If you can get a three-meat plate for less than $20, with a couple of sides, go for it. You order at the counter and then go get it when ready. Many folks get orders to go, so it's not a fancy dining room, and has picnic-style tables. They put generous helpings on the platter, too. I had brisket, pork ribs, and jalapeno sausage and it was very good. I tend to like it a little smokier, but this was fine. Brisket was tender, ribs fell off of the bone, and sausage was sliced and crispy around the edges. Good sauces at the table as well. And, it's adjacent to a meat market and store. My wife noted that their ground beef was a better price than local big grocery stores. They also have a large frozen cooler with all sorts of goodies including Cajun. We are going back. read more

We love this place. The baked potato with smoked meat is so delicious. The chicken fried steak is as good and so big. The brisket is heaven Everything is delicious read more

Wonderful!!! Such a gem hidden in a shopping center. Went to NASA and stopped here after. Here's what we got! Kids: corn dog- huuuuuuge. Like can't finish it good. Kid 2: burger with cheese - Holy crap. I hate burgers (I know) but that was insane. 2 meat plate is better than 1 because for 2 more dollars you get another meat and 2 sides. Brisket and sausage on my plate- brisket was slightly dry but we got the leaner end so that is to be expected. **I shared this plate with my dad, and was stuffed.** Husband did 2 meat and got chicken - it was huge! Sides: Def do the green beans. Perfection. Great meal and great ambience. Super casual and divey. read more

So I'm supposed to wait in a long line for 10 to 20 minutes even though I have a mobile order that is ready to be picked up? That is a waste of time and very unprofessional... fix that. read more

Oh my goodness was the food delicious at Dave's. I had the breaded pork tenderloin sandwich, which I have not found in Texas until now. Growing up in a state where this sandwich is king, I have been desperate to find one here. Now I have. As a matter of fact, it may have been the best one I have eaten ever. The meat was tender and juicy with a perfect amount of seasoning in the breading. One bite and I thought I was in heaven! My husband had the pulled pork sandwich and indicated it was delicious as well. The fries were crispy on the outside but tender inside and the serving was enough for 3 people. I like fresh brewed tea, but the gold peak fountain tea was an okay substitute. The desserts looked yummy. read more

Amazing food and prices! Everyone is so nice and super helpful! Huge portions and great prices too!

So glad I got a chance to enjoy some great Texas BBQ while visiting. Dave's definitely satisfied!!! This is a small restaurant attached to a meat shop. They offer sandwiches and plates of BBQ with the typical side dishes. I asked what their best sandwich was, and was told it was hands down the Pulled Pork. Absolutely the best advice!! The meat was so tender and was probably seasoned with more than just the BBQ sauce topping. Definitely recommend coming here if you are craving some great BBQ. read more

They did not miss on loading up their large BBQ baked potato! Hot, tasty and delicious! To order was very easy and quick! Small quaint smokehouse with lots of decor! Definitely recommend trying Dave's Smokehouse! read more

This is the best steakhouse I've been too. The brisket was fabulous and the ribeye steak was tender with the best house rub.

Best place to eat out in Webster. The Dave's 2 is the best. Definitely hit them up and come here with family.

First time getting the chicken fried steak plate and it was really good. Huge portions. I've had the pulled pork and brisket sandwiches and they were just as good. read more

Dave's Smokehouse - Chicken Fried Steak. It delicious. - Barbeque Near Me - Seabrook, Texas

I've been going to Bay Area meets for 13 years. Great service, outstanding beef, chicken, bacon, other smoked products sausages. I was there this morning and bought 10 pounds of 80/20 ground chuck which was the lowest price I could find in the area. What they do is they package it in 1 pound freezer paper wrapping and stamped ground chuck on the paper and sell it by a bag that contains 10 of them. I've done this before and it's already a great price plus they're already pre-wrapped and very convenient to store. Anyway, while I was waiting for that I went over to the smokehouse Dave smokehouse, which is next and connected to Bay Area Meats and thought I'd grab something for lunch and I ordered a BLT to go. Got home, unwrapped it and that was one of the better BLT I've had in sometime. It was great. I will definitely go back not only for Bay Area meats but also for Dave smokehouse BLT. By the way, you can't beat the interior of both places the ambience is pretty incredible although them knickknacks they have hanging up and placed an all sorts of areas. It's fun to look around. read more

My co worker was being nice and brought one of his favorite BBQ for us to try out. So I gave it a try. I ate it three hours later, so my okra was wet and soggy, but I like any kind of okra so I still ate it. The rib was two bones unseasoned and dry, sauce was definitely required. Brisket was the only thing I enjoyed. It was sliced and long. Sausage link was too many and not tasty to me. I didn't even eat the potato salad because of my experience thus far. Not knocking this place, but I've had better around town. Brownies were good and fudgie. read more

Totally a hidden gem! We're on this road pretty frequently and never paid attention the building. Super cute ambiance. The meat market had soo many more options than I expected! Definitely coming back to try a couple of things. The food really exceeded my expectations in every way. From the juicy ribs, moist sliced brisket, sliced sausage, and the Mac and cheese. There was also a baked potato with inly fixings and a chicken strip basket on our table, and even those were hot and fresh. Very generous portion sizes. Service was okay, but we were surprised at how long it took for the food to come out. They were busier after we finally got our order than they we're when we arrived. But considering the quality and flavor of every single thing we ordered, the wait was worth it. Happy we came across Dave's, we can't wait to return! read more

The butcher shop is exceptionally clean. The large number of offerings each looked fresh and are competitively priced. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I ordered takeout of both sliced and chopped brisket with sides of coleslaw (JUST OK), baked beans (100% Van Camps) and potato salad (better than average). The brisket was exceptional!!! I noticed a huge number of choices on the menu, very surprising given its not really a dine-in establishment...going to try catfish next time along with some boudin balls. You won't be disappointed. No dine-in ambiance...the bhtcher shop was cute. read more

They have reduced their portion size. It's a shame, but better to aware of this instead of being disappointed like I was when they handed me my order. read more

Always a good little lunch sport for the Clear Lake area. I must admit I don't come here very often. I ordered a brisket sandwich with potato salad as a side. Overall it was a good sandwich with a decent amount of meat and bread ratio. I did put bbq sauce on top of the pickle and onion that comes included with it. The potato salad was pretty good tasting and filling. I'm glad I did not order any more or else I would most certainly gone into a food crash. My coworkers bought the all you can eat lunch plate and were extremely happy and content. What was even more surprising is that they let you take a to go box . I would give a tip to anybody in the area that anytime after 1130 is probably a little on the late side. This place will fill up and the order line gets a little backed up. I always didn't like the layout because the drink machine and cups and silverware is all next to register. So there's a lot of cutting through people. Wait times are all dependent on how busy they are. There is an attached meat market. I've gone there a few times and have been impressed with the quality of their meat. I will say sometimes in some cuts of meat you will pay for that...but that's life right!? Ha Hope it helps.... read more

Oh. My. Dave's Smokehouse is great. We went during the lunch hour and the place was packed. I had the brisket plate with fried okra and potato salad, and my hubby had pulled pork with baked beans and coleslaw. The plates also come with Texas toast. Everything was home made including the fried okra (which is rare). All of the portions were large enough to share, and we even took home enough for dinner. There is also a meat market with wonderful looking meats and seafood. We cannot wait to go back. read more

Really good pulled pork and ribs. T-bone also really good and is bigger than your face. 10/10 would recommend. Sweet tea was a little too sweet though. read more

Delicious.... this was my third visit here. This time I ate the chicken fried chicken, gravy on side, fried okra, and mac n cheese. The crust was so flavorful and chicken so fresh... it didn't need any gravy. The okra, nice crunch, fresh. Mac n Cheesy... buttery, nice texture. Now I had the double burger on prior visit and was outstanding. As well as chicken sandwich . I can walk there... and it's worth it. I have not tried the BBQ... and that's my next! If they had beer I'd be in a whole different place eating their yum food ! Cheers! read more

Nice decoration, very clean and neat, chopped brisket simply topping! One of the best BBQ restaurants in the town. Price is very reasonable. Strongly recommended. read more

What's the best complement to a meat market? A restaurant that serves meals from the same stock of meats that they sell next door. It's a casual meal featuring (for me) great BBQ. I was lucky enough to be there today when they had the large brisket sandwich on sale for $1.99. So good that people were getting bags of food to go, and then about 15 guys came in at the same time for a meal at the long table down the center of the eating area. Takes incredible self control to stop at the meat market without getting lunch or dinner in this place. You owe it to yourself to make a stop here. read more

My brisket sandwich was okay but my onion rings tasted like burnt oil. Staff seemed nice but some of the cooks were creepy as they have a straight shot view of the counter. As a woman I felt very uncomfortable. The only good thing about this place was probably their brisket and the pricing. Other than that, I wouldn't recommend. read more

I've had the BBQ, the baked potato, and a hamburger from here. All have been really good! Plus, it's within walking distance from my work so when we're super busy, we just call in an order and in 15-20 minutes go pick it up. Plus, when we have potlucks, work always orders a big ol' mess of BBQ yums! I actually haven't eaten inside, but I've been inside to pick up orders, and it's always been nice and clean and the people pleasant. The food is very good! The baked potato with bbq is freaking huge and delicious, and I really like the sausage and the chicken. The brisket is good too, but I'm not a huge fan of brisket, so I don't usually order it, but if it's there, I'll have a nibble. The one thing I'm not a fan of is the sauce. it's not terrible, but it's not amazing. Luckily the meat is so good, you don't need to drown it in sauce. This isn't my favorite BBQ place, but if you're in the area, and need good, solid 'que at not a huge price, this is the place for you! read more

Simolemente delicioso, y lo mejor las tres B: bueno, bonito y barato así decimos en Colombia, recomendado

This is the best kept Barbecue secret in the Bay Area. They don't advertise too much (you won't find coupons), but across the meats (ribs, brisket, chicken, sausage) there isn't better. Sides are above par across the board. It's an old fashioned, order at the counter place with picnic tables in the small dining room (no tips needed, just bus your own tray). You can also get meat by the pound to go. I can't comment on the burgers, why would you order one when the sliced and chopped BBQ sandwiches are so good? They've only been open 25 years, so I'm guessing they ain't leaving anytime soon. Don't come here, it might get too crowded! **update, while this is the best BBQ in the Bay Area, I'm moving down to 4 stars based upon its competition. While I go here as much as I can, it can't be compared to the elite places in Houston. Also, tried the pulled pork and it was average, and sometimes the bread is a little non-fresh. Anyway, solid 4 stars, come by here if you're in the area for a great lunch at a great local BBQ place. ** read more

Ribs here are smoky, meaty. Brisket is moist. Sausage is above average. Greenbeans are probably from frozen, but prepared well with a little bacon, nice seasoning. Portions generous for the price. Counter service, plastic plates and glasses, plastic flatware comes out of an odd dispensing machine with a handle. Traditional Texas Barbeque "Farm Junk" decor on the walls. Seating at one long common table down the middle or at picnic tables on sides. Many awards and trophy's from local BBQ competitions hung on the walls -- and in the men's room. Rest rooms a bit on the grotty side. Dave's Smokehouse is connected to the adjoining Bay Area Meat Market & Deli. You can buy something raw out of their meat-case and Dave's will cook it to order for a buck. (Which is an excellent deal) and they do a good (but not superb) job with the steaks and chops. I have come here a couple times a month for many years. Service is usually pretty quick. Sauce is a little too sweet for me; they sometimes forget when I tell them to hold the sauce. read more

This place is a new go to for me!! Holy cow. The chicken fried steak Sammy was undeniably one of the BEST I've ever had, and it's one of my go to orders! Frito pie, OH MY! Though the sauce is a touch on the sweeter side, it accompanied the meat beautifully!! Service was prompt, helpful, and pleasant. As it was my first time, the clerk guided me to silverware and what was the best sellers. This place is a cute lil Mom and Pop shop. Very comfy cabin feel. Wooden picnic tables. Woodsy smell hits you the minute you walk in. Gets you ready for a treat to eat!!! I'll be back most definitely!!! It's just a sad thing that it's always Sunday or Monday I think about going! Either way, worth the effort of going and timing it right. read more

Dave's Smokehouse - Barbeque Near Me - Seabrook, Texas

This place is part of Bay Area Meat Market. If you want you can go in the meat market, choose your steak and they'll take it to the kitchen. They have good steaks and a pulled pork sandwich to die for. They and T-Bone Tom's have the best chicken fried steak in the Clear Lake Area. I can't remember getting BBQ here (other than pulled pork sandwichs) so I don't know about that but since all the meat is good . . . The ambiance is country cookhouse. It's sort of dark and seems dingy. You "dine" on picnic tables. The walls are covered with an eclectic collection of old time memorabilia. Don't miss the Thompson Sub-Machine Gun, but you wouldn't have caught Al Capon eating here. If you're looking for Hemingway's "Clean, Well-Lighted Place" you may not want to come here. If I were rating the ambiance I'd give it two stars. They do a big BBQ take-out business. My guess is it's because people love the food but don't want to eat here. We eat here about once a month, sometimes more often. UPDATE 6/21/2016: Grab a sandwich or some barbecue and go across the street to Clear Lake Forrest park and have a picnic. We did that today. See pictures. ___ We've Eaten Out Every Meal for more than 30 years read more

My significant other saw this place on the way to work so we decided to give it a try when we were craving BBQ. It is exceptional because it has an attached meat market where you can get fresh cuts and cheeses by the pound, so there is a guarantee that everything they serve is fresh. The atmosphere is very southern with large picnic tables for seating small and big parties, and the staff is extremely friendly. When they learned it was our first visit, they gave us our drinks for free! The menu was extensive, offering all types of meat and preparations as sandwiches and plates. The sandwiches require you to order sides a la carte, and they come in large portions (enough to split). The platters come with less meat but two sides. They also have daily specials that are definite bargains--today's was the pulled pork sandwich for $2.99! So you can each super cheap if you are up for trying something new. The food was awesome--everything had a fresh taste and was made well. The chopped brisket sandwich is huge and enough for two people to split! All sandwiches come with optional onions, pickles, and jalapeños, so you get it how you want it. The okra was steaming and the onion rings were cooked to perfection, crunchy and well done. We loved every part of the meal and will definitely be back! read more

*Note: Dave's is closed on Sundays and Mondays! You know your bbq is going to be high quality when the joint is connected to a meat market. Dave's is our go-to bbq place. I love their pulled pork and chopped brisket. Their smoked chicken and turkey is also delicious. You can get a 2-, 3- or never-ending meat plate (dine in only for this option!). Their pecan cobbler is da bomb. They usually have a crazy good special posted at the door. Most recently it was a chicken plate with 2 sides for 5.99. Can't go wrong! They shut down the friers and grills about 30 mins before closing, so make sure you get there before that to get some delish fried okra. read more
