    Charlie himself!
    Jeff D.

    I was over in Beaumont on a motorcycle ride, and had seen an article on Charlie in the March '24 Texas Monthly, specifically his smoked oxtail. The place was right on my route, so I decided to stop in to try it out and glad I did! Charlie, after learning I rode over from Austin, came out to talk a little barbecue, and what a nice guy! The oxtail was as great as described in the article!

    Their BBQ has cinnamon!! Everything is absolutely wonderful @ this place. Keosha B. took our order @ the drive-thru. So energetic & willing to share information about the food! Most definitely recommend.

    Chopped Beef with Links Wet, Rice dressing and beans.

    Great southern BBQ, with Louisiana flavor. Rice dressing is on point, Brisket and Ribs are delicious. Try the links, with sauce on the side. You'll be coming back.

    This was my first time eating here after someone suggested I try it. I just say that the link sandwiches were very good. It's good to come back home to Beaumont for a good homemade link sandwich that I have been unable to find elsewhere.

    I was just driving down College Street in the mood for barbecue and saw this quaint little place. Stopped in and had the two meat plate which was homemade sausage link and sliced brisket. The brisket was very tender and lean. The homemade sausage link had a very good flavor and the insides would just fall apart every time you cut the sausage. It wasn't like your standard sausage that retains its shape. It was more like ground up brisket made into a sausage link. Even though it's something I've never experienced at a barbecue joint. For having a brisket sausage link, it was very good. There are no fountain drinks or pictures of tea. All of the drinks are in a refrigerator cabinet in cans or bottles. It's your standard soft drinks and bottled tea.

    Chicken, ribs beans, potato salad, complementary bread

    It was pretty OK. The staff is very friendly but possibly much room for management to enforce health and safety measures as many workers already seem crowded together behind their counter and not covered in masks, etc. Chicken should have been cooked longer as it was very very pink inside, ribs were too fatty (but risk you pay for to-go ribs), beans were tasty, potato salad was OK, boudain (not pictured) and links were good. Bottom line, if you want quick bbq, you might choose to check this spot out.

    We decided we wanted to try a new spot for dinner today and we decided to try Charlie's BBQ & Catering at 3125 College St, Beaumont, TX which was very easy to find. By the time we got there the place closed at 7 but the inside closed at 6 so we had to use the drive thru. There was actually a couple of cars in line ahead of us but the line moved rather quickly once we got to the window a nice lady came to the window and asked us what we like for today I decided to order the two meat plate with links and ribs with potato salad and baked beans my fiance decided to order a Two meat plate with ribs and brisket also with baked beans and potato salad and of course as I was looking at the menu I noticed they were also selling popcorn balls so of course I definitely had to try one of those to see if it was an authentic Steen syrup popcorn ball. Once we placed our order it didn't we didn't have to wait that long. The containers were heavy and The smell coming out if the window was heavenly. She thank us and said please come again. Once we arrived home we opened our containers and we were not disappointed. Everything was delicious. The ribs were so tender they literally slid off the bone with no work involved. They sell links there which is not the same as a sausage. The link was homemade almost with the texture if boudin but it was delicious. The brisket was also good literally melted in you're mouth. The potato salad and baked beans were also delicious, loved the texture and great homemade flavors. Last but not least I had to try the popcorn ball. It's good but definitely different had a cinnamon taste to the syrup which gave it a unique flavor. Old fashioned Popcorn balls made with Steens Syrup is absolutely my favorite and the best. But this one was pretty good. Great decision for dinner. So Yelpers if you're in or passing through Beaumont Texas check out Charlies Barbecue and Catering. You wont be disappointed.

    Call ahead & order

    1701 Barbecue lived up to every bit of the hype. And then some…read more We came to Beaumont because I had business involving TDCJ and had my mom and brother in tow with me. Mom needs to be entertained, and she loves to eat. So while researching things to see, eat, and do, 1701 Barbecue kept showing up over and over again. Now I know why. Wow doesn't even begin to describe it. We ordered a pound of brisket, brisket boudin, pit beans, pepper jack mac & cheese, chocolate chip cookies, banana pudding, canned sodas, Boerne Original Jalapeño Everyday Sauce, and Hot Rodeo Sauce. Every single thing was delicious. (Well, I didn't eat the sauce. Both are gifts for friends.) The brisket was unbelievably tender. My mom is 84 years old and actually said it was the best meat she has ever eaten. She spent half the meal trying to figure out how they get it that tender and then asked. They cook it for 14 hours. The brisket boudin was fantastic, the pit beans were loaded with flavor, and the pepper jack mac & cheese was every bit as good as everyone says it is. Even the desserts were outstanding. The banana pudding is homemade and disappeared quickly, and Mark devoured the made-on-site chocolate chip cookies. We got there just in time before an afternoon downpour, and while it was busy, it wasn't the chaos some online reviews had led me to expect. Everything was excellent and definitely memorable. The only negative thing I can say has nothing to do with the food and everything to do with online ordering. Skip the online premium. Seriously. Every website suggests to skip the line and absolutely order ahead because it's a MUST. Nope. The prices online were noticeably higher. For example, the Friday half chicken special was $8 online but only $6 in person. The banana pudding was $5 online versus $3.50 in the restaurant. When the line is reasonable, it's simply not worth paying the extra markup. Save your money and order when you get there. Food this good doesn't come around often. If you're in Beaumont, 1701 Barbecue is absolutely worth the stop.

We passed all kinds of fast-bbq chains but found this singular joint via fellow Yelpers. Yay! We ordered a pulled pork sandwich and the ribs and sausage entree. In hindsight I should have (always do) requested light sauce or on the side because all too often (as was the case here) it is sugary and dripping in excess. The pulled pork was 5-stars despite being soaked in bbq sauce. The surprising part was there was easily 1/2 lb of meat between the little round buns. The sausages were equally incredible... homemade and you could tell because the large casings were nearly impossible to bite through but inside was a lightly packed crumble of outstanding meat and spices. We ended up just sliding or squeezing the ground meat out of the two casings. Fortunately, no bbq sauce inside the casing so the meat was able to sing on its own. The lone disappointment were the ribs - there were only 4 and they were not especially warm nor tender. I was expecting fall-off-the-bone and these resembled ribs that had cooked for 2-3 hours but needed another 2 hours to be "done." You order at the window and there's an outdoor/covered picnic-like room about 40 feet away. There is no indoor seating. While flies can get into that open room (no door) it wasn't annoying at this time of year. Parking is easy in their private lot and everything was nicely packaged since every order is essentially to-go.

    There's something seriously flawed with the business model if you're okay with charging a customer…read morethe credit card fee on top of your fixed prices. Bro-- increase your prices by 2.5%z.
