Shiver's BBQ

"This place is excellent!! The best barbecue we've had anywhere in Florida. We got the beef brisket with two sides. Tender brisket with excellent barbecue sauces was fantastic!! The sides, corn casserole and baked beans were perfect!! Don't let the outside, which is older, deter you from visiting this wonderful family restaurant! You won't be disappointed if you are a barbecue fan!"

"We used to enjoy stopping by here, and have given great reviews in the past. However on a recent visit we were a bit disappointed. Food was not as good and service was not friendly nor helpful. When trying to discuss a food allergy, I was given a bit of attitude. We got takeout and found we weren’t given any sauce to go with my husband’s brisket or any napkins/utensils. The food ended up being average at best. Overall I would still recommend it based on that previous experiences were good and perhaps it was just an off night."

"This is the sort of restaurant that will have you looking into local residential real estate. Food was excellent - delicious ribs with some crispness on the exterior, juicy brisket and the collard greens were very tasty. Sweet potato soufflé was also a surprise winner."

"Good food, friendly staff, clean restaurant. Definitely was a hefty portion of food for the price, I had the two meat combo with sausage and pulled pork. They have a variety of BBQ sauces, personally I can’t do super spicy things and I’m not a big fan of the vinegar based sauces either, however they did have multiple sauces that I liked myself, and even though I didn’t like all of them, I appreciate the selection. I definitely also appreciate the size of the sausage links, it seems so many places have little sausages and charge the same price for them, so larger sausage nicely proportioned to the other meat quantities is nice to see. And everything tasted great!"

"Shivers in Homestead, FL is a hidden gem for BBQ enthusiasts. This small restaurant serves up exceptional, authentic BBQ that's worth the wait lines. The BBQ ribs are a standout, perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. The variety of sides they offer complements the main dishes, adding to the overall dining experience. While you might need to wait for a table due to the restaurant's size, the patience is rewarded with delicious food. The drive to Shivers is a bit out of the way, but it's definitely worth making the effort. What sets this place apart is not just the quality of the food but also the reasonable prices, a rare find these days. Whenever I'm in the mood for genuine BBQ, Shivers is my go-to spot. Highly recommended!"
