Middle of the road barbecue that's not for the Texas barbecue purists. We regularly, infrequently, come to Spring Creek Barbecue, and will likely continue doing so. The service is energetic, and they keep the large restaurant clean. The bakery employee made regular table visits offering fresh hot rolls, which is a highlight of the meal. Now, about the barbecue. I know about half of you reading this will disagree with my opinion of this barbecue, I get it. Barbecue brings that out in us. But, that's okay....you can be wrong. Ribbing aside, this barbecue isn't custom crafted, top tier barbecue. This is chain restaurant barbecue. So, let's keep the review in its lane. My official review: It's okay for what it is. Let's start with why we keep coming back. IT'S CHEAPISH! Download the app, and take advantage of their promotions, like the buy one get one deal. With enough points collected you'll get further discounts. There's value here. Next, the extras are worthy of consideration. Like, the fresh hot rolls baked right in view of the diners. They will eventually make their way to your table, offered by the baker. They are complimentary, so take full advantage. If you like fried okra, order a basket when you are at the meat cutting station. They'll fry up a batch especially for you. Also, they serve sides the way I wish all of them would do. You get a plate with meat and two sides. To me, that's a meal. I don't want to be forced to order a pint of this, a quart of that. I just want a complete meal; and, you'll get exactly that at Spring Creek. Now about the meats. The brisket and ribs are fine, nothing to get excited about. They have large smokers, and the brisket has a prominent smoke ring. You'll also smell smokey when you leave. Like most barbecue joints, whether you get excellent cuts or if you're served dried shoe leather depends upon lots of variables. This restaurant is inconsistent. So, your experience may vary with each visit. We have consistently found good quality in their smoked chicken and their sausages. The chicken is moist and thoroughly smoked. My family always likes that the sausages aren't too spicy. Consider both of these meats with your order. Regarding the ambiance, I've already mentioned the restaurant is large. It can easily accommodate big group gatherings. I've also mentioned it's smokey. Country western music plays over the speakers, and there's definitely a laid-back Texas vibe going on. It can get a little noisy, but you can still hear folks at your table. Overall, if you're a true barbecue purist, this isn't your kind of barbecue restaurant. For everyone else, you'll think it's fine. Enjoy!

The only issue is that the price of a chopped beef sandwich has doubled! But the food is delicious!

Went at 8pm on a Thursday. Marbled brisket was really juicy but the rest was dried out. Our mac n cheese was cold. The bottled drinks were nice touch, the rolls were amazing and airy, plus they bring fresh ones out. It is a order your food then sut down wherever which is nice. I think we may have just caught them on a off day but I am only visiting town.

I wasn't prepared to like this place but it turned out to be pretty decent after all.We went with some friends from church here and it is a great place for a hungry church crowd. You go through a buffet style liner and pick out what you want. I ordered the Stuffer which was a baked potato loaded with chopped brisket. They definitely loaded it up and it was almost more than I could eat. I enjoyed it and it paired well with some great sweet tea. The brisket probably won't win any awards but it's better than most places like this.I would definitely go back but it's not a place I would put on my foodie list.
