Sparky's Roadside Barbecue

"If you’re looking for a place where you can loosen up your buttons, roll up your sleeves and dig into good BBQ after a long day at the office, then look no further than Sparky’s. Set to the backdrop of an appropriate selection of Americana tunes, you'll get your hands dirty with favorites like the pulled duck sandwich with hoisin BBQ sauce and a side of mac n’ cheese or french fries. Feel like indulging? Go for some craft beer or a slice of key lime pie." - Lemon Yellow

"Sparky's Roadside Barbecue, Downtown Miami by Lemon Yellow. If you’re looking for a place where you can loosen up your buttons, roll up your sleeves and dig into good BBQ after a long day at the office, then look no further than Sparky’s. Set to the backdrop of an appropriate selection of Americana tunes, you'll get your hands dirty with favorites like the pulled duck sandwich with hoisin BBQ sauce and a side of mac n’ cheese or french fries. Feel like indulging? Go for some craft beer or a slice of key lime pie."

"Gather round the table and let Sparky’s do the grilling. Select from dishes including spare ribs, pulled pork, boneless and skinless Southern fried smoked chicken thighs, and brisket ranging from $12 to $22 per pound. Sides of baked beans, collard greens, coleslaw, and macaroni and cheese are also available in single portions, pints, and quarts and priced at $3.50, $7, and $13, respectively." - Stacy A. Moya, Olee Fowler

"Miami certainly isn’t known as a barbecue town and our options show it. Sparky’s, however, is a rare exception and makes simple, tasty barbecue. This casual spot is really the only place in Downtown where you can order a beer and a plate of smoked or grilled meat. The St. Louis-style ribs are very tasty and they also have some Miami-specific barbecue takes - like their version of a vaca frita called the “fried cow,” which subs in pulled brisket for pork and is very good in sandwich-form." - Ryan Pfeffer
