Ol West BBQ

Really good, staff is friendly, free beans if you dine in! Tennessee sandwich is great.

Mane these ribs are the best! I love em! I’ll stop by everytime. Sausage is good but have a lil spice

This place is for bbq lovers. I got the 2 meat dinner with ribs and brisket, corn on the cob and coleslaw. The meats were tender and smokey, the ribs were meaty and fell off the bone. The sauce is great, not too rich and a just the right amount of tangy. Nothing fancy, order at the counter and it comes on foam plates, but is very clean and low key. My compatriots liked their meals very much as well. Great food, good price, I definitely recommend it and would come back again if I’m in the area.

Are you a serious carnivore? How about omnivore? If you answered yes to both of those questions then Ol West is the place for you! Their meat is smoked and out of the 5 times I have ate here, it is consistent. I love sauce but I would consider eating their meat without sauce if I didn’t love sauce so much! Their sauce is very good too. It is a tangy sauce that is a mix between vinegar and tomato base. Their hot BBQ sauce is the same but with cayenne pepper added. The best side is the potato salad. It’s real creamy and sweet with just enough mustard not to overpower the taste. The Cole slaw is too crunchy for my taste because I like Cole slaw real creamy but decent. Their beans have grown on me. They are more like pinto beans instead of baked beans and I doctor them up with some BBQ sauce and tabasco. If you eat in, you can eat as many beans as you like. When you come in, you order at the counter and the place feels like an Old West kind of place after it’s name. In summary, the sides are pretty good but you don’t go to a BBQ place for the sides. You go for the meat and sauce ! The meat and the sauce by itself gives this place a 5 — star rating. Leg-​end-​ary meat!

BBQ is good for North Louisiana and better than whats around Shreveport for sure. Now don’t think your getting South Texas or Memphis BBQ, but it is all good food at Ol West, place is always clean and good service. Prices are very good!

Best BBQ ever! This is a favorite if I’m in the Minden area. Yummy potato salad and beans. :) Everything I’ve ordered here has been wonderful. Moist, tender meats every time.

One of our favorite places in Minden to eat at. Someone just bought ribs for us and they were soooo good. We love most everything we have tried! I agree they do need help on the sides. Excellent service!

Chopped beef is hit or miss. If it’s miss – it has a lot of fat in it. Huge pieces of chocolate cake though.

Pulled pork is as good as any I have ever had. They need to work on their sides though.

Excellent BBQ Generous portions. Free pinto beans with dine-​in. The very best
