I’ve been going here for over fifty years. The place has changed owners a few times I think. The service and food is fantastic. One of the best bbq places to go. The sauce is unique and unmatched by anyone. The people there are friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend.

The best cheeseburgers around. You can't eat here and not get a chocolate milkshake.

Not a fan of sliced BBQ. And wasn't that much meat for a "large" BBQ.

By far the best Carolina style BBQ sandwich in Southern Illinois and a lot of other places I've been. Start with a slow smoked ham. Slice a pile of it razor thin. Grill it up so the edges are crispy brown. Stack it on a fluffy toasted bun. Order the large!

BBQ pork was very dry, bland, and the sauce was odd. Mayochup? Idk it had a weird consistency, pale pinkish color to it, one of the worse bbq sandwiches I’ve ever had. Maybe it was an off day but they also heated the beans up in the microwave so idk…
Dixie BBQ is perennially one of the best BBQ places anywhere, voted one of the best BBQ experiences on the Chicago Tribune's Best BBQ in Illinois review, particularly its thin-sliced layers of BBQ pork shoulder with crispy, bacon-like edges, piled on a bun and served in an old-fashioned diner basket. If one desires yuppy-decor, however, perhaps one should patronize a chain like Bandana's, etc. and not clog the wait-line for the locals.

Slice BBQ heaven! I love their sauce. My favorite order here is the large BBQ basket, well done BBQ (they crisp it up on the Grill top), no pickles, and onion rings instead of fries. Then you gotta get the sauce and dress your sliced pork and then pour it in your onion rings. The sauce is a sweet sauce. My son loves their cheeseburgers and when it's chill season, we definitely get our fair share. Chocolate malts at the end of the meal are always a treat. The service is incredible. I love feeling welcomed. The restaurant is very old and it hasn't changed, which is fine by me. Quality over fancy stuff is okay with me.
