    I finally went back for the mac and cheese again today and this time I ordered a pork salad with a side of mac and cheese. If BBQ is the whole business, I should be able to eat the meat plain and love it, but I didn't love it. I felt like I had to add sauce to really enjoy it. While ordering I was asked what salad dressing I wanted, but didn't receive any salad dressing. I also never got my side of mac and cheese, I had to go back to the front to ask for both. They were having some issues with the credit card machine, so maybe that's what caused it. The mac and cheese was, frankly, not very enjoyable. Which is a huge bummer! It felt about on par with a plastic container of mac and cheese from Walmart's deli section. I didn't like the flavor or texture. Overall, the best part of my meal was the soda from the fountain machine. Which is unfortunate. I really wanted to love this place on a second try, but I think this was my last try.

    What an absolute gem. I can't believe the portions. The ribs had a sweet rub that was magic. The staff was smiling and warm. I really appreciate that. I'm very happy I found this place.

    I got this beauty to go and I've been in a brisket coma ever since (I just woke up to write this). Last thing I remember is one of the best brisket burgers I've ever had. This place is great! There was a small wait for my order to be ready and the owner offered me a drink while I watched them slice and dice the meats. I will be returning after I make a full recovery.

    Great food! Exactly what you expect for bbq and tasty! Ribs were fall off the bone and brisket was perfect. I'd come back for sure!

    BBQ Sauce

    What? Good BBQ in Bountiful? Yes, it's true, Bountiful has some good BBQ. The smoked Turkey is awesome, tender and full of flavor. No sauce needed. The ribs are big, tender, and fall off the bone. Could have been a little juicier. The BBQ sauces are tasty. The sweet original is my favorite, they have classic Carolina Sauce, by request. It's a mustard based sauce, true to the Carolina's. Cornbread with a slab of butter on top. I think it would be better if served warm, the butter doesn't melt and would be way better if it did.

    South Davis County is a relative food desert (chain restaurant hell), so I'm always leery of trying new places here. I was pleasantly surprised with the food here. The ribs are definitely cooked properly and fell off the bone- excellent! I also really enjoyed the coleslaw and cornbread. My husband loved the Navajo taco, and the pulled pork was okay. The downfall is probably the sauces- they were just okay, and I tried the sweet and spicy options. I'd be open to trying the others, but they just weren't memorable in any way. I even had difficulty remembering which one was sweet and which was spicy (!) Ordering online was quick, and pickup was friendly. There's lots of space to eat in, but I could see that parking would be a challenge (small lot, some street parking). Would return for the ribs.

    Had a craving for some BBQ and decided to finally give Smokin Bones a try. Takeout was delicious. The ribs were so tender and the meat easily came off the bone. Pulled pork was smoky and tender. Got the BBQ beans and potato salad. Both were really good. Definitely will go back to try other items on their menu including the BBQ pizza.

    Brisket loaded fries - more than enough for 2 people to share!

    Still the best BBQ in Utah over a decade later. So glad to see this play has survived and continues to grow their menu. You can now purchase meat by the lb! And recently they have done some updates to the decor.

    Three Meat Plate - brisket pulled pork and spicy sausage

    I love this little mom and pop family run bbq restaurant. Service is friendly the owners Greg and Carol are always a great to see and catch up with. It's my favorite bbq in Utah for sure. The meats are flavorful, the sauces are delicious the sides are all homemade at the restaurant. The bbq is soo flavorful you don't even need sauce on every bite.

    My family used to love Smokin Bones, but I have a feeling it's under new ownership. We waited 40 minutes for a to go order and the food was horrible. My favorite thing used to be the Navajo taco. I'm not sure what they gave us tonight because it wasn't a scone and was totally uneatable. I'm not sure who is running that place because all I saw were teens working with no leadership. So disappointed!!

    Macc & Cheese, corn bread, ribs and brisket. Spicy bbq sauce & carolina Sauce.

    Stopped by here to get some lunch today. The atmosphere was awesome, customer service was top notch and the food is freaking delicious. I will definitely be coming back here!!!

    One Meat Plate , Potato Salad , Mac and Cheese , brisket
    Katherine W.

    Fairly good barbecue. The brisket was super tender. Ribs were a tad dry towards the ends but juicy in the middle. Mac and cheese was not our favorite, it's super saucy. The potato salad was really good though! The scone fell flat for me personally. Service was good. You walk up and order at the counter. They forgot the Carolina sauce we ordered but it was no big deal. The girl who took our order was nice. Overall if I lived closer we would come back but we wouldn't make the 40 minute drive again.

The in depth: Rj grill is just off of Main Street in the business center with Spankys, Costa Vida, etc. Just hopped in after a workout via the recommendation of my barber. The interior wasn't anything to write home about but that's not why I go somewhere to eat. I ordered the bacon cheese burger with waffle fries, and within 5-10 minutes they were out with my order. The star of the show turns out to be those fries, I don't know what seasoning they had in there but it was honestly fantastic. The burger itself was nice and juicy with chewy bacon. As I write this my mouth still feels the amount of salt that I just had so if you're wary of that here's your warning. They also had Mexican sodas and sweet treats, I didn't get any but it could be a fun addition to an outing here. In the end if you're in bountiful and want a good burger that isn't a chain, this is probably a top option. Burgers will also run you about $13.5-$16 before tax with fries included) Rating: 4.25/5

We usually go with the hamburgers and they're really quite good. Today we tried the following; Monte Cristo sandwich and it looked good and had good flavor but it was really thickly battered, too much so taking away from the flavor. 3/5 And the fluffy sandwich. Two grilled cheese sandwiches, as the buns, and a hamburger patty with mushrooms and bacon in the middle. Not something I would normally order but the guy at the counter said it was amazing with even better flavor than the burgers. It was good but I thought the bread took away from the overall flavor, needed more sauce, and the round patty doesn't fit with the square bread. And it was quite the bomb, as expected. 3/5 We'll be back but will go back to the burgers. Their fries are very good much like McDonalds fries if you like those. 4/5

It was the Monday during the holiday break after Christmas where no one is wanting to cook, so it seemed like everyone had the same idea of going out to eat. We had a party of 5 and waited at the bar for 15 minutes until our table was ready. Service was super friendly and wonderful. When we were seated, our server Sebastian was great. I forgot how much I love their garden burger patty and their garlic rosemary fries. They also have a spicy black bean option for the vegetarians/vegans. Obviously they have a ton of great options for the meat eaters primarily, I mean it's a burger bar how could they not. Needless to say, I won't be forgetting about this place ever again!
