    Fat Boy's Brisket
    George S.

    I am a big fan of their brisket! They regular and lean. Either is cooked over night and has a thin crust! I love that you can buy quantities you need for family dinner! Super nice people! Sit down or carry out! Plenty of parking and a drive through window.

    Closed during normal hours.

    Closed. No explanation. What more can I say? Wasted time and fuel to come somewhere that is supposed to be open.

    Brisket sandwich.

    Okay it's my Friday. My weekend off. Wanted some tasty,savory fare. I've driven past this spot the ENTIRE three years I've lived here. Went to cleaners, 7-11,around the way to Hobby Lobby and Staples. And way too many trips to the bank. I've yet to stop. Even looked it up a time or two. But have I stopped-- H*LL NO!! I'm so dang mad. I've failed in my sworn oath as a Yelp reviewer. Y'all should take back my card ... if we had cards. Smite my black soul for missing this place. What ordered: Greens - tender, salted perfectly, nice bits of smoky meat, hint of bite. Mmmmmm Potatoe salad: Dang my sister law throws down on this. And to Claudia when you don't feel like making it call me, I'm stopping by here to get it. It's so fresh the celery is crunchy. A little swerve to the left with mustard and a curve to the right with perfectly tender chunks of potato. Brisket sandwich : Okay this sandwich is cold. And DAMN it's still good. Meat is seasoned to the core. Bark is deep into the slice, the sauce is lightly sweetened, onion/pickles provide snap, crunch, vinegary. Just enough fat cap to add to the satisfying smoke. I'm so mad, so many bites wasted at lessor restaurants. I'm so glad they are six minutes from my job. Fat Boys I'm gonna see y'all next week. Oh they have inside seating. Some other sides but my heart wanted what my heart wanted. Y'all try the other stuff let me know how it was. I've got my perfect three!!!!! Update: Okay, I confess, shame has overtaken me. I've been back to Fat Boys. Once I found out they were closed on the weekends,a monkey jumped on my back. I plan my stop, before work during the week. Today is Friday. I bought three sandwiches, large greens, large potatoe salad and first time green beans. But you know what, I got a sandwich from there yesterday, with greens and potatoe salad. Do you see a pattern happening. These greens and beans are so full of homemade comfort. I feel my mama hugging me. Shameful display of "love their food"itis. On top of that they working on a pork belly. Hell they could of given me that in a dang sandwich. The worse part I work five minutes away--- and feel my whole check slipping through my fingers. Even worse--I'm giving it with a smile!! The withdrawal is gonna kill me....

All of the staff was friendly and service was pretty quick! The sides were incredible as well as the meats.

    Milller's Smokehouse serves up some killer smash burgers!…read more My family enjoys hunting for great Texas BBQ. We have completed the 2017 and 2021 TX Monthly Top 50 BBQ list. We started the 2025 list and we are more than half-way through the list as of June 2026. Heading to the spots in West Texas takes some logistical planning, patience, and lots of gas for the drive from the Texas Gulf Coast. On our recent BBQ quest to West Texas,we drove home via Fort Worth from Amarillo with our eyes set on hitting one of the most consistent BBQ joints in Central Texas, Miller's Smokehouse in Belton, TX. This was our fourth time to visit Miller's. Unfortunately, Miller's Smokehouse had a surprise overnight fire late February 2026. That hasn't stopped them from feeding the community great food from a mobile trailer. They had an abbreviated menu of the BBQ staples like brisket, chicken, pulled pork, pork steaks, and St. Louis Style Ribs, and assorted sandwiches and sides. Generally, I'm a Texas Trinity traditionalist. But we he had our fill of brisket, ribs, and sausage on our West Texas journey. Instead, we jumped at the Smash Burgers! First time for us and they made a favorable impression. My wife had the Single Smash. My son and I had the Double Smash. Of course we had to try the tallow Fries. Wow! Homemade buns, oversized patties, cheese, with a smattering of pickles and burger sauce. We destroyed those burgers. Compliments to the kitchen staff cooking up some great food. The tallow Fries, seasoned with just the right amount of salt were a perfect crisp while being soft in the center. Don't cheat yourself - try the Fries. We arrived around noon and there was a very short line at that time. Parking is easy with ample parallel parking and free lots close by. The staff took good care of us. It was a bit warm but they had shaded picnic table seating with plenty of fly fans at the table to keep the critters from buzzing to nibble at your food. Before we left, we inquired about nearby restrooms to wash-up before we got back on the road. We were directed across the street to Muscovy Coffee Roasters across the street. It turns out that Muscovy is Miller's upscale sister coffee house that opened days before the February fire. I could not help but notice the spacious seating area that was packed. Nor the rich roasted coffee wafting through the air. They also serve an interesting menu of breakfast items and homemade Kolaches. Got to go back for coffee and Kolaches next time. By the way, the restrooms were Buc-ee's clean+. This is the fourth time we visited Miller's Smokehouse. Hat's off to the pitmasters and staff at Miller's Smokehouse for their perseverance. We'll be back after they open the revitalized restaurant. Hoping to meet Dusty the next time.

They recently placed as the #1 BBQ spot in Texas for 2026, so of course I had to swing by. We came around 1 or 2 pm on a Saturday, and there was barely any wait to order our food. I got the beef rib, the brisket, the poblano jack sausage, potato salad, and the mac and cheese. By far, the beef rib was PHENOMENAL! Juicy, melty fatty, and easily able to tear off pieces with just a plastic fork alone. This was perfection. The brisket, I wish that I had specified that we wanted moist fatty, as I think that we were just given the leaner cut of the meat, but regardless still good! Poblano jack sausage was cheesy and tasty as well! After you order your meat, you order your sides, and I really liked the potato salad and mac. Both were great! Onions, pickles, and bread were all complimentary, and you could get as much as you wanted. I also greatly preferred the spicy bbq sauce than their normal. The interior of the restaruant is homey and country-style. Also loved their selection of sweet teas and sodas! Glad that this place is so close to home!

The standout was the sausage sandwich. We opted for a spicy sausage, and it was delicious. The brisket birria taco was tasty, although it was about $11 just for one taco, which we did not expect. We thought it would come with more. I read good things about the Mexican street corn, but it was too creamy and had a burnt taste. The first few bites were good, but it then became cumbersome for two people to finish. The medium container was huge. I spent two days eating the leftovers and ended up throwing it away because I couldn't stomach it anymore. We also wanted mac and cheese as a side, but they were almost out, and it looked really liquidy.

The taste of this meat concoction makes Ronald McDonald, Wendy & The King shrink back into a hole so deep you'll ask, what's that? Dare I say it? .... even Whataburger will bow down to this one. This isn't an average patty. This is absolute max on taste, texture, & thoughtful composition. Nothing over the top or overdone. Simple & really, just masterfully put together & toting that perfect smoked flavor. That nice bun holds it all stacked without slipping for the just-right & complete bite. Combos are simple with chips & canned soda. Plenty of room to sit inside the cool A/C out of the wind & heat. That's all you need really because this burger is THE SHOW the tongue & your hunger is dying to get. This ain't fast food & you're going to tell everyone you know, guaranteed. GO get you one, FRIDAYS only at the moment. But one day Pustka Family, this is going to be your daily banger!! I know they put out the 'cue but everyone around me that got something other than this burger was honestly jealous. That sausage y'all ..... there's a reason this joint made the honorable mention Top Texas 100 BBQ (the top 50 is coveted) & this is it. The flavor & oozy cheese just pops outta that juicy, snappy skin eliciting spicy goodness like nothing else ever could. Doesn't even NEED sauce. Just by itself can render your palate wild. I KID YOU NOT. Don't miss that one & it serves as a perfect side to the burger I had. Absolutely, fast, friendly & kind service by gentleman who essentially could be your favorite neighbor. They're definitely pushing out Temple's finest BBQ. I mean I just can't think of anyone else.... wait, sorry Best Quality, they got you beat for now. Even if there were 15 other joints in town, they AIN'T beating this meal right here. Just get here already Friday & get there before they sell out. You can't drool forever. Get satisfied 'Dustin' the bottom of your plate & you'll be dreaming about this one a long time, 'Mark' my words!! Update: Sadly, Yelp can't keep the pictures loaded properly for prior & current review, they lost them and my captions. So I had to add them again all in this one. Dunno!??

My mind said, "yo, we can do this!" My body said, "stupid, just get delivery and pay the $5.99 delivery charge." This place is always on point. I just recently gave a whole bag of plastic "Smokey Mo's"cutlery to my folks to use during their RV travels from here. (I will say that once I received a tiny malnourished potato reminiscent of a potato from the Cold War. I took the survey and immediately received a tater on them. There are also some general frustrating aspects of the app. There was a huge delay in notification that the order was accepted. That gave my mind the idea that I could totally go in and pick up the tater. #patienceisavirtue) I literally crave this baked potato and they hooked it up. Thank you. This made my day!

The brisket was not as tender as I expected, particularly from a restaurant that highlights brisket as a specialty. The pork ribs were even less tender, the meat was difficult to pull off the bone. The mac & cheese was ok, but the flavor was not good enough to compensate for it being lukewarm. Moreover, everything was a bit too dry for my taste. It wasn't bad, it just didn't quite hit the level of expectation I had for a BBQ restaurant in this price point. I'd rather pay a little more and receive a much higher quality product.
