How To Order Bill Miller BBQ Plates Like A Regular

1. First-Time Visitor

Get the Regular Plate ($9.45) with brisket, three sides (pinto beans + coleslaw + potato salad), and ask for extra pickles and onions from the condiment bar. That's the most "this is what this place does" order on the entire menu.

2. The Brisket + Sausage Rule

If you're upgrading to the Rancher ($14.15), 90% of regulars pick brisket + sausage. Ribs + brisket is the second-most-popular pairing. Pick the Rodeo ($19.70) if you want all three.

3. Go All-White If You Like Chicken

The all-white BBQ chicken upgrade is $0.70 extra. If you're a breast-only eater, pay it. If you're a dark-meat-or-nothing eater, save the $0.70.

4. By-The-Pound For Takeaway

Brisket by the pound ($20.35/lb) + a loaf of French bread ($4.80) + a pint of pinto beans ($4.45) + a pint of coleslaw ($4.45) = brisket dinner for 2–3 at home for about $34.

5. For The Office Lunch

Skip BBQ plates entirely and order a Large Family Order ($44.65). 1½ lbs BBQ mix, quart sides, 2 loaves of bread, pickles, onions. Feeds 6–8 people. Add a tea bucket for $4.75 and you're done.
