Reviews for Iowa Barbeque Company in Le Mars, IA
Pretty solid BBQ in Iowa. Brisket was mid, chicken was executed well. Cheese sausage was delicious. The sauces here outshine the... proteins by far. Hard pass on the high dollar cornbread. Potato salad was excellent. Read more
Very good BBQ. Best in Siouxland. Best restaurant in Le Mars, in my opinion. Summer 2022 note: prices are very high - they... raised them when they reopened. I wouldn't venture to say "too expensive" because BBQ is just an expensive food to make andsell. But it is very spendy for a regular place to eat out. Only make it there every few months as a result. Mac and Cheese isthe best side. Wife loves the fries. Beans are killer as well. Really can't go wrong with any of it. Meat is all pretty great.For a restaurant putting out a lot at a time, there is good consistency day to day - their pit master's have their techniquedown well. You can count on it tasting the same every time. 4 stars 1) Because of the price anymore. Really hard to justifyeven if the food is generally good. 2) The amount of sides you get for $4 is really skimpy. They used to put a decent sized pileof each side you order on. Now they take a scoop and scrape/shake it off level to the small spoons they're using. 4 good sizedbites can clean the Mac up. Beans don't fare much better. I'll keep going back because it has been Le Mars best restaurant fora while now, in my opinion and I like supporting local, but the prices for the quantity (especially on sides) are making thatmore and more difficult each time.

Clean, organized restaurant with very friendly staff..the food is amazing! We got the brisket sandwich and the brisket is juicy... and delicious. We will definitely be back! Read more
Ordered the 1/4 pound pulled pork meat (with Texas sauce) and a side of beans. It was delicious! Everyone was very friendly... and answered our questions. They have 3 BBQ sauces on the table to choose from, a roll of paper towels for the napkins.Definitely going back!! Read more
We popped in for lunch while in Le Mars for work. From the moment you walk in, you know from the smell & layout you're in a BBQ... joint. The service is Texas style by weight. Pick your meats & your weight, and then your sides. The brisket & jalapeño cheddarsausage were both really good. I'm partial to Texas style salt-pepper-garlic rub on brisket, but whatever they are using ontheirs at Iowa BBQ Co is also good with a slight sweetness that isn't overpowering. It's well-balanced and the meat itself wasreally moist. The place is a little pricey, but worth it. Read more
Was going to post a pic of the food... but it disappeared before I could. Awesome food, people, prices, and vibe. Brisket is... tender and flavorful all by itself and homemade apple sauce was yummmm. Sauces a plus but definitely not needed. Read more
When I go to a BBQ place and say the best thing was their chicken corn chowder it's not a good sign. I had brisket, pork, ribs,... chicken and sausage and it was all shy of luke warm. The amount of smoke flavor was near non-existent, definitely notsatisfying for anyone used to more authentic BBQ. It looks the part but sadly the flavor was nowhere close to good. Read more
They catered our wedding for approximately 250 people, and we had compliments all night on how great the food was! They made... sure dinner went smoothly from set up to tear down, and we couldn't have asked for better food. Highly recommend for any largeevents! Read more
