I usually think the smaller, hole-in-the-wall places have the best food, but this place proved me wrong. The staff at The Shed were incredibly friendly and helpful, making the whole experience even better. Portions were generous, and everything tasted amazing. The brisket, in particular, stood out--it was moist, tender, and easily one of the best I've ever had. I even spoke with the manager to share how impressed I was, and he went above and beyond by taking me back to see the smokers. That really showed their pride in what they do. I can't say enough great things about The Shed Market--I just can't wait for my next trip back to Texas. Hope to add photos soon

However when I looked at the receipt it said 27 dollars and said a 8 dollar add on for brisket. If brisket is an option it should be specified it is extra. Staff was nice however and it was in a nice warehouse sort of building with cool decorations. Overall I would recommend this to a friend but tell them to be mindful of what they buy. Great food!

Absolutely some of the best BBQ I've had in ages - and I'm a bbq snob from Kansas City!…read more We had the sampler (brisket, pork ribs, pulled pork, pulled chicken, and one each of the mild and spicy sausages). I fully expected that one or two of the meats would be good and the rest just passable. I was wrong. Every single bite was spectacular. We also had the brisket and queso chips and pig candy - both were really tasty; the chips especially were very fresh and sprinkled with just a touch of bbq rub. We arrived a few minutes before they opened on a warm Saturday and the wait was about 75 minutes or so. Definitely worth standing in line for. There's ample outdoor (but covered) seating and plenty of good music playing, plus cornhole games if you're feeling competitive. Jays will be our go-to for BBQ the next time we're in Abilene! PS - if it's still available when you go, be sure to try the cherry chipotle sauce - it's amazing!

Driving around Texas eating BBQ that made the Texas Monthly Top 50 list so we had to stop at Jay's…read moreBBQ Shack. This is a food truck so all sitting is outside. They do have restrooms so that's nice. The line gets long and they are slow in taking orders and getting the food out. We arrived around 11:15 on a Friday and the line was already long so we decided we would order to go as we need to get to Lubbock before 3:00pm. We ordered the Texas Trinity to go. This place has charm and lots of stuff to look at while waiting in the long slow line. You can go up and order beer to drink in line but my thought is that the beer is over price. Some places have free beer or free water while you wait outside in the Texas heat, not here. So the food we got made it all the way back to eat in Houston on Sunday when we got back. The true test of good BBQ is how it taste when you reheat it, all the food was good but the brisket was a bit dry 8/10, the sausage was nice 9/10 and the pork rib was good 9/10. I recommend you try Jays BBQ when in the city of Abilene, Texas

Thre were a lot of people waiting when we arrived, but it didn't take long to get a table. The only thing I didn't like was that it was a cold night and they didn't have any hot tea, and the green beans were too peppery for my taste. The vegetable chicken was tender, juicy, and nicely seasoned. My hubby had the fried seafood and was equally pleased. If we lived in the area, we would go back since there were several other items on the menu I would have enjoyed trying.

I will say that you could probably get away with sharing the 12 oz brisket between two people. The sides are designed to be shareable so it's pretty much built in.
