At the corner of Hwy 181 and SE 1604 in Floresville TX sits a little shack looking like something out of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, that boasts having The Best Barbacoa in The World. We pass it twice a day and have often laughed about it. Shame on me for violating my own premise that the best food comes from the most unassuming dive joints. We finally tried it and Holy Smokin' beef cheeks, Batman. The service is good and the people friendly. The barbacoa is super tender, flavorful and moist, without being greasy. It comes with whole avocados, pico de gallo, your choice of flour or corn tortillas. If you order flour you're doing it wrong. You can optionally get it with the requisite beverage, Big Red. If you order any other drink, you lose your Texican card. It doesn't matter if you hate Big Red as I do. Go Big Red or go home. It has all the ambience of being broken down in your car on the side of a busy highway intersection, which of course is exactly the ambience it should have. They also have tamales and menudo, but online reviews suggest Larry should stick to what he does best--The World's Best Barbacoa--and leave it at that. oh...they only take cash, so leave your credit cards at home, and mindya bizness about if he reports all of it to Uncle Sam. 5 out of 5 stars 🌟

Seriously was some of the best tasting barbacoa I've ever had. The place is a run down shack out in the sticks. Worth the drive, worth heating the tortillas when you get home. I got a pound of meat, a pack of flour tortillas, 2 salsas and 1 avocado. Delicious.
Cash only. I'm sure they don't want to pay credit card fees and I don't blame them. The kids working there are all in school and sports, so make sure you TIP them so they can achieve their current goals in life.

Parking: It's besides an ice machine, gravel lot to park in. Maybe 5 or 6 spaces. You're in and out rather quickly, so not a big deal.

There’s no doubt it some of the best Barbacoa around, but in this day and age, there’s no reason for them not to accept credit cards
