50 Best Barbeque Restaurants near China Grove

“I had seen videos on Facebook and wanted to try this place out. Our first time here and the bbq was awesome! My wife and I got the all you can eat to try a little of everything. To start off with you get to choose 3 meats and 3 sides, we got brisket, ribs, regular sausage, jalapeño sausage and turkey. The brisket was falling apart the ribs were perfectly seasoned and delicious (my favorite ) both the regular and jalapeño sausage was good and my wife loved the turkey. The sides we chose were potato salad, green beans, creamed corn and beans, all the sides were just as good as the bbq!“

“There's a lot of BBQ in Texas to choose from. I personally can't find better food and atmosphere than Reese Bros. Do yourself a huge favor and try it. The food is as good as I've ever had but their customer service absolutely sets them apart from everyone else!“

“Amazing food. So glad we tried it.“

“The good: Brisket and ribs were very tender potatoe salad was good green beans were good The Bad: No inside seating, both brisket and ribs were a little dry and could of used a little more seasoning. food might of been kept warm for a bit, the reason maybe why it was a little dry.“

“I wish I could give this place 10 STARS!! We found this smokehouse on Google after reading an article mentioning Michelin Guide and top 50 in Texas. We made the trip, arrived just after open at 11am and there was already a line - impressive! The food was OUTSTANDING! Come prepared to want to try everything on the menu and give them all of your hard earned dollars. We spent $140 for two people because we're from Michigan and there's nothin' like this at home, but it was worth every.single.penny! We sat outside at the adorable little picnic tables, the brisket and Texas Rib was our favorite and the housemade bbq sauce went on everything we ate! Everything was amazing!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The ribs where the best I’ve had in a long time. I also had rice, beans and Mac and cheese with jalapeño no question it was a hit. I will definitely go back again.“

“Always passed this spot we stopped to try and me and husband loved it will definitely be our new spot for bbq“

“We found Pepe’s on our way through San Antonio. What a find! Amazing barbacoa and tamales and the nicest service. My kids are already asking when we will return.“

“Absolutely everything is so good!!! Highly suggest you get you some!! 😋“

“At the corner of Hwy 181 and SE 1604 in Floresville TX sits a little shack looking like something out of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, that boasts having The Best Barbacoa in The World. We pass it twice a day and have often laughed about it. Shame on me for violating my own premise that the best food comes from the most unassuming dive joints. We finally tried it and Holy Smokin' beef cheeks, Batman. The service is good and the people friendly. The barbacoa is super tender, flavorful and moist, without being greasy. It comes with whole avocados, pico de gallo, your choice of flour or corn tortillas. If you order flour you're doing it wrong. You can optionally get it with the requisite beverage, Big Red. If you order any other drink, you lose your Texican card. It doesn't matter if you hate Big Red as I do. Go Big Red or go home. It has all the ambience of being broken down in your car on the side of a busy highway intersection, which of course is exactly the ambience it should have. They also have tamales and menudo, but online reviews suggest Larry should stick to what he does best--The World's Best Barbacoa--and leave it at that. oh...they only take cash, so leave your credit cards at home, and mindya bizness about if he reports all of it to Uncle Sam. 5 out of 5 stars 🌟“

“well there was no highlight. the food was all leftovers and it was cold. not impressed at all.“

“My brother travels nearly an hour just to get barbacoa and tamales from here. My cousin travels 30 mins. My best friend nearly 30 mins. My mom passes at least 3 other places to take the 20 min drive. Everyone LOVES this place. Always the same good food. You will NOT be disappointed.“

“First time here today & definitely will be going again it’s a small place but they made room for me & my family to sit down & enjoy the food truly amazing people !!! If your looking for great bbq this is the place god bless y’all“

“Been coming here for decades! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Vacationing and saw this place on Google near where we were staying, had my heart set to get some the next morning. Wasn't hard to navigate there and back. Everything pictured plus a 2 liter of Big Red was $38 something, what a freaking steal! Where we're from this easily could have costed me $50-$60. Barbacoa was all meat, hardly any grease, tasted phenomenal. Came with corn tortillas which had a good toast and taste. The tamales were pork and tasted amazing (no ketchup needed). Will definitely be going back when we're back in town! Staff was friendly and kind. It's a place you grab and go, no sitting which is fine by us.“

“The food was amazing. In my opinion it’s the best Korean bbq in San Antonio. Our waitress was very nice and kept coming back to check on us. The owner came to our table and was very nice and helpful. The pickled radishes, kimchi and the kimchi pickles sides are my favorite. (We even bought a jar of kimchi to take with us). The beef bulgogi which we got spicy and the galbi were perfect. The flavor was 100% and was cooked to perfection. 10/10 would definitely recommend.“

“Great food highly recommend“

“Greeted by staff upon entering. Food was really good, burger patty was flavorful & fried pickles were amazing.😋👌🏻 Will definitely be coming back.“

“Texas Pride Barbeque made our company luncheon absolutely phenomenal! I ordered catering for 45 people, and everything was perfect from start to finish. There was more than enough food, and the portions were large and satisfying. They provided everything needed to serve lunch, which made the process so easy. The flavor of the food was incredible, and even with delivery, everything arrived fresh and hot! Our luncheon was a huge success, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. I highly recommend Texas Pride Barbeque for any event, they truly go above and beyond. Thank you! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Good portions. Brisket was simple and tasty. All you taste is beefy scrumptiousness. A full sausage link that has some spice to it and yummy. Mustard potato salad just like grandma used to make. 👍👍👍👍“

“We came in from out of town. Our family recommended us to go eat there! It was our first time eating Korean BBQ! We loved it!!!! Our children liked the shrimp tempura, shrimp friend rice and ramen. Make sure you order just the regular broth with the ramen 🍜 if it’s for your kids. If not it’s a bit spicy if you don’t. It’s very temp hot too. Ethan are server was pleasant and attentive. Great for birthdays too! I love how they sing to you and play the happy birthday song with glow sicks! Love of delicious sides come with the meal. We really enjoyed ourselves! Big family size portions! It’s really cool how you get to cook your meats! Definitely will be coming back! Very family friendly! God Bless!“

“I got the 3 meat and 2 side order that came out to a little over 20 dollars. I'm so used to the serving sizes other barbecue places give for that amount, that I was astonished at the amount of sausage and brisket I was given. Meat and vegetables were cooked to perfection and I can't recommend them enough.“

“Came by the restaurant tonight, staff was very attentive and friendly. Lobby was clean and bright. Everything was good until MY FOOD came to the table. It looked a little off. I still ate the chicken. I found some blood in 1 piece of chicken. I was hungry so I ate. The manager came by and checked my chicken. She suggested I receive some new chicken; the chicken i had was ok, but the manager gave me 2 new pieces of chicken. They looked way better. ( so, thank you to the night shift manager 'white female ')😀 now that's what I call customer service...👍🫠“

“Worked here as a teenager, love coming back for bill millers amazing food when I’m in town. Best brownies and chicken strips“

“Love bill millers, I leave in colorado And every time I come to San Antonio Tx , have to have bill millers 😊is so good 😊“

“So if you haven’t eaten at bill millers then theres only 1 way and that’s you just arrived from somewhere else. Because you can’t go wrong at any of the locations in San Antonio Texas. Their bbq brisket is really good. But there chicken is off the charts. And there sweet tea, and pies. Everything there is the bomb. Prices are average and food is awesome.“

“They always have good soul food.. fried chicken, barbecue, oxtails, and cornbread cabbage... pig feet, sausage, pinto beans ,rice and candy yams, potato salad, ? ? every time I order the food I forget about pictures I eat the food up so fast ?❤️? “

“I just want to thank my local Bill Millers for having everything extremely organized the day before Thanksgiving!
As someone who was in a rush to pick up my holiday order & thought Id have to wait... yal proved me wrong. I was in and out. everyone was smiling/welcoming and i got my order in less that 5 minutes. I appreciate the quickness & great customer service on Bill Millers most busiest day ❤️“

“After I received my food, I realized I wanted dark meat, and there was a team leader named Beatrice standing next to me and She made sure that I was getting what I wanted. (I believe she was going home for the day and took the time to help me out) Now that is what service is about? Thank you Beatrice!!“
