Boone's Bbq Barn

Disappointing. As two people who cook a lot, it was obvious the brisket, pulled pork, pulled chicken, and ribs were all poor quality meat that was either cooked too long in the case of the chicken , or not long enough in the case of the other meat connective tissue in ribs and pulled pork not dissolved), and everything had been reheated in the microwave. Made it both dry and greasy, with a gamey flavor. Rubbery and tough. We couldn't eat more than two bites. Beans were good, as were the potato salad and slaw, but nothing special enough to offset the meet. Potatos in hashbrown casserole were under cooked, and there were soggy corn flakes on top. No resenting from the sauces. I can forgive the serve yourself drinks and plastic silverware, and ordering at the counter is...fine. Big open area with a stage, looks like an outdoor area, could be a fun place. We were in at 5 on Wednesday and we're the only customers there. The lady who rang up our order was bright and cheerful. We were there to scout food to cater an event, but left our food only lightly touched and decided we will cook much better ourselves. For $42 for two people, will buy a rack of ribs, a whole Boston Butt, spend the leftover money on drinks, and cook much better food at home for ourselves and friends. I grew up around Bolivar, and like to support local, but they'll have to do better.

Best brisket I have ever had!!! We stopped on our way home to Lincoln from Memphis and we were NOT disappointed. If we are ever in Bolivar again we will be stopping!!!

The whole dinner was exceptional! The manager Scott was so helpful and friendly. The staff is friendly and pleasant. Very down home feeling and the food was spectacular. The best brisket I have ever had! I wish we were able to come back more often.

The food really wasn 't that great. We have traveled all over the country so we have had BBQ all over. The main spice they rely on seems to be salt, and the dishes you would expect to be salty weren 't. The turkey tasted like deli meat and the hash brown casserole was dry. Three of the sauces tasted like straight vinegar and the one original sauce was just all salt.

We always have wanted to stop in at this restaurant. We never seemed to have time until this visit. Their meals are built for two (2! Several flavors of BBQ to choose from. 1/2 rack if ribs were good, Bison Burger with loaded sliced potatoes. They offer a 10% military discount.
