We got the poutine with pulled pork- crispy fries, tender pork, cheese curds, gravy. It was good and a huge portion, a little bit too salty. We also tried: -Brisket- great! So tender -Pulled pork- great! Loved the peach bbq sauce -Mac n cheese- a little bland but made for a great leftover bowl the next day with bbq pork on top -Tater tot casserole- our favorite side! It's just so good. -Elote- good, little bit of a kick -Cornbread- epic! read more

A delicious experience with some high quality bbq. It's really hard to find good bbq that can be compared to the south. This was the closest tasting bbq than anything else in the area. They also have poutine which was a pleasant surprise and really delicious with the chicken. The servers at the counter answered our questions quickly and were very informative on each meat type. Everything tasted great and our cocktails were also extremely fresh/flavorful as well. read more

Station One Smokehouse - Main eating area - Barbeque Near Me - Yorkville, Illinois

We've eaten at the Plainfield location and it's one of my favorites bbq spots. It wasn't crowded when I went. Pulled pork - delicious, moist, flavorful Bourbon peach bbq sauce - my favorite, must try! Mac and cheese - my favorite side. Not overly saucy, great flavor. Elotes - delicious, one of my favorite elote dishes. Off the cob Tater casserole - very heavy, good flavor Banana pudding - tasty, good size, enough banana and wafers. read more

Service was good. Food was great. Had a birthday party there it was fabulous. Nice indoor outdoor outdoors.

This place is basing their bbq off Texas and I have had Texas bbq and they are close. I think the brisket has a little to go but everything was good. We were not disappointed just not quite Texas yet. They are new so I can't wait to try them again next visit. I thought the sausage was suppose to be jalapeño and cheddar and it was just plain, but had flavor. When we were there they had 3 different bbq sauces : spicy, peach and Texas style.. they all were good. Don't sleep on that peach. This is set up cafeteria style. So you go up and select your food. You watch them cut and weigh out the meats. I had a few drinks and that bartender did his thing in the whiskey sours!! read more

Good is very good. Love the brisket and pulled pork. Portions are large. I would recommend Station One as one of the best barbecue places in the area. read more

Food is always excellent! Our favorites are all of the meats, broccoli salad, elote, baked potato. It's all great!

Best fucking corn bread , great options always delicious but I really just came here to tell yall about the cornbread

I've been here a total of three times over the last year+. First time I give it a 4 1/2. The pulled pork was moist, and perfectly cooked. The second time I had the pulled chicken, would give it a 3, it was dry and average at best. The other day, I decided to try one more time and just go with the pulled pork. It was dry and cold. My wife also thought it was undercooked. This place is pretty pricey, so I expect a lot better. read more

The food is delicious. The staff is friendly. The prices are reasonable. We will be back soon.

The pork here is amazing and the sides are so good. I had the Brussel sprouts and tater tot casserole. Can't wait to try the brisket and the rest of the sides. read more

Station One Smokehouse - Pork sandwich, tater tot casserole and Brussel sprouts. Added pickles and onions. Every bite delicious. - Barbeque Near Me - Yorkville, Illinois

One of the best pulled pork! The ambience is laid back and very friendly staff. The service was fast! Would recommend.

Good quality Bbq but PRICEY!!! if you are a barbecue lover I definitely would recommend you try station one smokehouse barbecue. I think you will be pleasantly surprised they have lots of different selections of smoked meats. However, it is one of those spots where they are gonna dig into your wallet. The fries are fresh the cornbread and the honey butter is fire. My favorite when I go over there is to get the corn beef sandwich. Absolutely reminds me of Katz's deli in New York City and I think it's rumor that the owner of station one actually interned at Katz deli in New York City but I haven't spoken with them to confirm so that's hearsay but man that corn beef sure it does taste like Katz deli. And that's a superb compliment. read more

Absolutely horrible.. It should be called station two for all the time I spent on the toilet. They charge by the pound, which I get, but half the weight is the fat on the brisket because they do not trim it like other bbq places do. The price for the sampler is $60 must be the cost for the half of loaf of bread I got. No point in sharing all the details, but thank God the bathroom at this gas station has handles by the toilet... The stream of station two coming out at Mach 2 would have sent me to the ceiling... Btw, you can probably go to aldi to get the turkey.. it tastes the same. read more

We ordered pick-up, and the process was fast and easy! The food was absolutely delicious. I had the brisket sandwich with peach BBQ sauce--it was packed with flavor and perfectly cooked! I initially thought it came with fries, but it didn't. Luckily, we also ordered the mac and cheese and the tater tot casserole, which were both incredible! The casserole was especially a standout, with a rich and comforting flavor. The portions were generous, and the meal was super filling. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'll definitely be back to try more items from the menu! read more

Just picked up food for the first time here and it has the best smoked brisket I've had anywhere near Yorkville! I failed to get a good photo of the brisket sandwich before I demolished it, but it had lots of bark pieces and a decent smoke ring in the cuts. I also got the honey butter cornbread and creamy coleslaw. Everything was on point for taste, texture, and freshness. The service was very good. Everyone working there was kind and helpful. I mentioned it was my first time trying them out and they were very helpful offering me a side of pickles and a bbq sauce sampler to go with my food. The inside of the restaurant was industrial style and had (as you could predict) a firehouse theme. There's a firehose in place of a velvet or leather rope for the line which was a nice touch. They have a full service wet bar and convertible patio that opens in good weather and closes with windows to look out of in bad weather. This is my new go-to for good bbq when I don't feel like doing a long smoke on the Traeger. Highly recommend. read more

Excellent bar b Que. one of the best I've had. Excellent service and the best bread pudding EVER! Their BarBQ is also outstanding.

Amazing brisket along with smoked wings, potato salad and fried Brussels sprouts. If I lived here I'd eat here on the regular. 1/2 off Wine Wednesdays too read more

I was here on a Saturday night. We decided to take our chances and stop by and see how long the wait was. We were there around 7 pm. The line was pretty long but we decided to wait. They have a location in Plainfield that I have yet to visit. I did not know what to expect. I was surprised to see that you order at the counter, kind of like Chipotle. There is a lot on the menu to choose from although some things were already sold out. They had signs with their sold out items which was helpful. We went with the chopped brisket, wings, pastrami, ribs and the pork belly. For the sides we ordered green beans, vinegar coleslaw and the tater tot casserole, and brussel sprouts. We sat ourselves at the bar and ordered drinks. The food was all fantastic and did not disappoint. The meat was all delicious and cooked perfectly. The sides were all amazing too. I also got a little cup of pickles and those were delicious!! I'd go back for just the pickles, they were that good!! The bartender took great care of us. Giving us to go containers and bagging up our stuff. He was super attentive and friendly. The restaurant is pretty big and there is plenty of seats. I can't wait to go back!! read more

Food was cooked to perfection. Great taste service was great. Prices were very good. Service was fast. Restaurant was clean.

Great BBQ and tap! Bar tender was attentive and kept our glasses full. I have to add that the bar stools are way more comfortable than Plainfield Station 1! We got in early to avoid the crazy line that formed...but it appeared to be a well oiled machine for only being open a short period of time. We'll definitely be back and can't wait for the nice weather to enjoy those open bay doors! read more

Station One Smokehouse - 4 ribs, half a chicken, beans n pork belly, green beans, corn bread, and a hot link. - Barbeque Near Me - Yorkville, Illinois

I have been to the Plainfield location multiple times and was really looking forward to having one three miles from my front door. My wife and I stopped in on a Thursday night to have some brisket, Elote corn, and that delicious corn bread. It did not disappoint. The brisket was tender and delicious with their spicy BBQ sauce, corn tasty, and the cornbread with sweet butter was fantastic. Total price for our meal was $69 with a tip. read more

Really nice restaurant and bar. Good sized bar area with a lot of seating and the dining area was large with a nice outdoor patio. The food was great! My spouse had the smoked pastrami sandwich and tater tot casserole and she loved it! I had a taste = delish! I had the smoked brisket sandwich, Jalapeño-cheddar sausage link, collard greens (the only place in Illinois that has collard greens!) and coleslaw (they offer creamy and vinegar) all were delicious! The service was the only miss as the bartender was inattentive and looked like they didn't want to be there. We will definitely be back. Gonna try the ribs next time. The brisket was great! A barbecue gem in Illinois! read more

I purchased a full size brisket that was supposed to serve 15 t 20. It literally was the smallest size and barely enough for 8 people. It was pretty packaged and re heat instructions said boil. It was the driest brisket I've ever had. Paid $200 for food that was horrible. read more

I love BBQ, especially Texas style. Been eagerly waiting for this place to open which seems to have taken forever. Waited for the opening weekend crowd to calm down, but they were still packed tonight. Had 6 different types of meat, the ribs and brisket were fantastic. Pulled chicken and smoked turkey equally good. The cornbread and pinto beans were great as well. Mac n cheese was pretty plain. All around a very good menu with a lot of delicious meat. This may become a weekly routine read more

Great food but pretty pricey! They weigh the meat and all of the sides are a la carte. However, the food was delicious! They do need a few more sauce options. Wasn't a huge fan of what they offered. We sat at the bar and the bartender was great! The drink I had was delicious as well! I will go back! read more

I'm a big fan of station one from their Plainfield to Yorkville location. The hardest part is always deciding what to get! I love the smoked pastrami and the brisket burger is incredible. I've never been disappointed with any of their sides but my favorites are the tater casserole and elotes. I've probably been to The yorkville location at least half a dozen times already read more

The food is so good i can't name a single thing on the menu that its amazing!! The outside seating is where its at all the natural sunlight there is plenty of room and you don't feel like your sitting on top of each other. The service is a little slow as this is a new establishment and i feel like there still getting there footing with how to staff the line to make it go a little faster. read more

I really liked their food. Nice flavor and a ton of it. The only thing I don't like is I would have liked my items warmed. The pulled pork was wonderful. Frito pie was good. I would just like melted cheese. Super fast and friendly. As we are the line was out the door. Great new place for Yorkville. read more

This place has a lot of potential. The ribs were fatty and very salty. However they are very new and learning. Give them a try while they perfect the talent they have in making this a delicious establishment. read more

Best BBQ in the state of Illinois hands down. Brisket, Ribs don't pass up on the Reuben Sandwich. Crazy good! Great service. Beer list is solid and prices are by the lb. So you can make your own sampler platter. read more

One of the best bbq places I've been to in Illinois. We had brisket, burnt ends, and wings and everything was melt in your mouth amazing. For sides we had cornbread, elote, mac n cheese, and tater tot casserole and all were fantastic but the tater tot casserole and cornbread were my favorite. Love the set up of the restaurant too and being able to sit outside and inside. Everyone was super friendly. Wish we knew about this place sooner. Will absolutely be returning! read more

Great addition to our community! Wonderful food, great space, kind employees, great drinks/beverages. Overall, it was a wonderful experience. We highly recommend the pastrami, either as a sandwich or by the 1/2 lb. Also, cornbread with BBQ is a must, and they make it extra delicious with their not-too-sweet honey butter. Love the sauce station, nice and clean, and choices were fun! Can't wait to go back, it's gonna be hard to stay away. read more
