Bubba's is a down-home Texas bar and BBQ. The walls are covered in Americana and the worn stools are covered in the middle-aged expat crowd who lives in the area. Ken Walker, the "Bubba in Bubba's'", takes his 'que serious, and when he's not perched on the bar stools right along with the crowd, he's doing something BBQ-related with his custom smoker, stock of applewood, and probably some type of ribs.

Ok, well not exactly like home. There are some differences in the taste, but then again every BBQ place has a different taste. I'm originally from Texas and I thought for the next year while I was in Shanghai I'd never be able to eat some good southern BBQ, but then someone told me about Bubba's!
I walked into the restaurant and it felt like I was back in Texas again! Banners from all sorts of different universities and colleges all around the States. Some live performers singing good ole country songs. Bubba's definitely created the atmosphere I was missing.
Went to Bubba's for a team dinner so we got to try a bit of everything. For appetizers we got the stuffed jalapenos. Great creamy, spicy flavor. The briskets looked and tasted a bit different from what I'm used to, which was sort of disappointing. The best part were the ribs. The meat was tender and not dry. The flavor from the dry rub got you every bite. With every good BBQ place comes good BBQ sauce and the sweetness and tanginess from their BBQ sauce were just right.

Wednesday Night
Entered Bubbas BBq Shack.7.30pm No one greeted us, waited a couple of mins before 1 waitress finally noticed us, showed us a seat, shoved a couple of menus in our faces. We put our jackets behind our chairs, and opened the menus when she came back and asked "what dya want" It had been literally 90 seconds before that she gave us the menus. This did not kick off the evening well
The burgers Rmb80 + we ordered were over cooked and not seasoned well. the fries were limp and cold, coleslaw was soggy and looked like an afterthought. We complained to the waitress who just kind of shrugged and said she would inform the kitchen but she didnt take our plates away.
The only thing that wasnt too bad was the smoked chicken Rmb80 which they claim was USDA but it was probably just a marketing thing as we have had better local chicken at other cheaper places.
Paid the bill despite not getting our fries changed or coleslaw revitalised and even got a roll the eyes look from the waitress when we took back the rmb12 change
Wild horses will never bring us to Bubbas ever again.
