I only give 5 stars to the absolute best restaurant I've found in it's category(i.e. Texas BBQ, Mexican, sushi, etc.), and for Texas BBQ, this is the place. The moist brisket here is the only savory food that I've ever described as decadent, the pulled pork is absolutely outstanding, their sauce is dialed in perfectly, and even their sides and deserts leave absolutely nothing to be desired. I love this place enough that I went with them to provide the food for my wedding, and every attendant praised it highly. I cannot possibly recommend them enough.

They do veterans discount which is nice and cash discount. My husband and I got the BBQ quesidella. I added corn to mine. I asked that it not be all corn.. The kitchen didn't listen it was just corn and a little meat no Pico.. I sent back unfortunately. My daughter's pulled pork sandwich was dry and didn't look appetizing. She didnt care for it. The owner was nice. Too many amazing BBQ places close by.. Only one stands out above the rest.

This place lives up to all the fabulous reviews and great reputation. BBQ is really great and so is the potato salad in a really great setting littered with local community decorations. One of our favorite places now in Magnolia

Myself and three others enter the place only to receive stares. We proceeded to get in line only to have the couple in front of use says y'all can go ahead and we did. The workers were not friendly. That make the difference.no one welcomed us in. We were feeling certain way. Was it became are black or that an Hispanic was with us. But we were determine not to allow their attitude to become our problem. It is 6:30 p.m. and we were told they have a limited menu because they were out sold out. Oh why, were you very busy this afternoon:Emily said no, but the server on the left said yes. Hummmmm. Suggestion: have your works to welcome all people. Although we were stared at we sat down and enjoy our food.

10/10!! The barbecue pulled pork potato was EVERYTHING!! It was such a huge portion, but I could not stop eating it because it was beyond delicious! This is the best barbecue place I've been to!! Everything was cooked to perfection. All the employees were so nice and patient since it was my first time here. I loved the environment and I appreciated employees coming to our table and asking if everything was good. I honestly wish I could come here every day of the week to try everything they have to offer! I would highly recommend this place again and again!
