About Taste of Texas Barbecue

Taste of Texas Barbecue offers an exceptional dining experience with its mouthwatering menu. The brisket and beef ribs are praised as competition-ready, with an incredible bark, and the pulled pork sandwich and potato salad also receive high marks. The Ranchero beans and the restaurant's delicious bbq sauce are must-try items. The jalapeño cheddar sausage is really solid, and the brisket is on another level, smoked for 16 hours. This BBQ spot is considered the best within hundreds of miles, with many traveling over an hour to visit. The food is great, but seating can be limited during lunch rush, and some items like pulled pork and potato salad sell out early. While the customer service is good, buying by the pound can get expensive, and plates with entrees and sides would be a welcome addition. Despite traffic noise and windy conditions, the quality keeps people coming back. Recently, the restaurant announced it will be closing at the end of July 2025, as the lease will not be renewed. Customers have expressed sadness over its closure, noting it had the best brisket in the area and was a favorite stop on the road. The line into the small building and the wonderland of barbecue were highly praised, with all items like pulled pork, beef ribs, beef brisket, jalapeño sausage, mac and cheese, and cole slaw receiving great reviews. Service was described as nice and efficient, with shaded tables available outside for eating. However, there are no restrooms on-site. Despite these challenges, the restaurant's quality kept many loyal customers returning for the delicious food.

Wish I lived closer, we’d eat here all the time. Best darn brisket I’ve ever had, I mix it with the Mac n cheese and bbq sauce YUMMY!

I’m very impressed. Hidden gem deserves your support. Family owned and operated. Only BBQ place within 20 miles that I’m aware of and it might put the competition out of business.

If you're looking for the ultimate BBQ experience, look no further than this incredible spot. From the moment you walk in, you'll be transported to a world of smoky, savory goodness that will leave you drooling with anticipation.

But the real star of the show here is the brisket and...read full review
