    The rib sandwich
    Aydaw M.

    Good evening, everybody, so I had to come down here to Beaumont. Texas and I wanted to try some barbecue, so I try out Charles barbecue. The boudain was on point i also got a rib sandwich My rib sandwich was not the best. It was very hard and dry and to much sweet bbq sauce was not happy. I will not get that again.

    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!

    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
    Alyssa R.

    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.

    1701 BBQ - Fatty Brisket

    1701 BBQ

    4.5(108 reviews)

    You can tell a lot about a place from how they act when things aren't easy…read more We showed up about three minutes before this place closed and everybody was so incredibly nice and welcoming. We actually tried to take the food to go so that we didn't hold them up and they said no it was fine. They'd be there cleaning anyway, and that we should sit and enjoy it, which was awesome. The wonderful service was also reflected by the food. My wife is still commenting on how delicious the brisket was. Get out here as soon as you can hopefully before 1:55 PM.

    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 were driving from NOLA to Austin and had high end dinner reservations in both cities so we just…read morewanted Good but Quick BBQ for our lunch 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.

    My wife and I decided to take a road trip to Beaumont to visit her sister, and while we were there,…read morewe decided to give Broussard's a try. We ordered the ribs, brisket, links, pork bone, baked potato, potato salad, beans, and Kool-Aid. One of the first things we noticed was that we couldn't smell any wood burning. When you're going somewhere for BBQ, that smoky wood-fired aroma is one of the first things you expect. Unfortunately, there was no smell of smoke, and after tasting the food, it all started to make sense. The food was extremely disappointing. Everything was covered in an excessive amount of BBQ sauce, to the point where it was difficult to taste the actual meat. The ribs were tough. The brisket was also tough, had no smoke ring, and lacked that deep, smoky flavor you expect from properly smoked brisket. The pork bones tasted more like boiled meat than smoked BBQ. At that point, we started wondering if the sauce was being used to cover up the lack of smoke and flavor in the meat. My sister-in-law said the best thing we had was the Kool-Aid--and honestly, she wasn't wrong. I spent $128.88 on this meal, and I honestly feel like I spent $128.88 on trash. That's a lot of money to spend on food that was this disappointing. We drove to Beaumont expecting some good BBQ, but instead we got tough meat drowning in BBQ sauce with very little smoke flavor. BBQ is supposed to be about the meat, the smoke, the seasoning, and the time it takes to cook it right. Unfortunately, none of that came through in this meal. Needless to say, this was our first and last visit. For $128.88, I expected a meal worth talking about. Instead, the Kool-Aid was the highlight of the entire experience.
