Rubbin Butts Bar-B-Q — Restaurant in Town of Cobleskill

Walked into the side that denotes the BBQ place, only to be hit with a scent that is indescribable in nature...definitely not a BBQ smell, more like something rotting or brewing up fruit flies. The ordering area is actually labeled as a grill, and their menu reflects more of a bar/grill rather than a BBQ place. Anyways, I ordered one of their BBQ plates with pulled chicken and brisket. After the counter girl stopped playing with her Nintendo Switch, she went back and got our food. (To which she forgot silverware and napkins... had to stop at a nearby gas station to get the necessary items to eat while driving...)The pulled chicken was not bad, but lukewarm, the brisket was dry, thinly sliced, and like it had been left out all night....(mind you, we were the first ones in the place...they unlocked the doors for us) the BBQ sauce that they make was so sweet and ketchup based, instant turn-off; whatever the sauce with the C on it was mustard based and not appetizing. We were told that the mac and cheese had bacon in it, only to find out there was none when we opened it... the place was cold and very unbecoming of a BBQ place.

... we should have read the reviews prior to going there... note to self, do research on where you're getting food if you...

The price was way too high, but I was willing to give it a chance. Nobody in my party liked their food at all, and we each got something different. I ordered a medium-well cooked burger which came out still mooing. I showed them and they agreed it was too raw. However, instead of cooking me a new one, they removed the remainder of my opened up burger to cook longer. When I finally got it back, it was way overcooked and had a burnt taste, not to mention the fact that we were all ready to leave by that time. The onion rings were also undercooked, and I even found the loose batter inside of a couple of them. My daughter ordered the bbq mac n cheese and it was absolutely disgusting. My husband had pulled pork and he thought the stuff in the grocery store packages tastes better. My son had the “brisket”, it looked more like frozen steak slices that were almost jerky like. I highly regret spending over $70 there and will never go back. The only highlights were the pool table...

This is a difficult review to write. I say that because my mother taught me if ya Can't say anything nice. Don't say anything at all. Yep that's how horrible my lunch was today.

Traveling through the area and decided for a quick pit stop. The name caught our attention, but don't make the same mistake we did. Our order came out fast, but the only thing that was hot was the fries. Okay so I found one thing that was good about this place the fries.

The mac and cheese was lukewarm. The brisket was dry and salty. The bun was stale, bland and dry. Now let's talk about the once was ketchup, that was filtered and reborn is what they call their house sauce BBQ. Ladies and gentlemen, there's an Arby's nearby. I recommend you go there instead. Because at least when spending $39 for lunch it would be hot, fresh and have some flavor. I normally take pictures of my lunch, but it's already In the trash at the...
