Experience Through Their Eyes

Great barbecue at reasonable pricing. The food is so good you dont even need the bbq sauce. I haven't had brisket that good in a good while. Definitely reccomend.

Extremely friendly owner, and great food! Really darn good sausage, the brisket was rich and moist, and everything else was good as well! The mac may look simple, but it's far better than most other places. There's a drive-thru, but you need to wrap around the shack to get to the entrance. You need to have reasonable expectations about the service time, since it's not fast food after all.

Awesome bar b q. Don't even need the sauce. I always get the brisket and sausage plate with a drink and 2 sides as the Friday special. It's only $13.99! I get the potato salad and coleslaw as my sides and have never been disappointed with my meal or service. Be aware that it is small inside if you want to eat inside all the tables could be occupied. They also have a drive through and home made desserts that are the bomb!

Happened upon this BBQ spot when I googled for food near me in Manor. While standing in a short line to order, I saw plates of BBQ going by. The generous portions of meat and sides that looked great! I wasn't too hungry so I ordered the Sliced Brisket Sandwich. It was stacked with lean smoked beef. The lean brisket was slightly dry but the homemade sauce made up for it. I will try a plate next time

You come here for the best Texas bbq to take home. Though my first visit was for a brisket sandwich which turned out so juicy, tasty and tender, I had to return the following week when we had friends in town. Fatty brisket, the best I've had in town so far. Beef rib, very good. Mac and cheese, absolutely the best ever. Potato salad excellent. Green beans very good. If you are the North east park of town, Hutto, give this place a try. You won't be disappointed. Update. We stopped on the way back and had a great dinner again. Love the brisket, with raw onion and bread.

Don't judge a book by its cover. Driving up to the building I figured this would be "Just Another BBQ Shop", but once I entered the decorative theme was interesting, and unique. It was very clean, small but adequate enough for a dozen or so customers to dine in. Got my order to dine in of Pork Steak, Mash potatoes with gravy, Mac n cheese and a couple slices of brisket. First the brisket, seasoned and smoked just right. It was juicy, tender, delicious, had a perfect smoke ring, with just the right amount of seasoning. It practically melted in my mouth. It's the best true Texan brisket I've had. The pork steak was amazing also. The fresh ground peppercorn along with other spices gave it a little zing. The pork steak also had a nice smoke ring, cooked to a perfection, not undercooked or overcooked, but tender enough to cut with a fork if you wanted to. The Mac and cheese was also delicious, I like how it was cooked fresh and to a nice creamy consistency. The elbow noodles were also perfectly, they still held their shape not over cooked and soggy. Now finally the mash potatoes. They are homemade mash potatoes, not instant or powdered. Great consistency flavoring. Overall I have to give this 10 out of 10, 2 thumbs up. I definitely will be eating here again and I would recommend this to anyone who wants true southern Texas BBQ!
