If you're searching for some of the best barbecue in Texas, look no further. This place lives up to its Texas Monthly Top 50 award, and it's easy to see why. We visited on a Tuesday right when it opened, and it was already filling up with happy patrons. The ample parking and friendly staff made for a great start to the meal.
The Meats
The brisket had a delicious salt and pepper bark with a nice crust. While it could have been a bit more moist, the rich, smoky flavor was on point and a great representation of a classic Texas brisket.
The ribs were a definite standout. They had a beautiful, deep smoke ring and came clean off the bone with a perfect pull, not just falling apart. The dry rub bark was fantastic, allowing the natural smoky flavor of the meat to shine.
Both of the sausages were excellent. The house sausage was juicy with a satisfying snap to the casing and a nice peppery kick. The boudin sausage packed a great spicy flavor without being overly filled, which can often make boudin greasy.
The Sides & Appetizers
We also tried a couple of the unique sides and appetizers. The jalapeño poppers were a pleasant surprise. I usually prefer a protein filling, but the cream cheese had a wonderfully flavorful and creamy texture that won me over. The jalapeño crème corn was another highlight—incredibly creamy with a tangy, spicy kick from the pickled jalapeños mixed throughout.
Overall, this barbecue joint is a must-visit. The quality of the meat and the delicious sides truly set it apart.

The staff was very friendly and professional, great service. The atmosphere is great too with nice seating outside. We personally didn’t find the food itself to be great, especially the brisket that was average. Still a good place to go with friends and family.

The brisket is amazing and the Pig Apple Sandwich was delicious too!
I am sadly disappointed by this place. It looks a lot better than it actually tasted. There was almost flavor and the famous bbq sauce didn't taste like bbq sauce at all. Just super tangy and salty. It's an amazing portion for the price, but it is just not worth it due to the taste and I hate to say that. The girl who took my order was so sweet as well and it was a nice environment inside. Maybe ill have to try again.
