Do yourself a "flavor". Stop by and let Duke put a smile on your face as he greets you to his amazing bbq spot along the Fox River Bike Trail in the revitalized East Dundee. Surprise your family tonight and bring home some BBQ!

We got Duke's catered at our company for lunch. Best pulled pork and brisket I have eaten in my entire life. Sides were also delicious! They came all the way to Sycamore to deliver. I'm thinking of getting this for some future family parties as well...

WOW!!! Perfect 1/2 slab of Ribs & pulled pork Ribs was $15 and 1 lb pulled pork was $20 pretty decent price but the taste is delicious perfectly done highly recommend this little caboose BBQ by the train tracks 😋 👍😍 mmmmm!!! good 👍 Very friendly service too We placed our order by the window cashier told us to pull car by the back steps waited a few minutes and it was fast and friendly service. Definitely will be back🥰.

The Brisket sandwich was delicious BUT way way overpriced for the amount of food you get. $16 for a sandwich with a bag of chips? (no coleslaw today because they said it was a car show day) ?? I would have expected a HUGE sandwich for that price.

Very cool location and when I got close all I could smell was the meat cooking in the smokers. I ordered the brisket sandwich, the meat and the sauce were delicious! I should have asked for more sauce to put on the Mac and cheese...next time. I will be back next week to try the ribs! The owners are very friendly and welcoming. Just a heads up there is not indoor seating, outdoor only. It's in a nice little downtown area right off a bike path.

Oh my, oh my! Savory, sweet, tender, juicy, delectable pulled pork! The pulled chicken was equally delicious, smoky, peppery, luscious! We drove from Elgin/South Elgin to try Dukes and it did not disappoint. Be ready to eat your meal at an outdoor table and lick your fingers a lot!

$$ This is a top place for BBQ food. Everything is cooked and made fresh right on site in large smokers. Specials change, but you can't go wrong with anything on the menu! Even the sides are great! Iconic red train caboose playing blues music is unique. Take to go or sit outside at picnic tables.

7/22/2023 - Just tried Duke's Blues N BBQ - best best best ribs we have ever had! So meaty, perfect seasoning, sauce & smoke!! I see now why they run out of food & need to shut down early - call before you go. Sides were home made not industrial generic. So cute - it is a train caboose with carry out & outdoor seating in a beautiful setting off of the bike trail.

The food is incredible, Duke and his family are great people! The caboose atmosphere in downtown East Dundee catches your eye and pulls you in to enjoy some amazing food. From the sauce, to the sides, to the meat, everything is incredible! Highly recommend stopping in for the vibes of a good "family BBQ."

Enjoyed a delicious dinner tonight. Some of the Best ribs I've eaten in a very, very long time! Beans were also super good. Wife ate the brisket before I could sample a bite. I Highly recommend pulled pork too. Wish they had some banana pudding! Try it all and you won't be disappointed. Thanks Duke for a great meal!

The food is incredible, Duke and his family are great people and the caboose kitchen with the take out/picnic table only atmosphere in downtown East Dundee is unique and fun! It feels like going home for a family bbq, and that says so much. Note: they do not have traditional hours and are typically only open on the weekends, unless that has changed. It’s a good idea to check their website or Facebook page before heading over!

Dukes BBQ is a fantastic joint, and the owner is a good guy. Just ate there for the 1st time today, and the ribs are the best. Great dry rub and sauce. Talked to the owner Duke, and he is a good-hearted person. The train caboose is a cool location, too. Mac and cheese is great!

I am a fan of Great BBQ and Duke’s is the best I ever had. Rib tips, BBQ chicken, Slabs of Ribs, Pulled Pork, Brisket etc ….it is all lovingly smoked to perfection onsite in huge barrel grills and smokers,. Duke , his father Tanzy and the whole staff are very friendly to everybody and they have the blues playing for a great vibe. For you cyclists, it is right on the bike trail! Come and try Dukes, you won’t regret it….I guarantee it!

I cant believe how amazing this food is!! By far the best bbq I've ever had!! My family tried pulled pork, pulled chicken, ribs, beans and Mac. They were sold out of brisket so will get that next time. EVERYTHING was so delicious! and man those ribs hit different!! I'm still thinking about them. Best ive ever had!

An exceptional experience w/Duke's! He catered into our workplace and did not disappoint. The brisket, pork and hotlinks were amazing, and sides were incredible. You've never had baked beans like these! Delivered hot and on point! Thank you Duke!!
