Pinkerton's Barbecue Reviews
Craving some smoky goodness? Pinkerton's delivers on the brisket, offering decent cuts that tantalize the taste buds. However, the sausage fell flat, lacking that burst of savory spice we all crave. While the mac and cheese provided some cheesy comfort, the overall experience left us wanting a bit more flavor punch. It's a solid 6 out of 10, good for a casual BBQ fix but not quite the pitmaster's paradise we were hoping for.

Pinkerton's Barbecue is an outstanding BBQ spot in Houston that delivers authentic flavors with plenty of charm and character. The brisket is the highlight here—tender, juicy, and seasoned to perfection, melting in your mouth. The sausage truly stands out, but it can be dry. The menu features incredible smoked meats, including real Texan pork ribs that are a good size and tasty, paired with tasty sides. The brisket, ribs, and pulled pork are fan favorites, and the brisket Mac n cheese is a must-try. With a lively atmosphere and great service that is fast and friendly, this spot is a go-to for delicious barbecue. Customers note that there is a line outside the door that can go around the corner, but the waiting time was worth it. Be prepared to wait, as the line can grow long, especially when it opens at 11:00am.
