Awesome food... NO BEER because it is a dry county, which I thought disappeared decades ago. You can bring your own bevy in, but check first

OMG! I tried something different. The Bahn Mi brisket sandwich was off the chart! Their brisket blows away any competition but get this sandwich and the pickled veggies cut through the richness of the perfectly smoke brisket. And what? That bread!!! I had trouble with my card and Phil, the owner was so patient and kind. Fav bbq place ever and I have tried a lot! Beautiful new establishment and they did it right. Awesome!!!

This is absolutely some of the best BBQ I have ever had! The Brisket Smashburger was delicious and the pork steak my husband had was equally delicious! Hopefully we can get back again before we leave the area.

What a great experience! The place is well laid out and immaculately clean. The staff were very friendly and the food (brisket and slaw) were absolutely top tier!

Brisket was good. Ribs were good. The sides is what I wasn't happy with. I'm more into traditional sides when it comes to BBQ.

Helberg bbq knows what they’re doing! It’s one of the top bbq spots in Texas (and we’ve been to most of them) and definitely the best in Waco! The owners are so sweet and work so hard and I love how they have leaned on the Lord to get through the hard times! They handed out beautiful flowers to all the Moms on Mothers Day 🌺

Best Barbecue around. Way better than Terry Black’s. Better food, better variety, better service, better atmosphere! Great family place with the best barbecue in Texas!!!

We came down from Dallas to try Helbergs and let me tell you I’ll be back every chance I have a hankering for some good bbq. Spoke with Philip the pit master and really great guy and very reasonable prices! Would definitely recommend!

Great come back, loving the new place. Bucket List Guy; why haven’t you been here yet.

One of the best BBQ places that I’ve been to in a long time. It is a must stop from anywhere close. If you are into Texas BBQ expeditions, you must add this one to your list.

Not only is the selection of meats smoked and prepaid to perfection. They keep you on the edge of your seat to see what they have that is out of the norm. The side are like no other in the Texas scene of BBQ, they stand alone. That truly stand alone by standing out from the others. Great job!

A Must-Stop BBQ Gem on Highway 6 near Waco!

While on a long road trip, I stumbled upon this hidden gem thanks to a bold BBQ sign that made me pull a quick U-turn—and I’m so glad I did! As a Texan, I’ve had my fair share of barbecue, but this place truly stands out.

The food is phenomenal—perfectly smoked meats, flavorful sides, and even the dessert was unforgettable. You can taste the care and craftsmanship in every bite. The quality is top-tier, and the customer service is just as impressive: warm, welcoming, and fast.

Whether you're a local or just passing through the Waco area, do yourself a favor and stop here. This spot deserves to be on every BBQ lover’s map!
