“Got the 2 meat plate... Brisket & Ribs, mac and okra.
Loved everything except the
mac. It wasnt good and the regular Pepsi i think they had diet mixed up.

I'll be back for the proteins definitely.

Service was ok. Not really impressionable.“

“Today was my first day of getting to go and try the food. I’ve been wanting to visit for quite some time so my husband and I went on a lunch date. We got the tacos, the loaded potato, the elotes, and the jalapeño poppers. Everything on the menu looked amazing so we had to try a little bit of each. Next time I will be getting the sandwich because the tacos were really dry. Everything else was amazing. Bad choice for my first time eating there, as I passed everyone having a sandwich I wished I would’ve ordered one cause they really looked good. I can’t wait to go back and try something new and the bread pudding. I will stick to the meat and sides. It’s a no for me on the brisket tacos.“

“Stopping for lunch at the Patriotic Pig for some delicious pulled pork, loaded mashed potatoes, fresh green beans with bacon, onion, and garlic... Oh my oh my! Best ever! Their photos don't lie!“

“While passing through, I stopped in today for the first time and I'm very pleased with my rib sandwich. The meat came right off the bone. My sandwich had 3 full ribs with the rib tips. The meat was well seasoned and tender. Their ribs is on point! Highly recommend.“

The chopped sandwich and candy yams are the best i've ever had. Had the best fritopie today!! Huge. Great desserts. Can nit brag enough about these guys.“

Don’t forget about the boom boom candy - a small slice of heaven….I could go on and on.

And did I mention you can get a free drink! I don’t mean kool aid (which they also have) I mean a DRANK.“

“I have eaten and shared my love of BBQ for years traveling the United States in my job, and living for a time in South Texas enjoying the outstanding Tex Mex cuisine of mesquite wood burning smoked brisket, pulled pork, ribs, chicken, turkey, etc. JR's is a wonderful experience if you are looking for outstanding BBQ, family outing, very professional, friendly staff, with a wide selection of menu options that are simply delicious! I have tried the brisket, pulled pork, chicken, turkey, ribs, mac and cheese, other side dishes, and soups. I have never been disappointed. JR is one of the friendliest, generous, and community- oriented individuals you would ever meet. I have had the opportunity to see his operation from the fire pits in the back, kitchen, and have always been highly impressed with the cleanliness of his facility. That speaks volumes to the importance of not just quality taste, flavor blending of smoke wood meats, but to the importance of food safety. I would highly recommend stopping by and trying the food for yourself as the flavor of mesquite smoked meat is tantalizing to the taste buds, the atmosphere is very friendly/inviting, and the service the best! Suffice it to say that JR and his staff go out of their way to make sure your dining experience is memorable, and enjoyable! P.S. ask JR to let you see the fire pits in the back so you can see where the outstanding BBQ is made. JR is very approachable.“

“Best Brisket I have ever had! And the sides are amazing too! Not your traditional sides, which makes it even more attractive. See you guys Saturday for the lamb ribs.“

“WOW! In town for business and we found this gem. The sides alone are worth the visit- the tater tot casserole and baked beans were outstanding. The pulled pork was incredible and brisket too, topped off by homemade pickles and pickled red onions- yummm! The staff was very friendly, fast service and the owner even stopped by to check on us. A highlight of our trip for sure!“

“10/10 this place is amazing! The loaded baked potato and Coca Cola cake was the best I’ve ever had! Highly recommend them!“

“My family and I love everything we’ve ever had at Red’s. We just recently used them to cater the Boswell Drumline banquet. Yet again, as expected, it was amazing! Great customer service, great food, and very affordable! Will definitely hire them again!“

“It's a very low key place. Well worn, but in the best way. They know bbq .
Had the chopped beef sandwich and fries. They were super delicious.
They didn't put a bunch bbq sauce on the sandwich to my dismay but then it really doesn't need a bunch as the meat said it all
Really enjoyed the fountain drinks
As they are old time original .
The fries were way past fantastic.
We will return this bbq restaurant again.
Great job Woody creek bbq staff.
We felt and tasted the love and passion yall have for bbq“

“Great atmosphere friendly staff“

“We just celebrated our granddaughter’s 27th birthday with a delicious dinner from Heim Barbecue. We ordered the brisket, pulled pork and burnt ends. Our sides were mac and cheese, pinto beans and twice baked potato salad. All of our guests loved the food and enjoyed the evening. Thanks Heim Barbecue. Great job!!“

“My wife and I have been here a few times but have not written a review until now. Regarding some good slow smoked ribs, I love this place. My wife gets the pulled pork. The reason we keep coming back is because this is a great place with great dishes to satisfy both of our pickiness regarding food. The big extra bonus that the staff bring regularly to your table are the dinner rolls, that are baked fresh on site in ovens you can visually see while eating. They are off the chain, like no other I have ever tasted. This Spring Creek Barbeque is located walking distance from the Tarrant County Clerk's Office, the Lake Worth Municipal Court, T-Mobile. Be warned, this place can become addictive.“

“Visited while I was at a conference in Fort Worth. Amazing BBQ and sides! Their coleslaw is absolutely my favorite in Texas! I also had the smoked mac and cheese and their chicken it was absolutely delicious! If you have a chance to visit I highly recommend them“

“I recently visited Sammie's BBQ, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. **Atmosphere:** The moment you walk in, you’re greeted by a warm, rustic ambiance that perfectly complements the BBQ theme. The decor features a charming mix of wood and metal, giving it a cozy yet modern feel. The place was bustling with activity, but the seating arrangement ensures that you have enough space to enjoy your meal comfortably. **Service:** The service at Sammie's is top-notch. The waitstaff are not only incredibly attractive but also friendly and attentive. They make you feel welcome and are always ready to help with recommendations or to refill your drinks. Their professionalism and cheerful demeanor truly enhance the dining experience. **Food:** Now, onto the most important part – the food. Sammie's BBQ offers a wide range of smoked meats and traditional sides, all prepared to perfection. I tried the brisket and ribs, both of which were tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. The smoky aroma and the perfectly balanced seasoning made each bite a delight. The sides, including the creamy coleslaw and the savory baked beans, were the perfect accompaniment to the main dishes. Don't miss out on their homemade BBQ sauce – it's a game-changer. **Drinks:** The coldest beer in town **Value:** Considering the quality of the food, the exceptional service, and the overall dining experience, Sammie's BBQ offers great value for money. The portion sizes are generous, and you definitely get your money's worth. **Overall:** Sammie's BBQ is a standout in the world of barbecue restaurants. Whether you're a BBQ aficionado or just looking for a great meal in a lively setting, this place won't disappoint. I highly recommend giving it a visit – you won’t regret it! ★★★★★“

“I wanted to comment on what good portion sizes they have here. I've eaten here several times and have thoroughly enjoyed my food I also think they have a very good work ethic because the owner answers the phone on occasion.“

“Omg these ribs are falling off the bone. And these green beans yesss I give this meal a 10. I will be back next Thursday.“

“Good food. I had the 2 meat which comes with 3 sides. I got the Sausage and Brisket and ordered fries, fried artichoke, and potatoe salad. Comes with toast. I wasn't a fan of the potato salad, each person likes it a different way, but the fries and artichoke was great. Brisket was awesome. Sausage wasn't bad. Ordered a drink as well. Cost was under $25 including tax & tip.

Lots of antiques to look at and talk about. Very unique pieces.“

“Some of the best BBQ in Ft. Worth. Not a really big place but they've been around for years. There aren't many people you can talk to in Ft. Worth who don't know about Lloyd's cafe. It's almost a historical movie to the local residents. Laid back atmosphere and they boast "the coldest beer in Ft. Worth." The ribs(meat falling off the bone and so flavorful) and bolo are my personal favorites! And the weekend is probably the best time to visit.“

“I rate it 10 out of 5 because its twice as good as I could explain it to you! You just have to try it yourself to understand what I m talking about. And shes one who knows Christ, proves it with Scriptures she has wrote about the place. Alot of ppl today wont openly claim that they follow Christ because chance it might offend someone ,not her and for that I give her another 10! You go Mama E, you have a new life customer.“

“I love this place. Texas is usually wet bbq, but they make dry rub ribs here that are amazing. We had brisket (sliced and a chopped sandwich), ribs, hot links, and 1 of every side. Everything here is great. Best little dive bbq joint in Texas.“

“I bought a turkey leg and a brisket plate. it was the best I have ever had.. Definitely going back again. you won't regret. brisket was so tender. and the cook was very sweet!“

“I ordered the Texas Combo with fried okra and a side salad — and oh my heavens, what a treat! When I saw the pulled pork came with “Carolina-Style BBQ Sauce,” this Carolina girl was skeptical… but y’all, they absolutely nailed it! 🤩
That tangy mustard-vinegar sauce could hold its own against the best pitmasters in South Carolina — it was that good! The fried okra was golden, crispy perfection, and the side salad was fresh and flavorful.
But what really made the meal unforgettable was Jenni, our server. She was an absolute rockstar — warm, friendly, and genuinely seemed to enjoy making sure everyone was happy. I watched her juggling several tables at once, and she never missed a beat! Drinks stayed full, food came out right on time, and she still managed to check in with a smile and make us feel like we were her top priority. That kind of service is rare these days, and she deserves every bit of praise she gets. 🌟
My only complaint? I didn’t save room for the banana pudding — and trust me, I’m still kicking myself for that one!“

“Always great service. The servers here are really on point. The know it's lunch and you don't have a lot of time so they hurt to get you in and out but not in a bad way. Their sandwiches are great too. Atmosphere is just what you want in a bbq place.“

“For starters...the food is excellent and the staff is friendly. The location is ideal and the outdoor atmosphere is very family (and pet) friendly. I also like that they brought back LIVE music. It's definitely a place you want to check out. 👍“

“Not quite enough food to fill me up, I'd strongly recommend asking for/about the loaded fries (not on the menu but they get the request enough to know what you mean when you ask)

Wheelchair accessibility: There's a ramp to get in“
