6 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Rockport

“Sure, the BBQ is top notch but don't overlook the coffee, or the sides. Their potato salad is hands down the best I've ever had. No joke. Seriously, go get yourself some. 😄“

“July 4, 2025 at 1:28 pm. Arrived at the “Bar B Que Shack,” 701 Palmetto Avenue, Fulton, Texas 78358. We were seated promptly and our friendly waitress took our order promptly (As usual). Ordered the BBQ 2 Meat Plate (Ribs and Lean Brisket) and 2 Sides that my wife and I shared at $17.85 plus tax for this great plate. Like I said, every time we go we always get seated promptly and served promptly! Dependable place to get great food from Burgers, Fish and BBQ! Highly recommend! GO There!

“The BBQ is fantastic and the sides are fantastic as well. We are here in the Rockport area for a month and I found them by internet search. We went through the drive through to pickup 2 plates that we could eat back at the RV Park. Service was great. The parking lot is a little small if you are dining in, but I highly recommend a visit here if you are a Texas BBQ lover. It's difficult to find good BBQ in coastal towns and this one is really good.“
