    Best BBQ I've ever had! My favorite is the smoked chicken, but everything is delish! The cornbread is amazing and the baked beans were fantastic! We no longer live in Brookings but if we are going to be passing through we make sure to time it so we can stop and eat here!

    Road trip to Fargo, we stopped in this little BBQ shop. Have to say it's the best BBQ we had in a long time. Brisket was amazing. Seasoned perfectly and the meat was so tender. Sweet potato fries were great as well. Mac and cheese was great for my kid. Will definitely go back.

    The beef brisket and wings were delicious! Our favorite side was the beans. The establishment has an enjoyable and unique atmosphere too. Would definitely recommend this to friends to try!

    I have had two events catered by the BYGrill and the food was excellent, there was some service related confusion the first time but not the second. I also carry out from time to time. Their tiny Brookings location does not work well with a big family to dine in but I am told they are moving to the former Mixed location, a smart move if its true. I love their beef brisket, beans and cornbread. Their sauces are good and I find mixing them gives me the best flavor. While I have not had their wings, friends rave about them. In a community thoroughly fixated on pizza and subs, the BYGrill gives Brookings a much need alternative.

    Backyard Grill was so so. It wasn't the best BBQ I had and it wasn't the worst. Good: The Beef brisket sandwich was pretty solid. Sweet potato fries were probably also very enjoyable. Bad: The BBQ pork sandwich was dry and the overall sauces weren't great, in my opinion. While I know the meats are usually prepared well in advance at BBQ places, I was a bit disappointed to see that they kept all the meats behind the counter, not in a large smoker or anything. Subsequently, I think this dried some of the meats out (I could be off on that). Overall, this place has reasonable prices and is worth checking out if you are looking for a quick meal. Service was friendly and we got our food very quickly.

    Great BBQ. I had the brisket and it was delicious. It gets crowded since its a small place, but a definite stop when in the area.

    Backyard Grill is a totally unexpected surprise that is definitely worth stopping by to try when you are in the Brookings area. Being from the south, I have eaten a lot of different types of BBQ. This one is the real deal and is as good or better than many of the places featured on Food Network or the Travel Channel. Brisket is very, very good. The pulled pork is good solid chunks of BBQ. A lot of places will try to cover up pork BBQ with sauce. No amount of sauce will make bad BBQ taste good. Backyard Grill does not add any sauce to their BBQ pork. It doesn't need it. However, they do have several different sauces for you to add as little as or as much as you want. As a word of warning, if you add too much sauce you cover up the smoke flavor that they have been working on for several hours during the cooking process. Good size portions on meat and sides. The corn bread is even better than my Aunt Sally's and that is saying a lot! The staff is ultra-friendly. I really like that the cooker is outside so you can catch whiff of the meats cooking as you pass by or if you are eating outside. I am looking forward to a return trip to Brookings and trying the ribs- although the brisket and pork is so good I might have get them instead. The one thing I would like for them to offer is sliced brisket. They chop their brisket.

    I really like this little fast food place. Good barbecue and there's something about the atmosphere that just makes me happy. The corn bread is really good. I don't think the sides are homemade though. Definitely would recommend.

    Some of the Best BBQ in the area!!!!!! Brisket and ribs are amazing. Their Catering Crew isn't the nicest around. We had it catered to a wedding and was very disappointed in the help they sent but the Food Was Good!!!!

    I have traveled to places like Georgia and Kansas City many times; places that boast the greatest BBQ in the world. Backyard Grill has to be the best BBQ you will be able to dig your grubby little fingers into outside of the ambiguous region known as "The South." The pit master Al is always adding new items to his menu and adjusting his business according to the tastes of his customers; a fantastic businessman. I have been getting BBQ from Al since he ran his business out of a small shack on the northeast side of town and I will be sure to continue to get my BBQ fix at The Backyard Grill whenever I am in town from now on! Keep singing, -Jerron

    Traveling through the state of South Dakota, we thought we would try the Backyard Grill and are so happy we did! The food was excellent! My wife, being a native Texan, has some high BBQ standards and she was impressed. We ordered the Ribs and Pork, both were very good.
