Stopped here for linner (lunch and dinner) while working in Dickson. This spot is the very definition of "Don't judge a book by its cover." There were signs saying 'Drive through only' and it wrapped around the smoker pit, and stack of hardwood. The smoke/meaty smell was making me hungry and stomach growl before I could get to the order speaker. The menu was focused on BBQ staples, from pulled pork, ribs, chicken, and brisket on the meat side. Sides were as you would expect both kinds of slaw and other dishes that make you take notice. They worked with me to get me an out of town hungry guy tray...ok I ordered 1/2 # of most meats. I ended up with brisket, smoked chicken, pulled pork, and some ribs. The half smoked chicken was some of the best I have had in my life, and was the fist thing I finished off. Lots of great flavor and tenderness. The ribs were tender, flavorful and made me want more. The brisket was tender, juicy and just full of flavor. The pulled pork was also good and very tasty. I'd go back for more if I am ever in the area read more

We were told this is where the best BBQ in Dickson is and it didn't let down. The moist brisket was tasty and fall apart moist, but the real winner was the smoked chicken. It fell apart and had such great flavor. While the sides are good, they don't speak volumes like the meats. The macaroni to me is just generic, but the potato salad was legit. They only had banana pudding on the weekend so we couldn't try that. It really is good barbecue and quick! Large portions and decent prices. Friendly faces too! Very welcoming. read more

Now that was BBQ. We pulled through the drive through in our RV so someone came out to give us direction for how to pull off the side so they could bring us our food (awning was a little low for us). Ribs were phenomenal. Chicken was superb. Pulled pork was amazing. Brisket was delicious. Spicy sauce was on point. Potato salad was also very good! Would eat here again in a heart beat. read more

Best bbq in Dickson. Mac and cheese and baked beans also very good. BBQ made several times a week.

The chicken and ribs they give here are astronomical.Mot mentioning that they gave us free brisket on top of everything amazingGreat prices and great quality for food. If I were you I would definitely get some if I were passing by Ronnie's Q BBQ read more

Ronnie's Q BBQ - This is the brisket which is so juicy and delicious. - Barbeque Near Me - Dickson, Tennessee

They have some of the best bbq and sides in Dickson. If you haven't tried them yet, and you like bbq, you should definitely give them a try.

The pork potato cost 8.50 and had about two tablespoons of pork on it. Gigantic potato but barely any toppings. The mac and cheese was just really bland. Completely unseasoned. Could have at least had pepper. read more

We are on a road trip and made our way from California to Dallas and on our way to Ohio, I looked this place up on Yelp and saw all the great reviews. Hubby ordered the pork rib plate and I had the brisket. The brisket is offered lean (without the fat) or with fat. Of course I got it with fat. I like that they offered coleslaw two different ways, with vinegar or with mayo. So we tried one each. I enjoyed the vinegar one, not that anything was wrong with the mayo coleslaw, i had just never had cole slaw with only vinegar dressing. Hubby got the white beans as his second side and I ordered the macaroni and cheese. We were able to meet the owner who was awesome. He was very cordial and even gave us pie to take for the road. It was awesome to try some Tennessean BBQ, which is different from the way we make it at home and the way I was raised up eating it, as my father is from Texas. Thanks so much Ronnie!!! It was a pleasure I forgot to take a pic. Of hubby's meal. read more

Always amazing BBQ and Ribs. Great smoke and taste. Excellent service too! Ronnie Qi's is the real deal family owned and operated!

The food is always good. Great service! Decent portions. We eat here pretty often. Just wish they had the room for indoor seating.

I can't understand why this place is so popular. All sides are ones that you can buy at Walmart or Kroger. I'd go somewhere else.

Great everything! Love brisket, pulled pork, slaw. We enjoy everything we've ever had there!

Oh my, what great BBQ. The price is good, the food is outstanding. Why would you go anywhere else. Ist ausgerechnet. read more

The barbecue sliders are the way to go! I always have food leftover for the next day, or I just order one meal and share with a friend. You won't be disappointed! The food is phenomenal! read more

Best BBQ in Dickson county. The smoked Chicken is also very good. Keep up the good work.

I was in Dickson today for work. Someone recommended this place as the best barbecue in Dickson. I had to check it out. Inside is an ordering area. You walk in and order. Then its just take out. They have tables outside. It was raining though. Here's where they earn every one of their 5 stars: The food was very good. They were patient with me in ordering as a first timer. I took my food outside and it started raining. When Ronnie himself saw me sitting at the picnic table. He said I could eat inside his smoke house that was covered. I walked inside and saw the gigantic smoke chamber. Unbelievable. He opened it up and showed me inside what was cooking. This man takes pride in his work. I got the large barbecue sandwich and fries. There looked to be a lot on the menu too, including ribs, brisket, chicken. I thought that his gesture was kind and he didn't even trash talk other barbecue places in town. It came recommended as the best barbecue in Dickson and they did not disappoint. read more

Amazing staff and most delicious food! Convenient drive thru with fast and friendly service!

I love their BBQ nachos and brisket!! So juicy and delicious. Definitely home grown BBQ. Must try! Consistently great food. Sides are pretty unremarkable but the meat is on point! read more

This place supposedly sells pulled pork but in my experience I can hardly call it pulled. Recently I went there and ordered 2 lbs. of what was supposed to be pulled pork. When I opened the container what I actually had was 2 huge pieces of pork,pulled it wasn't. Probably wouldn't have left this review but this isn't the first time this has happened.......not even close. If any other BBQ joint is open I stay away from Ronnie Q's and go elsewhere. Do I recommend them........NO. read more

My husband and I stopped here after hiking at Montgomery Bell State Park. It is a little difficult to see from the road, but you can definitely smell the smoker as you're approaching! I ordered the chicken plate with baked beans and Mac N cheese, and my husband got the rib plate (also w/ Mac and Cheese). The drumstick portion of my chicken was great...it fell off the bone. But the rest of it was pretty dry. The macaroni and cheese was really runny, and the baked beans were just ok. While the rib meat fell off the bone, they were pretty fatty. I wish we would have tried the brisket. I would go back and give it another shot to try the brisket. Oh, and we had the banana pudding for dessert, which was good. Also - keep in mind that if you eat outside there, there is a chance you will smell like the smoker! We ate outside, and didn't mind, though, because we were in our hiking clothes and headed home. read more

Really good Brisket & BBQ. And good hard working honest people. The only complaint I have is the drive through is very slow. I work close by and no one from my work will go at lunch break because it take way to long. read more

Wow, wow, wow! I had them cater for a graduation party of 35 people. Prior to this, I was having issues with another local BBQ, and that's when someone has recommended Ronnie Q. I called the establishment and immediately the woman on the phone directed me to Ronnie by giving his cellphone number so he's able to answer all of my questions. He was absolutely accommodating! I called two weeks prior, and we were able to pay ahead of time as well. He was incredibly kind and I really appreciate his willingness to work with my requests regarding the food. I wanted the food to delivered and set-up as I was not able to be present due to the graduation event. He arrived half an hour early - which I was exactly half an hour away, so he was willing to wait till I arrived. Once I arrived, he dropped everything off, and left. During the event of the party, he texted me asking if everything was all good, and I absolutely appreciated that he took the time to check-up on us. Now, the food. Oh my goodness was it phenomenal. I had ordered ribs, brisket, mac & cheese, and baked beans. I ordered the mac & cheese because it was highly recommended, and I absolutely agree! It was so creamy, and tasty! I enjoyed the baked beans because they were sweet with a slight kick to it! The brisket and ribs were amazing as they fell apart and off the bone! We had a lot of food leftover, and I stored them in the freezer - let me say, even having it as leftovers still taste just as great as it did when it arrived! I was absolutely impressed and happy to have chosen Ronnie Q. The food was great, customer service was top-notch, and the price was definitely worth it all! I used to go to another local bbq location, but I am officially never going back there, and sticking to Ronnie Q! Thank you for everything! read more

Best BBQ in Dickson! Try the BBQ or Chicken bowl. Nice guy running the place. Drive thru only, but the cater too!

Best BBQ in Dickson county! Hands down, Ronnie and his family have the best around. I have had BBQ from everyplace in Dickson county, which is hard to do with all of the crazy hours of operation that each of them have. I first tried ronnieq when GE sold on Saturdays at Chappels. Very glad to see that they opened a place to serve during the week. The brisket is unbelievable. You don't even need sauce for it. Vinegar or mayo slaw options, excellent sides, and damn good cornbread. Again, my vote for best in Dickson !!! read more

Always super friendly! Great BBQ! Great prices! Love their deserts as well! Totally homemade feel

Best BBQ in town the brisket is next level it just melts in your mouth

Ronnie and his staff catered my May 2016 wedding weekend welcome dinner. We are from out of state, and someone at our wedding venue suggested we try their BBQ. After a BBQ of Dickson County where we tasted four BBQ joints over two days, we felt that Ronnie was easy to work with and had the best brisket we'd ever tasted let alone in Dickson County, TN. -During our unannounced visit during our BBQ tour, Ronnie's staff treated us well and surprisingly gave us a free sample. We thanked them profusely and bought few other things to thank them financially. -They had great pricing on our bulk catering purchase of ribs, brisket, and pulled pork for 100 people - Ronnie was easy to reach and friendly via phone. - Ronnie included chaffing dishes as a last minute perk because our rental fell thru. - EVERYONE loved the BBQ. And, folks ate the leftovers during the weekend long wedding festivities. read more

I'd say Whitt's and these guys are on par. Different flavor of BBQ, equally as good!! read more

This bbq is seriously soooo good. Order beef and pork. The beef was a generous portion of meat with a juicy piece of fat on the top that was so flavorful. The pork was tinder and mouthwatering. The green beans and Mac and cheese were great also. read more

Best BBQ in Middle TN! I personally enjoy the chicken sandwich combo that comes with fries and a large drink...and the Hot Sauce is a must Get! read more

Their food is amazing and the folks are super nice. You know it's a serious BBQ joint when there is no indoor seating. You order inside, and can take food to go or eat at picnic tables outside. My favorite was probably the brisket, but everything was so amazing I couldn't say for sure. Their BBQ sauce is rich and a tad more sweet than sour. read more

I go here occasionally to get the full slab of ribs and love them! I also ordered catering for my son's birthday back in June, great service and great food! I ordered the pulled pork for BBQ, cole slaw, and Mac & cheese. Great portions for the price! Mr. Ronnie was very friendly and answered all questions I had. Was very happy and would definitely order from them again. read more

I cannot express with words the hospitality of the folks that own and work at Ronnie's. It reminds me of growing up and everyone meeting for Sunday dinner at your aunt or grandmothers house...try this, try that. And the pie...oh my. Just reminded me of Southern hospitality. You really need to give this place a try. Upon realizing I wasn't from Dickson they asked me back when I return to town! Now onto the food. Very good. We have four to do orders....ready on time and tasty. I was so pleased with the half chicken and the "flap-jacks." Just doesn't come better! The lady in charge (assume it's Mrs. Ronnie) even gave me a sample of the very tasty beef brisket. Make sure to save room for pie...pecan, chocolate, or chocolate pecan. My friends had several different dishes...all very good. read more

This was the first place we stopped to eat after our long drive from Wisconsin - and it was a great decision! Food is amazingly tasty and a good price! Ronnie the owner is very friendly! My family and I will definitely stop back before we head back home. read more

Great food and great customer service! Mopped chicken is to die for, but everything is really good! No indoor seating, but if the weather's nice, you can sit outside at picnic tables, otherwise, get it "to go." Closed on Mondays! Tiny building that's easy to miss, if you aren't looking for it, but if they're open, the smoke's rolling and the smell will guide you in! read more

Super great place to eat. Ronnie is very friendly. The brisket is awesome. Best Bbq in dickson in my opinion.

The best BBQ EVER!! I am addicted to the brisket and mac n cheese. It's quick and easy and the price is right. It's a new family favorite.
