Outstanding meats, sides, service. They go out of their way to serve. Moist brisket, ribs, sausage, chicken, perfect smoky and flavor. Melt in our mouths. Sides of potato salad, green beans, charro beans and rice, excellent. We would drive the hour away just to have it again. Husband and son in law both smoke ribs, brisket, etc. regularly and highly praise Pit Stop.

We enjoy this barbecue restaurant. Great brisket sandwiches, poppers are big and brisket filled, the lemonade is REAL, the staff is friendly, they could use more parking, the brisket plate is cut to 1” inch thick , the Spanish rice is the best I have had in Harlingen, TX. The nachos are very good.This place beats the chain bbq places around town. #supportlocal #texaseatsKid-friendliness: It has outdoor seating, picnic style that is under a patio. Decent for an afternoon meal to get outside and share a meal with your little one or fur baby.

I wish I got a picture of the food but man you can smell that smoked goodness from up road! The brisket is rockin and so are the ribs and chicken! I had the rice and beans for sides and a bacon wrapped jalapeño and I was SATISFIED! Everything slaps and the vibe is great! Owners are super cool and the staff is very friendly.

I from Chicago visiting for a few months and i just wanna give Pit Stop a BIG THUMPS UP, because I’ve tasted good brisket from Chicago IL, Arizona, Miami, McAllen TX and a few parts of Georgia, I gotta admit that Pit Stop brisket tastes better than everybody brisket that i mentioned even Chicago’s. The way i recognized Pit Stop’s barbecue is that i ate it while it was cold and it STILL MELTED IN MY MOUNT OMG ??

OMG this is the best BBQ brisket in the area. We visit each year for the Rio Grande Bird Festival and this has always been a MUST lunch stop. Today did not disappoint - they said they are currently under new ownership- so we wondered if our favorite place would change- but they delivered on all levels, excellent food, excellent service, great value. You need to try this place - SO good. 5 stars ? ? ⭐️ ? ?

Good local BBQ in Harlingen. Friendly staff serving tasty food and a few air conditioned seats inside for the hottest days.

Customer service was good but the portion of the chopped brisket sandwich was much smaller than in the past. It's the size of a Junior burger. Won't come here again. 2 sandwich combos for $26 isn't right
Best bbq in Harlingen!! I highly recommend this place and they serve it up hot and fresh!!

Friendly service. Dining room closed, had outdoor picnic tables. Brisket tacos good, very lean, but pit stop tacos hid the brisket flavor.

The food here was garbage. The rice tasted like white rice with food coloring the ribs were cold and full of fat. The beans have probably been there since Monday. I paid $15 for a plate that I had to throw away. Stay away from this place do not waste your time or your money.If I could I would give it 0 stars!

If you ask for a thee meat plate, don't expect to get three meats. You will get what ever adds up to in ounces that they decided is the right amount. The crazy thing they don't advise you of this when ordering. Save your money and go elsewhere.

Horrible experience! The brisket was dry and tasted old. I do not recommend!
