The Greatest BBQ

The Mac was over cooked noodles swollen with shredded cheese sprinkled on top I mean who does that plus I also got pickle slices and onion pieces that a threw away before I took that picture I spent 20 bucks and the brisket was OK but I’ve definitely had way better plus they just poured some sauce on top of it a d served it. To me the cake tasted like sweet corn bread 34 years in business was what I was told they. Have been open i will never go back And I’m still hungry because I had to throw it away

I was blessed enough with Covid they were willing to place my order on my truck. They were kind and courteous. I was disappointed about the online menu prices being very different than the actual prices. Now as a cook I’m particular about giving honest assessments so those that read my reviews gain a healthy perspective before visiting any establishment I review. The food here was for sure not the best. It was generally good but for me average at best for Texas barbecue. The potato salad was the best thing I ordered and some of the best I’ve had. The cornbread should have butter brushed over the top when it comes out the oven so it’s not so dry. The Mac and cheese over cooked, swollen noodles that were just short of paste in consistency. It was my very first time eating Oxtail and for me it was the same as neckbones but with less meat. Oxtail was good just not great. The brisket didn’t fall apart like great brisket should. The cake was decent. For the $$$ spent I was disappointed. Again they were very kind and accommodating and service was great. Just to call yourself the greatest barbecue you need to at least be very good. The Ribs were dry and tough but tasted pretty good. The rice was watery, and the greens were average at best. So overall I’ll not go back because it was way too expensive for $70 plus dollars and nothing stood out except the family loving type atmosphere and friendliness of the people coming out and going into the store. I believe the place could be way better with just a little more love put into the craft of creating the food. I suggest they update the menu prices as well so they don’t offend more people that expect a price about $25-30 less than they spend.

If you are going to use a superlative, make sure that your product is not subpar. I stopped in today with the good word from my mother’s church friend. They got part of my order wrong after waiting for 20 minutes…mind you no one was in front of me. The brisket was bland, the bbq sauce tasted like ketchup, the green beans tasted like they were straight from the can, and as I eat with my eyes first, the mac and cheese was a no go. I got the courage to take a bite, and it was sweet! Who puts sugar in mac and cheese?!!?! A waste of $40. I am now on my way to my go to bbq place to get my dinner. A waste of time…if I could give zero stars, I would.
