Ok, let's talk serious BBQ! I can't believe that my hometown has actually been hiding such a gem. This barbecue shack boasts some of the best barbecue that your bond to find anywhere. Sure, it's no frills, but that is how barbecue should be anyway. I took my mother here, and we picked up a half rack of ribs and a few sandwiches. She had a pulled pork sandwich and was halfway done with its porky goodness before I could even ask her how it was. I had a meatball sub myself, and it was loaded with gooey cheese and delicious marinara sauce. The rib shack's sandwiches are certainly extraordinary, a real carnivore's delight. However, the star of this joint has to be the Baby Back ribs, a succulent masterpiece dressed in yummy Jack Daniels glaze. These beauties are cooked to perfection, and the meat literally falls off the bone. The next time I visit Waynesburg this will be one of my first stops. read more

Happy that I finally got to try this place....the BBQ was EXCELLENT!! We ordered a half rack of ribs and the pulled pork sandwich and it was delicious!! The meat fell off the ribs and was melt-in-your-mouth. The pulled pork sandwich was loaded with meat and the bread was delightfully fresh. My mom couldn't finish the sandwich so she was very excited to have leftovers for tomorrow. The BBQ sauce they use was sweet and tangy and complimented the meat just perfectly!! This place is a little ways out of town but definitely worth the trip!! I will certainly be back when I'm in Waynesburg visiting family. Best BBQ place in the area!!!!!! read more

Top notch ribs , pulled pork and meatball hoagies! The bread is fresh too and the service is great !

Great brisket sandwich! The owner is extremely nice, and for the price....the sandwich is huge and filling!

The Italian hoagie is the best around by far loaded with meat and cheese. The other local shops can't even compete with Matt's Italian hoagie. The ribs are too doe for as well always are fall off the bone tender. Great assortment of plants as well! read more

I was in town the other day and a local told me about this rib shack a little ways out of town that I needed to check out. I made the drive and boy was I glad I did. If you are fan of southern barbecue shacks out in BFE this place is right up your alley. There is a spit beside a trailer and a some tables under a tent like contraption (so you can eat in the rain). The food can take a little while to get to you but is well worth the wait. There is only one guy and his wife who run the show so the owner has a genuine interest in making sure you are happy and will go out of his way. This site is also a quick jump off of I-79. So if you driving through and looking for somewhere to eat stop reading now and put the address above into Google Maps. read more

My husband and I were in Waynesburg for the first time. We decided to give this place a try. So glad we did ! It's not fancy and you have to really look out for it as they also sell quite an assortment of plants. There are two picnic tables outside for dining. The owners are very friendly and accommodating regarding social distancing. Now, most importantly, the food. My husband and I shared a rack of ribs and an order of bacon cheese fries. I have never had ribs so meaty and so tender that the meat does truly fall off of the bone. The sauce has delicious flavor without being overly sweet or spicy. Neither my husband or I could finish our food and it's served in to go containers so that was perfect. We will definitely eat there again. We decided that this spot is worth a 2 hour round trip. read more

Great place to grab lunch, and you can call ahead to order too. Aside from the ribs which are good, my personal favorites are the whole wings, the brisket sandwich, the huge gyro, and the fries. I've never had anything bad here, definitely one of the best spots to eat for miles. read more

This place is phenomenal! We stopped here while on a business trip following a recommendation from a colleague in town. The BBQ is absolutely delicious. The owner has an awesome smoker on site and is very attentive and polite. Highly recommend stopping at this great place! read more

I found this barbecue place on Yelp and we were not disappointed. My wife and split a pulled pork sandwich and fries. The meat was excellent and fresh cut fries were the best we have had in along time. This eating place is outside the main way to drive. Thanks to Yelp for the directions!! read more

On a road trip from Columbus, Oh to Gordonsville, Va we stopped at My Son' in Waynesburg Pa. We were the last customers of the day. The food was incredible and to top it off, the owner gifted us with a bag of wings for the road. What a kind man!!! The ladies in the truck read more

Stopped here so we could support local, family-owned business. The owner, was rude, made jokes about women and overall, did not appreciate my effort to get to this very out of the way place. The pulled pork was average, with store BBQ sauce, and store cole slaw. I would never stop here again, do not suggest you do either. read more
