LOVED IT! With BBQ spots poping up on every corner like latte stands in the 90's it's hard to find good BBQ. The Hubs and I have tried most of them in the area and this by far is one of our favorites. We had the BBQ brisket sandwich and pulled pork sandwich. Both came on a Kaiser roll piled high with a dab of slaw on top. Sauce isn't too sweet but not too vinegary either. We thought it was really good. The sides also were all very good. I loved the mac & cheese. Located next to Subway it's a little spot with just a few tables. Very clean and the staff was very helpful. We dined in but you can call a head for take out or sit and enjoy REAL sweet tea while waiting for your order. The hubs and I really enjoyed this and will probably make the trek up there again for BBQ. I may even stop and get TO GO and try to pass it off as my own. :-)

Simply amazing food! Good size portions and the flavor is out of this world. One word describes it all...WOW

everytime i go there is closed so i go to jack in the box what a messed up place one time i did no slaw no going back
(1)Miss S.
These folks do some dang good bbq! I stop in on my way home from workin' on the farm in Stanwood for their ribs slathered in delicious sauce that is tangy and sweet. All of the sides are delicious. My favorite is the roasted garlic red potatoes that come with gravy. It is sin - ful. The pork or hot link sandwich comes on a huge cheese roll and is a great bargain. They have a picnic table outside and refils on sweet tea! I'm going there again tomorrow!
(5)J C.
Good, fast service and really good pulled pork sandwich. Reasonably priced since the sandwich is generously sized. Always great to support a good, locally owned business that is doing their thing well. Highly recommend!

I'm not sure what politics have to do with BBQ? I give this place 4 stars. I tried a 3 meat combo last night, with baked beans and cole slaw. The meat tasted good, but was drenched in BBQ sauce that I thought was too sweet. If I go back, I'll try it with the sauce on the side instead. Brisket was a little fatty. Cornbread was excellent. The cashier was friendly, but I had carry-out so I didn't experience the wait staff's service. I tasted my wife's mac & cheese and garlic red potatoes, and rate them 2 stars and 3 stars, respectively.

Good, solid q. Not legendary. Potato side awesome, cornbread amongst the best. Ribs: good smokering, done dry-style with sauce on the side. Somewhat inconsistent on ends. Spare ribs only, no baby backs. Sauce tasty Kansas City style, no heat but savory. Ribs are oversalted in the rub, but that's minor. Chicken very nice and meat falls off the bone. A good place for a BBQ fix, but not Arthur Bryant's. (Kansas City). Will do until a great place arrives in Snohomish County. The review mentioning Tony Roma's? Who are you kidding? Might as well go to Denny's.
(4)Anna G.
Loved this place. The bbq sauce delicious, staff was friendly, and price was affordable.

I f you like Famous Daves, don't go here, you will be disappointed! First off we get here at 5:00pm on a Friday and are told that there is no chicken until 5:30. So we take off and come back at 5:00. Yay! Chicken is ready. My freind orders a chicken sandwich but doesn't want the bread, so the lady owner suggests ordering a half a chicken, which is $15.00 compared to a $10.00 sandwich. I really doubt she could eat a half chicken.... So I suggest ordering the sandwich without the bun which she does. And she asks for no mayonnaise also. I order the pulled pork sandwich which is supposed to come with a small side. The board showed jojos for 4.98... thinking these could be used as a side I order these. She doesn't ask me what I want for the small side. So I assume it is the jojos. Then when she tells me how much my total is I ask her how come it is so expensive and she tells me it is because of the side of jojos. I don't think to ask her about the small side I am supposed to get.... Oh. And their pop machine was not working so you were able to choose between a few assorted cans of pop that she had in a bowl on the counter. While we are waiting for our food, which took about 15 to 20 minutes a table next to us was having her fix their bill for some reason.... When we get our food I asked for a little mayonnaise for my jojos. She brings me a small plastic container of mayo with a bill for 54 cents.... Really? You are going to charge me for a small amount of mayo after all this? Did she take off money for the bun and mayo that my freind didn't want? Heck no! My bun was hard, I had to walk up to the front to get a knife and the meat was not cleaned off the bone properly. I had big straps of the hard outside of the pork in my sandwich which was very difficult to chew. ..... The experience was not pleasant. I cannot believe they have been in business for as long as they have. Won't go there again and sure won't recommend this place to my friends....
(1)Brian E.
Huh, closed on a saturday night at 6:30, confused?!? Hours posted said open till 8:00, too bad, looks good on Yelp..... Well I figured out the mystery. Its not Sticky Fingers, its Big Sticky's, not part of the chain as indicated on yelp. And they aren't open at night, so I don't know if their food is fantastic, but I'll try to get there when its open. Change the title of the restaurant please, and post the hours. facebook.com/pages/Big-S…

Okay so went here for a birthday party and that was planned in advance and they were out of everything. The only thing they had was rib tips and those loaded potato plate things that look soooo gross. I ordered the rib tips. Everything came out on plastic plates. All I could think about is the food being so hot and melting the plastic not only that but how toxic could that be. I ordered the sweet tea...OMG they have no idea what sweet tea is. They made regular tea and put sugar in it. Nope disgusting! Overall the food was not good they only had a limited menu the prices were okay but if your okay with eating on plastic plates and watered down drinks I guess it works out.

Found this little gem on our way back from the Washington Ferry. We were super hungry and happy to stop in for a late lunch. It's now actually called Big Sticky's Bbq! This restaurant is a straight up mom and pop type establishment. Nothing fancy about it, which I liked. It's nice and clean. Juanita was our server and she was super nice! You order at the counter and they bring it to your table. We enjoyed everything that we ordered: -Brisket: nice and tender thick cuts of meat -Pulled pork: also cooked well, very tender -Ribs: Fyi, it is smothered in sauce. If you do not like too much sauce maybe ask them to put it on the side. The ribs are not fall off the bone but tender enough to rip the meat off with your teeth or fork. All the plates are good size portion of meat, it comes with a side and a piece of cornbread. Thanks again yelpers for your tips cause the day that we stopped in there was no mention of any pies being on the menu or the dry erase board. Since we were chatting with Juanita I asked her about the pies and she said she literally just took it off of the board because she only had 1 slice left. Thank goodness we asked cause that day she had 1 slice of her key lime pie. It was super good!! I've had a fair share of key lime pies and Juanita's homemade pie was smooth and creamy. Not overly tart and not super sweet either. I wish she had a whole pie cause I would've bought one! Since we were headed to a family party we decided to take some bbq from Sticky's to the party. Our family who actually lives in Seattle absolutely loved the bbq from this establishment too. They said they've been looking for some good old bbq that was not all commercialized in a chain restaurant. If we are back in the area we'd definitely make our way out here, especially cause the casino is right across the freeway! Restrooms: One shared bathroom. It was clean and stocked.

Eesh. 24 hours later and I'm still recovering from terrible indigestion that kept me up all night. Closed for a month due to the cook and server quitting, we were there for their first day open again. I think I can see why they had to rehire. Maybe Gordon Ramsay's TV crew should pay them a visit? The owner and manager sat around doing nothing but chat to the customers, while they visually got frustrated by the new girl on the job. The new girl was clearly nonplussed to be there as well. We ordered the brisket, one of only two options available mid-day. I think it was old and reheated, because it was tough. Tough and flavorless brisket? I can't even see how that could happen. I am a big fan of spice. Heck, I have an entire shelf in my fridge dedicated to a wide variety of hot sauces. But my first bite of sauce with brisket surprisingly burned my mouth to the point that I couldnt enjoy the rest of my meal. I had to scrape the sauce of, which meant that I had to eat the tough flavorless beef on its own. Blase. As for the sides... the mashed potatoes were from a box (with some bacon thrown in) and the baked beans were cold. Tasty but cold. We laughed at our experience until a couple hours later when my stomach was gurgling like a beast. I woke up at 3am with the worst digestion I have ever had. Pain way beyond discomfort. I still feel out of sorts and feel like it will take a while to heal. Change what I thought was going to be a 2-star review to 1. Sigh.

This place is f*cking fantastic! The meat is tender, juicy, and smothered in the best dang sauce this side of the Rocky Mountains. I am from the deep South, on the other side of Memphis, and I am head over heels in love with this place. I won't be going anywhere else, ever again. The brisket is to die for, and if you want to know what heaven on earth tastes like, order the spud bomb! It's enough food to feed a family of five, and not be hungry afterwards. The folks here are like gold too! Very genuine, hard working, funny, salt of the earth folks. The guy behind the grill is an artist, and his art just so happens to be edible! So far we've tried the brisket, the spud bomb, the garlic potatoes, the chicken, the coleslaw, and beans. It's all divine! Today we went out of our way for the spud bomb again, and weren't disappointed. I even brought some home, and can't wait until everyone goes to bed, so I can finish it by myself, in the dark. Lol. Do yourself a favor, run, don't walk to this religious experience!!
(5)Tami W.
Can you please be open 7 days a week, all day? No? Ugh. I cannot tell you how many times the family and I tried to come here only to find out it was the one day they are closed. We are *that* good at planning that it seems we always wanted BBQ on mondays. D'oh. Finally making it in (not on a monday) we were pleased with the hostess. She greeted us and explained how the whole place worked and that we weren't the only one who tried to come in when they were closed. We went for the pulled pork sandwiches and sides. Oh heaven. It came with a big cheesy bun that was soft and fresh, piled high with moist and flavorful meat and sauce with a bit of coleslaw on top. Messy, but delicious. The garlic potatoes? Hello. Amazing and full of flavor. There was not a complaint heard throughout our table, in fact I don't think we said much with our mouths full of this BBQ delight. When I come back, oh yes I will, I might actually try something not in a sandwich. But, I wouldn't hold your breath. OH! Just like any other authentic BBQ place, they do run out of things as the day progresses. If you find they are out of something, I can assure you that you won't be disappointed with anything else on the menu.
(5)Keith B.
Inconsistent food and service. Seem to run out of items frequently. Also not sure of the hygiene standards. Probably need to try this place a couple more times, but haven't found myself wanting to go back.
(3)Jesse D.
Well they get 1st at just cause I had too. This place has gone straight down hill and it went fast. The burrito had pinto beans no backed beans, no cheese, no sour cream barley any brisket it was dry like it was from the day before, coleslaw was horrible. My wifey and I ate here a lot don't know why happened but will never go back.I did get sick to my stomach that night they need to seriously clean up there act. Will never recommend this ave to anyone ever again.
(1)Maria H.
Seriously?!?! Closed on a Saturday night?? Wow way to keep customers. We too have been trying eat here... Another local restaurant will be happy to feed us. Sadly we will not try to come back here. Quality has declined over the years. Customer service apparently does not exist.
(1)Phil K.
Dang, I so want to 5-star this place and if I'd written this review 5 years ago I would have given it 6 stars. Yes, I would have learned how to use a computer, taken a hacking class, hacked into YELP and changed the option for this BBQ joint to offer a 6-star review. Alas, things have changed. The first time we visited the owner was there and was very involved and enthusiastic as any pit boss should be. He gave me, my son, and my GF each a FREE beef rib to try as we waited for our meal. He had much to be proud of. Yum! The guy in the kitchen (a tattooed 20-something) seemed to share the passion. Passion is a MUST for a BBQ place!! There is too much time involved to just go through the motions. In the following years they seem to have acquired a staff that is pleasant but seem to be just doing a job. It is sad. I really DO like the food here but BBQ is a sacred meal. BBQ is an art form and a religion and when I go into a BBQ place I want to be able to talk smoke with the cook. I want them to brag the place up. Don't get me wrong, I love this place! I always order the chopped chicken sandwich. It is usually moist, perfectly smoked, and served on a cheddar Kaiser roll, NOT a soggy hamburger bun like so many Northwest BBQ establishments seem to serve. It is topped with slaw which is good for balancing the spiciness of their spicy sauce. I order the spicy. On one of my first visits, when he still worked there, I asked the 20-something dude how spicy I could get the sauce. He replied, "I can make it stupid-hot for you." I asked for it "Stupid-hot" and was suffering the whole day. That is a win in MY book! But, as I have said, things have changed. The food is above average. I eat here several times a year. I like the food but there is no WOW factor. It's just good BBQ. I have to say that a good BBQ joint WILL run out of brisket or pork ribs or whatever. It takes hours and hours to perfectly smoke fall-off-the-bones meat. Don't complain about that, folks. That means their food is good and people want it. It is 4-star food with 3-star enthusiasm. If the owner were there chomping gum like Pete Caroll and high-fiving the team as they spiked the game-winning brisket I would indeed hack the system and 6-star them. The food is good. It is really good!!! I simply hold BBQ restaurants to an EXTREMELY high standard. It HAS to be hands on. It's not all about the food. ------------------------------------------- UPDATED: That was my review 6 months ago. I went back once with my son. I asked for their spicy BBQ sauce. They said they no longer make it. Remove a star. Went back today. Their special was brisket nachos. My GF ordered a brisket sandwich. They had to check to see if there was any brisket left. This was 40 MINUTES AFTER they opened. I ordered a chicken sandwich. They had no chicken. As I said, a good BBQ joint will run out of items. That's OK if it's 6pm. This was 12:40pm. They didn't sell all their chicken; they didn't make any. I will not go back.

I've attempted to go to this place four times in the last couple weeks and they've been closed. No one answers the phone, no sign on the door and no update on the thing they call a website. This place has amazing food... It's very frustrating to plan on lunch and then get let down four times. The chef of this place does great work but they obviously need someone to manage it. This would be a five star place if they would get their s*** together
(1)Bryce B.
Only reason not 5 stars is because this place can have sporadic hours. Short waiting time for food. Food is utterly amazing. Great service. Refered multiple people to this place
(4)Christie C.
Simply put: great food at reasonable prices. I had the pulled pork sandwich and it was an artful iteration of a timeless classic. The meat was SO tender, the ratio of slaw-bbq sauce-meat was on point. My boyfriend had the special of the day which was a kielbasa cheddar sandwich thing. I know he really enjoyed it because he kept talking about it, but I honestly sort of tuned him out because I was too focused on my pulled pork induced ecstasy. The service was also worth mentioning; the woman who took our orders and ran the front of house was super friendly and invested in our customer experience. She seemed really open to constructive criticism - too bad we didn't have any!
(5)Jeremy M.
Good as ever!
(4)Dave F.
This place is instantly at the top of my list for outstanding BBQ. The place is small and not exactly visually pleasing, but who cares when the meat is this good? I had a little of everything and it was all good. My favorites were the ribs (amazing smoke) and the brisket which is so tender it nearly melts in your mouth. The sauce is a little on the sweet side but they provide a decent habenero hot sauce if you need the heat.
(5)Sheila H.
Can't taste the BBQ over all the sauce! Meat smothered in BBQ sauce. I'll just do it at home.... Thank you very much!
(2)Alisa S.
Very yummy food! Friendly staff. Never heard of this place , just saw it on Yelp and stopped by. What a great decision that was! We ordered Pulled Pork sandwich with baked beans and French fries. It was delicious! We are definitely planning to come again and try out all the other items on their menu!
(5)Lawrence T.
I have to say, hands down the best BBQ I have ever had! The portions were massive, the sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. The coleslaw was perfect, most places are too sweet and watery. The gal working was super sweet.
(5)Nicole A.
Really disappointed. Our food was served cold, firstly. Secondly, the restaurant looked very unclean, which made us hesitant when eating our food. Most importantly though, it was very frustrating to be nickel and dimed. A bbq place charging for a side of bbq sauce? That's ridiculous. Not only that, but when we ordered were asked for fries and onion rings and only received onion rings. When telling the server she stated that the meal doesn't come with fries even though it states that it comes with one side. She could have told us that when ordering instead of just telling us after we already paid. We won't be coming back.
(1)Leyla D.
This was AMAZING BBQ. I don't think I have ever had such fantastic BBQ. The pulled pork was PERFECT. Not dry...not too sopping wet w/ sauce. I could detect a hint of smoke and it was so ridiculous...in a good way; we loved it. The bun was so good. The side of mac n cheese was heavenly. My husband raved about it all night and the next day. We can't wait to come back and try something new!
(5)Bethany w.
Disappointing. Bbq pork ribs were bland. Sauce lacked flavor and resembled A1 sauce. Ribs were huge. Beans were sugary again missing flavor.. Thing called spices and that doesn't mean salt, or sugar. Cornbread was old and sticky. When we walked in the cook said 'I need to re heat some ribs' should have been our sign just to walk away.
(1)Allie S.
After a hard day's work berry picking, we were on our way to Nomz Diner and found out they were closed. Stickey Fingers is just a block or so away, so we decided we'd give it a shot. I'm not a BBQ fanatic or an expert, but when I walked in I wanted to order EVERYTHING because it smelled so. damn. good. My friend and I took a bit to decide just because everything DID sound fantastic -- thankfully the server was willing to let us know what her favorite items were and we ordered accordingly. I ended up with the three meat combo, which came with brisket, pulled pork and kielbasa. I really enjoyed all of the meats, as they all came slathered with a sweet and spicy BBQ sauce. Super good! I had the garlic potatoes and baked beans as my side at the suggestion of the server, and ordered an extra side of mac & cheese. My order came with a baby loaf of cornbread. My friend ended up with the pulled pork sandwich, which she also adored -- it came on a huge cheesy bun with a side. The only downside to the meal was that the mac & cheese by itself was pretty lackluster -- however, they had habanero hot sauce on the table and when I added some BBQ sauce and the habanero sauce it became one of the best things on my (very tasty) plate. I ended up with enough food for at least two more meals. If I'm ever back in Arlington I will definitely keep Stickey Fingers at the front of my mind for delicious BBQ.
(4)Huy N.
Great food and friendly service, what else can you ask for! Been here a few times now and definitely be back for years to come! TRY the BRISKET!!!!
(4)Andy B.
We have gone to this place twice. The first time, was at 5 pm, and already they didn't have any ribs. So in all fairness, we tried them again yesterday, and on the bulletin board said "no ribs" and then I went to order chicken...the clerk said "Oh yeah we don't have any of that either." Half of your menu is based on RIBS and CHICKEN...if you have none made,or not the quantity it takes to meet supply and demand, then shut your doors. Their mac n cheese is poor quality because its just the crap they get in the 5 gallon bucket, the dirt cheap stuff. If you are going to charge the prices you do, then step it up and give the quality in meat and side dishes your customers deserve.... Very disappointed. We wont be back.
(1)Bryan E.
Sticky Fingers formally know as Big Stickey's is some of the best Bar-B-Que I have eaten in the pacific NorthWest. I am originally from Texas and we know how to Bar-b-que any and everything. The Spud Bomb is truly The Bomb.... If your shying away from carbs like I am currently recently discovering and embracing the Paleo lifestyle, then try the ribs with little or no sauce. They are delicious. Well hope you enjoy those Stickey fingers when your done choking some great Que. Big Eddie
(4)Patrick H.
Excellent BBQ, love the beef brisket. Prices are high but I guess you get what you pay for.
(5)Joys A.
Bbq ribs, garlic potatos & mac was delicious! I received prompt and great service. I will be returning with some lunch buddies soon.
(5)Stacey T.
Excellent Bbq!! Try the pulled pork sandwhich..& good prices for the amount of food you get.
(5)Judy L.
Best BBQ in town! Love the pulled pork sandwich. Ribs are great too! Awesome sides.. Try the Mac n Cheese, baked beans or the garlic potatoes. Another favorite is the spud bomb.
(5)Amber A.
This was my second time here, it had been a while since I had been here. I was very excited to get some bbq. I got the large pulled pork meal. I was expecting to get a large portion for purchasing a large, but when they say you get two small sides, they really mean small sides. They probably should say "extra small" never that's what they seemed. It also says fresh garlic bread that comes with it. I LOVE texas toaste and I knew what it looks like. I am pretty sure they heated me some texas toaste. I don't want Texas toaste when I'm spending over $17.00 with tax. The portion of pulled pork wasn't bad, but again, if I'm paying that much for a large, then I don't want to know what the small looks like. The baked beans are delicious,I just wish they gave more. The slaw was mediocre. The pulled pork was pretty good. Do I think they give you what you pay for? No I do not. I felt ripped off and probably won't be returning.
(2)Jessica M.
Oh my goodness. YUM. Had a pulled pork sandwich. Probably the best I've ever had. I came back for dinner the next day and tried their ribs. The ribs were HUGE and drenched in the dangerously delicious (and addictive) BBQ sauce. Their sides were great, I really loved the baked beans and cornbread. My dad tried the brisket, and was crazy about it. Just writing this is making me hungry for some BBQ...
(5)Dale E.
Awesome! Fri night: Pulled Pork BBQ sandwich. Sat night: BBQ Chicken sandwich. Both on the Kaiser roll, TOASTED with cheese. Cole Slaw on top! I just had to come back on Saturday, it's so good. Best BBQ I've had outside of The South in a long time. Sticky indeed. I had to "Mmmmmh" out loud. Love the LP Album Art on the wall too Beats Famous Dave's hands down! This is my new regular place. See you next month when I'm back in town.
(5)Carol J.
The two people attending the restaurant were very pleasant. I ordered the brisket with side of coleslaw. The best part was the home made cornbread - jalapeño cheese cornbread! Coleslaw was tasty and I do not know if it was homemade, but it was good. The roll was delicous as was the BBQ sauce. I did not enjoy the brisket and will try the pulled pork next time. I recommend this restaurant, the cook was quiet yet kind and the women at the register was pleasant. I will be back.
(4)Robin M.
My friend owns a hair salon in the area...A Cut To Dye For...little shout out Lol. Anyway she took me to Sticky Fingers for dinner. Omg BEST BAR-B-Que since I lived in Texas. I don't live in Maryville but driving back ASAP going to try the ribs next. I had the pulled pork, Great Smokey flavor, lots of meat I couldn't even eat it all. The customer service was great...I found a gem of a place I hope anyone looking for Bar-B-Que will check this place out....Looks like a hole in the wall but its so great!!!
(5)Scott M.
Hands down the best BBQ in the Pacific north west! The atmosphere is great and the artwork on the walls is one of a kind. The wall is covered in BBQ competition awards so you know they know what they are doing! The servers are friendly and this restaurant really has a family owned small town chill atmosphere and I love it! Now the food... I haven't got a single thing from sticky's that hasn't tasted amazing and needless to say the "sticky" part really lives up to its name! They smoke their meat OVER NIGHT and you can really tell, they do BBQ the right way at sticky's, this isn't some mass produced fast food joint, this is BBQ done right!
(5)buck w.
Pretty average to say the least. I had swung in for a quick lunch and ordered a pork sandwich. The sandwich: The meat was beautifully smoked to perfection. The bread was old and dry. The sauce Tasted as it was from a bottle from the grocery store meh. And why would you put coleslaw on your sandwich? it did nothing for it. My side was Mac and Cheese Which seemed as if it was just some store bought frozen mac and cheese. No soul in that stuff. The place is dirty. there are ribbons hanging that have mildew spots on them. And the place has lots of nicknacks that could really use a dusting. The meat itself is worthy but everything else was not worth crap.

This was our first time ordering take-out from here. I really liked the inside: great decor, smelled wonderful and the service was nice. Overall this is a mixed bag when it comes to their food. With that being said, we will return and give this place business as we really enjoyed some of the food. However, I have some issues with some of the menu items. I ordered the three meat combo and was very disappointed with both the brisket and the keilbasa. I expect brisket to fall apart on my fork and to be soft and tender. Mine was chewy. Enough said. The keilbasa was ok, but I was disappointed as I expect smoked-slow cooked sausage to be more tender. I have had spicy sausage at other BBQ's that melt in my mouth. The pulled pork was excellent, but could have used more sauce. Despite my experience with those two other items, we absolutely loved the pulled pork BBQ sandwich!! This is the item we will be back for again and again. We also really liked the BBQ beans-spicey with some pulled pork thrown in! Yum. The Mac and cheese are decent as well as the potato salad. Finally my meal came with cornbread which they forgot to add to the bag as it was really busy when I arrived. I also overheard them telling a customer that both chicken and ribs would not be available until the evening.....a real mistake FOR A RESTAURANT. I think with some tweaking and improvements this will be a great establishment.
(3)HeeBee G.
I am starting at 1 star just for the inconvenience of traveling all the way north for some great BBQ only to be told that they were "out of ribs." Mind you, they had just opened. I was seriously craving ribs, but went to my fall back: pulled pork sandwich with slaw. Heard the girl at the desk say, "um...she didn't make any slaw today." We put down our menu and left. Really folks, if you call yourself a ribs joint ya' just gotta have ribs...that's it. May give 'em another try based on the other Yelper reviews.
(1)katherine n.
They changed up the potato salad and now I'm not a fan (it was really oniony), but I had the three meat combo and everything else was amazing. And they are not affiliated with the chain restaurants and recently changed the name to reflect that.
(5)Vallen B.
Brisket and ribs are to die for. Very homely feeling
(5)Sheila L.
Whenever I'm heading towards the Marysville outlet mall, I think about BBQ! Particularly Stickey Fingers! This place serve one of the best ribs I've ever tasted along with the BEST garlic red potatoes that you will ever have! It is that good! First time coming here I ordered a side of baked beans and potato salad.. stupid me.. my fiance ordered the garlic red potatoes and I ate almost all of it off his plate. whoops! Usually I order off of their special menu which recently was the 3 ribs special that came with two sides for $9.99. Great price in my opinion. They also give you a lot of food that I always end up with taking home half.

Best BBQ in Washington so far. I have to say even better sauce than Rainin' Ribs on LCW and that's been my favourite for a while. If you are going to the Outlets, stop here on the way back. The pulled pork was divine. Seriously. Potato salad not so much, but the cole slaw looked good.

Stickey Fingers is the BEST BBQ in the area! =0p... By shear luck, my cousin & I just wanted a place to eat, drink, and wait for the traffic to wind down. My nose was greeted with the smell of good food. The young lady that greeted us, happened to be the daughter of the owner. She was genuinely friendly. The owner was also genuinely friendly, and took pride in his culinary creations. From the first bite, WE knew the rest of our meal was going to be delicious. The service was amazingly quick, friendly, and home like. The portions are bigger than I expected! The price was very reasonable. I rarely give 5 STARS, so you know I was blown away. The side dining area is nice, with actual vinyl record albums on the wall. If your near Everett, Marysville, Arlington ... I highly recommend STICKEY FINGERS BBQ!!!

Marysville's best Ribs, baked beans and cornbread. Just like Sheriff Andy Taylor said "That's mmm mmm Good. Get extra sauce so you can slather up for that all over Rib Eatin Experience. Nice folks cooking with heart.

Tried Sticky Fingers a few years ago and thought they served really great bbq. Went back a few more times after that first visit. Their ribs were tender and smothered in barbeque sauce (I prefer a dry rub, but it was more sweet that tangy so it was fine). Pulled Pork sandwich was really good - tender on a kaiser bun with coleslaw. Had to try the corn bread and baked beans - both yummy, too. However, on our recent visit it was so dissappointing. They were out of our favorites - no ribs or pulled pork and it was still early! We also noticed that they increased their prices... Oh well, maybe will drop by again in a few months...

Just popped in to get some dinner to go, super friendly staff...smells great, not like some of the other bbq places I have tried. Big thumbs up on the wing sauce, will have to try the host pepper sauce next time. Pulled pork and beef brisket was on point, baked beans were tasty..all in all we are happy fat kids.

I am an African-American, part Native-American Stanford Graduate (2 times) who lives on the Tulalip Reservation and I can tell you all for a fact that Kelly (Stickey Fingers/Big Stickey owner) is as far away from a racist as you can get. If your cooking is so bad that you have to put down this hard-working man who makes some of the best BBQ I have ever tasted (I also grew up in GA and married a man from Louisiana), then you are just a bitter, sad person. Now if you can appreciate some divine smoked meat and fantastic sides and don't care about getting your fingers dirty and not having classical music playing in the background while you get yo' grub on -- then this is the place for you. Kelly and his daugther are delightful people and we frequent their establishment often. They have catered our daughter's birthday party and threw in lots of free food and even offered advice as to where we could get other supplies for cheaper than they could provide. That's right you heard it -- a business owner who cared more about helping us make our party a success then trying to get rich quick. Long story short -- if you eat your pizza with a knife and care more about image than substance -- then you don't understand the soul of BBQ. Stickey fingers captures the evidence of what BBQ is all about -- good food, having fun and enjoying the alchemy of smoke and meat. PS: Cindy S, you should have asked for the sauce on the side and Kate B you will always find in the world what you put into it.

OK, this place is REALLY good... Had the 3 meat combo, and the girlfriend had the pulled pork sandwich. Everything on my plate was wonderful, although I might order the sauce on the side next time, since it's kinda sweet. But make no mistake -- it was delicious! The brisket was good. All the other meats were outstanding, as were the sides (we had the garlic red potatoes, beans, and mac & cheese, between us.) The cornbread was a little disappointing, although by the time we finished everything else, we didn't really care. It was A LOT of food. But the real star of the show was the pulled pork sandwich. It was on some kind of cheesy kaiser roll and was topped with a generous amount of barbecue sauce, and a scoop of coleslaw. It was ridiculously delicious. I was actually a little sad I didn't order it! All of the above, combined with the friendly and attentive service we received, means we will definitely be returning to Stickey Fingers BBQ.... Good stuff.
(4)Carrie S.
Yummm! We are BBQ fans, and definitely fans of this place! It's now called "Big Stickey's", instead of "Stickey Fingers". The food here is excellent, and they just expanded their interior, so there's much more room inside for seating. Never had a bad experience here.
(5)Bryan L.
The food has large portions but the quality isn't that great.
(2)Becky D.
Being new to the area we've been trying out all sorts of places to eat, this place as fantastic, had the brisket sandwich and mac and cheese. MAN was it fab. The place was clean and smelled of clean smoke, which is what you want when it comes to a bbq place. It was wonderful, a bit pricy but really really good. We've been abck a few times now! GREAT JOB! I did order mine with out the sauce though, and i'm kinda glad i did it was a bit much on my son's plate, but overall very good. I just wanted to add... My son left his diabetic bag with his monitor and insulin there, and we had been going to everywhere we had been, the lady called us and stayed open a few min longer so we could return and get his stuff.... THANK YOU Marysville is lucky to have you

best bbq in marysville, they are awesome hot wings!!

The pulled pork sandwich is very impressive. Some kind of onion/cheese kasier bun that is toasted, heaped with tender, smokey pulled pork. Drowned in sauce, and then topped with a bit of coleslaw. Amazing! Delicious! My buddy had the brisket and it was top notch! My only criticism is that the sauce is very strong (in a good kind of way), but you don't need a strong sauce when the meat is that good. If you get brisket, then try the sauce on the side so that you can enjoy the fantastically smokey meat on its own first. The cornbread also is a bit of a let down, but nobody's perfect. I liked the coleslaw, but the main story here is the meat, and it's a winner. The staff were nice and easy going. If you're ever stuck in the food wasteland known as the Seattle Premium Outlets, this place is less than a 10 minute drive away. I look forward to more BBQ.
(5)Mona M.
Best BBQ in the area, hands down. Ordering could have been easier, but once I picked it up and tasted it, I shut up. Holy moly. TRY THIS PLACE. amazing ribs, brisket, beans, and cornbread.
(5)Thom S.
The Mac & Cheese is a must try here and the ribs are slow smoked on site. No pressure cooked fake smoke stuff here.
(5)Kathryn E.
Love this place! Would make trip up from Seattle before we moved closer. Great ribs, and fantastic brisket. I love the mac and cheese and the corn breads. They have made the dining room bigger. Best BBQ I've had in Washington. Really delicious!
(5)Marc M.
@Kate B, It's not their fault that the Pro-American motif and attitude of the owners offends your anti-American libtard ideology. The food here is fantastic. Best BBQ in WA.
(5)Joyce L.
My 'Bucket List' is to try every BBQ I come across. I've passed this place several times but finally had time to stop for lunch. I got the pulled pork on the Kaiser bun with the coleslaw for a side. The sandwich arrived with a scoop of coleslaw on the top...very weird but easy to scoop off. Does anyone really eat it with the coleslaw on top? Kaiser roll very good, & meat was exceptionally tender but somewhat dry as too little sauce provided. I would rate the sauce as medium spicy. I ate the remaining 1/2 as an open half. The coleslaw looked beautiful but was totally tasteless. When I brought the basket back the counter girl asked if I wanted a lid for the coleslaw. I said no as it was totally tasteless. To her credit she did ask what they could do to improve it. Coleslaw is supposed to be 'sweet-sour & piquant'. This is evidently made with just mayonnaise...no vinegar or any spices. Maybe their clientele likes it that way. The couple next to me ordered the baked beans & were raving about it. I also have to commend the counter girl for not be put out to my comment about the coleslaw. Price is in line with other BBQ places.

This was really good barbecue. I'm gonna jump on that bandwagon straightaway. I was up visiting my family and I convinced my parents to try some thing new for a family dinner, albeit takeout. We grappled with what to get, but there was five of us (my missus, my mum, my dad, and me (which I have to honestly count twice due to my love for barbecue). We were going to go for the family pack designed for 4 to 7 people, but we decided against it and got three dinners to be split amoungst us. I am glad we did it that way. We got three "belt busters" -- the half rack of ribs, the pulled pork, and the kielbasa. This was REALLY good food. It would have been 5 stars, but for a few things I will discuss below. First the good. The ribs were fantastic. Great smoke flavor and texture. They were St. Louis style, which is, as far as I am concerned, the better type (compared to baby backs). The sauce was great -- a sort of deep rich Kansas City style. The meat was tender without dissolving when you picked it up or bit into it. The pulled pork was also really good, although on the dinner menu they called it pork shoulder -- I know that is the correct cut it comes from, but pulled pork as opposed to sliced, which I have seen in a few places too. Kielbasa was also very large and very rich, though I wasn't detecting a great deal of smoke off the meat. Each of these belt busters had two small sides that came with them. Collectively my family and I got coleslaw, potato salad and mac and cheese. They were all quite solid. We also got a large side of baked beans and they were great as well, although not what I was accustomed to -- they had large pieces of onion in them and they were very generously peppered. It had a nice spice to them without being really "spicy" or overpowering. We had wanted to get the brisket, but they had run out. We got there around 5:15 on Sunday evening. They close at 6 on Sundays. Believe it or not, I took the fact that they had run out to be a good sign. I was darned disappointed, but if they ran out, seems to me that people liked it and so I intend to get this my next opportunity. I don't hold the fact that they ran out against them. Not one bit. As it turned out, it was PLENTY of food and we had a great variety and everybody in my family enjoyed it. Okay, so now the not so good. These are fairly soft criticisms and should not be interpretted as a suggestion not to go there -- they are mostly just sort of a "warning" I guess. First, the website was out of date, particularly the menu. The website said they were not open on Sundays, when I know they actually are. The prices on the menu were also quite out of date. The family combo pack we were going to get, which was to include a whole chicken, a rack of ribs, four large sides, four cornbreads -- according to the website menu was $46. When I got to the restaurant, it was $68! Big difference. The prices on all the other menu items that I looked at were all at least a few bucks more. I'm not a webmaster, but I don't think it takes a lot of time or effort to update a website. Second "negative" is a bit of a criticism, but not a particularly strong one. A lot of the food was either cold or not all that hot. Frankly, the pulled pork, although having a great texture and flavor was downright cold. The cornbread was also cold. Again, this isn't a huge criticism since we got it take out and we had to drive it home, but I know it could not have lost that much heat, so this was a bit of a negative. The last one is that it is a bit on the pricey side. Had I been alone on this occasion, I would have gotten the full rack of ribs dinner; however, this dinner would have set me back $30. I can get a three item combo from Dr. Hogly Wogly's Tyler Texas BBQ at home (LA area) and for the same amount of money, gotten a platter of barbecue so large I have NEVER been able to finish it. If you are one of the (un)fortunate few who have been with me for barbecue, you would notice two things: (1) watching me eat barbecue/being in close proximity is like watching Wild Kingdom -- you also have to make sure you don't make any sudden movements and keep your hands in your own general vicinity lest I chew your arm off if it gets in my way; (2) I can eat a truckload of barbecue. Thus, I guess just to relate back to what I was saying, the prices seemed just a titch steep to me. All this being said, you can bet your ass I am going to go again the next opportunity I get.

I doubt anyone comes to Sticky Fingers for professional atmosphere or service, but their bbq is pretty darned decent - if you're a "eat the whole animal" type of person, which I for one, am not. My barbecue chicken sandwich was piled high with perfectly cooked meat drenched in sauce that was to die for. A bit of sweet, a bit of tang, a bit of spice; the kaiser roll was fresh and a bit crispy on the outside. However, less than halfway through my sandwich I lost my appetite after biting into a huge glob of fat (it may have been skin with some fat attached, I really didn't examine it too much, and the small restaurant is kept rather dark), followed shortly later by a few very small chicken bones. It's a matter of preference really, as my companion continued eating, happily filling his gullet to full despite my sudden loss of appetite (and repeated 'sly' removal of inedible food into my napkin) . Let me say that I was horribly disappointed, but not in the food itself, but rather in my inability to finish what was otherwise a very tasty sandwich! So for anyone who might have a problem with animal fat, skin and bones floating around your bbq sandwich, beware; but for everyone else, enjoy!!

Went in for lunch. The side dining room has walls covered with album covers from the 60's and 70's-pretty cool. Service was friendly. Now to the food. Ugh. I got chicken BBQ sandwich. There was a very generous amount of meat on a bun that had been baked with a cheesy crust. The chicken was not smokey in the least. The sauce tasted like it came from a bottle of Kraft BBQ sauce, in other words, gross. I chose the mac-n-cheese for a side dish. Huge mistake. Mac-n-cheese was luke warm and tasted like it came from a box. If you are going to serve BBQ, then have the decency to serve good BBQ sauce and please oh please serve good, from scratch mac-n-cheese. I could buy Kraft BBQ and a box of mac-n-cheese and have the same quality as Sticky Fingers. Do yourself a favor and drive a few miles north to Arlington to Moose Creek BBQ. So much better and worth the drive.

I had been looking forward to trying this place because of the other yelp reviews for quite a while now. They were closed twice randomly on the two times we tried showing up. But finally got to try it last night and maybe it is because I came later (around 7) but the brisket was pretty dry. It was still good but out of all the places ive had brisket in the area it was the worst because of this. Also I personally found their mac & cheese gross, and I love mac & cheese typically. Their fries weren't very good either, kinda plain. Not bad though. Maybe I will try them earlier in the day one more time.

Bodacious BBQ is gone; we've been out looking for a good BBQ spot. Heard this place had GREAT BBQ. I will try to be fair here but the review written by Kate B was SPOT on the pit master was there and running the cash register (which he couldn't seem to figure out) and rude, I get not being into people and into grilling' but come on; there wasn't any how are ya? Or suggestions on what to get for first timers, no posted menu's; only menu's at the counter. The pulled pork and brisket we're covered in cloying sweet sauce. There is no sauce choices except a green jalapeno sauce (not house made), bummer.Pulled pork and brisket were wet and mushy like they had been held in liquid. The pork ribs were dry and seemed re-heated, not fresh. Most disappointing was the smoke, there was very little smoke flavor. Hubby asked what he smoked with, he said hickory was too expensive to grill with so he uses alder since it is cheap and most people can't tell the difference. Bummer we can tell. I have made better with liquid smoke, sorry but true. The beans are over seasoned with ?? to many hot flavors muddled it and it is a bean that if you like it you will love it if you don't as we/I didn't, one bite was enough (The pit master said they were kick a*$ beans) hmmm not so much a#@ kicking going on there. Coleslaw is the same taste and texture of the Skipper's fish from decades ago. Cornbread was in small loaves, dry and overcooked with 4 pieces of corn in a loaf. Such a bummer over all. Great location, good atmosphere for a tacky made BBQ, very "kitschy" ... with a smile behind the counter or someone to pull off the attitude mabye we could give it another chance. But sorry lose the attitude and go put some wood on to make some fresh Q. *On a side not we were told to go back and try the loaded potato. We just can't go back to a place where the owner is so rude and food for the first time was sub par* Were still looking for good Q.
(1)Matthew H.
Nice clean establishment. Friendly service and pretty darn good food too. I had the beef brisket sandwich with a side of Mac & Cheese. I will come back for sure.
(4)DaTrut H.
This is perfectly acceptable barbecue and better than any other bbq in the area. That being said, it's not as good as other parts of the country so if you're an out of towner don't expect to have stories to tell about your bbq experience. Seafood and Teriyaki are the only two unique foods seattle offers. Again this BBQ was the best in the area just not the best ever. I think it's awfully expensive for the portion size. The ribs are excellent, the brisket had way too much sauce on it, I did like the mac and cheese. I frequent this place and will continue to do so. I hope someday we get a drier bbq in town, until then I'll take this with a smile.
(3)Kevin H.
Ordered a brisket sandwich. I liked the slaw topping but that was it. Too much sauce. It was like trying to cover up the meat which I really could not tell if it was smoked. Sorry I love good BBQ but this wasn't it.
(1)Don G.
This is THE place for some great BBQ! If you love ribs then you must check out Sticky Fingers! The BBQ pulled pork sandwiches are amazing as well. They need to bring back the $5 specials they had! Another dish to have is the Spud Bomb! OMG unreal! I swing by here to pick up some of their sauce when I BBQ at home. The sides are ok and can be a lot bigger. Baked beans and corn bread are good! Mac and cheese is so-so. The staff are also pretty cool and friendly. This is my fav place to eat in Marysville hands down!
(5)Teesha O.
gotta get the pull pork and slaw sandwhich (has to be on the kaiser roll, the other bread gets to soggy). ps...dont forget the homemade gooey mac, cheese and smoke ham.
(5)jay w.
unfortunately this place seems no relation to the stickfingers chain of the south, but it is still quite good. i had the brisket and it was tender, maybe not the best i've ever had, but this certainly not the most expensive bbq i've been. All the sides were decent also. the girl working behind the counter was very nice and asked if my food was good, which is a nice touch, and she checked on every other customer in the place too.
(4)Ron A.
Enjoyed the ribs. Different but really good. Highly recommend

My family and I went over the weekend--YUMM! I had their "everything in it" burrito--delish, though next time I would order it without the beans (I did not find the flavors to be complimentary with the rest of the burrito) and instead triple the amount of coleslaw stuffed into it. One reviewer really ragged on the Mac & Cheese, so I didn't order it for our kids. WRONG!!! My hubby decided to try it when they ran out of chips for our order. It was so good! Not your mom's homemade Mac, nor was it Kraft... it was gooey cheesy goodness! I ordered the garlic red potatoes because of all the good reviews. I found the sauce to be a bit much...I like being able to taste red potatoes... My son had the Kielbasa kids plate and he inhaled it. My daughter had the hot dog and just ate the bun (the dog was too salty). Both loved my hubby's Mac & Cheese & the corn bread. My husband had the beef brisket. It was different than what he was used to, but still good flavor. The slaw was great! For all of us, it was a bit on the expensive side, but we really liked the food.
(4)Julie S.
Good lord that's some tasty BBQ! Really! I've been there numerous times and the food is consistently delicious. Someone on here tried suggesting that they're racist. Nice try, but I've brought friends in who were nowhere close to being white and the employees were just as hospitable as ever. Just because they cook some mean BBQ it doesn't mean that they're racist hillbillies.
(5)Rachel W.
If you love yourself, you will eat here sometime. I can honestly say that this was the BEST meal both me and my husband have ever had. I ordered a small brisket with a rib, and even the small was so much food that I took half home. The cornbread was magnificent, the potato salad was delish, and the baked beans were heavenly. My husband ordered the brisket burrito, which was one of the most unique and delicious things we've ever had. The owner brought us some clam dip and chips on the house, which was fantastic. The meat is so tendered it falls apart, and the bbq sauce is delicious.
(5)Tram N.
if you are looking for some good ole BBQ, this is the spot! my husband and i accidentally found this place while we were looking for a place to eat before hitting up the outlets. and we are so glad we did because this place has been our favorite ever since. no other place can compare. we always make it a tradition to go here before we go outlet shopping. not only is the food good, but the service is good too. the gal who works the front counter remembers us and always says yes we have chicken ready! the whole staff is so pleasant when you chit chat with them. if i can give this place 10 stars i would!
(5)Lorna P.
It's not a high class environment. It's a small spot, sort of homey, but damn.... The BBQ is great! My boyfriend had the brisket and the smoke ring was perfect. It was a great cut with perfect texture. I had 3 perfectly cooked ribs. They were smokey and the meat fell off the bone. The sides were awesome. The baked beans had a nice smokey flavor. The Mac and cheese was flavorful and had little bits of kielbasa in it and the Coleslaw had great flavor without having too much mayonnaise in it. This is a great place to get some local BBQ and I would highly recommend it if you are in the marysville area.
(4)Dottie B.
Great BBQ....almost as good as my husbands pulled pork sammichs!!!
(5)Lorraine O.
If you have ever had BBQ in Memphis than you will know what I am talking about, if not then go there and you will know! Awesome, excellent, finger licking doesn't describe how tasty this BBQ is. The owner is hands on and always wanting feedback to make it better (not sure how he could do that). Just writing about it makes me hungry. The pulled pork sandwich is plenty full with the right amount of BBQ sauce on the huge portions of pork. I am happy we found this place.
