On a Sunday afternoon, not crowded so quick service. My daughter thought it was the best sausage she's ever had---good flavor and juicy. The ribs had excellent seasoning (I love cracked black prpper) and perfect amount of smoke---neither overpowered the other; they were very tender and pulled right off the bone. More

I saw a weathered sign on the street and thought that I would check it out. Betty Rose is located in the back of a shopping center that you could say is past its prime. However, the food was prime time. It would make a great stop if you are traveling on I20 as it is just a few blocks... More

I'm not a catfish fan, but my family is, and the Friday night catfish all-you-can-eat is a favorite for them. Just bring on the barbecue for me...MMMMMMM! More

This was my second time to eat at Betty Rose's - really great BBQ! However, counter staff could have been a little friendlier, and not acted like they were doing us a favor by taking our orders. More

Everything dish that is prepared is excellent. It is a casual atmosphere. The banana pudding is the best I've ever had. More

There are 1/2 dozen good BarBQ places in Abilene, and this place is one of them. BarBQ is always fresh and tasty, but the sides are above average and give them a slight edge. Only complaint is the set up for ordering - when they're crowded it takes some time as it's single file (both takeout and sit-down). Nice folks,... More

In a town with more BBQ places that traffic lights, BBQ preferences become highly selective. I'm a fan of BR Turkey. The rest is standard fare. More
