Best WLM Reviews

We ordered a bacon burger, order of fries, med coke, jumbo bbq sandwich with slaw, fried mushrooms and a pizza burger. Cost:$27. When the food came, it was all shoved in a brown paper lunch bag. No fries. Lady at window claimed she didnt hear that bit, so tried to charge me $2.50 extra for fries. Burger has gone cold waiting on fries. I decide to tell the lady I think the food is slop. Of course, things became very animated at this point. Barbara comes to the window offering to recook my burger. Ha! Then offers to give my money back. I told her to keep it. As we were backing out of her parking lot, she threw a twenty dollar bill through the open window. She should have paid me 20 more for all the drama she caused. The food looks like they are buying their supplies at the Cash Saver. Oh, well, enjoy the pics. Best advice? Steer clear of this dump.
Barb's BBQ looks like it is straight from the screen if you were to watch an episode of Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. This BBQ stand has been a staple in the community for many years, and it shows with their reputation and reviews. BBQ and the associated fixings are the main offerings here, and you won't be disappointed with anything you get. It's cheap, good, and all around your usual kind of Southern fare.
The ladies at Barb's are kind and funny which makes the wait time go by fast. They have been here in Searcy for many years and still deliver a healthy serving of the best quality bbq I have ever eaten from a small little business. The food prices at Barb's are fair and you definitely get your money's worth!! Never disappointed.. always leave satisfied!!
My first impression was they DO NOT accept Debit, or Credit Card. With that said after calling in my order. Upon arriving, I had to leave to make an atm run. The ladies was supper nice and friendly. The bbq was ok, but not excited about the bbq sauce. The coleslaw was different. Never had it with mustard before, but it wasn't bad at all. I fill like the coleslaw is what saved the sandwich in my opinion. Just saying. All an all, it was not a bad sandwich. It is strictly a personal preference thing. You can draw your own upon. Yes I would recommend Barb's.
Good barbecue comes with mustard slaw. You can order by the pound and get a family pack. Also good grilled cheese with ham. They do not accept debit or credit cards. Service is usually pretty fast. There is no dining area so all food is made to carry out.
If you want good local Searcy bbq, this is it. The sauce is thick, sweet and spicy and makes great baked beans. The mustard slaw...makes that sandwich. Glorious!
It has been a while since I have been there. Their sandwiches are not as good as before. I hate Gerald's Barbeque went out if business. This place has no dessert offerings. Drive up, get out,, order and wait. No place for a drive thru at all.
I've been coming here since I was a kid and it's always delicious! Awesome BBQ sandwiches!
