    A must stop for the smoked meats, both the brisket and pork are melt-in-your-mouth delicious! My first time here so reserving a star for a second visit.

    For being almost the middle of nowhere (Thorp, WI) the food at this place was outstanding. I had the slow-BBQed-shredded beef plate. It was soooooo tender and delicious. You won't walk away hungry. Our table also ordered jalepenos stuff with beef and deep fried - i think they were called Armadillo Eggs....or something funny like that. The bar had a pretty large selection of bottled beers, but none that really hit home to a true beer lover, except for one from Deschutes brewery - lots of low end beer, Leinies, and the lighter New Glarus beers. Overall, I thought it was a bit pricey, but oh well, my company paid for this one!

    Relaxed atmosphere, reasonable prices. Service staff we had was poor but it was still good food. Nice smokey BBQ, and excellent Reuben sandwich.

    Most places the food doesn't look nearly as awesome as the website photos. Well at this restaurant I was impressed!

    The food is awesome. Presented well on the plate. Plenty to fill you up and friendly staff too. The in-house smoked meats are great. I am glad we made the drive.

    Mixed skillet - chicken, pulled pork, brisket, ribs, baked beans, corn on the cob and a large basket of fries.

    Thoroughly enjoyed our visit here. The soups were particularly good and the meat entrees did not disappoint! Will visit again!

    Karl's Bar B Q Express - Three meat platter with brisket, ribs, pulled pork, and cornbread. Sides: Mac & cheese, fresh cucumber salad, pickles, and cowboy beans.

    Stopped into this little gem, while out of town for a softball tournament, with a group of 9. The…read moreseating in this spot is limited, but the food is delicious. They have three round barrel high top tables (5 people?), one long table for 8-10 people, and a few swivel stools along the wall for seating. From the moment we walked in we were greeted by the employees and they were very helpful in answering our questions when we had a tough time deciding what to order. Platters come with two sides, pickles, onions are an option too, but I'm not a fan, and a piece of cornbread. I initially planned on one type of meat and some sides, but after watching those ahead of me in our group get their food I couldn't decide. Opted for a three meat platter and was very glad I did. Three meats I chose included pulled pork, brisket, and ribs. The ribs were falling off the bone, full of flavor and a great option. Brisket, which I don't usually choose because I don't enjoy the fatty pieces, was phenomenal. Pulled pork came in bigger chunks and was fine, but the brisket and ribs were the star of the show. Each piece of meat was pulled from the oven and sliced for us right at the counter. My sides were mac & cheese and the cucumber salad. The mac was nice and creamy with the right balance of cheesy goodness and salt, making sure it's not just a blah noodle. The cuke salad was also a delightful surprise. I was expecting more of a vinegar base since it is listed as fresh cucumber salad, but it came out as a creamy salad with dill. The tomatoes mixed into the salad are marinated, giving it another burst of flavor with each bite. The cornbread was a little dense, but it was sweet, and served with a hefty amount of butter. Overall, this southerner would rate this as the best BBQ I've found so far in Wisconsin. My father-in-law, who is hard to please when it comes to food, was also with us and I overheard him telling someone on the phone that "it was the best BBQ he's ever had." My husband was hoping to try the burnt ends, but they weren't quite ready for serving while we were there. During our visit, a team of employees was also preparing for a catering event. They all sat down at a barrel top table and discussed the upcoming event and the plan for the evening. Everyone seemed fully informed on what their job was and the upcoming menu and when it was to be served. I would have confidence in this group if I had an event they were catering based on the taste and their thoroughness in planning.

    I got a 3 meat combo with pulled pork, brisket and turkey. The cowboy beans and potato salad are…read morealso my go to for sides. Karl's catered our wedding 2 summers ago and everyone loved it! We sent guests home with leftovers and everyone now craves Karl's bbq! We live in Las Vegas during the school year and there is not a single bbq joint in Vegas that can match Karl's!!! Sorry no pics as we ate too fast!
