My husband and I were just driving through Texas and stopped here to grab lunch and I am so glad we did! We were greeted with a warm, friendly smile from the sweet lady working the register. I wish I would have gotten her name. We ordered the brisket, ribs, baked beans, and the green beans. I have had a lot of bbq in my day and have been told by many that my bbq is the best, but this place was the best!! The ribs were fall off the bone, but I couldn’t resist to suck the bone anyway! The brisket was juicy and tender. The seasoning was perfect, the smoke was perfect, not too overpowering. Lucky me even got to meet chef and tell him how great his bbq was. I told him that the green beans were awesome and he said that he couldn’t take credit for those because that was his grandma’s recipe. I wanted to share my review and hope that anyone who is thinking about trying this place out, will definitely go!

What a great experience, we weren’t from the area just visiting and we are so glad we stopped. Upon arriving we were greeted with the most pleasant young lady who was very respectful. We ordered our food, sat down and enjoyed a conversation with one of the locals. We received our food, the chopped beef sandwich and the three meat potato both were pretty amazing, the flavor was spot on. We also ordered the peach cobbler, it was a bit loose but the flavor was amazing it wasn’t super sweet but sweet enough. The owners were welcoming and kind. Keep doing what you’re doing! I would recommend this place.

I am new to the area and very pleasantly surprised by DQ’s BBQ! Not only is the food absolutely wonderful and plentiful but the staff is always so welcoming and treat you like part of the family! I always look forward to going in and enjoying some great BBQ and friendly conversation! I am very picky with food and I can honestly say I have enjoyed everything I’ve tried here. The bbq beans and Mac and Cheese are on point! The chopped brisket is my go to but the ribs are fall off the bone good and the links are good too! My family highly recommends you try it, it will not disappoint!

Damn good BBQ! I almost didn't stop because the place looked so mid, but I took a chance, and this place really was definitely a diamond in the rough. The BBQ.... I will stop here every time from now on.

This place was a gem! Great food- brisket was a labor of love and so juicy and tender you could shred it with a spoon! Mac and cheese was amazing, sweet tea was SWEET! The owner works day and night smoking and grilling the meats and everyone was family. Sundays are soul food sunday with meals like oxtail, stews, greens and are sold out most times. And the true winner was the women's bathroom- messages of love and positivity everywhere. They won me over for sure! Worth the 3 hour drive!
Kid-friendliness: They are so sweet to everyone- asking about school, keeping them engaged- you can tell they care about their community❤️

Stopped at DQ's while travelling through sort of on a whim. Definitely a small town, locally owned sort of vibe but excellent barbecue! We had the brisket and chicken with beans and potato salad. All was good but the brisket was by far my favorite item, it was cooked perfectly and the fat was just buttery, exactly as a brisket should be. I've been let down many times before by different "texas" BBQ joints, but not here. Would definitely recommend.

We were passing through this town on the way back home. Couldn’t have picked a better place. Everyone there, including the customers were so nice and personable. Great service! Food was delicious, seasoned perfectly and tender, mac n cheese was so good! We tried all the meats, brisket was my favorite but the links didn’t disappoint and a favorite. We’ll definitely come back.
Kid-friendliness: Customer service was great, I appreciate when staff engages the entire family.

Pretty good food. It's just missing something. I can't put my finger on it. Maybe a little smoked flavor or spices

We were traveling through this town and glad we stopped after looking at their social media. We tried all the meats and they didn’t disappoint. Brisket and links were my favorite, mac n cheese was our favorite side but all were great. Customer service was amazing. Great restaurant and great service!
