Serving Up Downtown Hutch with Flavor That Hits You the Second You Walk In
Since 2017, The Hickory Stik has been serving downtown Hutchinson with flavor that hits you the moment you walk through the door. Family-owned, locally loved, and run by pitmaster Aaron Bruce, this spot is all about big portions, bold flavor, and good times.
Every rack, brisket, and slice of bologna is smoked in-house — because if you’re going to do barbecue, you do it right. Around here, the motto is simple: stay saucy, my friends.
Catering That Brings the Heat
Feeding a crowd? The Hickory Stik makes it easy to keep everyone full and smiling. From small family gatherings to events serving hundreds, they’ll build a spread that fits your crew — and your cravings.
Go classic with slow-smoked meats and homestyle sides or mix it up with fun options like a Potato Bar, Nacho Bar, or the crowd-favorite Mac-and-Meat Pans. Whatever the setup, you bring the people — they’ll bring the flavor.
Family Packs = Dinner Made Easy
No time to cook? The Hickory Stik’s got your back. Choose packs with 4, 8, 12, or 16 sandwiches — each loaded with your choice of smoked meat, buns, sauce, and sides. Perfect for busy nights, tailgates, or those “nobody’s cooking tonight” moments.
Holiday Pre-Orders = Stress-Free Feasts
Don’t risk a dry turkey or a burned ham this holiday season. Let The Hickory Stik handle it. Order smoked pit ham, turkey breast, brisket, or any of their famous meats — sliced, packed in foil pans, and ready to pop in the oven.
No prep, no mess, no waste — just juicy, smoky perfection. You’ll look like a holiday hero (and nobody has to know you didn’t cook it).
Fresh From the Pit Meats
You’ll find all the classics right here: Full size spare ribs, brisket, pulled pork, smoked chicken, turkey breast, pit ham, hot links, smoked sausage, and the fan-favorite smoked bologna.
Every bite’s got that slow-smoked depth that only real hickory wood can deliver.
Specialties You’ll Crave
Let’s talk about those Giant Loaded Potatoes. They’re famous for a reason.
The Mac Attack — Butter, bacon, creamy mac & cheese, and your meat of choice.
The Cincinnati — Smothered in spicy beans, cheese, and sour cream.
Poutine Potatoes or Fries — Topped with gravy, cheese, and smoky meat.
And when the temps drop, warm up with a Hot Open-Face Sandwich: Texas toast piled high with mashed potatoes, gravy, and your pick of smoked meat.
Stackers: Not Your Average Sandwich
These bad boys are a meal and a half:
The Memphis Stacker — Smoked bologna, bacon, smoky beans, cheese, and yep…a rib on top.
The Farmer Stacker — Spicy beans, cheese, red onion, and your choice of meat.
The Hog Stacker — Pulled pork, pit ham, cheese, and tomato.
If your sandwich doesn’t require a nap afterward, did you even eat BBQ?
Sides and More
Smoked beans, spicy beans, potato salad, mac & cheese, coleslaw, fried okra, cheese curds, fries, pork rinds — the list goes on.
For the Kids
Mini BBQ Sandwich, Lil Rib Basket, Mac & Cheese, Mini BBQ Nachos, or Lil Ham & Cheese — all come with a side, drink, and dessert. Because even little pitmasters deserve a good meal.
Cold Beer. Warm Vibes.
Kick back with a cold one on tap and soak up the smokehouse vibes. It’s the perfect spot for a casual date, after-work hangout, or family dinner that ends with everyone full and happy.
