Great food and great service. Would definitely come again. The scenery was also amazing. Thanks for a great time

We never would've found this if it weren't for Yelp. It was off the beaten path which was welcomed after being on I44 for some time. What a great setting on a pond, ducks swimming, a chicken running around the area and cows grazing in the fields. I had the pulled pork and sweet potato fries. The pork was a little dry but the barbecue choices were good. My sister had the hamburger with a side of fried apples which were both good. And my son had a hot dog with fries which was good. We were surprised the sides were each an additional $1. A very friendly couple of staff members who were attentive. read more

Randy's Roadkill BBQ & Grill is a roadside bbq shack located on a long curvy country road just off highway 44. I stopped in with some friends on the way back home for a late lunch. We arrived and were quickly seated and immediately took notice of the unique location and decorations. Randy's is located on a farm overlooking a pond with free roaming ducks. The service here was slightly questionable as our waitress forgot about our drinks and often disappeared several times. She had forgot about the drinks so long we were just about to get up and get the drinks ourselves. As far as the food goes we started off with an order of the Fried Gouda Mac & Cheese Bites, these were delicious however I really didn't notice and of the macaroni noodles in the bites, but the cheese was creamy and absolutely delicious. For my meal I went with the 2 Meat Plate, and selected the ribs and beef brisket. The meat was good, however I found the ribs to be slightly lacking in flavor and the brisket to be just a little dry. The sauces helped really add some flavor, you could choose from Randy's and Kansas City Style sauce. I personally preferred Randy's BBQ Sauce as it had a much better taste and really paired well with the bbq. I also had a side of green beans and fried apples, both were good but the fried apples were delicious. I can only imagine how they would have tasted as a desert with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, lol! Overall this was a good stop and a decent value for the amount of food that was received, however I don't see myself getting back here anytime soon. read more

Great food! One of the best barbecue sandwiches I've ever had. Their homemade sauce is fantastic. Fun decor. Definitely worth the visit!

Very good pulled pork pizza, fries, and Mac and cheese. The service is very good and the owners chocolate cake is excellent. It is also only 3 miles of the highway and the view out of the windows are cool. read more

Great food and service always. Kathy, the owner is wonderful. Everything on the menu is delicious!! Open Fri, Sat and Sunday

We loved this restaurant! The BBQ aroma when you walk up is amazing. This place is a little off the beaten path, but definitely worth the drive. The restaurant is doing a good job with COVID guidelines; tables are spaced, there is outside seating and the server wiped down every inch of the table & chairs with a bleach solution. We tried the brisket, pulled pork, turkey & sausage - they were all very good, but the brisket was the best. In addition to the great food and cute decor, the service was excellent. We will definitely be back! read more

We were passing through town on a trip from MI to TX and picked Rolla, MO as a mid point. As I often do, I consulted Yelp for some dinner ideas. We visited Randy's and had the best BBQ in our lives! The smothered chicken and smoked turkey were to die for! My husband loved the ribs and brisket. Everything was so tender and had a lovely smoke on it. Randy's BBQ sauce is SO GOOD!!! This will be a must do whenever we go through town!!!! read more

We went here because the name of the place sounded interesting. It did not disappoint. We had the pulled pork, brisket and fried catfish. It was all good. The place was located a bit from town but worth the drive. read more

Randy's Roadkill BBQ was amazing! (Including the name) The service was great, everyone was very friendly, and Randy talked to us personally for quite a while. The food was delicious. The Meat was tender, but not fall-off-the-bone, and Randy's homeade BBQ sauce is sweet yet spicy and compliments everything perfectly. However, the meat is so good it doesn't need it. We loved it so much we bought shirts! I highly recommend going there if youre ever around Rolla, Missouri. read more

Amazing food. This place is secluded in the countryside but well worth the drive. Hidden gem for sure!

Don't let the outside fool you, inside the small building is very quaint and the food and service was outstanding. My daughter had the ribs and said they were great, I had brisket and smoked sausage both were outstanding. Only regret was we're both too full to try a fried pie. read more

What a GREAT place. We were in Rolla for the strawberry festival and wanted something different to eat. We were pleasantly surprised!! Don't let the outside of the building fool you! The wait staff was wonderful and friendly. The food was amazing. We will be back. read more

I am very stingy with 5 stars, but this is as good as barbeque gets. The atmosphere is great, the service it great, and the food is awesome. Rolla does not have many restaurants that I would recommend to out of town visitors, but this is sure one of them. Randy is a big believer in using spices. Try using the sauce in the shorter bottle...it is Randy's orginal sweet and spicey recipe and may be soon coming to store near you. Also, just like a good steak, you don't need to smother the meat with sauce. It can stand alone. read more

Randy knows how to smoke meat! The ribs and smoked sausage were awesome as was the smoked turkey! Randy had a few homemade sauces which were really tasty, especially the chipotle BBQ sauce. The meats though were so good, you didn't even need any sauce. We also had the roadkill chips which were made with homemade chips, delicious baked beans and brisket... Definitely try these out! The sides were also pretty good, especially the beans, onion rings, and sweet potato fries. The restaurant itself was clean and overlooked a small lake. Randy came over and talked to us for a bit and gave us some recommendations on what to order. It's always nice seeing a restaurant owner interacting with customers and showing their passion for their food. read more

The best BBQ in Rolla and anywhere around it. We drove 40 minutes for it based off reviews and I'm so glad we did. Everything tasted amazing and the outside view was awesome. We didn't feel like we were even in Missouri! Will definitely come here again. read more

From the time we were seated , to when we were ready to leave, Randy (owner & MO native) was a ball of energy! The restaurant's interior is very homey , warm, rustic & all things American. We liked the deer heads hanging & the funny quotes posted. There's also a bar section (Prohibition on Sundays) where the restaurant's theme continued. I really wish we visited in the day time so I could see the full beauty of the property. Our waitress was a pleasant & personable young lady who seemed to enjoy working there. Now about the food! Let me start by saying that Randy was very confident in his restaurant's product when he was going over the various choices with us. Our 1st thoughts were "of course he'd have pride in the food, he owns the place". Take his word, better yet take my word for it ; the food is really good! You can't beat getting a great meal for a good price. Every thing I tried was good & my colleagues agreed & they're brutally honest. The mac & cheese bites were crisp balls of smooth Gouda cheese & macaroni. Their BBQ wings are flash fried so just the right amount of crisp skin and tender, tasty meat. BBQ nachos came with house chips, pinto beans , cheese & topped with shredded beef. The 2 meat plate came with a choice of 2 sides (I had the green beans & potato salad. We were all a tad lethargic after our meal but still managed to make room somewhere in our bodies for some of Randy's homemade, moist, flavorful cheesecake. If I did make a New Years resolution on not pigging out, tonight would've been my downfall. Stopping by at Randy's Roadkill was definitely worth the 40 minute drive ! Don't take my word for it , actually check this establishment out for yourself. I haven't been to many restaurants where the owner will come out & shoot the shit with patrons. Thank you Randy for being hospitable , kind & for sharing your story with us! read more

This was our first time here and we were not disappointed. From the time we walked in you could smell the bbq. Atmosphere was fantastic, service was quick, and food was great. It has been many years trying to find a good smoked sausage and this place knocked it out of the park. The brisket was sliced thin and as a result a little on the dry side, but that's really me knit picking because it smelled delicious. This place is off the beaten path, but well worth it...trust me. read more

Every time we go to Rolla for a visit to grandma's, we have to make at least one stop at Randy's Roadkill. The ambiance is great and my daughter loves watching the animals out at the farm. So many menu options to choose from and all the meat is delicious so it's hard to choose. My personal favorite is the turkey but my husband loves the ribs. Randy's own barbeque sauce is really good and perfect on just about anything. The seasoned fries, loaded chips and onion rings are also favorites. read more

Very nice restaurant. The food is excellent, great service, friendly, and nice decor. Comfortable bar. NO SMOKING! This is one of Rolla's best kept secrets. Be sure to engage Randy in a stimulating conversation! :) Located on Highway E just 3 miles from Rolla. read more

Alright, its a few miles out of town but its kind of a nice drive and the scenery once you get your table is bucolic. This place smells like seriously good bbq and it delivers seriously good bbq. Portions are ample without being too large. Service is good and Randy is fun to talk to. Some people might be put off by the patriotic and outdoorsy decor. Those people should drive their Prius to the nearest tofu place and let the rest of us enjoy an American original. Well done! read more

The food here was excellent!:). Smoked chicken, brisket & ribs! Very clean! Wait staff was a tad inexperienced, but over we would highly recommend it! One tip.....they need to get a "biker friendly" parking area! It was all gravel! read more

I walked into Randy's Roadkill last week 45 minutes until close. The waitress kept walking past us and finally I just ask "do we sit wherever we want"? She said the kitchen has already stop serving food. This is a bit annoying for several reasons. If you have hours posted to your website and to your establishment door that say that you're open until 8 p.m. You should be seating customers up until 8 p.m. It sounded to me like they wanted to get out the door and 6 top that walked in would have interfered with plans. This is the first restaurant I have ever been refused service for being closed when they're hours still say that they're open. If they do not want any new customers passed 7:15 then the hour should indicate that they're open until 7:15 not 8 p.m.. This is quite the little drive from Rolla and to be refused service at the door will guarantee I will not attempt to go back and eat at this establishment. I grew up in Rolla, Missouri and when I come back I'm always looking for the new hot restaurant. However, coupled with the customer service and the staff being rude. I would not try this establishment again. It's sad I was really in the mood for barbecue as well. read more

Fantastic bbq! Randy and the staff were great and friendly. Pretty location. Thank you for a great experience!

Outstanding. Stopped in on a recent visit to the area. Great view of the countryside from the back patio and outstanding BBQ. Sausage was packed with flavor, pulled pork was good, and the smothered chicken was incredible. Onion rings and beans also delicious. Enjoyed some good convo at the bar with Randy in a lively Friday night environment. Good stuff. read more

This place is hands down the best BBQ I've ever had. The appetizers were amazing, and the place itself was charming. Staff was friendly and accommodating. It's not very far off of 44, and worth the extra few miles to get there. The owner happened to be there, super friendly and very likable. We will be coming back here, every year, on our annual cross country trip. Thank you so much for an excellent lunch. We ordered the fried portobello mushrooms, fried Mac and cheese bites, jalapeño bites, sweet corn nuggets, pulled pork sandwich and 1/2 rack of ribs with crazy good baked beans. EVERYTHING was superb. read more
