    1/2lb Chicken Fried Steak
    Pamela H.

    We got here at 12:30 pm on a Thursday afternoon and they were busy. We were in the mood for a chicken fried steak. We of course got the okra and we decided to try the mac n cheese. The chicken fry was delicious. Lightly battered, thin and no gristle. The okra is hot and plentiful. We weren't crazy about the mac n cheese. Noodles were slightly overcooked and needed more salt. It was creamy. We met Lucky who was in mgmt and had a great conversation. We hope to see him again. We enjoy going into places and seeing the same employees. Feels like seeing family in a good way. Ice cream was good. Restaurant was clean.

    Side Hashbrown Bites

    $13.00 for this small portion. Mind you this just potatoes even asked if they could give a few more the answer was no. Over priced.. Rockwell location I wont be returning to. DONT RECOMMEND 2 thumbs DOWN Theyd rather refund $13.00 than to lose 5¢ for giving me a few more. Ill just stick to Braums. Better price cleaner meal. If there was a 0 star option, I'd choose it.

    The customer service is top tier for being a regular restaurant!!! Family friendly and the vibes is homey also everyone's having conversations and good times. The setting is clean and very well taken care of. Now the food is good for a bbq spot. We enjoyed ourselves very much belly, welly, jelly

    I don't know where to start. Let me say, service hands down from walking in to our server Dan was…read morean awesome experience. Ambience is a mix of families and folks on their lunch breaks. We watched people sing happy birthday w a giant slice of strawberry shortcake. Great portions! We ordered the judges plate and added the burnt ends along w a small side of sweet cream corn. The food! Cornbread was on point! Not grainy, overly sweet, or dry! Soft, not bitter. Champion beans are delicious, smoky, seasoned just right. Mac & cheese!!! OMG! It's just right!! Creamy, full flavor, and not bitter. Sweet cream corn, I mean, you should try it, ask for a small sample so you can decide! Burnt ends!!!! You cannot leave this place w/o trying them. We added it for an additional $4 and it was worth it! The brisket had a nice smoke ring, full of flavor. Soft and not dry at all! Juicy. The chicken fell off the bone. Tender. Well seasoned. The pull pork was perhaps my favorite. On its own it was delicious but adding some of the world champion sauce and the spicy sauce together just took it there!! Hands down, glad we made that turn and drove the extra 10m to this place on our way to California.

    This is pretty good barbecue in Oklahoma City. We were seated and served by the sweetest waitress…read moreand I think she and our little almost two-year old grandson had a great time entertaining each other. Honestly the sliced brisket left a lot to be desired and I do not think that it is the same product as the burnt ends. I am wondering if the burnt ends were from prime brisket and maybe the sliced brisket is from a lesser quality beef. That would make sense because the brisket burnt ends were absolutely divine and had lots of crispy bark that I just love. I was not really impressed by the bologna burnt ends and the mustard sauce. The bologna burnt ends lacked smokiness for me and I just did not enjoy the taste of the mustard (I normally love all mustards). So, let me tell you about the fried okra. I could eat a whole pound of that.....with ranch dressing of course. The finest fried okra!!!!!! We also loved the homemade pickles. I will always order homemade pickles if the option is available. These were great and we sure enjoyed the leftover bites! I would like to leave a little review that I think my little grandson would have left if he could type, use a computer and know all of his words. "I was really fond of the bbq beef but the standouts to me would have to be the mac n cheese and the championship bbq beans. In fact, I loved the bbq beans so much and got so excited that I put my forehead in the beans that my mommy put on my little child's placemat. After that all of the exursions of eating my food, playing with my food, flirting with our waitress and showing off my baby blues; I started yawning. I am not sure if it was the meat fatigue or the carb coma. Mommy and Daddy thought it was time to leave at that point and I agreed to cooperate as my bbq bean juice dyed hair was getting pretty sticky." I would definitely come in again and maybe try some other items. I would definitely get the prime brisket burnt ends again. Oh yes, AND THE OKRA and whatever my grandson wants, of course!

    Double D's is a delivery service providing quality BBQ across Oklahoma City. They're so popular…read morethat if you wait until the last minute to order, they might be all sold out for that day. Therefore, you order well in advance. I ordered around 9:45 am: Sampler, to be delivered at noon. Delivery was at exactly noon as requested. The Sampler from Double D's is a great value; $20 (including delivery!) for Ribs, Brisket, Pulled Pork, Hot Links, Smoked Sausage, Wings, Baked Beans, Mac n Cheese, Potato Salad, Cornbread. The only downside was that my meal did not come with any utensils or sauces. Perhaps this was an accidental omission? It's mostly unfortunate because sauce(s) would have helped several of the meats. I ended up using the baked beans as a functional sauce which might have even been better than traditional BBQ sauce (spoiler alert: I love the baked beans). The sides... Potato Salad: I'm not a fan of potato salad, so I don't hold it against them that this side did nothing for me. Mac n Cheese: I very much *do* like Mac n Cheese. A delicious combo pasta and cheese, this side does its job well. Pairs especially nicely with the sausage, hot links, and brisket. Baked Beans: Superb. Truly the best baked beans I've ever had. There are tiny pieces of chopped brisket which makes the side heartier than usual baked beans. Especially good with the... Cornbread: Dense, crumbly, decadent. By itself it's fine, but in tandem with another element (for example: the baked beans), it's fantastic. I would eat an entire meal of the cornbread and beans. So good. The meats... Wings: Smaller sized chicken wings, but packed with flavor. Everything edible falls off the bone, so eating them is not the usual messy wings situation. Very good. Brisket: Good BBQ staple. In Oklahoma, brisket is the go-to BBQ cut, and Double D's makes good brisket. Would have benefitted from BBQ sauce. Hot links & Sausage: Both are tasty. The hot links have a snappy casing around spicy meat. The sausage are smokier and mellower with spices. They're cut identically, but the hot links' red hue differentiates it from the browner sausage. Ribs: Quality cuts, smoked long enough so that the meat falls off the bone. Would have benefitted from sauce to give it some hydration and complimentary flavors. Pulled Pork: My favorite even though pulled pork is usually not my BBQ preference. The seasonings on this pork hit just right--pronounced but not overbearing. Like the brisket and ribs, the pulled pork could have used some sauce. Fortunately, the baked beans worked well as a substitute. Overall: I was very pleased with my first meal from Double D's. For $20, the sampler provides at least 2 meals' worth of meat.

This review is for the Double D food truck, which is opening a restaurant in October. The truck is parked at Portland Ave. and NW 17th on Fridays and Saturdays, which is where the restaurant will be. The food speaks for itself. The best pulled pork I've had anywhere in Oklahoma, and tied with the best I've had in Georgia, Tennessee, Kansas...Hands down, far and away, the best collards I've had anywhere, ever. (Please don't tell my grandfather I said that.) Seriously, the greens, I didn't even know they could be that good. Bonus that the two guys running it are super friendly, and clearly know their 'q. The food truck (an old travel camper) is nothing fancy to look at, but they have all their health and business permits right on the window, and whatever they're doing, it clearly more-than-works. My husband and I stopped here a couple weekends ago while spending the Summer in OKC. We both got the pulled pork sandwiches (special for the day), potato salad, and collards. The prices were standard and the servings were generous. I only wish we went sooner and more often. For anyone who lives in OKC, consider yourself fortunate with great food like this. For anyone who travels for food, this is a place to go. We'll definitely be back.
