I was searching for some BBQ ribs since Texas suppose have the best ribs. Went to a couple BBQ places, wasn't s satisfied till I came to Skinny Black BBQ. They nailed it! Best BBQ ribs I taste in San Antonio.

The spot is in a rough looking neighbourhood but the moment we pulled up on the parking on the front a friendly apron wearing man(aka the cook) greeted us, explaining the options we had to order. We ordered the brisket, chicken, ribs and various sides. The brisket was TOP TIER, moist and tender, the chicken juicy and falling off the bone? 10/10, the loaded potatoes were also incredible. Highly recommend the spot but just as a heads up it only has like 2 tables so dining in, although it is an option, is not what the spot is made for. Takeaway, of course, is the way to go (that’s what we did). As for the main man, Jay (the cook) THANK YOU for the delicious food, whenever you visit Greece make sure you text us so that we could link up again?-The Greeks

We came around 9pm today looking for turkey legs. It smelled really good inside and they were very kind so we were excited! But they said they were out of them sadly but- to come back in 45 minutes and they would be ready. So we went out for a bit to kill some time and came back. But when when we came back they said they were closed. :( (which was odd cause on google it said they were open until midnight. It was a Saturday too.) but however- still craving it so we’ll be back to give them another try- until then- they were very nice and the place smelled amazing! Still excited :)

This was the best brisket, potato salad and cabbage I’ve had since we moved to San Antonio. The customer service was amazing and we will definitely be back. Food was so good I forgot to take pics. ?

We were in town for the weekend, first time in SA. Wanted some authentic BBQ. This place is modest looking from the outside, but super friendly and welcoming inside. Had a nice conversation while waiting for a big pile of brisket, sausage, yams and beans. These are good folks serving up great food and smiles. Well worth straying from the Riverwalk area and finding this little gem.
After a long day on the road I googled BBQ and Skinny Black popped up. When I showed up everyone was very welcoming and helped me pick out a great sampler! The brisket was like butter and the ribs were meaty and had nice smoke on them but the potato salad stole the show for me and the mac and cheese was heavenly. My only regret is that I cant remember everyones name so I can thank them personally. Go here it is home cooking from a loving family! What more could you want!Parking: Just a few spots in front but plenty on the street
