Hickory River Smokehouse

Had take-out. Everything was awesome!! Brisket was amazing and the mac'n cheese was the best I've ever had. I spent over $30 but it was 4 meals me. Definitely worth every penny!!

Spent over $20 for a plate of sliced brisket. With sweetcorn and mashed potatoes and gravy as sides. Unfortunately, the brisket and mashed potatoes and gravy were barely warm. The only thing that was warm was the side dish of sweetcorn. Although it was like it was overcooked from being in the steam table for two days. Pointed out to the staff that soda had been spilt on the floor by another customer. Took them almost 15 minutes to finally decide and put out a wet floor sign and mop up the mess. Not very impressed at all.

Pretty great! We got the full rack of ribs dinner, which comes with two sides and a piece of cornbread (we ordered an additional so we could each have one) and split it. They very nicely brought it out on two separate plates without us having to ask. $36 before tip. The honey barbecue sauce was excellent! Mac & cheese and mashed potatoes were also great. The cornbread was a little too crumbly for us, but a nice size chunk. We’ll doubtlessly be back!

As close to Texas bbq as we are going to get in Central Illinois.

Great lil BBQ spot, great price, quick service.

One of the friendliest places I have been to in a long time. The service was great and the food was even better. I had the brisket sandwich with Mac and cheese with the chili. The food was not dry at all. I will definitely be returning soon.

Clean and friendly environment. Wonderful meal. Would recommend.
