The Butcher BBQ Stand in Wellston OK. I've yet to make the trip but the young man who owns and operates this business is a friend of the family, and I'd just like to get this out there. I've read nothing but rave reviews. If you're in the area check him out
I trip from south OKC to the Butcher BBQ Stand 2 or 3 times a year. Its 45 miles from me , but very worth the trip ( especially since I can take the new Kickapoo turnpike ) .
And I was there yesterday. It just gets better. Its not Texas barbecue. Its probably closer to what little I know about KC barbecue. Maybe its Oklahoma barbecue.
Its their thing, from the get-go, to add the Twinkie.
And it really fits their flavor profile. They like sweet. Best I can tell, the ribs are toned down comp ribs. Their sauces are sweet and tangy, think about a version of Head Country. Their Apple Pie beans are a top notch side.
I probably should add more, the owner is Levi Bouska, son of David Bouska whose won a lot of comps regionally and he won the Jack Daniels in 2018. He was also on three seasons of BBQ Pitmasters. He's a butcher by trade and markets rubs and injections under the Butcher BBQ brand.
His barbecue has comp roots. He's done a vid for the BBQ Stars series available on this site.
