    Smashburger
    Peter L.

    They had a booth at the Stock Show and Rodeo at the Frost Bank Center. We got there just in time before the line blew up. We got the smashburger at the recommendation of our friends. They have a single, double, or triple version. I got the double and added chili on mine which was an additional $1.50. The patties were super juicy and tender. It will warm you up inside especially since we were outdoors on the coldest, dreariest day of the year in San Antonio. Eat it quick because the grease will soak through the buns! I didn't think the chili added an additional dimension to it so didn't think that was worth it. But overall, would recommend!

    All the fat picked off the brisket and the not so good sausage.

    The luck we've had in Seguin when it comes to food is amazing. This place has its faults , but the four was because overall it was good! We had the famous brisket on brisket burger, and the trio plate. First the burger...wow! One of the best I've had in a while! Amazing flavor! It was perfect...EXCEPT...the actual brisket. It's a theme here that brisket honestly seems like they make zero attempts to trim it. It's not dry, and it is flavorful. We had a COMICAL side of macaroni. It was the absolutely smallest side I think I've ever had and I grew up with churches chicken calling a McDonald's small fries a family order. For three plus dollars too! To the plate, the brisket same thing...half fat and half meat. Still delicious, but had to pick off a lot of the fat which seems like sacrilege. The turkey was great! The fries were adequate. The onion rings are pretty good! The sausage on the other hand...just no. Had the texture of cornmeal. Didn't finish it. It looked pretty too what a-shame! The bbq sauce was AMAZING! Especially the spicier one! The menu has some crazy items! We want to come back with the whole crew to try all the items. Like lamb barbacoa and lamb ribs! We also had tres leches and banana pudding to go. The tres leches was just ok, and skip the banana pudding...trust me.

    This was a great find! I got the fried catfish plate and which was hot and delicious. The mac&cheese is the best I have had since moving to the area 6 years ago, and the cream corn was delicious. I love the vibe of the place. It has an old backyard BBQ feel with a family atmosphere. The staff was friendly, and the service was fast. I will add this place as a favorite.

    Ordered trio plate of chicken, turkey breast and pork ribs with a side of creamed corn and mac & cheese. And a catfish plate with cole slaw and green beans.

    My assorted meats order. So so good.

    I stopped in and got a variety of meats to go. I believe I may have met and spoken to the owner himself. Great guy! GREAT food. They've been around as long as me! If you're ever in Seguin, please stop in. They have burgers, catfish, shrimp, and a variety of family recipe sides - possibly the best potato salad I've ever had! Plus yummy looking desserts.

    Mom saw Davila's on TV and wanted try it. She loved it but me and hubby felt it was ok compared to other bbq places in the San Marcos & surrounding areas. We had the ribs, Turkey leg, and brisket Grill cheese sandwich.

    Must try! Papa Davila - smoked potato, with brisket, cheese and sour cream! It's enough for 2 meals! As we were eating, a lady says this peach cobbler is amazing! Y'all check out Davilas BBQ!

    For those of you who seem obsessed with the amount of pending drafts I have…read more and when I get them done and how many I do at a time... Take note, I'm now in my Seguin pending draft phase. I digress. Let's get this review going: This family-owned bbq joint opened their door just a couple of years ago (2023). Don't let this new establishment concern you because these folks have been at it for years. Their previous place was in Rosenberg and it opened back in 1990. Prior to that , the owner's parents started their first place back in 1964. Proper, generational barbecue...it's in their blood. In fact, I'm pretty sure their blood is bbq sauce. They know what they're doing! The restaurant and covered patio are modern and industrial with wood, brick, and metal elements. Ample seating inside and out. The food is bombastic! Sometimes they have an Italian beef sandwich that I'm just crazy about. Love these other sandwiches too: Brisket Turkey Sausage Boyfriend loves the pulled pork sandwich. The brisket nachos are mouth-watering goodness. They have brisket tostadas that I've not tried yet but definitely plan to. I lose my mind for the peach crumble and the boyfriend loves the pecan cobbler. Sides we love: Brisket rice!! Tater tot casserole!! Mac + cheese Buttered potatoes Do yourselves a favor, go pig out at this pit room. You'll be glad you did! PS: stellar service too

I went in today with my three-year-old son during lunch hour on a weekday and it just felt like the elder crowd was like "what are they doing here?" As I walked in. Now Maybe I'm a little guarded I mean, I'm a single full-time Dad prior military, so I'm protective and observant. Plus, some guy in a big ol truck of course ( mind you I have a truck) decided that he wanted to almost hit my son and I as we' attempted to walking across the parking lot. I digress, but it was to the extent that I didn't even want to sit inside, so we sat on the patio. Which reminds me 91° outside and the patio well well ventilated, w/ breeze and felt good. All in all just an iffy experience. Food was good not great turkey was dry but the baked potato salad will have me back through the drive-thru through.

Their brisket is divine and the sides we chose were out of this world. My husband loves their beans. The green beans were unique and I appreciated that they were super flavorful with tomatoes and delicious broth. The star of the show with the sides was the King Ranch Mac N Cheese!!!! I grew up on King Ranch Chicken Casserole as a child. So I was thrilled to have a macaroni with those delicious flavors. For a little history, that particular casserole emerged in the 1950s as a convenient, post-World War II Tex-Mex comfort food. Despite its name, it has no actual ties to Texas's famous King Ranch; instead, it is a creative, canned-soup-based casserole inspired by the Mexican dish chilaquiles. I am ususally underwhelmed by macaroni and cheese but this was the best. The macaroni shape was unusual and the closest I could find online was called "Radiator" because the similarity in shape to a radiator. It held the sauce perfectly though. McKayla helped us cart out our food to the car and was so sweet and helpful. We love Burnt Bean and plan to return!

You cannot try a wide variety of their dishes but it was enough for me. I had pick up at 10:30 and you just go to the back a bit of a wait like 10-15 minutes since they cut the meat to order. I got the brisket (2 lbs), pork ribs (2 lbs) , jalapeño sausage (1lb), and quart sizes of the corn pudding, tater tot dish, and hot cheeto mac and cheese. The stars were definitely the pork rib (super flavorful and tender), the brisket was fall apart tender, and the jalapeno sausage had a beautiful snap and is properly spicy. I was a bit disappointed with the sides. My favorite was probably the corn pudding but I still prefer a nice roasted corn OR a corn bread but this was a very unique combo of the two. The mac was okay and same with the tater tot side (honestly the potatoes were quite salty). The sauce isn't my favorite since I personally prefer a spicier sauce. The bread they have is very nice and the people are friendly. It's also quite smoky inside.

    Yesterday I stopped at the Bill Miller BBQ in Seguin to order one of the new 40-piece Chicken Bites…read morefamily meals, and it was one of the worst customer service experiences I've had in a long time. I asked the drive-thru employee, Enkenye, what came with the 40-piece meal. Her response was simply, **"I don't know."** I then asked if it came with sides or if it was listed somewhere on the menu that I was missing (it wasn't on the menu). She put me on hold, came back, and told me it included a family-size order of fries and a medium order of fries. Confused, I asked why it came with two orders of fries and whether I could substitute one of them for a different side. Her response through the speaker was, **"You're asking the wrong person."** I honestly didn't know how to respond, so I said, **"Well, you're the drive-thru person, so who should I be asking?"** If the employee taking orders can't answer basic questions about the menu, that's a management and training issue. To make matters worse, the drive-thru wait was around **25 minutes**, which is excessive for fast food. When I finally got to the window, I asked if the meal included pickles because every Bill Miller meal I've ever ordered has come with pickles. She asked, **"Did you order them?"** I said no because I assumed they came with the meal, and she looked at me and said, **"Nooooo, it doesn't come with pickles."** Seriously? A 40-piece family meal and you can't include a few pickles? It wasn't even about the pickles at that point--it was the dismissive attitude throughout the entire interaction. The food itself was fine, but customer service can absolutely ruin the experience. Between the lack of product knowledge, the rude responses, the 25-minute wait, and the unwillingness to provide something as simple as pickles, this visit was incredibly disappointing. I'll gladly drive farther to another location before returning to this one.

Well, the BBQ sauce was pretty bland and the coleslaw I chose as a side had no flavor. This is a Pepsi house for those Coke drinkers out there. I understand this is a chain restaurant. Although I was disappointed, I'd like to try other food options to see if other items taste good...but not BBQ items.
