Just had a similar experience at Joes Bbq in Kansas City.

Are the Shelbyville tourists in the room with us? Ain’t never heard of anyone claiming Shelbyville a tourist destination.
Edit* but to stay on topic. I understand OPs grief. That’s a poor showing of bbq

Those beans are straight out of a can.
I’d throw this plate back at the cook.

Since when is 4.0 on Google highly rated?

Some people just don’t know any better. It’s like how people come to Buffalo and go to the anchor bar even though it’s trash

Here’s our home made can of bush beans!
Sure you can open one yourself, but that would require time and our skilled chefs can do it better

There is at *least* one thing to be pissed off at in each photo.

Looks really pedestrian. Highly rated by who?

The food there is terrible. I left a bad review. I got pickled BBQ liver with aged sauce and bread pateê. It was rank. They didn’t give me a side of demon onions and they were stingy on beans with these brats sausages in them all cut up. When I asked them for cheese with my bbq they gave me Kraft singles because it’s the only cheese that doesn’t sting my lips. I hate this place. Overpriced and bland food that prepared badly. They remind me of a bbq place that boiled meat out liquid smoke on the meat with bbq sauce said it was the best they had in town. Throw up.

Probably overpriced but it actually looks good to eat. I’ve seen too many places try to be fancy with inedible potato salad, and garbage in the beans and greens. Just give me simple food with a good sauce.

We have a place in the Chicago burbs that gets rave reviews for very mid-tier bbq. And cheap, shitty sides. Most people just don’t know any better.
