BBQ Omaha

George Perkins and his wife Ossy just happen to have the best BBQ in Omaha- they pull up their ‘Perk’s Bar-B-Que’ smoker on a Thursday in a mall on 85th and Center and stay until Saturday. The menu is simple: rib sandwich, pulled pork, hot links, slab of ribs, chicken all smoked with firewood from friends’ trees. George has been making BBQ for 50 years – he says “I’m not bragging. I’m the best I know”.
