5 Reviews on “Ten50 BBQ”
Found this place on a quick trip to Dallas traveling from Shreveport. The reviews alone made it worth it to stop. Absolutely so glad we did! The meat is awesome, we tried brisket, chicken, ribs, and jalapeño cheddar sausage. They were all amazing, well cooked, seasoned and tender. The sides we tried were mac & cheese, beans, okra, onion rings, and slaw they were all delicious. The concept was meat outside on a tray then walk a line to get sides. The staff was very helpful and it was very clean. Bonus note to mention, we didn’t smell like smoke when we left!
Wow! I am in town visiting family and my cousin brought me here. I was highly impressed. Staff was super friendly and food was amazing! I was a bit confused on how to order the food but they walked us through everything with no issues. Lots of food for the price and lots of leftovers! Now this is good Texas BBQ!
Hate to be that person, but when it comes to Texas BBQ, this is not what I’d recommend. If you search best BBQ in Dallas, there’s a reason this place doesn’t come up. It’s a cool place, trendy vibe, and presents well. However, the flavors are bland and it feels like someone with a lot of money that likes BBQ had a great idea for a tax shelter. Even the web site has this commercialized vibe with no real back story. With that said, this is how I’ll break it down.
Brisket – 6/10 not bad, but not the best.
Pork – 3/10 gamey flavor, dry, and felt old.
Tornado – 6/10 wasn’t too bad, but bacon was a little soft.
Brisket Beans – 2/10 no comment!
Mac & Cheese – 8/10 star of the meal.
Cole Slaw – 4/10 it’s a fancy attempt at a dry vinegar slaw.
House Sauce – wasn’t good. Don’t try it.
Carolina Sauce – hate to break it to you, but that’s a Kansas City style sauce. Not even close to Carolina.
Homemade Dill Pickles – OK, but just stick with dill slices out of a jug.
Yeast Roll – this screams you aren’t a real BBQ place. It was tasty, but a yeast roll?
If you’re looking for a Longhorn Style BBQ, this is your place. If you want the real deal, go somewhere else.
The smoke flavor is not real strong but the tenderness and juicy was on point. The food temperature was luck warm. We came late, after the lunch hour. I was not thrilled that we had to buy a dinner roll, so I didn’t. The banana pudding was not special at all, bland flavor and my one slice of banana was soggy and lacked flavor. The fried Okra was a hit!! Hot and the seasoning they used were wonderful. I would come again if in the area and wanted BBQ
Food was good. Brisket was a tad bit dry but sausage and ribs were very good. The 2 guys ( big guy and scrawny guy) serving the meat were rude. I have never been there before and ordering is not straight forward. You order by the 1/2 pound or full pound. When we asked the scrawny dude about how much brisket is a pound, he gave us attitude and said how should I know, it could be 4 pieces 6, 8 etc. He’s there all damn day….im sure he could have made an educated guess or at least have some empathy for folks who have no clue.
Same with the side dish server (chick with short blond hair) I asked how big were the bread rolls because they didn’t have them out to see. She said…”well they’re rolls” no $hit Sherlock but can we see one?
Good service sets the tone to a good meal. In this case, the meal was mediocre.
On a side note, the manager seemed great! Offered us a take out bag on our way out. I didnt complain there and then because we had to run but maybe he should educate the staff on patience and attitude.
