Fatbacks is hands down the best BBQ you're going to find in Quincy and the surrounding area. This family-owned small business never fails to impress with fresh, delicious food served in generous portions by an incredible staff. Whether you're going with a meat platter or a sandwich, you're getting a decadent offering of succulent BBQ. If you leave hungry, you (somehow) did it wrong. A dining destination for sure!
Nice home town BBQ. Staff was friendly and easily ordered at the counter for 1st time customer. Had the fat back sandwich. BBQ pork with slaw. Very good but a bit soggy bottom bun. Mac and cheese was well seasoned. Fair price. Pickle spear could be better. Overall nice place. Will be back to try more.
Had a slab the prices are fair, middle of the road. Same can be said for the ribs. Not bad mind you but nothing you are going to write home about.
Now the sides are hit and miss. Some are better than others. I wasn't impressed with the beans, the potato salad was spot on.
Now the best thing was the cornbread. Oh my gosh that's worth the trip. I even got a corner piece and it was still the best thing on my plate.
I did like their sweet heat sauce as well.
The dry rub rack I got needed the sauce. If you enjoy BBQ as much as I do then you know as well, that when you have to keep reaching for the sauce it's not the best BBQ.
It was kind of tough to chew as well.
Now the real question would I go back? Yes I would return and I'd even suggest you try it.
For the area (that's within a 50 mile radius) this is the best around. You would have to make a trip to Saint Louis or Kansas City to get better BBQ.
