I had just flown in from Sacramento CA on the way to visit my uncle another 2 hours by rental car. My aunt and I weren’t that hungry but needed a bite to eat knowing once we left city not much would be around. We passed by known fast food places hoping for some local hotspot. There beaming like a savior was the sign of goodness to come. That billboard caught my attention and my mouth was watering by the time I drove the side road off the freeway to bbq heaven. I knew I had found a jewel when pulling into a food spot. You either look for a full parking lot or big rigs parked nearby. The truckers and locals always know where the top spots to eat are. They were right. The ribs. were falling of the bone sweet tangy flavor melt in your mouth greatness. Brisket was just as amazing as were filled out Belly with great Cole slaw and potato salad we eyed the fresh made cobblers at the counter. we bought one of each. Peach. apple and cherry. not sure which was the favorite as they all were amazing with a flakey rich crust. Following up with their famous watermelon tea and a sweet tea for the road. Half way through my watermelon tea my aunt asked for a sample and asked if I minded trading her sweet tea for the watermelon… so folks beware that melon tea is good and will be begged for so you might want to buy that gallon to go. we don’t have your restaurant in our area so next trip I know the first place in stopping. Next time I’m gonna be ready. Ice chest for more food to go and a gallon of melon tea. Oh and cobblers. gotta get that don’t forget… friendly folks too.

I really should give it 3.5 stars, because I’ve had one less than satisfactory experience at Hog Wild(in the many times I’ve been here). But I lean toward the 4 because out of so many other times, I HAVE been satisfied. Their Ribs are killer and that’s what keeps me coming back time after time. Their sauces — amazing. Pulled pork is wonderful. Brisket… Ehhh, it’s good. But there are better places in Wichita if you’re a brisket fan. For a «franchise», Hog Wild does it well! And I wish there were a few where I live. And I know it sounds a little funny… But that buttered bread! Don’t know what they do, but keep doing it!

We came in needing food to-go for 20 people. We expected to have to wait a while, but we were in and out with our food in 5 minutes! Absolutely fantastic service. We forgot our silverware and someone from the staff ran outside to give it to us. Okay BBQ, but will definitely be back for the service!(Kansas City BBQ snob ;))

You won’t go wrong here — prices and quantities are decent, while the staff is friendly and helpful. The food, while good, just wasn’t all that special. I’ll probably head back and try something else.

Good BBQ. I had the one meat brisket. Was moist and flavorful. Also ordered a loaded tater with pulled pig. The rarer is a meal in its own right.

Not bad at all! Their prices are a bit high for my liking, but I’ve never left Hog Wild still hungry or disappointed in my meal. I recommend the pulled chicken and brisket.

BESTBBQEVER!!! I love the rib dinner and the sauce is excellent. If you love BBQ this is the place for you. Just the smell outside will get you’re mouth watery. Ever time I come to town I try to make sure and stop here for the best BBQ around. And the people here are very nice. The price is worth the flavor if you haven’t tried this place GO you won’t regret it.

Our one place we hit every time we are in Wichita. Amazing that the food at a fast food place could be so good. So far we haven’t had anything we didn’t like.

I did not get a chance to eat here; however they state they deliver but when I called I was informed that it must be for 20 or more people. I was staying at a hotel less than a mile away. They should not be listed as providing delivery.

We eat at several of this restaurants locations. Their bbq is delicious and very affordable. The sauce is so good. I love that their turkey s gluten free and I often get the meat stuffed potato. The kids love it and clean their plates every time. The staff is quick and friendly and the restaurants are clean. Definitely a local favorite.

Just about as varied of barbecue as you can imagine is available at Hog Wild on West street. Service inside is great and you’ll get your food MUCH faster than you think. I ordered a three-meat dinner with pulled pork, beef, and pulled chicken. I thought the beef was cooked best and had the best flavor, though the pork was also good. The chicken was very dry and a bit overcooked. I tried the baked beans and curly fries for the sides. The fries were crispy and salty — no complaints. The baked beans were nothing out of the ordinary. Overall, a solid barbecue place, but not something you’ll need to have every month. I feel like I got a good value for the money, but it was nothing special. 3⁄5

Visiting Wichita on a business trip, I went to Hog Wild on the recommendation of one of my hosts. I have to say I was nonplussed by my experience. I had the two meat dinner with the beef brisket and hot links and chose the baked beans and potato salad as my sides. The brisket was finely chopped instead of sliced, so it was hard to tell from sight what quality of meat was there. I spied a few pieces with about a 1⁄8 inch pink smoke ring, but the flavor just wasn’t there. I will say that it was at least somewhere between dry and too moist/fatty, so the right consistency was there, but the flavor was really not. The mild BBQ sauce helped the situation a bit. The hot links had a better flavor but the texture and casing left something to be desired. It was almost like… sausage baloney: over-processed and under seasoned. The baked beans were comparable to canned beans in my opinion, only they were lukewarm instead of hot. The potato salad was nothing to write home about, just ok. I don’t know, maybe I’m just spoiled having grown up in Texas and all. I’ve had much, much better BBQ in the Lone Star State but perhaps this is just the best that Wichita has to offer?

First time I have had Hog Wild. A good experience overall. Walking up to the place, you can smell the aroma of meat enticing you to come in. Right away there is a huge menu plastered on the right side of the wall where you take your order. Very easy to read and helpful to figure out what you want to order. I had ordered the two-meat sandwich for $ 5.99 which I took the pulled pork and beef brisket. My side was Potato Salad for 1.69 and a drink for 1.69. Came out to 10 dollars and some change for the order. The restaurant had an overall clean appearance with a fully stocked soda/condiment setup. Several booths and plenty of seating. Our order only took about 5 – 10 minutes and my sandwich came loaded. The sandwich was great, because they toasted the bun with butter. It had a little bit of BBQ sauce, and I added some of their sweet BBQ sauce. Very good. The meat was moist and fell apart and the bun was good. Most buns you get with BBQ are weak and get soggy very quickly. The buns provided held up very well. Minimal mess and your hand isn’t covered in grease and sauce. Filled me up very well. The Potato salad was a bit of a disappointment in my opinion. It almost tasted like store bought, so I doubt they actually make it themselves. It could use seasoning and chives and a mix of other things to be superior. Honestly their sides aren’t that great at all. Now the best part I would say was the table side service. I was not expecting this at all. The lady that helped us was very friendly and refilled our drinks, and even dumped our empty finished trays. I gave them the fifth star because of that alone. Also someone apparently lost something and the manager went around to check if anyone lost anything. That’s straight up good and humble honesty to look out for their customers. I’m not sure why some of the other reviews are low. I had an excellent experience. If you’re going during lunch time, be prepared for long lines. I happened to show up at open(11am).

Decent Q at a really good price. Sides are so-so. Hot Q sauce really did it for me. But this is about meat, right? Beef was chopped, tender, with medium smoke flavor. Not bad. Pork… ditto above. I expected more tenderness in the pork to be honest. Still fine, though. Ribs were cooked just right for me. Firm… but yielding off the bone with a little pull. Needed a bit more smoke and spice for more stars. This is a 4 star value, though. No regrets eating here.

I was a little cautious about trying this place after reading some of the reviews in which people were sick afterwards, but I thought maybe they were outliers or were sick by coincidence. After eating here with a party of 3, I can confirm that yes, all of us got sick. The first thing I noticed about the place is that it is a little dirty. Pies are slapped carelessly into plastic bins, and everything looks slightly haphazard and unclean. After eating, I felt mildly unsettled, and unfortunately for my two lunch companions this intensified into full-blown GI issues.

Disappointment. This is what followed a recent trip to Hog Wiiiiiiiild Pit Bar-B-Q. The largest local chain of BBQ in town? Probably. With 6 locations total, including one in Hutch & Salina. Two Brothers BBQ I believe just caught up with a forth location here in Wichita. But Hog Wild certainly has the higher, continual radio commercial presence, at least that Ive noticed. For whatever reason I just had not given them a shot until recently and regrettably. Lets get the sides out of the way. Baked beans were average, the potato salad was average, and the garlic toast was too butter greasy. What I really came here for was the ribs and a smoked Thanksgiving turkey. The ribs… Blarg…just were not good. Fatty. Greasy. Undercooked. Overall all lacked much taste even with their BBQ sauce already liberally applied and the ribs were uncut, served as a whole half slab, is this a common to-go practice? The next day it was the turkeys turn. For a price of $ 30, it was the cheaper found in town partially precooked. From the fridge to the oven, is it possible to lose that sought after smoker taste? The bare hint of smoke the finished turkey provided wasn’t worth the price to me even for being the cheaper out of the round up. Next year I’ll just hit the grocery store.

As a native Texan I can be skeptical of BBQ joints and this one passed my tests. The aroma in the place was delicious, prices are super reasonable, and the BBQ was good. Worth a try for sure.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, all of their locations are delicious! Great BBQ! What I miss when in CA. Good variety of sauces. All of their meats & sides have been really tasty. They have Berry Cobbler for dessert. haven’t tried it but it looks good. They also offer a great big baked potato with all the fixin’s, meat included if you’d like. I think they also offer a tostada salad with whatever type of meat you’d like on it. MEATCHOICES: pit-smoked meats of all kinds including beef brisket, pulled pork, ribs, hot links, turkey breast, pulled chicken and pit ham. SIDECHOICES: Baked Beans, Potato Salad and Cole Slaw, Curley Fries. Order at the counter, they will call you when it is ready. Pickle & pepper bar offered. I checked«delivers» but this is just for catering purposes.
