available, even if it's going to require a meat premium to be applied. All that yapping aside, the dude at the counter was cool about it and the food was good. The vibes were great (other than me having to stroke the bbq utter to get my sauce that was weird). read more

Food was pretty good 3.5 * out of 5* Ambiance fake bbq tourists trap. Service was blah. Too much look at me attitude. Most of the tables could use an actual cleaning between customers. They give you a fake name card for your order which they obviously don't clean between uses. Health Department violation. All in all food decent that helps make up for the other obvious shortcomings. read more

Great bbq and so nice. Never been on a Friday night for dinner but people were lined up at 4:30 waiting for the special We have eaten in and done large order take out. The quality was the same both ways. Great turkey. Brisket, pulled pork and sides. Love the Twinkie for dessert so much fun read more

You cannot go wrong with this bbq joint unless you get here when they run out something because that does happen. Be prepared to be in bbq heaven! Their ribs and pulled pork are my favorite!

Butcher BBQ Stand - The meat locker. - Barbeque Near Me - Wellston, Oklahoma

Our first time to try this restaurant. Stood in line for one hour and five minutes. My basic stand on food is NO food is worth standing in line for that long. The logistics/ organization at this restaurant is terrible.They could easily make the flow of customers faster and easier,but it quickly became apparent that they do not want to. They like the long lines waiting. It adds to the "mystique" of the place .They do not care about the annoyance or the inconvenience to the customer. Regarding the food, the sides are "average," nothing outstanding. The brisket and ribs however are truely superb. The ribs are probably the best I have ever had. Still not worth standing in line for over an hour. If they apply simple restaurant management tactics to improve customer flow/satisfaction I would return otherwise I probably will not go back. read more

Good food and good experience. The waiting in line almost adds to it. It is worth making the trip out here at least once if you're a local.

I've been to numerous BBQ joints around the States and Butcher constantly out performs the so called Famous Q spots you see on TV all the time. Meatlocker and The RedNexican nachos are always a must. read more
