The bartender at the Marriott said this was the best barbecue in the area. The food did not disappoint. Great pulled pork. Awesome ribs. It's not fancy but most good BBQ places are not. You place your order and pick it up At the window when they call your number. read more

Bought a couple of pounds to take home and make sandwiches. Only sold as chopped not sliced. Very dry, little flavor, just disappointing.

The lighting is great,The food is the best thing to eat I got a 2 meat plate with Mac and Cheese and Coleslaw, The service is great

Our second visit since moving from out of state. The food is good. Our order was a loaded potato for me, and a half rack of ribs with beans and coleslaw for husband. The potato was cooked just right, with plenty of butter, sour cream and chives. I had a rib from the husband's plate and the meat fell off the bone! I added some hot BBQ sauce and so enjoyed the flavor of it all. Service was top notch at the counter and the food was promptly served. Condiments and utensils could have been in a more noticeable location, and seemed to fall short of quantity. The ambiance at this location was good. The dining room was clean and decorated with some style. Looks like our "go to" for barbecue. read more

Love there turkey, can be dry at times but great all around BBQ. I always get potato salad and bread, ribs are delicious.

A family favorite!! Usually take it home for family gatherings! Wonderful, delicious meat choices. Always fresh and savory! The sides are really tasty, too. The pricing is good, the servings are adequate. Always get the baked beans, they are amazing! Staff is always friendly and assertive. Dining in is ok, a bit dated but clean. For barbecue in Wichita, it's pretty good and there are several locations throughout the city and Derby. read more

Fabulous and medium priced BBQ joint with very helpful service. The ambience is not here, this is a casual dine in experience with McDonald's like atmosphere. However this place really shines when it comes to fast service and helpful staff. I received an incorrect order and it was made right very quickly. Food quality is high compared to price. read more

This is the perfect place to go if you need comfort food. I personally love the BBQ sandwich with macaroni-and cheese! Everything else is also wonderful! Every bite is so flavorful and as much as I eat there, I have never gotten bone or gristle! Everything is always warm and when I eat it I feel like I just got a big warm hug! They take your order then almost right away give it to you! I love the ambiance, it's bbq and yet comforting! The seats are a bit worn and bathrooms aren't amazing but everything else looks and is nice! read more

I ordered a carryout meal yesterday and the lady on the phone was so very helpful. When I went to pick it up today, everything was packaged neatly and totally accurate. We ordered ribs, pulled chicken, coleslaw, baked beans, mac & cheese, and potato salad. Everything was superb. Keep up the good work! read more

A trip to Kansas isn't complete without a stop at a barbecue joint. This was a new one for me and I was glad I stopped! Good service, clean restaurant and the food was yummy. read more

Hog Wild Pit Bar-B-Q - ows ribs and mashed potatoes - Barbeque Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

See all

Pretty decent bbq coming from Texas. Definitely very neutral for various types of people. I like the pork most of all.

We've had good meals from Hog Wild until Wednesday night (7/3/24) at the 21st and Tyler location. We ordered the #1 family pack to go (we live out of town). The staff was great, no issues there. The brisket was awful. It wasn't cooked right and had lots of fat and gristle. I estimate we threw away 20% of the meat because it was inedible-unless you like globs of fat and chunks of gristle. The meat was dry, too. read more

I have been a fan of Hog Wild for at least 20 years. Hands down my favorite barbecue place... until tonight. I haven't ordered from the south rock location in a few years, but it was on my way home. I ordered a 2 meat dinner: ribs, brisket, potato salad and baked beans. The potato salad was just mush, tasted ok but the texture was kind of like a grainy mayo and pickle pudding. The brisket was ok, but the ribs were absolutely inedible. Hard, dry and overcooked to the consistency of leather. I could not even cut it with the plastic knife provided. I managed to get a small piece off of the middle that was chewable... but the taste was... just 'off' is the best description I can manage. Best guess is it may have been slightly rancid, which is so far off my previous experiences that I am still floored. If it wasn't a 20 minute drive I would have taken it back to show them just how bad it was as I just can't imagine why they would have served it to someone. (It was a half rack, so they would have known how tough it was when they cut it.) Hopefully this is a one-off experience but I can definitely say I won't be going back for a long long time. read more

Small portions, high prices = poor customer experience! Sandwich was ridiculously small for price! What little brisket I tasted was good... curly fries good, pickles good, sauce really good... just not prices right for what you get! AND I DONT WANT TO HEAR all prices are high or costs since Covid, blah, blah, blah! I can name 5 competitors that offer MORE portion at a lower price! read more

Food is great best bbq I've found since I've been in Kansas since I'm from the BBQ state NC it's been hard to compare

I used Door dash and ordered the three meat dinner. The green beans were tasty, although a very small portion. The salad was fresh and included a nice variety. They need a sugar free dressing option. The pulled chicken and pork arrived in a foil pouch. Both were moist and delicious, once again a small serving. I'm usually not eating bread, but I sampled the toast to let you know that it was soft and delicious. Ordering the three meat requires that one meat be the ribs. I will not be able to review the much anticipated ribs, as they were not delivered with my food order. Very disappointing. I truly anticipated the ribs. I recommend this dinner. I assume that dining in receives a larger portion of each item. Dining in would also guarantee the ribs arrived. read more

This place is "alright" at best. I'll give it only a 2.5 star overall. They don't have bone in chicken which was an indicator to me they wouldn't be very good. The turkey was all chopped up and I think that is because it was dry and they are trying to hide it. The pulled pork was a little dry as well but was "ok". The green and baked beans were pretty good. The garlic toast was only toasted on one side, (why??). Seems like they don't care about the finer details here. Help wasn't all that friendly either. I'll pass on coming back. read more

I've endured one of the most unpleasant managers ever because I asked the server to please not return a quart of spilled beans to the same container. the "manager" info me that they don't need my money and I immediately requested a refund I don't appreciate the unprofessional report although I tried to resolve the matter before the guy closed the window in my face. I will never ever visit this place again. the food is delicious but the service on this one day was a ship wreck. read more

I would five 3 stars to the South Rock Rd location. Hubby and I eat lunch there quite often. Mostly the sandwich special. The Rock Rd location is a bit iffy as to the quantity of food you get on a sandwich. Occasionally it is a decent portion. Other times you get maybe 1.5 to 2 ounces of meat on a sandwich (of which the bread I cannot eat as I'm gluten free), so that makes for a not filling lunch. However, the meat is always good and edible. Today my hubby brought me a sandwich from the North Woodlawn location. It was full of hard cartilage and was mostly unedible. I will never go back to that location. I have never received stuff like that from the Rock Rd location. read more

I've been in Wichita for 10+ days and this is the third barbecue restaurant I've been to. I've got to say right now it's in third place over the other two. Food was just OK, nothing special. I had hoped with Yelp having four stars for this restaurant that it would've been better. read more

Cozy enough environment but slightly worn out looking. I like the table cloth and the overall look. Booths were nice and fairy new. Pulled pork sandwich was dry and there were a few pieces of bad gristle which was unappetizing. Staff was friendly enough. Average restaurant. I'll probably look for a different bbq next time but would come back if someone wanted to come here. read more

Nice little BBQ restaurant! The interior is clean, pleasantly rustic, the menu is clearly displayed at the front, the prices are reasonable, the food came out quickly and it tasted great. I came here with a group of 13 for a family dinner and was quite happy with the experience. I live in Texas and have access to plenty of good BBQ and I thought this was just as good as anything I've had back home. I ordered the Carolina pulled pork sandwich which was pulled pork on a bun and topped with coleslaw. The pork and coleslaw both had a really nice flavor and the portion was perfect. I enjoyed their bottled sauces too although the text on the label is very difficult to decipher unless you look really closely. A number of people in our party ordered the ribs and commented that they were very good and the portion was larger than anticipated. This is definitely worth a stop if you are in the area and want BBQ. read more

Hog Wild Pit Bar-B-Q - Carolina pulled pork sandwich. - Barbeque Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

Idk what happened to hog wild bar-b-q because about 10 years ago we would get hog wild almost every weekend after church service, and it was delicious! my husband grabbed some on the way home from working in our shop last night and I couldn't wait to sink my teeth down into those ribs oh and the aroma, they were smelling so delicious! When I bit into the rib I couldn't believe what I was tasting my taste buds were surprised as I was because what we were tasting(me & my taste buds) wasn't at all what I remembered this meat didn't taste like it had been smoked for hours like they claim it tasted like it hadn't been smoked or even bar-b-qed for one hour! It was horrible!!! It was so bad that I only could eat one rib! My husband couldn't eat much of his dinner either. The only thing that I could eat were the green beans, they were pretty decent. I was so disappointed I'm never eating there again!!! read more

Couldn't visit Wichita, KS without trying some Kansas BBQ! The only thing worth trying here, really. The BBQ meats on the menu include beef brisket, ham, pulled pork, hot links, chicken. I opted for the one meat "dinner" plate (no lunch) for $8.95 which comes with 2 sides and 2 slices of Texas toast. Good deal. I ordered it with beef brisket, baked beans and potato salad. The beef brisket was tender, moist, and flavorful. It needed a bit more BBQ sauce, but they have some on the table. I wished I got the mac n cheese instead as a side because the beans were too sweet for me, but the potato salad and Texas toast were good! They also have sandwich options and their cobblers looked amazing. Too bad I was too full to eat any. All in all, it didn't blow my mind, but it's a pretty good place to get BBQ. I'll be back if I ever find myself stuck in Wichita again. read more

The one I visited on West St. Sucked they are stingy with their portions so it's not worth the cost and the staff including the manager are extremely rude, don't care about the customers very unprofessional and argumentative I will never go back! read more

For me everything starts with the service. Since you get greeted by the cashier where they take your order you can tell the place can't be bad!! The place smells really good and the barbecue tastes better. I had the beef brisket and pulled pork, delicious especially with the hot habanero sauce the keep in the back, ask for it!! read more

Hog Wild Pit Bar-B-Q - Two meat plate, beef brisket and pulled pork with cole slaw and corn. Jalapeños and onions from their mini bar and squealer sauce. - Barbeque Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

It's pretty good for a chain restaurant. Caters to middle aged white folks, lots of military and others in Kansas region. (Just my observation here in Wichita) Pulled pork was better than the ribs. Cole slaw was fine and best thing were the green beans which came with bacon and had been cooked in some broth. Plenty of hog but not so wild. read more

I'm visiting Wichita and Hog Wild was recommended to me by a friend. The place is kind of fast-foodish, clean quiet, almost sterile - not like the BBQ places I'm used to where they are loud, smokey and smell of smoke. I ordered the Smokestack sandwich - brisket and smoked sausage. I make combos like that whenever I get a chance. The brisket was tender but, as other reviewers have mentioned, lacked a smokey taste. The smoked sausage had a nice hot/spicy flavor but needed more smoke. The toasted and buttered bun is what made this sandwich really work. The real disappointment was they don't have banana pudding. Really? Banana pudding is one of the simplest things to make. Overall, an average meal. I live in Texas and Hog Wild wouldn't make it there. Edited to add: Some Wichita friends mentioned "...Hog Wild is good for Wichita, but since you live in Texas, it won't be that good..." LOL NOW they tell me ;) read more

I'm visiting from California right now and my fiance and I decided to get down on some bbq while in town. The first day we went to a bbq place in old town, and it was amazing! So we decided to try this local chain based on reviews. I ordered the pulled pork and pulled chicken with, mashed, potatoes and potatoe salad. Starchy carb overload but sounded amazing in my head. The restaurant was clean, the bathroom was clean and the service was friendly. I got my food, tried the sauces and both were pretty decent. The chicken, was good, not dry but nothing special. Pulles pork was the same. Potato salad tasted like store bought and nothing special. Mashed, potatoes were also, meh. Overall, wasn't bad but wasn't great. I probably wouldn't go again on my next trip out. read more

The two meat dinner has many options of meats AND 2 sides for 9.49. I ordered the ribs & pulled pork with Mac n cheese & mashed potatoes (no gravy). The ribs looked really black & I was a little leery. They had a really nice smoky taste & could be torn apart easily. The pulled pork was very tender and wasn't as smoky it still had the taste of being smoked for a long time. The mac n cheese was average tasting but still hot & creamy. The mashed potatoes were clearly instant style. Tried the sauces on the table mild was sweet and the hot was sweet also & wasn't really hot. After a sampling of my husband's beans - I would trade them for the Mac n cheese. I think it's a good price for the choices. And I would definitely go back for the meats. Good choice for a quick BBQ joint. read more

On par with KC barbecue, no doubt. For a truly exceptional chain of restaurants, this location is no exception to their high standard of top-tier accessible barbecue and sides! Would recommend to anyone. read more

We arrived during lunch hour and it appears that this place is popular with the service members as well as the locals. This is a good place for a quick and cheap lunch. The entrance is a little corridor like and the open restaurant does allow for noise to travel. Ordered: 1 meat plate with pulled pork, bake beans and cole slaw. Carolinian pulled pork sandwich with cole slaw (on the sandwich) and a side of fries. Verdict: The bake beans tasted like canned beans. Nothing special. Cole slaw was okay. Pulled pork was good. You add your own sauce provided at the tables. read more

New to the area, so not a bbq connoisseur, but have travelled through the Midwest and stopped at most of the 4-5star (Yelp review) bbq joints. Hog wild was pleasant experience. Completely empty at 2pm on a Saturday, food was ready very promptly and the dining area was very clean. Staff was very friendly and talkative. Obviously a smaller establishment than Q39 in Kansas City, and lacks the burnt ends, but other wise this was a great place for an above average mid day bbq pit stop. Will definitely be returning. No negative comments about the food or establishment. read more

Holy smokes! This place was great! Checked Yelp for some local BBQ while driving thru and stumbled upon this place. So glad that we did! I got the potato with chopped brisket on top and my husband got the burnt tips sandwich. My potato was okay but had an underwhelming amount of meat on top, not sure if that's the normal amount but it was a sad portion. The burnt tips sandwich made up for the sad potato. The flavor was so good, we ended up getting a pound to go. Sauces were also delicious and the staff also very friendly. Would go again 100% if ever in the area again. read more

Another good BBQ place in Wichita. I had lunch here with brisket, pulled pork and ribs. All the meats were delicious and enough to take some back with me. Of all the sides, I really liked the toast. read more

Kitchen style BBQ that exceeded my expectations! Quality BBQ at a reasonable price. Their spicy BBQ was a bit weak, but im someone who likes heat, so take it with a grain of salt. I would definitely eat here again! read more

My favorites: beef brisket, hot links and ribs, at Hog Wild, are as good as anywhere else, mostly better. But, their prices are incredibly reasonable and their service, their people are outstanding: so accommodating and so appreciative of customers. It's rare and it has been that way at the several Hog Wilds I've been to and the dozens of time I have gone. Hog Wild is just plain all around fabulous. read more

Place that was recommended to us, Bite Me, was closed on Sunday so we came here as it was rated number two. In their defense, I have my own smoker so I'm pretty critical. We pull up and the place is deserted at 6:15 other than one couple leaving. (3-4 more groups arrived to eat after we did though) Everyone ordered a variety of dinner plates as they were recommended as the best value. I got the three meat with brisket, burnt ends, hot links with coleslaw and baked beans for sides. Garlic bread is included. The cashier assured me the baked beans were homemade and delightful. I judge BBQ joints on their baked beans. The burnt ends were ok, but definitely were burnt. I'm pretty sure the burnt adjective is supposed to be figurative, not literal. So they tasted a little off. The brisket was meh. I know, I know I specialize in brisket so I am extremely hard on others. Is what it is. The really disappointing thing was the hot links. Well one of many I guess. They were pre-sliced and clearly they had been in a warmer all day, even if they were Luke warm. Dry and not real tasty. I should not have had to drown the entire meat selection in BBQ sauce to eat them. That being said the Hot sauce was pretty good. Back to disappointing, the beans were clearly from a can, at least that is my impression. And not a good can. Like the 10lb food service cans, that just say baked beans. The cole slaw was watery, tasteless and just meh. At least there were plenty of jalapeño, pickle and onion slices on the condiment table. Been in Wichita for 5 nights, have yet to have a fantastic meal based on Yelp reviews, or local recommendations. 13 nights to go. We'll see how it turns out I guess. read more

For anyone trying to feed a group, you are not getting what you pay for. They advertise a 12lb turkey for the holidays but it is more like a 6-8lb,$40 Turkey. We have been VERY loyal customers ordering 3 turkeys each year for many years. For the past 2-3 years we have been given small turkeys. I'm not sure if they are weighing frozen turkeys to get 12 lbs or not but a 6lb cooked turkeys does not feed what they say, and you don't loose 6lbs cooking a Turkey. Our turkeys this year were 6lbs ,7lbs and 8lbs each! Disappointing!! We will be trying someone else next year. Trying to support local but really hard when they are falsely advertising. read more
