About Killen's BBQ

Killen's BBQ is a must-visit for any BBQ lover and a strong contender for Texas's best. The brisket is a standout, with melt-in-your-mouth tenderness and rich flavor. The homemade jalapeño cheese sausage is a must-try, as are the potato salad and coleslaw sides, which have just the right amount of spice and vinegar. The beef ribs here are a must-try, and the prime rib and BBQ brisket baked potato are also worth trying. Customers have praised the meats and sides, describing them as both delicious and satisfying. The restaurant was noted to be clean and quiet enough for conversation, making it a great place for gatherings. While the menu does not include a condiment bar, staff are friendly and willing to provide extras like peppers, onions, and pickles if asked. The service is quick, and the staff are very nice, often providing the best cuts when asked nicely. The only downside is that some menu items may sell out quickly, so arriving early is recommended. Overall, Killen's BBQ is a top-tier BBQ destination that should not be missed, offering gluten-free options for those who inquire. Parking is available, and the restaurant is kid-friendly with high chairs and changing stations. There is also wheelchair accessibility with a ramp and handrails in the restrooms. The restaurant can get very busy, especially close to opening hours, and outdoor covered seating is available if inside is crowded.

For gluten-free peeps: Service was quick and food was good. I am gluten-free and I felt safe eating BBQ and coleslaw. It was my fault I should have asked if the coleslaw was gluten-free but I never in my life would expect ramen noodles in my coleslaw. So if you are gluten-free make sure to ask or let them know.

Best BBQ!! Never disappoints. Ever since The Woodlands location opened I have been going to Killen’s. Being a Texas native and loving BBQ this is my go to for satisfying my craving. ALL the sides are excellent.

Killen’s Pearland location is fantastic. However I want to focus my comments on the Woodlands location which is nearest to me. That location needs an intervention. Here’s my review of it:

I really wanted to give this location a chance because the drive to the original location in Pearland is so far. Sadly, the last three visits have been disappointing. This time around we asked for their best offering and were told beef ribs. We got two of them. The first bite, with...read full review
