I'll order 2 combo 2 instead. Or 2 combo 3. Better. Love the sauce. The spicy bbq sauce is the bomb. Mac is good. Corn bread on a dry side. Baked beans is so tasty. Service. The older lady that was cooking, she looks friendly but the younger girl at the cashier can work with some friendlier training. She looks upset.

(At a rib joint, the nerve) but it wasn't my plate so oh well. First note this is a pick up spot only there is an ordering counter that no more than 4 people can be in at a time. The street is super dark and desolate looking it feels like an industrial area think City of Industry. There's no parking well there's one spot to park for pick up. The street parking is filled with what looked like broken down type cars the four I seen had chalk writing like tow yards do. To the food!!! Ordered 2 two meat meals that come with 2 sides. Not a piece of bread or muffin was included. Please notice the dry @$$ pulled pork? and I got 4 pieces of a rib tip that was the same as 1 maybe 2 real tips ANYWHERE else.the tips were chopped into 2-4 pieces from one full tip. So I really feel cheated and I was frigging hungry -hungry. The pork was dry and couldn't be swallowed without the bbq sauce and drink. She ordered a hot link with ribs and added a side of ribs for an additional $24. The sides came in a small container I had Mac n cheese and greens which every bite I was like wish I had cornbread to add to these greens. While she had greens and the sweet potato (which by the way was the best thing they had going on) the Mac was average I'm about to reheat and toast again before I hit send for this review. Reheated the side of ribs, greens and Mac and it's a bit better than the pulled pork, but this definitely isn't a bbq spot I'd advise anyone to go to nor would I dare try without bbq sauce and a lot of it. Dessert banana pudding last time I was here the desserts were pretty good. This tasted like the yoplait whips yogurts consistency and like knock of Nila wafers I was just sooo utterly disappointed.

We thought we might leave with leftovers but we finished it all off in blissful BBQ heaven. The service was particularly good, friendly, quick and no nonsense. Comfortable busy dining room with lots of families of all ages. We finished off with sweet potato pie and cheesecake. I wish they had collard greens .... But then it's a Texas BBQ place... Lots of great food and great memories. Don't miss this Valley institution!

We've been coming here for a while and have always enjoyed the food, so this review is a little…read moredisappointing to write. We placed a large pickup order for our Fourth of July gathering, and unfortunately, the quality just wasn't there this time. The ribs and brisket were both very dry and overcooked, which was especially disappointing since those are usually our favorites. We also requested au jus with our order, but it wasn't included. I understand it was an incredibly busy holiday, and I know the staff was probably doing their best to keep up with the volume. Still, when you're spending a good amount of money on barbecue for a big party, you expect the food to be cooked well and the order to be complete. This time, it just wasn't worth the price. The one bright spot was the sides. They're always delicious, fresh, and consistent, and they didn't disappoint this time either. I'm hoping this was just an off day because we've had good experiences here in the past. We'd definitely like to see the quality return to what we know they're capable of.

His two employees were sitting at the only table outside smoking and told me I couldn't take my dog inside and wouldn't give up the table. So I left and went next door to Daniel's taco and spent my money. By the way, no one was manning the order counter, no one was inside, no one was coming and they literally drove me off with my dog when they were taking up the only patio seating smoking and could have made the sale. You have two employees who are rude and doing more to lose you money than make you money. Obviously your location is suffering, so why are you turning away business you easily could have accommodated. Rude.

I got a ribeye and a pound of pork belly. The pork belly I turned into Chicharron. The ribeye I seared on both sides and cooked for three minutes each side. It came out, medium rare to rare and was super delicious. I will go back to this place next time. I got a hankering for a fancy steak. They got tomahawks and Wagyu ribeyes.

Ordered 4 plates and they all had their own positives. First you choose the type of item you'd like: plate, bowl, or sandwich. There are a few meat options with no added upcharge, but I decided to try items that were interesting and they all had a slight upcharge. Short Rib plate Lamb Kebob plate Beef Rib plate Salmon plate The meats were good, my favorite was the lamb, followed by short rib, beef rib, then salmon. However, can I just mention that their beet salad is AMAZING! I'm not even a huge beet fan. Other sides were really good as well, tzatziki, hummus, fries, rice, cabbage salad, mashed potatoes. Don't forget to ask for the garlic sauce, it's really good to dip the fries into. Not really a date night place, this is a butcher shop with some tables so that you can dine-in.

The friendly duo of ladies (I'm assuming they were the titular Nia & Jags) greeted me with smiles and friendly conversation, and quickly served up the sample I was meant to get as part of my package "Passport Deal." This was a small bite of Cuban pulled pork on a bed of pita chips. The pork was tender and very juicy without being fatty at all. Yes, the meat was juicy and lean, so these folks must be doing something right in the kitchen. The flavor itself was distinctly Cuban, with Caribbean spices and a bright, citrusy burst that provided a welcome contrast to the rest of the American-style smoked meats at the festival. The pita chips, while not homemade, also provided a welcome change from the standard breads and tortillas served at the other booths. Though I didn't get to sample the rest of their wares, now that I'm well-aware of their names, I'll be looking for Nia & Jags at other events so I can taste what else they're cooking up... I'm gonna go ahead and assume it'll be just as good. I mean, juicy AND lean? That ain't easy!
