From the road, it was a little difficult to find among the other businesses, and parking was a bit confusing as to what is permitted. Once inside, the atmosphere and decor are very welcoming and fresh. If I make it back, I would like to learn of the history of the building. Reasonably priced. I had the sampler platter. Nice smokey flavor. Everything was moist and tender.

A small brick building with architecture that suggests the 19th Century prairie. It is on the main drag just outside Ft. Riley. The interior is stunning, better than I could capture on camera. The food was better than this tiny town between Ft. Riley and Manhattan deserved. I have had the good stuff from barbecue restaurants in North Carolina, Georgia, and Chicago. (I’ve missed St. Louis, but we all do.). This little place stands up to them. It is worth at least one visit, more if you can manage it. Four stars instead of five only because I wasn’t thrilled by the prices, but if you do a better job than I did of digging for specials and bulk buying, you might think it to be worth 4.5.

Quite possibly the best bbq in junction city, even though they’re in OGDEN! We heard about Ogdens Backyard BBQ from a friend who was helping us pack our u-haul. We’re PCSing and I’m bummed that we learned about this place the night before we leave! HIGHLY recommend. Their sweet tea is not too sweet, but sweet enough to be sweet tea. The Mac and cheese has a cheesy smoky flavor that I have never experienced anywhere else! The greens are mouth watering and flavorful. Just the right amount of spice and seasonings. I enjoyed the smoked brisket sammich and mixed their bbq sauces together (one was mustard based and the other tomato based) -both were scrumptious. I LOVE baked beans, and theirs made me fall in love all over again. For two of us to eat with our drinks we spend about $27. We won’t be able to eat here again until we come back to visit our family and friends so we hope anyone reading this will go and enjoy their BBQ as much as we did.

Outstanding. Got the sampler, which had brisket, sausage, ribs, chicken and pulled pork. Had a side of green beans and potato salad. It was fantastic and so were the sauces. The place is really nice, too, as are the owners. They do it all themselves. I hear the shrimp etouffe is good, but I was full. Wish I had stopped here sooner and I will definitely be back.

Our staff said it’s the best lunch they’ve had all week! They have great service. I called in a last minute catering order for about 20 people. It was ready when I walked in! They help me to the car too.

I was looking for a local BBQ place to take the family and boy did we find one. There is a reason they are rated so highly for there food. I love supporting local businesses especially when they provide such a great experience. Jimmy greeted us as we walked in and was very polite. I sampled the smoked ribs, smoked rib tips, potato salad and finished it off with some sweet potato pie. The BBQ Sauce is made in house and the food was very delicious. Well seasoned and the ribs have a great bite. I would definitely recommend stopping by and giving it a try. But!!! You don’t have to take my word for it.!!!

I got a lot of food for the price. The sample platter is 10.50 and comes with ribs, chicken, pork, brisket, rib tips and a hot link. Two homemade sauces complinent the meats very well and the sides were good too. Smoked mac and cheese was cheesy and delicious

The best bbq I have ever had (coming from a bbq/grilling family I don’t say that lightly). Service was amazing…friendly & fun. We even had time to chat with the owner. What a treasure!
