A nice downtown location in Henderson Kentucky, that is easy to find with free convenient parking in front. This is a new BBQ restaurant in town,and unfortunately I can only call it below average at best as the Brisket i had was way over cooked and dry. They do have an excellent variety of in house sauces but they couldn’t even improve the taste. The baked beans lacked flavor, the bread , Mac & Cheese tasted pretty decent. Seating was nice with no waiting , excellent quick service was also appreciated, I do hope they improve their food, as it seems like a nice place to go for dinner, but currently I wouldn’t recommend

Had an awesome experience at Homer’s! The staff was both welcoming and knowledgeable. Our food came quickly even though they were busy! We loved the fried okra, Mac n cheese, street corn salad, brisket grilled cheese, and bologna sandwich. The other person that came with us loved the brisket Mac n cheese. Sauces were delicious, the sweet sauce was my favorite! The atmosphere is awesome. We will definitely be back to try more of the menu, everything sounded so good.

Great food. If you’re craving different, definitely check this place out. Good service, loved the food. Parking can be a hassle. BBQ is tender an you get to pick your own sauce.

The food is amazing. I had the brisket grilled cheese and the street corn and they were both amazing. The street corn has some spice and I loved it, but be warned it may be too spicy if you don’t handle spiciness very well. I will definitely be coming back to try more!

To start, I am not a fan of Hometown Roots. When I heard the owner was opening a barbecue place I responded with something along the lines of “meh.”

They catered our wedding and everything was absolutely amazing. They were flexible with what we wanted and were willing to do anything to make it happen. And they were super easy to communicate with— I had no day of stress with them! I would definitely recommend and will be taking trips over to Henderson just to get some more of their delicious food

Finally made it to Homer’s while in town and was not disappointed. Took my mom, sister and her husband. I had the 2 meat Brisket and Cheddar Jalapeño Sausage with baked beands, potato salad and burgo. The Brisket was on point. Mom and my sister both ordered the ribs and thought were delicious. Brother In Law got the French Dip Brisket sandwich and said it was very good. Beer was nice and cold as well. Service was incredible. Believe the hype and get there to try it out.
