Welcome to KC’s Rib Shack Barbecue restaurant. New Hampshire’s favorite BBQ for over two decades. At KC’s Rib Shack, serving the world’s finest hickory-smoked ribs and BBQ is our passion. Our food and exceptional service are definitely two things we take seriously.

Our Southern style Barbeque, Bar-B-Que, Bar-B-Cue, just Q, or however you spell it, is seasoned with our own recipe of different dry rubs and cooked without sauce. Its then cut to order and prepared straight from our smokers which run 24 hours a day…

What a great place. Food is excellent and large portions. I The starters could be meals in and of themselves. I’ve been a few times and there always seems to be a wait-but not long. We did call ahead seating.

Nice exterior. One of those very cluttered decor interiors with old signs and things. Food and service was very good. Loved their signature sauce. Ribs and beans were great and really liked their macaroni salad. Very sweet and good waitress. Husband had sliced brisket and there was a lot of meat for a whole 2nd meal. Bar and large screen tv’s, one really huge one…upstairs.

I’ve never eaten there before. I ordered the pick-2, some brisket and pulled pork with a couple sides and corn bread, was only about $22. According to the menu it’s a single person meal lol. You could EASILY feed 2 grown adults off it. The meat was incredible. The sides were very good, I’m a Cole slaw guy and they know how to make it. I’m not one to hype a place up so much but ive been craving some BBQ. If you want a place that’s local, easy to eat at or order take out, and is priced pretty dang good compared to others. This is the spot. Awesome food and the restaurant itself is super cool to look at with the old fashion feel and antiques scattered all over.

We went here as a family for Father’s day. The wait was long (not their fault). The food was great! We had a sampler so it came with a little of all their meats, two sides and corn bread. We had a booth in the upstairs bar. The atmosphere and decorations are awesome in this old historic barn. I would definitely go again.

This visit we were in the awesome bar area. Started with a drink and onion ring appetizer which was great. My meal was a combo with two meat selections, rwo sides and corn bread. My lunch partner had a large garden salad with delicious chicken. We ordered a side of coleslaw to share.

Some of the best ribs I’ve ever had. The meat melts off the bone… I’ve made it a mission to stop by every time I’m in the area. Wings and hush puppies are amazing too. Good portion sizes and friendly service too

Solid BBQ. Great sides. Perfect portions. Delicious selection of BBQ sauces. Really nice atmosphere and decor with tender meats. During peak hours you might need to wait for a table but it’s worth it and the longest I had to wait was about 10 minutes. Friendly service and above all, phenomenal food.
