Is this place worth the hype? YES, absolutely! The magic of Snow's is not just the amazing BBQ, it's the overall family atmosphere. You are treated like family and that just makes the whole experience beautiful. I recommend arriving early to make sure you get try everything. Some folk arrive as early as 4AM to secure a place in line. If so, bring everything you need to get comfortable (chairs, blankets etc) and be prepared to enjoy the company of other Texas BBQ fans for a few hours.

This is the most wanted place my husband wants to try in TX.Arrived at 4:50 am — and we are #55 and #56. After queuing at three other BBQ places, this was the only one that started the day by singing the National Anthem around 7:30 am, 30 minutes ahead of the scheduled opening time at 8:00 am.Enjoyed the brisket, pork ribs, and sausage; met the legendary "Queen of BBQ," Tootsie, gave her 90th birthday wishes in person, and took photos with her — an unforgettable experience! She shared that she's still working five days a week at another job. She truly makes 90 look amazing!

Okayyyy we did it!!! We showed up at 4am, to an already long line of people waiting for the famous"snows" B-B-Q! The vibe was just right, a very tailgate atmosphere... bring chairs! The Waite was worth it! The meat melted in your mouth the potato salad has earned honorable mention! Snow's is only open on Saturday! And the people in the front of the line got there at 8:30pm on Friday:).... They were having raffles and my lucky hubby won front of the line

Very happy with my experience at this Famous BBQ spot, I couldn't get chicken and it's a most to try so get before 6am if you really wanna get every single item in the menu. Meeting Tootsie was a real honor. Their Banana Pudding was really a highlight.

Worth the drive from Austin in the early morning hours. The atmosphere while waiting is fun. The free bar is a nice touch, helps the time go by quickly. The food is phenomenal. Brisket is a must get as are the pork steaks. I would argue the pork steaks are better the second day.
