Ordered catering for our company event of 450 attendees, booking and communication the entire time was outstanding and very accommodating. The day of our Company BBQ, staff showed up promptly and with great attitudes and all smiles. They not only served up the amazing food, but helped out where they could which was beyond expected but much appreciated. Everyone at our event LOVED the food, and the staff that served us I would absolutely request over and over again. They did a fantastic job, and even though they were technically working they seemed to enjoy the atmosphere and music as they were laughing and randomly dancing which made it all that much more fun. =) BIG SHOUT OUT to these 3 amazing staff members and everyone at LULU's BBQ!!!

A very solid BBq joint! Really loved the pulled pork and half chicken. Those were perfect. The brisket, turkey and rib tips are really good as well. They have the usual yummy sides and have a rotating option for veggies of the day. Three sauce options - liked all three but found the hot one my top selection.

This has got to be some of the best BBQ meats my family has had in a long time - and we are a family of particular people, so it’s saying a lot that NOT one of us had a complaint - delicious! And their BBQ sauces are such a great surprise, just makes this a great meal!

This was some really great BBQ! I've eaten so much bad BBQ I usually just make my own these days but I was visiting my brother who lives in Louisville and he vouched for this place. As it turned out, they served me the best smoked turkey I've ever had, and that includes the stuff I've had at famous places in TX/ I also really loved the rib tips. Their take on that was super tasty. The service was great and the only gripe I have is that I wish there'd been a bit more on my platter for the price.

The food is great. The ribs and brisket, while smoked are lightly smoked so there is no bitterness that comes from over smoking. This was the second time I’ve had takeout from there and each time one small item was missing, this time it was cornbread which was a shame as their cornbread is fantastic. When doing takeout be sure to have 2 people go. One to drive and the other to pick up as parking is tight.

My review was 6 years old so I figured it was time for a new one. Lulu`s BBQ is some of the best in the state and luckily for me I live 2 miles away. The ribs are great, they are meaty and very flavorful. Their sausage is out of this world and they make it in house. Another thing they do super well is their turkey, some of my favorite turkey around. they also have brisket nachos which are some of the best nachos in town. Most of their meat is so good and tender that no extra sauce is needed. Service is friendly and quick with everyone taking care of you. 5 stars after all these years!
