Today I tried the brisket nachos at a school event. The chips were from a bag (not home made) and the cheese was canned. Aside from these points, the brisket was to be the star of the plate. The brisket itself had a pleasant smokiness to it, from this it was obvious that they brisket had been smoked for several hours. However, the canned cheese took away from the brisket. In addition, the brisket had quite a bit of fat on it. I give the nachos 2 stars, the extra star was for the owner who severed the food. read more

BEST FRIED CHICKEN IN TOWN We had the brisket tacos and fried chicken and both are absolutely delicious! The brisket is tender, moist and flavorful and the chicken is spectacular -- crispy, tender with just the right amount of breading and salt. Not greasy or heavy at all. Honestly the best wings I've ever had, and I love me some fried chicken! The owner Brent is super nice and thoughtful too. We will definitely make this a staple during our trips to the mall. read more

Was excited to try Dirty Glove last Monday night and I checked their hours to be sure they were open. Hours said 10 pm they opened so I went by at 10:30. There was a closed lot of food trucks. Nothing open. I drove out of my way about 20 min. Needless to say... 1 star. read more

The owner is the best! the food is amazing, you won't regret eating here & coming for good vibes! very welcoming and did I bring up the boss? yeah, he's amazing and worth every penny! Come check it out! read more

I screamed like an excited, little kid when I stumbled upon a food trailer that serves the real deal, Michigan-style, Coney dogs in Austin! Screw your diet for a day, swing by Dirty Glove Midwest BBQ when you're passing Howard on I-35, and get yourself a straight from Michigan Coney (heavy chili and mustard), chili-cheese fries, and a Faygo. If Austin thinks Detroit-style* pizza is good, wait until they taste the real, Detroit-style food - Coney Island!** *BTW, don't ask for Detroit-style pizza while in Michigan. No one will know what the hell you're talking about. read more

Over the years, I've made the rounds and dined at most of the 'big name' BBQ joints in and around Austin. And it's just My Humble Opinion, but the BBQ at Dirty Glove is as good as or better than anything I've ever had from Franklin's, La Barbecue, Black's, and all the rest. There's a menu, but Beef Brisket and Pork Ribs are the name of the game here. Brent gifted me a slice of brisket hot off the grill, I took a bite, and it was like a small religious experience came down upon me. When I go out in pursuit of BBQ, I always over-order. Because the saddest sentence in the English language is "We're out of BBQ". And also I'm from the school of thought that dictates that one should always be able to reach into one's refrigerator and grab a quick bite to eat. If that bite consists of leftover BBQ, that means we're all having a really good day. Yesterday there was but a single pork rib left in my refrigerator. And I ate it cold, leaning over the kitchen sink - I know, I'm disgusting - but I was indulging my primal solitary carnivorous man-beast nature. You can't do that with just any pork ribs. But you can do it with the pork ribs from Dirty Glove BBQ. And there was a *lot* of meat on that one single rib. There's a downside to this: I have to hit the confession booth this Friday, because anything that makes you say "Oh My God!" more than five times in ten minutes is pretty surely a sinful act of some kind or another. They offer two kinds of BBQ sauce, both have a notable molasses note that I found agreeable - but Dirty Glove serves the kind of BBQ that doesn't *need* sauce. They also serve coney dogs. I've gotta sink my teeth into one soon. Okay, in the interest of being fair and balanced and providing an honest (if unapologetically exuberant) review, there is a real downside, and it is that - at the time I'm writing this - Dirty Glove's hours of operation are a bit sketchy. I hope the situation is a bit more stable by the time you are reading this. But it's like a law of nature or maybe economics: whether it's standing in a long line, or waiting until 4pm Tuesday, or pulling into the parking lot and seeing a sign in the window that says "sorry, we're out of BBQ" and vowing to return tomorrow - laying hands upon the best BBQ takes real effort. I sometimes wonder if Heaven is a place where you can say "hey, let's go grab some BBQ" and five minutes later you're digging into a rack of amazing ribs. But "every day above the ground is a good day". And with some BBQ from Dirty Gloves, it might even be a *great* day. read more

For some reason I've been craving BBQ late at night recently, IM SO GLAD I FOUND THIS FOOD TRUCK! I got the brisket nachos and they were amazing! Great service AND open late! read more

So my friends and I got to Austin pretty late but we wanted some food and fast! Now I'm from Texas Houston to be exact so when I saw Midwest bbq I was a bit weary of actually trying it, but I'm glad I did! They're a black owned food truck ! They have a cute little set up with chairs benches and music! The food was tasty and seasoned well . Not saucy like Texas bbq but still worth the taste ! I will be back when I'm in Austin! read more

Found this little yellow gem a few weeks ago, and am excited to try more of Brents items! This guy has been slangin food for years. I remember him, his backpack and styrofoam containers from Saturday mornings at my sons barber shop... and now hes got himself a trailer in North Austin. Hes right next to Three Chicks Soulfood, on the west side of Howard lane, right before it goes residential into the Scofield area. The fries are homefries, and they're delish! My daughter loved her chicken burger, fish and wings. Super nice guy, totally aims to please your pallet!! We WILL be back. read more

Really good food and amazing people! I enjoyed the experience and would recommend. I have no complaints. I will go back.

Everything is amazing. I haven't really tried the brisket yet, but have done the sausage, ribs, wings, greens, macaroni and cheese, and potato salad. All of it was amazing. Honestly, I like this place better than Blacks BBQ their food is just as good, if not better. My only complaint is the hours. Depending on which site you check out, hours vary wildly. For example, Google has no hours. Yelp says they are open today until 4pm. But if I try to order online, I can't order until 7pm. (even if I want to pickup). And if I use seamless, delivery is the only option for 8:15pm. read more

Let me say that my over 30 minute drive to try out Dirty Glove was well worth it. After reading they serve Rib Tips- YES I'm from Chicago and midwestern Bar b q is definitely missing from here UNTIL I found this hidden jewel. The initial communication was amazing, I received responses right back and upon arriving my food was packed and ready alone with a "special sample package of chicken and soda". Their ribs are so tender, seasoned to perfection and the sauce is to die for, the chicken OMG amazing and that cheesy macaroni; YES indeed. Shout out to the staff and their professionalism as this will definitely be a weekly rotation for us. Thanks again And wishing you much success. read more

Caught em at a pop up!! And let me tell you, if you haven't tried Dirty Glove Midwest BBQ, you are really missing out on the best the Midwest has to offer down here in the south. Showed out with the best ribs I have ever eaten, so juicy and moist and tasty. Fresh green beans and some smoked chicken, made my family dinner the best dinner we have had in a long time. Thank you Dirty Glove!! We will be back for more!!! read more

Loveeeeeeeeeee their food and customer service!!!! I've had their ribs, chicken and sausage gumbo, fried chicken (which are both LIFE!!!! lol), brisket, brisket nachos lol I've had just about everything and they're always consistent with their taste. I highly recommend eating here! read more

Brent rocks! You can taste in the food how much he loves to cook. Highly recommended! read more

Very good brisket....I also got a sample of the gumbo and I must say it's probably the best I've had in a long time!!!!

Today was my 1st time visiting, and I was very impressed. I liked that they have a variety of food offerings in addition to bbq (seafood, wings, pasta, etc.) I tried the brisket, and it was so tender and moist. The sides were delicious. I will visit again to try other items. read more

Dirty Glove Midwest BBQ - My plate #yummy - American Near Me - Austin, Texas

I coordinate food events for a Fortune 500 Company and I've ordered from Dirty Glove BBQ twice now and I have over 100 people in agreement that this is the best BBQ they've ever had EVER. This is coming from people who have had the Franklin's, the La BBQ, the Style Switch (etc.) all the best BBQs in Austin. We've tried every meat and the mac is THE BOMB!!! I can't even put into words how amazing the food, the service and the people are. 5 STARS read more

I tried Dirty Glove BBQ for the first time and the food was AMAZING! The Brisket was my favorite... juicy, tender and FULL of flavor! I've eaten at a lot of BBQ places in TX and the food here easily ranks among the best of the best. Also, the owner Brent is pretty awesome and aims to please. You can literally taste the love that he puts into cooking his food. If you haven't tried this place yet.. what are you waiting for?? I can't wait to go back and try a few more items on the menu! read more

LOVE Brent's food! The ribs and sausage were grade A - and had the perfect amount of spice. You can tell Brent always wants to provide some quality food. It has been a while since I've had some great barbecue, so this was a blessing. Can't wait to try again!!! read more

Catered Dirty Glove for 75 employees and they delivered, on time, extremely well organized, food was all homemade, and extremely delicious!!  Dirty Glove brings in everything you need from napkins to ice tea.  Very professional team of guys that know how to BBQ!! read more

We ordered the brisket for $10, which came with a hearty portion of brisket, fries and a bun. The guy was friendly and polite and we are glad we came here. I feel it was a 9/10. As someone mentioned, this is a food truck, but to me, that makes it feel more "Austin-ish" and is okay with me. read more

Gets better every time. The brisket was amazing! Wings and sausage are awesome too!

I actually stumbled across this food truck while searching for the soul food truck. When I'm in ATX, I like to experience all that it has to offer and that means BBQ!! I opted for brisket, ribs and sausage. The amount of food and flavor both matched!! There was an abundance of both and I was not mad about it!! The owner also has a burger truck named The Hashburg! Did I order a burger? I'm glad you asked and the answer is most definitely! The burger was juicy and flavorful! Please come checkout both of these food trucks and you WON'T be DISAPPOINTED!!! The service was great!!! Here the people are not just business owners but they are family!!! read more

Brent has the best customer service anywhere! His food is of the same quality. Amazing ribs and brisket, throw some hot dogs in the mix and you have found a hidden gem in Austin. Also, Brent is a Detroit fan of any sport, so treat him accordingly, but his food speaks for itself ;) read more

This place is my slice of home in Texas! Being a Detroit native in Austin, it is hard to find homestyle favorites, but these guys give me that! I have had everything they serve and have NEVER been disappointed! The brisket is moist and flavorful, despite being a texas thing. The wings are perfectly smoked. The ribs are basted beautifully! They sell Faygo's and I heard, from Brent, they are working on BetterMaid chips. They are working on desserts and have some of the biggest, best chocolate chip cookies I have EVER had!!! :) read more

Same as another customer posted--didn't realize this was a food trailer in a really crummy and hard-to-find area. Plus, went there on a day and/or time they weren't open (expected to find a regular sit-down restaurant with more normal hours). We only tried to go cuz I'd bought a Groupon coupon. But coupon expires in a couple of days, so won't be trying again. read more
