About us

Wilma's

Founded in 2016 our focus revolves around solving problems with Barbeque. Here at Wilma's, it's all about the meat. Our timely process of selecting fresh, high-grade meats, traditional seasonings, and hickory smoke creates a tender, juicy, boastful flavor in every bite. Each item on our menu has been tweaked to perfection.  We do all this so the people and communities that surround us can enjoy top quality BBQ. Wilma's is always looking to lend a helpful hand. Contact us for any events or fundraiser needs.

"Best Meat in MKE. Ever!”

“Just ate some Wilma’s... Holy Shnikes was it good!!! I have relatives in Texas and have spent a lot of time there eating some delicious bbq. Wilma’s is as good if not better than what we have eaten down there. We had the brisket sandwich, seasoned fries and corn bread muffins. Everything was amazing, even the coleslaw. Thanks Wilma’s for bringing legit bbq to the Cream City. We will find you again for sure.”
