A Taste of Two Traditions: Texas BBQ Meets Louisiana Spice

Walking into this place feels like stepping back in time—where slow-smoked meats and rich, soulful flavors collide. It’s not just a barbecue joint; it’s a fusion of old-time Texas pit mastery and bold Louisiana flair, giving you the best of both worlds under one roof.

From tender brisket that melts in your mouth to Cajun classics that pack a punch, every bite feels like an adventure. The challenge? Trying to fit all those incredible flavors into just one visit. Pro tip: Bring friends and order a little of everything!

The rotating specials keep things fresh, offering unexpected twists on tradition that make every trip exciting. Whether you’re here for the smoky, slow-cooked staples or the spice of the bayou, this spot delivers an experience as rich as its flavors.

Love this place! The owners and staff are always so friendly and nice to visit with. And the food is amazing! Brisket, shrimp and crawfish ettoufe, sweet potato souffle, beans and cornbread, pulled pork sandwiches, bbque meatloaf and the best chicken fried steak. Literally everything is good. I recommend it all!

This restaurant is a true gem for down-home cooking! Every bite was absolutely delicious, and the prices are almost unbelievable—you feel like you’re getting the deal of a lifetime. The brisket was perfectly tender, the ribs were fall-off-the-bone good, and the BBQ overall was top-notch. You have to try the sweet potato souffle; it’s rich, flavorful, and downright unforgettable. The portions are generous, and everything is packed with flavor. Don’t skip the peach cobbler—it’s hands-down the best I’ve ever had. We’re already planning our next trip from Brownwood because this place is worth every mile!

Best BBQ we have had the absolute pleasure of eating!!
The sides & desserts were delicious, the portions were good, the price was even better!
A vast menu, but everything is made so perfectly you’d think each item was a special!
The service is phenomenal; Eva, the owner, is such a warm & friendly woman 🥰 God bless her!
The environment is cozy & for me, very nostalgic! I felt like I was back at my Gram’s house sharing a meal ❤️
If you’re within 100miles of this gem, the trip to Bubba’s Smokehouse BBQ is well worth it! You Won’t be Disappointed!!!

We are from Tennessee and traveling and were looking for some good Texas BBQ and we found Bubba’s in Cross Plains Tx. Let me tell you this place is awesome . The owner is named Eva and she is amazing. She treated me and my girlfriend like we were family. Now on to the food, we got the brisket,ribs and chicken and let me tell you if you are looking for authentic texas bbq this is the place. My girlfriend got the sweet potato soufflé and she loved it. I got potato salad and coleslaw and let me tell you the coleslaw is to die for. I never liked anyone coleslaw but my mother’s but this place is a close 2nd. I would definitely recommend anyone that is in Texas and looking for some great food and wanting to meet some great people this is the place. We will definitely make a trip back here just to talk with Eva and eat some delicious food
