Social Profile:

Shorty’s BBQ isn’t just a place to eat—it’s a place where tradition is served with every meal. For over 70 years, we’ve been honored to bring the time-honored art of authentic Southern BBQ to South Florida, using age-old techniques passed down through generations. Our roots run deep, and every dish we serve tells a story of family, craftsmanship, and a commitment to the rich, smoky flavors that make BBQ a celebration of life itself. From our award-winning, fall-off-the-bone baby back ribs to our melt-in-your-mouth brisket, every bit at Shorty’s BBQ is a reflection of years of tradition, perfected over fire, wood, and patience.

Pit BBQ pork, chicken & beef is the draw at this funky Western-themed venue of a regional chain.

Great experience at Shorty’s BBQ. The food portions were large and full of flavor, and everything we tried tasted great. We really enjoyed the quality of the food and the overall experience.

Saying a bittersweet goodbye in mind to an absolute Miami icon Just had my last BBQ PORK Sandwich from the Shorty’s Dadeland location, Unless I make A trip One Day for Some CORN!!

SIDENOTE:
MY BRIOCHE BUN IS FROM PUBLIX TOASTED WITH BUTTER FIRST

I’ve been eating this my whole life, and it’s a sad day to see them closing their doors after 75 years. ❤️The memories made over these picnic tables will last forever.

A little poem for a legendary spot
The pit is cooling, the land is sold,
A lifetime of memories, a story told.
The sauce was sweet, the smoke was deep
This Dadeland staple, a memory we’ll keep❤️

Make sure to stop by before they’re gone!

You can also visit their other locations in West Miami and Davie.

I was raised in Miami & had never eaten here. The food was delicious! Esp the baby back ribs.

Roxy was our server and she was very sweet and attentive. We have a bunch of allergies & she made sure our orden was taken care of & ordered correctly. The manager Julian also came out to make sure they got our order correct & that it was safe to eat.

High recommend eating here! The service & food were great.

I’ve been eating delicious food there since childhood; it’s the best place to go with the family for corn on the cob with butter, the best ribs, and the best service. Thank you to Mrs. Gabby for her kind attention.!!!

I had a great dining experience at Shorty’s BBQ South Miami, and I want to specifically recognize Roxana Llanes for her exceptional service. She was incredibly attentive, polite, and made us feel welcome from start to finish. Roxana took the time to explain menu options, offered helpful suggestions, and made sure our food and drinks came out just right.

What really stood out was her genuine kindness and professionalism. She created a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere and clearly takes pride in her work. Service like this makes a big difference, and it’s the reason I would happily return. Shorty’s is lucky to have someone like Roxana on their team. Highly recommended!

Famous restaurant but everything just ok, could be better. There was no brisket anymore and it was only 20pm, floor is slippery we almost felt to walk to the table and service and food are just ok. The corn on the cobe is great.

Always a stop for us when we’re in the Area, Fabulous BBQ and the Best fried green tomatoes in the south. Our server Dory was hotter than a pistol and sweeter than my Grandma she made our lunch truly enjoyable. Looking forward to returning.

Had a great experience here! This was my first time in Shorty’s and our server Daisia was super nice and patient, I haven’t had service this great in a while. Not to mention our food came out quickly, we had a large party of over 7 people and she made sure that we were all happy! I’ll definitely be returning
