My husband ordered the ribs and okra, and I got a shrimp po boy sandwich with collard greens. The young man at the register was very helpful & efficient, and we quickly found a table. I needed to use the restroom while I waited for our order, but a sign on a door in the corner said 'out of order' so sadly, no bathroom. The young man from the register soon brought out our order, and we were happy! I grew up with peppery collards on the south side of Chicago, and man! I was surprised to have such a good cup in KS! They were hot, so tender & peppered, and the meat in them was lean & juicy. My po boy had 5 shrimp- almost too many to fit into the roll, but they were breaded & fried, hot & crispy. The roll was fresh & well- stocked with tomato, lettuce & mayo. There is a free 'sample' of coleslaw given on each order it seems, but I did not care for mine. My husband really enjoyed his ribs; they weee smoky & tender and the portion was good. The okra was kind of a bummer; clearly an out-of-the-frozen bag kind, but he said it was clear the kitchen had prioritized the ribs, which were awesome. We were sad to see a lack of variety in sauce, but what we did have was delightful. I highly recommend this place, and will likely be back soon, just for the collards!

Their menu had a variety of options, but we opted for the pulled pork nachos (after seeing how huge it was from another table) and a Burnt Ends Brisket Sandwich with Cajun fries. Also ordered fresh raspberry donuts for dessert, the owner's creation. The nachos were a huge serving indeed, good for 3-4 people; brisket was delicious; donuts were warm and fresh. Place was clean and organized; definitely a great spot to hangout, especially if you are a KC Chiefs fan! Check this local spot if ever i Ottawa!

The restaurant is located at the top of a narrow staircase (there may be an elevator but we didn't see one). You place your order at a walk-up counter. The gentleman who took our order was very friendly and helped us decipher the menu. We both ordered the brisket sandwich. My husband got a platter with the beans and cheesy potatoes. I got the smaller plate with potato salad. The brisket was "shredded" which is not how I am used to on a BBQ brisket sandwich. It was really dry and honestly didn't have much of a smoked flavor. I put sauce on it, but didn't really care for the taste of that either. I would describe it as sweet Heinz 57 sauce. The potato salad was nothing exceptional but tasted fine. Same with my husband's cheesy potatoes. However the BBQ beans were exceptional! Probably some of the best I have ever had. They were rich and sweet with chunks of meat. I wish I had ordered a plate of those! Overall, I wouldn't really recommend Black Dog Bar B Que. But if you go, be sure you order the beans!

OMG. This is a small town tavern serving so pretty good BBQ. I'd heard about it from a friend and…read moresaid their pork ribs are outstanding and they run out. So for me I'm not a rib person I savored their other meats. I had the brisket and polish sausage. I found it interesting how they sliced it (really thin) but for me I got a good taste of the flavor I felt and don't worry they didn't skip on the portions. I got the regular 2 meat sandwich with no bread. They have their own sauce which has a great taste as well. I tried their spicy pickles and I did enjoy it. I would like to see them take their own sauce as I enjoyed the clover and add some kick to it lol. The lady who waited on me was extremely friendly and knew I was not from there and explained everything. It is a small town tavern in the middle of the town Williamsburg nice peaceful and you feel at home. They were not busy when I got there but by the time I left I felt it was standing room only. NOTE!!!!!!!! They are CASH orCHECK only so be prepared. It's worth it just about 20 minutes south of KC

I wouldn't say G&M is divey, but divey adjacent. Beers are cheap, and the food is delicious. I ordered a slab of ribs, so I would have some to take home. They had a great bark, delicious flavor, and were literally fall off the bone. They didn't require sauce, which is good, as the only sauce at G&M's was a bit sweet for my taste. Don't pass up the Jalapeño Pickles! I had the potato salad and beans, both I thought leaned sweet as well, however, the Jalapeño Pickles may have thrown off my taste buds. Pay attention on your way back to the highway, because if you stay on the main road, you will be headed in the opposite direction.

We ordered the family dinner, with fried pickles & onion rings as our sides. Smoked turkey & brisket are what we always get for our generous half pound meat choices. We also added a slab of ribs (we have teenagers). Once again, everything was hot & fresh, crispy or soft and smoky; all as expected. No food leftover between the 4 of us. Just finger-licking food at VERY reasonable prices. The staff were- as always- cheerful & knowledgable, and we got a variety of their house-made bbq sauces. My fav is the hot vinegar, but to each his own! This will continue to be our go-to for Lawrence bbq.

The once sacred brisket is beyond chewable. I'd rather them just not sell it if they aren't going to cook it. I've gone other times when it was sold out and just had to pivot to something else. That's fine. But, to wrap this up and try to pawn it off as anything good it simply wrong. The only thing left is the spicy ranch. That's pretty good but probably going to need to lace me with alcohol to go back. Goodbye
