We ordered a side of beef rack for a birthday party. My husband said he was in heaven and loved it. The ribs set the stage for the birthday party. My son thanked us for the ribs. My daughter in law loved it and all of the boys were happy with it. Thank you so very much. The ribs were delicious.

Love this place. Usually always nice meaty ribs and the sauce us homemade. Very sweet with a nice burn at the end.

Ordered on 07/29.We bought pulled chicken sandwich, rib tips and and catfish.The Mac and cheese as another reviewer was either stale or left over. It was gross.The pulled chicken wasn't pulled. My guess is it is canned. It was cubed/cut cubed. It was slapped onto an undersized bun. Almost like store bought canned chicken with store bought BBQThe fries were plain and tasted like store bought fries.The store was extremely warm.Would not recommend.

For the price we paid I was expecting amazing but instead got mediocre. The cheesy potatoes were partially inedible because they were scrapings of the pan. The potato salad was the only item ate entirely. Staff was friendly.

Did not enjoy my food at all. 1st and last time going. Ribs were NOT grilled baked beans thick and pasty no flavor to mac n chz was not good. The only thing good were the fries. Temp about 110 in the restaurant, could not dine inside.

My boyfriend and I have ordered takeout from Bare Bones numerous times as Bay City doesn’t have too many barbecue options. Was super excited to try out the barbecue chicken pizza based on recommendations. Ordered, picked up, and got it home for it to be a pulled pork pizza. Called to check on the issue and was told I ordered it wrong with absolutely no care to discuss the issue. I don’t eat pork, didn’t order pork. Won’t be back. Looking for a new barbecue spot.

I love good smoked and seasoned barbeque, and sadly this place isn't it!!!! The rib tips were obviously boiled, and the only flavor was the sauce on them. We received no forks, and the corn muffin resemble paper in taste. I will never go back.

Walking up to the building one can smell the smoked barbecue. It tastes just as good as it smells. The pulled pork sandwich was fantastic. Had the garlic bread and taco pizza both of which were delicious. Planning on returning there as often as possible.

Order Delivery tonight from Bare Bones. Our food came quick and was hot and fresh. They have the best Pizza covered in cheese and toppings, kid got southern chicken tenders with fries she loved them I tried the coney dog cant wait to go back for more of those the coney sauce was great with a nice spice and let's not forget our fresh homemade cornbread muffin. Our service was great from the helpful young lady who took our order and the delivery driver one of the owners. You made one happy family which is hard to do with picky eaters I have not 1 complaint:) Good job keep up the good work!!
