We stopped by Roxy’s BBQ for a late-night Sunday meal, and overall, the food was pretty good — definitely hit the spot for a last-minute dinner. The location is great with plenty of space, and the patio looks like it would be a perfect spot to sit when the weather cools down.
What left us a little disappointed was the BBQ sauce. As any BBQ lover knows, the sauce can really make or break your meal, and unfortunately, Roxy’s only offered one option — a sweet sauce. We were hoping for something with a little more kick or variety.
While we enjoyed the food (especially the Tahlequah Twinkie) and atmosphere, we still prefer Rib Crib for their wider selection of sauces and flavors.

The place itself was super nice and chill. Clean and easy to find. We went at about 5. We initially ordered pork and the beef rib. Both were out. No big deal, changed our order. After about fifteen minutes the waitress came back to say that they had ran out of ribs as well. Tried again a third time and actually got what we ordered. Not really what we wanted but what we ordered. The chopped brisket was ok. The turkey was super good. Sides were ok. The waitress was nice enough but didn’t really come around often. They were sort of busy but it seemed like we were sort of forgotten. The owner did come by and ask how we were. At the time we had not been through two rounds of having to change our order due to things being out. We would try again but without ever knowing when they will be out of what we actually want to try, it’s doubtful.

Majestic views, a great crew. I tried the Tahlequah twinkie and the bbq brisket sandwich. The food was amazing. 10 outta 10 we will definitely be back ♀️

Just found out about this place. We will definitely be back. The brisket is awesome! The smoked turkey breast was unbelievably moist and tender. They use a lot of black pepper which I love.

I was fortunate enough to dine at Roxie’s BBQ Sunday. I met Tyler and Kim Wagers along with their son Hayden. Tyler is a 2nd generation Pitmaster who opened this long established BBQ restaurant in its new location in May of this year. You can find Roxie’s BBQ 1.3 miles north of US Hwy 62 on OK Hwy 10 overlooking the Illinois river. You can’t miss the place as it has a cliff behind it!
Djuana Leedy Pennington and I started with a Tahlequah Twinkie and had the 3 meat combo. We made short work of the stuffed jalapeno. Our combo consisted of ribs, brisket and turkey. The sides were Kami’s Mac and Cheese and homemade slaw. This was served with a piece of Texas toast, a dill pickle and pickled onions. We also had from the table Tyler’s on BBQ sauce.
The food was of superior quality. The ribs perfectly cooked with just a bit of pull from the bone. The brisket had been smoked and rendered until it was easily cut with a fork. The turkey smoked and juicy. The mac and cheese was a little soupy but delicious. The slaw outstanding. I gobbled the pickled onions and dill pickle.
The sauce… I did not know what to think on first tasting. It is unlike any sauce I have ever had, period. It was interesting on the meat. I will try it again warmed up on meat, to give it a fair shake, but right now, I am undecided.
Critical review of meat, ribs great although I like more sauce caramelized on the meat. Brisket delicious and prepared well. I like a bit more bark. Turkey perfect! The sides were incredibly tasty, I wanted more! Somehow in the mix I did not know about the Sweet and Spicy Pickles that Tyler has created to compliment BBQ. He let me sample them. Simply a game changer. They are outstanding.
Tyler came around the restaurant speaking with people. I found out from the waitress that he was the owner and the pit master. He stopped by and discussed the meal. He was kind enough to let me see his kitchen and his pit area. I must say, I was quite impressed by the cleanliness and order I saw. It is a smooth running machine. He has it down to a science.
I found his restaurant very appealing. I was quite impressed with Tyler’s transparency and willingness to let me see his kitchen and pit. Even more appealing was his desire to make our BBQ eating experience the best he can create. He is totally open to suggestions and comments. Don’t get me wrong, he is his own man with tried and true recipes handed down and perfected by his hard work. But he remains open to innovation and improvement.
To sum it up, I will be back to eat at Roxie’s BBQ. I will choose more items from the menu and I will be eating more of those sweet and spicy dill pickles Tyler has created. If you are in eastern Oklahoma or NW Arkansas, do yourself a favor and stop in for some BBQ. You won’t be sorry! Tell Tyler, Dean sent you.

DISCLAIMER: At this time, I’m honored to be a Top 5 Reviewer in Oklahoma for Google. I do my best to be fair and honest but realize your experience may differ from mine. So, please keep that in mind when considering this restaurant, establishment, and/or venue. MY REVIEW: First, their new building is wonderful with a comfortable restaurant and bar area and a wrap around deck with picnic tables for outside dining. It is also a very family friendly place and perfect for a nice meal after floating the Illinois River, a campout in one of many surrounding campgrounds, or just while out for a drive. I was hoping for a smoked turkey dinner but was disappointed to be told they were out of turkey. So, I ordered the chopped beef and hot links dinner with curly fries and baked beans. The meal came with a pickle spear, a small portion of pickled red onion, and a piece of toast. The hot links were delicious, as were the beans and curly fries. The chopped beef lacked much flavor and seemed a little dry. The portions were generous. The barbeque sauce was just average and it is the only one they have available. I found it rather bland and would have enjoyed a spicier sauce or at least another choice. I also wished they would have had a pickle, pepper and onion bar like several barbecue places in the Tulsa and surrounding areas have. That would have been a plus for me. The service was very good. Even though it is a 1-1/2 hour drive for me, I hope to return again sometime to try their turkey.

I love their chicken BBQ whatever sauce they put on it was really good. I did not like the sauce we got that the lady brought us though, tasted bland all I could taste was sugar and flour or cornstarch whatever they put on their sauce. The coleslaw has too much black pepper on it like there is no more tomorrow. Their beans are alright maybe put a little smoke taste to it and would be one of my favorites. I did not mind the pickled red onions. We will come back if we are in the area again.

Brisket is better or equal to any I’ve had anywhere, even Texas. Baked beans were full of meat and smoky just like I like them. Everything else was great but those were the highlights. I’ll be back for more brisket and to try other things. Ask for Mason and give her a big tip!!

Went to lunch here yesterday. Service was excellent. Hands down one of the best bbq spots I’ve ever been too. Meats were smoky in flavor. The sauce complimented the smokiness of the meat. If you’re ever in the area or even up for a drive. Highly recommend this spot.

Roxie’s BBQ in Tahlequah is an awesome spot! The food is always great, and the atmosphere is warm, relaxed, and perfect for hanging out with friends or family. The owners are very involved and it really shows — they take pride in the place, greet customers, and make sure everything feels welcoming and well-run. My waitress Mason was an amazing as well. She was fun, friendly, and super personable. She brings great energy and makes you feel right at home. Definitely a go-to BBQ spot!
