Rib tips special & Polish special…10/10 so fresh and good 🍗🍖🍽️ #foodie #foodtok #foodreview ##fyp##fyppppppppppppppppppppppp##chicago##markham##illinois##barbaque##ribtips

Love the ribs and rib tips. Bold flavor. Tender meats. Exsenator's BBQ in Markham, Illinois, is a hidden gem that every barbecue enthusiast should experience. Their hickory-smoked ribs are tender and flavorful, embodying authentic barbecue perfection. The hot links offer a delightful spice, and the smoked chicken is consistently juicy and well-seasoned. Complementing the meats, sides like creamy mac and cheese and crispy coleslaw enhance the meal. The portions are generous, providing excellent value. The friendly, family-run atmosphere adds to the charm, making each visit memorable. For those seeking genuine, mouthwatering barbecue, Exsenator's BBQ is a must-visit destination.

Finally got a chance to stop in and try this BBQ joint. Unfortunately, they were out of tips. I love hot links so I gave them a try. I ordered the small links for $12.99. It was served with your typical fries and 2 slices of bread. I did like the links, but I would have preferred them served whole not partially scored. The sauce was not my fave as it was slightly bland and thick almost like gravy. I would definitely return to try the tip and link combo. I will say the fries were fried just right. Sometimes bbq joints are 50/50 when it comes to properly cooked fries. This is a CASH ONLY establishment.

My girlfriend and I went to this place. It's best to explain in the dialogue as follows: Vince: Hey! They don't take credit cards. I wanted ribs. Ok I guess I'll get something cheaper. Pat, don't you think they would do better taking credit cards? Pat: No, I'm familiar with the same type of places near Maywood, and they do well and don't take credit cards. It's a hassle. How long did you say they were open? Vince: 20 or 30some years, maybe more...not sure. Pat: Well, there you go! You can't knock success! Vince: Why are they giving me free white bread? that's not even healthy bread.Look I think it's wrong they don't take credit cards. I would have bought more today. If my little eBay business can take credit cards why can't they??? I'm giving them 4 stars. Pat: Give them 5 stars! You have to take credit cards at eBay b/c you wouldn't sell anything at eBay under your qualityservice44 business w/o doing so. GIVE THEM 5 STARS!! Their food...

The lady that took my order was very pleasant as were the people waiting for their orders. They only take CASH. I ordered a large rib tip with hot links. The rib tips were good, but there was much more straight up rib meat then rib tips. The meat was fall off the bone and I personally like a little more chew. I had a mix of hot and sweet sauce and they have good sauce with a nice kick. The hot links had good flavor and I had a few bites that had a kick but for the most part I would say they were mild links at best.

I would definitely go back because the flavors were very good and I rarely judge a place on one visit unless the service or food is bad and the management is defending the bad service or food. This was not the case here. The food was good and tasty just not really...

What a waste of money! I don't know if the rib are baked then barbecued or barbecued then baked. Or boiled first!Amazes me that they call those tips that are so badly cut tips. They ought to be ashamed of theirselves. Essentially you paying for a plate of mush . I bought a large tip and couldn't recognize more than two tips. The rest just looked like 1 pan scraps with fries thrown over it. Any rib joint where you can't see your food being prepared raises questions . That is absolutely not how you cut tips. I want to like this place but they're not being honest with this. They are not too many barbecue places on the Southside anymore. Their lack of concern for the customers shows that they're fully aware of it. The worst...
