HICKORY HUT BARBECUE, Salina

Good food, friendly staff. They have been in business for over 40 years. They do a big take out business as well as eat in. We were very happy with our dinners.

Excellent BBQ

We stopped by Hickory Hut while on a road trip. We had our dog with so we couldn't dine in. We tried the drive-through. After sitting there for some time and saying "hello" a few times with no reply, we drove around and I walked...in to order. The restaurant is very small-town, homey in feel. Lots of old pics of local businesses and events. There was a hot case displaying some of the meats and the place smelled of BBQ in a good way! Carpet could have used a cleaning. The person who took my order was not exactly friendly but not rude either. I ordered for my 3 family members. We all enjoyed our food. I had a sausage topped with pork and a side of amazing potato salad. My husband had a Texas sandwich with onion rings and baked beans, all very good. And my daughter had the loaded baked potatoes which she loved. There was option to add meat to it but she declined. It had baked beans and a couple of "special sauces" on it. It was very good and huge. Bottom line, we would totally eat here again if in the area. Wish we had it locally.More

Super Handy off I-135

Easy off I-135. Nice smokey smell as you step into to a casual local BBQ spot. Good meaty ribs. Very good potato salad and baked beans with lots of bacon. Typically priced. We'll definitely be back on our next trip thru Kansas.

Earned its #1

Passing through on way to Colorado and picked for #1 rating and did not disappoint! Brisket was perfect, tender and tasty. Slaw and potato salad amongst the best. The ribs tasted exceptional, but light on meat with fair amount of fat, but didn’t offset 5...on entire experience, including friendly service. Will be back.More

Great value and amazing taste

They load up your basket. Mine was a pulled pork sandwich that was so good I couldn't stop eating it. Packed full of meat and sweet smokey flavor and included a big helping of handmade onion rings and a handmade potato wedges

Doesn’t get any better

Stopped on our trip from Indiana to Colorado. Picked this place out of the blue…without looking at reviews. What a jewel. I had beef brisket basket, onion rings on top & potato salad. All were awesome. Son had 2 meat dinner, beef & pork brisket,...fries, onion rings…excellent. Husband had 1/2 chicken, fries, baked beans…..beware…this meal will feed at least two! It was wonderful. We went thru the drive thru as it appeared the restaurant might be full. Very quick service! Hope we have an opportunity to return!More

Must try!

This place was amazing! Hands down the best ribs I’ve had in a long time. My wife and I stopped here on our drive from Denver to NC. If you’re driving past Salina this place is 100% a must. Owner was very attentive, food was...amazing and no wait at all. 10/10More

BBQ to go

While in Salina, I wanted to bring home BBQ beef brisket as a surprise for my mom in Lincoln, KS. The beef brisket was delicious and we managed to polish all of it in one meal! I’ll be back!
