Fat Daddy's of Russelville
Reviews
I like this restaurant, great location and good food. Sweet, mild, and hot are the choices of barbecue sauce. I had the hot on a pulled chicken sandwich. We were a party of 4, all of us had a pleasant experience with our dishes. There is a pepper sauce at the table, like a thin salsa. I used it on my fries, it was tasty. The onion rings were excellent. My companion ordered the green bean casserole, I did not have any but she said it was excellent along with the dill pickle spear and the pickled okra they bring out with every meal. I don't like pickles or okra but in my dining party, all approved heartily. I ate all the banana peppers that were served with our meals. It went well with the Mac and cheese side dish.
Ate there for a second time big mistake. I had a pulled pork sandwich and it was tiny and not flavorful at all. The 1 pound tub you can buy at the grocery stores and reheat in the microwave is better! My girlfriend got the rib plate, 3 ribs that we're tiny if you take your pinky finger and curl it that would be a good comparison. They had a total smoke flavor. The only plus side was the clean lobby any very friendly staff.
Overall one of the worst bbq's i've had
A great experience! We called a week ahead to order food for 70+ for a gathering of family and friends to celebrate mom's 80th birthday. The staff worked with us and helped us make great choices to serve the whole crowd. The smoked pork, served as pulled pork sandwiches, was fantastic. The two sauces, sweet and hot, were both spicy but different enough to warrant their names. Our guests loved the cheezy taters and cole slaw too. We had a few cut up smoked chickens as well - every bit as good as the pork! Serving size was LARGE - every comment we heard was positive, everyone loved the food, but we still had leftovers. I personally had two more meals from our order after the party and mom donated quite a bit of great food to the Senior Center. I highly recommend Fat Daddy's to every barbecue lover. They smoke the meats in London, a few miles down the road from west Russellville, but they also sell their great foods from a shop in a gas station near all the hotels at I-40 exit 81 (Arkansas highway 7).
