Absolutely delicious! Love the nachos with brisket. The smell of the food is intoxicating. I have yet to make it on a Friday to try out the brisket tacos, but they are on my list. They have great sandwiches and sides as well. The brisket is tender, flavorful, and just pulls apart so easily. If you are local, or visiting wine country, you NEED to try Pat's. You will not be disappointed.

Pat's is as good as it gets, if not the best BBQ that you'll find in Southern Illinois. Their pulled pork is incredibly juicy and tender. The pork steak sandwich is fantastic as well. All of their sides are smoked...the best being the Mac n cheese and green beans. And to cap it all off, those signature baked beans! I'd recommend this cozy little spot to anyone looking for BBQ in the Murphysboro area.

I've been meaning to try pat's for awhile and finally stopped by for dinner and it was great! This is a no frills place that has very good bbq. I lived in memphis previously and this is definitely one of the better spots for bbq in the area! We went 30 minutes before closing time so most of the meats were sold out so I'll have to come back soon. I had a pulled pork sandwich platter with mac and cheese and pasta salad and it was delicious! The bbq sauce was spot on and is tangy and not too sweet. My husband enjoyed the vinegar based cole slaw and the potato salad was very good as well. They also do catering and have an extensive catering menu. I highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking for good bbq!

Last week, my family & I ordered food from Pat's BBQ & the service was great & I ordered the rib tips & Mac & Cheese! My food was fresh & I really love their sauce! I think Pat's BBQ is one of the best BBQ joints in Southern Illinois! Their breakfast is great too!

It tasted really good. I am used to southern style BBQ, and this was a tad different. Surprisingly, I really enjoyed it. I did find their choice of baked beans a strange and dry, though, not my flavor. The customer service was spectacular. The prices are amazing cheap for BBQ.
