I hired Bad to the Bone BBQ for drop off catering, the food was amazing. The owner was very patient with my indecisiveness and my many changes of the order. He made me feel confident that the food would be there And on time; and it was. Overall my experience with Bad to The Bone gets 5 stars!

Best BBQ around here! Chicken is very tender and juicy. Falls apart when you try to pick it up. Ribs are the same way. The BBQ sauce is phenomenal!

Best BBQ I've ever had and I've had a lot. Trouble is, their hours are not what they say they are. I drove out there once from Irondequoit just for their BBQ and they weren't open. Pissed me off. The only way I'll stop in there now is if I'm going past the place. Even then a sign will say they're open but nobody's home. They really need to stay with the hours they've posted.

The ribs here are awsome you must try them. We also loved the pulled chicken. The sides were great also I'd highly recommend this place for some great bbq and you can sit outside also. Its a family owned business and black owned also. Sime of the best places outsode of Rochester to grab a big plate of bbq.
