Rib Shack Smoke House
A casual barbecue restaurant in Rocksbury Plaza with roots in a 2009 St. Louis original, which came to Omaha in 2021. It offers dine-in, takeout and catering. Ribs, brisket and wings come with classic sides.
Rib Shack Smoke House traces back to a 2009 original in St. Louis, Missouri, where it became known for down-home soul food and barbecue. The Omaha restaurant opened in 2021 in Rocksbury Plaza at 10841 Q Street, bringing the same slow-cooked ribs and smoked meats to southwest Omaha. The website does not name the owners.
The restaurant is casual and run with takeout in mind: it offers dine-in, takeout, curbside pickup, no-contact delivery and full-service catering for birthdays, weddings and corporate events. That flexibility makes it handy for a group staying in a rental who would rather eat at the house than book a table.
The menu is built on St. Louis-style ribs, smoked wings, beef brisket, jumbo whole chicken wings and smoked turkey ribs. Sides include collard greens, mac and cheese, the house potato salad and corn bread, and sweet potato pie closes the meal. Sandwiches of pulled pork, pulled chicken and brisket are offered with slaw and pickles.
Hours are generous, running 11 am to 9 pm Monday through Thursday, 11 am to 10 pm Friday and Saturday, and a shorter 12 to 8 pm on Sunday. It is a good choice for a casual family dinner or a catering order for a gathering, particularly when you want soul food sides rather than the Texas-style approach.
