Can't go wrong here. Absolutely fantastic and consistent brisket and sides. Especially like the brussels sprouts and pimento Mac and cheese.

Feges BBQ is a must! ðŸ”¥ We had the brisket, housemade sausage, pulled pork, mac and cheese, bread pudding, and carrot cake—everything was cooked to perfection!! The brisket was melt-in-your-mouth tender with a deep smoky flavor, the sausage had a satisfying snap when you bit into it, giving way to juicy, flavorful filling, and the pulled pork was juicy and packed with flavor. The mac and cheese was rich, creamy, and the ultimate comfort food. The bread pudding and carrot cake were a great way to finish off the meal—simple, tasty, and just the right sweetness. Huge portions, super friendly service—we're definitely coming back!

Hey! Prob the best bbq I've tasted in Houston. Brisket was seasoned well and moist and tender. Ribs were a little sweet for me but seasoned well and cooked perfectly. The restaurant was an adventure to get too and found out that it wasn't the original place. It's this good at the second store!?!?

It's fantastic, from the food to the friendly service that you receive. Brisket- mouth watering Turkey- the best Hot beef links- hot Mild beef links- wild Pork ribs- just right Chili- FIRE Half Chicken- delectable Pork burnt ends- juicy Sides- there isn't a wrong choice Desserts- tell your dietitian if you have the cake or bread pudding they'll understand. My biggest tip is to get here before the rush because their food will be gone.

I recently experienced absolutely stunningly-delicious craft barbecue in one of the most unlikely places you might think of - at a corporate building food court in Greenway Plaza near downtown Houston. Yes, you read that right - a food court. Feges BBQ (it's pronounced almost like you would say the plural of the word Fiji — "fee - jis") is that place - and man is it awesome!! They have been open for right around two years now. It was started by Patrick Feges and his wife, Erin Smith. Erin is classically-trained chef, who has held key posts at some pretty amazing restaurants in NYC and Houston. She has also been the winning chef on Chopped, the popular show on the Food Network. Patrick has been smoking meat professionally since 2012, and has received training at some pretty amazing Houston-area barbecue spots before they opened their Greenway Plaza restaurant. When I say their barbecue is amazing, I am not alone. Just last year Feges BBQ was named one of Texas Monthly Magazine's Top 25 New Barbecue Joints in Texas. They have just incredible smoked meat. There are too many choices honestly. I wanted to try the whole hog (yes, as in what they do in the Carolinas and Tennessee), pork belly, pulled pork, turkey and their boudin. But I knew that I had limited space in my stomach. And since this was my first visit, I went with the Texas Trinity of brisket, pork ribs and sausage.-- Brisket - I love the point end of the brisket, so went with some slices of fatty. And I tell ya, that brisket was stunning, It was very moist, lucious, and melt-in-your-mouth, with a great bark and fantastic flavor. -- Pork ribs - The pork ribs were a St. Louis cut, with an outstanding bark, a great chewy exterior, and the meat was moist and flavorful. -- Sausage - The sausage was exceptional. It had a firmly-packed filling with a reasonably-fine grind and great flavor. And it was smoked beautifully, with a good snap to the casing and not too chewy or shriveled up.What I wasn't prepared for was both the variety and deliciousness of their sides. There were too many to choose from. I ultimately decided on Erin's Moroccan spiced carrots and the elote corn salad. Both were fantastic. Given that they are in a commercial building food court, they also offer other choices - like kale salad or BBQ chef salad for lunch. The housemade pickles and pickled red onions and their two different kinds of barbecue sauce were very nice complements to the amazing meat.I wish I would have had room for dessert. I've heard great things about them as well - especially the banana+caramel cream pie. The truth is, I am going to have go back again (and again) to try the food that I didn't get to try this time around. If only Greenway Plaza were a shorter drive... Oh well.
