I was in town for work and Rodney Scott's was just a short walk from the hotel. I ate there for lunch one day and dinner the next. For lunch, I had the turkey sandwich and it was smokey, moist and delicious. It could use some acid in the form of eitherpickles and/or onion, but it just comes plain with white sauce. For dinner, I ordered the catfish with hush puppies, mac cheese and greens. Yes, yes and yes! My order had two very large fillets that were crispy and tender, but a tad bit underseasoned. The hush puppies were more cakey and less corn meal than you'd expect but still good. Add some honey butter and ittakes them over the top. The mac cheese was seriously some of the best I've ever h...
Wow! I had heard that Rodney Scott knew his way around BBQ, but tasting is believing! The 14-year old even said, "These are the BEST ribs I 've ever Eaten!, and growing up in Birmingham, he 's had quite a few ribs! The ribs were flavorful, caramelized on theoutside, yet SUPER tender on the inside. The pork (plate) was covered in spices, visually, but, just the right amount of YUM!!!I tried all of the sauces, they are a perfect compliment, but, the meat is so good, it doesn 't even NEED it. Hands down, theBEST collards I 've ever had. Not too vinegary, with a little hint of spice. Mac cheese was very tasty, too! We WILL be back tohave more, very soon!
Wow! I had heard that Rodney Scott is a master of BBQ, but tasting it truly confirms that! Even my 14-year-old remarked, "These are the BEST ribs I've ever eaten!" And considering he grew up in Birmingham, he’s had his fair share of ribs! The ribs were full of flavor, beautifully caramelized on the outside, and incredibly tender on the inside. The pork plate was generously seasoned with spices, adding just the right touch of deliciousness! I sampled all the sauces, which complemented the meat perfectly, but honestly, the meat is so exceptional that it doesn’t even need them.
During a work trip, I discovered Rodney Scott's just a short stroll from my hotel. I had lunch there one day and came back for dinner the next. At lunch, I tried the turkey sandwich, which was smoky, juicy, and incredibly tasty. I thought it could have used a touch of acidity, maybe from pickles or onions, but it was served simply with white sauce. For dinner, I opted for the catfish, accompanied by hush puppies, mac and cheese, and greens. Everything was excellent! The meal featured two generous fillets that were perfectly crispy on the outside and tender inside.

I went with a friend to try Rodney Scott's BBQ after following one of the restauranteur's protégés on Instagram. The space is charming and perfect for photos. Seating is ample, accessible, and well-suited for large groups. The atmosphere gave off cozy, nostalgic indoor picnic vibes. As for the food, I personally prefer sweet sauces, but the three sauce options were all vinegar-forward and didn’t quite satisfy that craving. We also ordered all of the sides to...
I ordered the whole hog pork plate with slaw. This dish is a popular choice, and while it was tasty, it wasn't anything extraordinary, as the pork was slightly dry. However, the sauces were delicious and struck the perfect balance between spicy and sweet, which really enhanced the flavor of the meat. The atmosphere felt a bit quiet since it was Monday night, but I definitely plan to return to try more of their meat options!
I absolutely love Rodney Scott BBQ! I’m willing to go out of my way in Birmingham just to eat there. Their smoked wings are among the best I’ve ever tasted—crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, packed with fantastic smoked flavor. The counter service is quick, and the location itself is spacious, featuring excellent outdoor dining options.
Don’t get me wrong—I love the food at Rodney Scott’s, but honestly, it’s way overpriced. I ordered a rib sandwich to take home for the Super Bowl, and it cost me $16. The taste was excellent, but the portion size didn’t justify the price.

I had an incredible brisket sandwich for lunch today. This was my first visit to this restaurant, and it certainly won't be my last. If you're in the Homewood area, you definitely need to check it out!
