She was awesome and hooked me up with all three, which turned out to be the perfect move. The sandwich was massive--easily a third of a pound of meat. I went for the fatty cut, and it didn't disappoint; you could see a legit smoke ring on the meat and the deep, smoky flavor stood up on its own even before adding a drop of sauce. It was a solid experience from start to finish. I'm definitely swinging back through when I need a quick, heavy fix.

Once you walk in, you walk up to a counter place your order and they will call out your name on the order is ready for pick up. There is also a fully self service station for sauces as well as Takeaway boxes if you need them. The menu offers a lot of different combinations and samplers and meats from pork to chicken. The sides are also a little bit unique in the sense that the vegetable sides also have added bacon, which is great to see. I personally love to see hush puppies, which is a very antiquated and rare to find option for food. And they did not disappoint. Overall, I would say from the sampler of the ribs and the chicken were fantastic as well as the pulled pork. The brisket was OK, but did not necessarily stand out. We did try four different barbecue sauces, which were all fantastic. The hush puppies as I stated earlier were absolutely delicious and I would come back just for these. We also got the corn pudding, which was a little bit on the sweeter side, but made and baked fresh just like everything else here. And this was a great alternative to cornbread. To top it all off, the staff here was so super nice, especially the young man at the counter when you first walked in as he also offered up a sample of the corn pudding because I've never heard of corn pudding nor did I ever tried it and this was also my first visit. I would definitely come back here again, and/or visit any of their other locations closer to Indy.

Seating is also tight but there is room in the back and tables outside. Order at the counter and wait for your number to be called for your meal. You can also see the pit with the meat cooking. There are plenty of options though there is no true 2 meat plate. That's ok because I made it work. I went with the spare ribs meal and then took the Chuck Norris home to my wife. The ribs were tasty but they gave my jaw a workout, which I do not like. The Chuck Norris though was an impressive sandwich. It came on Texas Toast with pulled pork, brisket, fried egg, bacon, onion, and Pimento cheese. The brisket or pulled pork would be what I would go to next time. For my sides, I had beans, potato salad, and Mac and cheese. All were phenomenal but potato salad was the best! It was a mustard base whipped style. The beans were the pinto beans/ranch style with tomatoes and a vinegar taste. The mac and cheese was creamy with goldfish on top. There are 4 sauces and all were phenomenal. I wish I could take all of them home!. You have the tomato bases in a mild, zesty flavor and a spicy, habanero flavor. There is also Carolina Mustard and Bama white. I think I loved the mild the most. There is fresh-brewed sweet tea which is hard to come by in Indiana but this Bama Boy would love it to be more sweeter. It was a step above water. The Chuck Norris, sauces, and sides make Rusty Silo easily a 4-star. If the spare ribs were easier to chew, a 5-star from this guy would have been given.

We walked in and we're immediately greeted and we asked if we could sit in the bar area. There is a divider between the bar area and the family section so you can bring the kids! As soon as you walk in the door you were hit with the great smell of barbecue. I always enjoy walking in a place and smelling that and then leaving and still smelling like the restaurant the rest of the night. We were served by the bartender and she was very nice and made some good suggestions for the menu. She also let us sample one of the draft beers they had on tap. They have Yuengling Lager on tap which always makes me happy. I ordered the pulled pork grilled cheese sandwich with the mac and cheese on the side. The sandwich was just filling enough. It left me full but not stuffed. The mac and cheese was a good side and had a good portion. My wife got the pulled pork nachos and had enough left over that she was able to have lunch the next day!! The limited hours make this restaurant tough for us to visit sometime, but I'm glad that we did and we will definitely be back!

We got pulled pork, sausage, and brisket. It came with two sides. We got the green beans and pasta salad. It was $28.75. Your meal comes with free cheddar garlic biscuits with a side of apple butter. The pulled pork with some of the best we have ever had. The brisket was good as well, flavored nicely. We received three large pieces, however, there was quite a bit of fat on the pieces. We received two sausage links. The sausage was slightly spicy, which we like. However, of the three meats it was our least favorite. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. She recommended the green beans. Her description of them was right on target and they were very good. Service was very fast and our bill was accurate. They are first come, first serve, and do not accept reservations. We would return again.

They have a little robot that brings the food out named "Parky-aka lame" but I guess it's is a little unique. Ambiance: 1 step above fast food. Set down but nothing spectacular. One thing I thought was strange is they charge $1.50 for a sample of beer. We was coming off the interstate so did it's purpose but would not go back if I lived there

I figure if this guy is standing in a blizzard to get some bbq - I gotta get in there. I pull a u-turn and head back to the restaurant parking lot. Fighting the blizzard to get inside - I can see now that it isn't a guy - it's a dummy - well one of us was a dummy. I went into this cavernous joint and was met by half-a-dozen pink steel pigs. I knew I was in the right place. I ordered rib tip dinner and was pleasantly surprised. Those were the meatest rib tips I ever had. They were think and smoky and soon the blizzard melted away. I was hooked. Their hot sauce isn't hot - it's nothing special. This meat was way to perfect to mess with much sauce anyway. The cole slaw was creamy and amazing. The mac-n-cheese was perfect. I sat alone in this cavern of smoke-tastic delight - listening to classic rock that was eerily projected against one wall and eating the best rib-tips on the planet. I don't get out that often - but I am going to start looking for reasons to go to Westville IL.

Talked with - I believe one of the owners - she said it was just her and her husband running the place. The restaurant was quiet with just us and one other couple inside on a Sunday afternoon. We ordered two brisket sandwiches and an order of pulled pork nachos. The food was good, brisket was a little dry, but no real complaints. They had 3 sauce options you could put into to-go containers yourself to try out, we opted for the southern comfort I believe and it was good BBQ! Also a nice touch I saw is they sold farm fresh eggs. My only two critiques would be phone etiquette and inventorying expired product. We called ahead of time to make sure the restaurant was open with it being a holiday weekend. Once the phone was answered on the other end, it was silent for about 30 seconds then we were given just a "Hello?". We had to confirm we were calling Cherry Red Roasters instead of calling someone's personal phone. We were given sour cream I believe in a packet to go with our nachos, but the expiry date on the packet was 5/13/2025 when the date we dinned was 5/25/2025.
