Hello Sweetie BBQ

Truly awful. I’ve never included a review that showed me putting the leftovers in my dog’s bowl. I’m so disappointed that people actually consider this good let alone edible. This restaurant claims they started out as a jewelry store and then pivoted to food. Maybe time to pivot again! I didn’t know that was such bad barbecue in a place like Texas. To start it’s not in a great area. The outdoor seating doesn’t have a great view. And the indoor is so small and the music so low that it’s actually awkward to have a conversation. You can tell everyone in the room can hear you. I think they’re actually cooking at two lower temperature. One piece of chicken was clearly undercooked and had the rubbery texture of undercooked chicken. It actually gave me pause to eat it. The pulled pork also had globs of fat And just like the chicken the protein just didn’t feel firm as if it was fully cooked. Ribs also had huge chunks of fat as if they didn’t cook for long enough or hot enough to render out the fat. The sausage was an absolute joke. How do you serve something that’s so obviously overcooked. It’s no exaggeration to say it looks like shoe leather. Maybe worse! I’m a chef and if I cook something that doesn’t taste good I just throw it out. I would never serve failure. The brisket was so dry it could cause dehydration. You could see it visually. Check out the pictures. I thought this was a misdemeanor in Texas. Sides were all forgettable. Corn didn’t have nice bright yellow texture. My daughter didn’t finish the mac and cheese a first! Coleslaw was full of mayo. From time to time I eat somewhere so poor that it actually makes my soul angry. I actually went straight from here to jawai Thai downtown to get some pad Thai to erase the poor flavors of this barbecue. I was upset for the rest of the day as I broke up barbecue smoke smells because I had to keep thinking about this place. I fed $50 of leftovers to the dog. See the pic no exaggeration. Please don’t ever go here. This could be one of the worst barbecue places in the country. I’ll never understand why people open a business to serve a product they’re just not good at making.

The food tasted great, the service was amazing, and the dessert…. Amazing! I would definitely eat here again, and would recommend to those traveling in the area!

The lady who runs this place is AMAZING to say the very least. She is the EPITOME of kindness, hardworking, respectful, and compassionate. Not only is the food absolutely DELICIOUS, but it feels good giving my hard earned money to such a wonderful, and deserving business. This woman and this mouthwatering food, make my entire day every time I come here, and I HIGHLY recommend this experience to everyone.
