    Red BBQ Sauce.
    DeWayne R.

    I've passed Feges BBQ a few times and finally decided to stop in when a serious BBQ craving hit. I brought my 16-year-old son along for the quest. It's a walk-up, order, and pay first type of setup. The place itself is nice and roomy, and the menu was pretty easy to interpret. My kid went with the sliced brisket sandwich and a side of seasoned fries. They offer a few sausage options--hot links, mild, and paprika--and I was pretty hyped to try the hot links. Unfortunately, they were out that day, and I later realized all of their sausages are pork-based anyway, which took a little wind out of my sails. So I pivoted and ordered lean brisket and smoked turkey with sides of Charro Beans and Spicy Korean Braised Greens. The brisket was tender and flavorful, exactly what you want from good Texas BBQ. The turkey was cooked just right and had a really nice smoky flavor. The Korean braised greens definitely slapped my mouth with a good kick of spice, which I appreciated. The Charro Beans also had a little heat to them, which made them more interesting than your typical BBQ beans. One small gripe: I wish restaurants would list the added ingredients in their bean dishes. Is it pork? Beef? Something else? Sure, I could ask--and if it were a serious concern, I would--but it's still a courtesy to guests who might forget to ask and have legitimate reasons for avoiding certain meats. They also had a trio of BBQ sauces: Texas Gold (mustard-based...not my thing), Alabama White (mayo-based...what even is happening there?), and Sweet Red. I'm old-school and stuck in my ways--give me something close to a classic red sauce and I'm happy. The Sweet Red delivered and paired nicely with the brisket. My son gave his sandwich a solid thumbs-up and said the seasoning on the fries was the cherry on top. All in all, the craving was satisfied and I got to try a new BBQ spot. That's always a good day.

    And we're back. Today we stumbled across Happy Hour which allowed us to try a few more things on the menu. The staff was friendly and helpful. This time the restaurant was a little busier. We ordered to go to take home to enjoy and the wait time was not bad at all. The sliced brisket sandwich was tasty and a great portion. (Not pictured) We also had the 2 meat plate with ribs and a side of elote salad and dirty rice. My son was disappointed that there were only 3 ribs on a double meat plate. The wings were tasty and a great price only $1 per wing during HH. The banana pudding was the perfect ending with a a generous portion size.

    I was looking for a best burger in Houston to try, and this place popped up several times during my search, so of course, like any normal human, we went to give it a try! And of course, like any normal Texan, we didn't only get the burger, but we got bbq too and nothing....I mean NOTHING...disappointed!!! The staff were awesome, super helpful and patient as our group of four decided what to do. We went with a family option that inlcuded Turkey, Sausage, Ribs, Wings and Brisket. It also came with 3 sides, bread and dessert! It was A LOT of food, but perfect for sharing between 4 people. The burger was definitely delicious, I see why people say it's great. The only thing I wish I had done was dipped it in ketchup to get the acidic taste that I was craving, but I was too excited to leave the table because of all the other food that was right in front of me! The turkey was a star of it's own, I'm not usually one to get turkey, ever, when I'm out and about, but this turkey slapped. It was juicy, tender, smokey, flavored beautifully. I was thoroughly surprised! The brisket and the ribs were so so so good. The meat on the ribs fell right off the bone, and was great with and without the sauce. The brisket had just the right amount of meat to fat ratio. I usually go the more lean route, but what they gave me worked just fine! The sausage I wasn't a huge fan of, but all my friends loved it. It's always a hit or miss for me, I think its just me! The sides we went with were the brussels, loaded potatoes and the mac and cheese. I wasn't sure on the mac, bc it was a pimento mac and cheese, but it was warm, creamy, gooey, and droolworthy. Super good. We also tried 2 different flavors of the wings. I'd say the wings needed a little more smoke time, because they were a little hard for me to eat, but the flavors were good, we chose two flavors that weren't spicy at all. Just the right amount of kick to be like...oooo! lol. Anywho, great patio space to sit out and enjoy the nice weather, it is shaded! They also had a kids play area you can just let them run around while you enjoy your meal. Definitely can't wait to come back and have some more food!

    Came here tonight after hearing about Feges BBQ being featured in Texas Monthly, and it definitely lived up to the hype. We ordered the brisket, a link of jalapeño cheese sausage, pork ribs, Brussels sprouts, fried okra, and a salad. Honestly, these were probably the best sides I've had at a BBQ spot--the Brussels and fried okra really stood out. Personally, I really enjoyed the sausage and pork ribs the most. The sausage had great flavor and a nice kick, and the ribs were tender and well-seasoned. The brisket was solid--definitely better than your average BBQ brisket and still very enjoyable. The setup is typical BBQ style: order at the counter and seat yourself. There's plenty of seating both inside and outside, and the place was filled with families, giving it a welcoming, neighborhood feel. It's clearly a family-friendly spot. The staff is quick and accommodating. If I lived in the area, this would absolutely be a regular stop for me. Great food, great atmosphere, and well worth checking out.

    Good option for BBQ. Spacious inside with plenty of seating and a good place to watch sports on the huge projectors. Employee at the front gave great recommendations. We tried the brisket, pork spare ribs, spicy sausage, and turkey. The turkey was moist and tender with good flavor. We also really liked the spare ribs - they had a nice glaze with just the right amount of sweetness, not too overbearing. Brisket was solid, and we found the sausage a bit dry. For sides, we did the gumbo, cornbread, Mac and cheese, and brussel sprouts. Gumbo was loaded with chicken and great, and the cornbread was excellent. Mac had a good bite and flavor from the pimento cheese. Brussels had too much vinaigrette which made it too sweet and soggy, would have been great if not for that. Overall a solid spot to get TX bbq with great sides. We hear the Tuesday family platters are a fantastic deal too!

    One BBQ at the time. Service and atmosphere: We received very good customer service. The ordering process was smooth and easy. The restaurant itself is modern and very well designed. They even offer outdoor playground for kids. Food and drinks: The menu was good and offered typical BBQ staples. Unfortunately, they run out of brisket. I ordered turkey and pulled pork with two sides ($22 combo plate). The turkey was very good. Great seasoning and it was moist. Pulled pork was okay. It was more on a dry side. It tasted better when combined with the signature sides. Chicken wings were juicy and were coated with good sauces. The sides of pickles and onions were okay. I enjoyed the spices but the pickles had skin that was too tough and the onions needed to be pickled longer. They offer variety of alcoholic beverages. Pricing: $$ - average, however, the portion of the two meats plate was pretty small for $22.

    Started initially as catering and pop-ups in 2012, Feges BBQ opened its first permanent location in 2018 in Greenway Plaza's food court. The second location opened in 2021 in this Spring Branch location, which we stopped by during a late afternoon Saturday. We found their offerings to be great, with emphasis on value and personalized service. My brother knows I really love happy hour (HH) menus, and discovered that Feges-Spring Branch is one of the few places that offers it on Saturdays. It has gotten numerous awards, including the coveted Texas Monthly 50 best BBQ joints in Texas. So even though all of us had already eaten lunch, he stopped by for dine-in during our drive back to his house in Humble. It wasn't too busy, so he had time to look at their HH menu and order a variety of things. You order and pay at the counter, and they will bring it out for you. Tori was the cashier/manager during our stay, and she was great: offering suggestions, making sure the discount for my brother's service was accounted for (the restaurant's founder is a veteran as well), and checking in on us during the meal. 20 Wings HH (a dollar a piece during happy hour) - chose three flavors of sweet bbq, sweet thai, lime red hot. My brother and nephew seemed to really enjoy them, decent size, with thick joint sticking glaze on the grilled wings. Chopped beef sandwich ($10); Pulled Pork sandwich (10): both on soft potato buns, they were both very good, little gristle, plenty of meat with smokey flavor. Bottles of coors light was $4 a piece, and went great with the meal. Pazole ($18) - this was highly recommended by Tori, so we got a large bowl. It had plenty of shredded chicken and hominy, with a very nuanced green broth. This was my favorite...couldn't finish more than half but took the rest home, and ate it while watching a movie later that night. There is a full, fresh condiment tray with sweet/hot pickles, fresh onions, pickled onions and pickled jalapenos. The choices of bbq sauces really added to the meal: reminded me of the four combo from Famous Dave's except a lot tastier. I especially liked the texas gold (tasted a lot like hot mustard sauce from Mickey D's) and the Sweet spicy vinegar sauce. It went great with both the pulled pork and chopped beef sandwiches...instead of putting it on the sandwich, I just dipped the whole sandwich in the sauce before every bite. Really good!

    Continuing my quest to try all the best BBQ in Texas, my recent quest brought me and my besties to Feges BBQ in Spring Branch. This is their main location, but they also have a small location in an office building in Greenway Plaza area. Feges has made the Texas Monthly Top 50 BBQ list multiple time as well as Thrillist and other top ranking lists. It sits on a corner of a shopping strip with lots of parking. We came at opening time on a Saturday. You just never know how the lines at these popular spots will be on a weekend, but the BBQ gods were on our side as the crowd were very light. Let me tell you, the customer service was outstanding. We wanted to try a bunch of things and the nice, young gal taking our order gave us the most cost effective way to do it and we ended up getting to try more things. Throughout our meal, the staff was checking on us regularly and asked if we needed anything. Shoutout to Henry for going above and beyond the whole time. Inside is nice and spacious with alot of seating. They have a small playground outside as well as a spacious patio. The weather was perfect so we sat outside. I've had Feges on my radar for awhile for BBQ, but recently I've been seeing stuff on social media about their burger as well. So we got the Feges Burger which is a smash burger and it came with two patties, American cheese, pickles, onions and sauce. For a BBQ spot, their burger was excellent. It also came with seasoned fries which were really good. For BBQ, we ended up with some sort of family meal deal. It came with 3 meats, 3 sides and a dessert of our choice. We went with brisket, turkey, pork ribs, chili jack sausage, loaded mash potatoes, sweet + spicy sprouts and pimento mac & cheese. First off, all the meats were good. The ribs and sausage were equally my favorites. The ribs had this delicious bark on it and the meat was fall off the bone tender. The sausage had a nice kick to it. The turkey was a surprise hit. It was probably some of the best turkey I've had at a BBQ spot. It was so juicy and flavorful. The brisket to me was just ok. It was cooked just right, but it didn't wow me. Next time I will make sure to ask for some moist brisket. The sides were all so good especially the sprouts. It was nice to get a bite of something green between all the other rich food we were eating. To round out our tasting, we got an order of their smoked wings as well. We got the hot red and sweet Thai flavors. I personally liked the wings alot. I typically like a crispy, fried wing, but they achieved that crisp while smoking it as well. I do wish the flavors were just a little more pronounced. To finish off our meal, we got the PB&J chocolate cake. I'm a sucker for peanut butter flavors anything and this cake delivered on that. The cake itself was nice and moist. Overall, Feges did not disappoint. I plan on bringing the fam out here really soon. It definitely sits high up on my all time favorite Houston BBQ spots.

    Feges BBQ, Houston, TX (pronounced Regis with an F in case anyone else was wondering. The owners last name! ) VisitingHouston; searched for a BBQ spot and stumbled upon this gem! We decided to go with 3 orders of 2 meats/2 sides ($21 each) + side of fries + desserts = $100 - so reasonable! Everything was A+++! Including the amazing service! Meats - Brisket 10/10, Pork ribs 10/10 Sides - Loaded mash, Brussels, Elote salad, Pimento mac & cheese, fries, all amazing! Salad - summer salad Desserts -Churro banana pudding, carrot cake, chocolate bread pudding, all big winners. Literally everything was delicious. The customer service was also phenomenal. The owner came by our table and spoke to us personally and corrected a dessert order issue that we had, giving us an extra dessert (thought we'd ordered carrot cake but chocolate bread pudding delivered instead. We didn't even ask, he just brought the carrot cake as soon as he saw our confusion.) We'll so definitely be back

    Based on the mixed reviews I was pleasantly surprised. Was it the best BBQ? Definitely not, but it got the job done. I was expecting the line to be outside the door but it was a steady crowd. The ambulance feels like a BBQ sports bar since they have several big screen TV's to watch the game. I decided to order their two meat plate. I wanted pork ribs but they were sold out around 12 noon, which is a little crazy because they open at 11am. So I went ahead and got the moist brisket, burnt ends and my two sides were the Mac and Cheese & bbq dirty rice. I also ordered their 10 piece wings, half red hot and half curry lime. My friend got the brisket sandwich. Let's start with the moist brisket, it was solid. Not the most tender but it wasn't dry. It was a dry rub but I wished they would've seasoned it with more salt. Brisket wasn't that fatty as I would've liked it, but I enjoyed it. The burnt ends were sweet, nicely glazed with I'm assuming it was some sort of maple syrup. Mac and Cheese was cheesy and creamy with a subtle pimento cheese flavor. I also like the noodles they used for the Mac. Dirty rice was fine but I'm not a fan of sweet dirty rice but understandable since it has bbq sauce mixed in. The wings were not bad, I think they smoke it to order. The curry lime was decent but there was no curry flavor just lime, curry could've been stronger. The red hot was not hot at all. It was mild with barely any sauce. I wouldn't order it again. My friend sandwich was fine but the bread could've been better in quality. Put that on a brioche bread and toast it with butter and you got yourself a good brisket sandwich. The bbq sauces were just sweet, I like mine spicy and tangy. The pickles were terrible, just sweet. Seems like this restaurant likes their food on the sweeter side. Overall, not bad at all. 3.5/5 stars for the food but I'll round it up to a 4 because the cashier was very nice and answered all of our questions. She made sure we were well taken care of. The restaurant has a nice lay out with good amount of seats separated from one another. Will I come back? Yes. Hopefully they have pork ribs next time.

    This is a solid Texas BBQ place. With all the local competition for good BBQ, I think this place will be around for a long time. I won't say it's the best of the best, but it stays competitive and I'll be coming back. Overall all the meats were great. I usually never give chicken or turkey a chance so I didn't go there. The brisket and sausage were great but I must say that Truth BBQ and Blood Brothers are slightly more impressive. I love their free sides like the pickles. I certainly helped myself to much of that. The paid sides like their Brussels sprouts were also quite delicious. You gotta give those a try. They are well- roasted and sweet. The service here is pretty good - not amazing, but the staff are friendly and they come by to clear your table trash often. It's somewhat self-service in that you get your own drink including refills. They do expect full tip despite the semi-self-service since they bring the food to your table. The ambiance is nice. Nothing too showy and definitely clean and decently spacious. It's also not too loud inside despite being pretty packed on a weekday for lunch. There is ample parking and lots of other restaurants and retail nearby. The Long Point / Bingle location isn't the fanciest, so just don't leave valuables in your car. I'll be back when I'm in the mood for some BBQ close by in Spring Branch.

    Happy hour 10 pcs wings
    Judy C.

    Food was average and diff tasting. Ordered the 2 meat + 2 sides plates x 2. The brisket was a bit dry. The pork ribs were great and tender and seasoned nicely (would get this again) and sausage was moist and flavorful. For sides, the sprouts were baked nicely, the elote was a cold version of it with all the fixings of cheese and seasoning, the corn bread was quite dry, even if you put the butter on it and the fries also lacked seasoning. Also got the 10 pcs happy hour wings ($10 for 10 wings deal). These were good great and tender. Got the Alabama and Sweet Thai flavor (this one was the better flavor). Plenty of seating indoors and even outdoors. Staff was nice and friendly. You can also ask for some slices of bread as complimentary. Wasn't a fan of the pickles. They weren't regular sour pickles, they were more on the sweeter side. Overall, would just come back for the pork ribs. Restrooms - clean Parking - Within the plaza

    First off we chose a Saturday to travel to Houston from lower Brazoria County to try Pinkerton's…read more We chose this Airline location because the other location didn't have Beef Ribs in their menu. I love chosing busy days and times to try a business, it shows what they can keep in stock, how well they know their community and busy hours. This location at 1:30 (the time we actually got to order) was not sold out of any item on their menu. What we ordered: - Beef Ribs - Glazed Pork Ribs - Sausage Link: regular and cheddar - Brisket (sliced) - Bacon Mac & Cheese - Potato Salad - Duck and Sausage Jambalaya - Peach Cobaker - Banana Pudding over all Review of the whole place, 10/10. Line was organized and had available water for the heat. Servers out to offer beer and water and to pass out menus and explain the process of how this place works. Servers inside were constantly cleaning tables and available to get to go boxes and lids if needed. The meat was literally fall off the bone tender and juicy. Everything was Smokey and flavored wonderfully. My number one: the Mac and cheese! I dont know something about an amazing side took me away. Most places can't do a mac the way i like it, but the cheese stayed moist and creamy and the noodles were tender. the flavor was phenomenal. all of the meats were tender and fall off the bone and juicy. I have no complaints About any bite I took! Other than maybe taking too many bites XD. Would absolutely recommend if your visiting the area or live near by, go get some excellent barbecue.

    The brisket was hands down the star of the meal, it literally melted in my mouth. It was so tender…read moreI could pull it apart with just my fork. Easily some of the best brisket I've ever had. They had run out of beef ribs, so we ended up getting the pork chop instead, and it was really good! The mac and cheese with bacon was rich, cheesy, and delicious. The potato salad was a huge surprise, I'm usually not a potato salad person, but this one was a solid 10/10. The only thing I wouldn't recommend was this French-style side (it looked like a giant turd ). It was a 0/10 for me. I took one bite and couldn't eat the rest. The peach cobbler was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it didn't really wow me compared to everything else. Overall, the food was incredible, especially the brisket. I'll definitely be coming back. 10/10, highly recommend!

    Hands down, the best BBQ I've had in Houston so far…read more Brisket is brisket- you either dry it out or you absolutely nail it. They nailed it. Perfectly juicy, tender, and packed with smoky flavor. But what really puts this place over the top is the tater tot casserole. Great sides can make the meal, and this one absolutely does. It's ridiculously good... like I'd happily eat an entire bowl of just the casserole. We ordered the brisket, pork ribs, beef rib, both sausages, and, of course, a whole lot of tater tot casserole. While you're waiting in line, they hand out samples of the brisket so you can decide whether you want lean or fatty. Fatty all day for me. The beef rib was massive and had an incredible smoky flavor, but low-key, I think the sausages ended up being my favorite meat of the day. They were juicy, flavorful, and didn't get overshadowed by everything else. We got there around 11:00 a.m. on a Saturday and waited about an hour in line. It sounds long, but they make it easy with water and drinks available for purchase while you wait. The staff was friendly the entire time- from the people managing the line to the servers and the bussers making rounds through the dining room. Whatever you do... don't skip the tater tot casserole

    The meat is very tender but didn't have any real smoke bite that I was looking for…read more And the bbq sauces are SOOOOOOO vinegary...the mustard was the only one worth using. The tater tot casserole was awesome, but am I really going to a bbq place for potato's?

A 2-year Michellin star BBQ joint was a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon. My friends and I got there around 10am and were lucky enough to grab a number. The number secures your spot in line but don't worry if you show up and they run out, there's a spot on the porch where the non-number line starts. We ordered moist brisket, garlic sausage, and the beef rib. For sides, we went with mac and cheese and beans. Everything was superb! The brisket melted in your mouth, no knife needed. The sausage had a nice snap to it and get great flavor. The bark on the beef rib was *chef's kiss*. The mac and cheese was creamy while the beans had a nice sweet and tangy flavor. The service is also great! While we were eating, staff would regularly check all of the tables to check if anyone needed anything. The staff taking our order also chatted with us about other BBQ spots we've been to. Everything was such a great experience and the quality of the food is 100/10!

I've passed by several times and the line has always deterred me, but this time I came with my game face and the patience of a saint. I arrived on a Friday at 11:03am to be exact. Yep, they open at 11am and yep there was already a line. I was shortly approached by an employee who handed me a paper menu and asked if I would like to purchase a drink while I wait in line. It was fairly hot outside but they had fans along the patio to give relief. The inside of the restaurant is not large but also not small, its first come first serve so get in where you fit in or opt to sit outside. I arrived to the front of the line around 12pm so it took about an hour of waiting in line. Ordering was smooth and it took no time for the food to be ready. Staff were friendly, and service was speedy. I ordered brisket(moist), pulled pork sandwich, mac n cheese, potato salad, beans, apple cobbler, and a baked potato. The potato salad was a pleasant surprise! It is not your traditional potato salad, but If you enjoy anything dill flavored, you'd love it! The brisket was moist and flavorful, melt in your mouth good!!! The other sides were just okay, not bad but nothing stood out. The cobbler was a bit too sweet and it did not seem as though the ingredients were mixed very well. It was like they dumped sugar on top and baked it without mixing it. Pulled pork sandwich was meaty and flavorful. Pretty good BBQ Experience!!!

Tasty food, friendly staff, and a welcoming atmosphere, what more can one ask for? We had two plates of brisket - half and half (lean and fatty) and chopped. Mac & cheese, potato salad, and creamed corn. And both types of puddings! The brisket was so tender and fell apart easily, which also went very well with the spicy bbq sauce. The chopped brisket was tasty too and went great with all the sides and the piece of bread. Everything was so good and to the point, which made it such a comfort food. If I really had to nitpick, I felt the potato in the potato salad was slightly underdone and crunchy, but not a big deal. Mac & cheese hit the spot and wow, the cream corn came out hot and was such a hit! The surprise standout for me was the banana pudding. It was perfectly sweet, delicious, and somehow didn't feel too heavy at all! I'm still craving it and wish I lived closer to this area just so I can swing by anytime. They also have a great assortment of beverages and a cute little souvenir stand. Definitely recommend!

    So I recently moved to the area and was surprised that there was such an infamous restaurant right…read morearound the corner. After doing my research and seeing food bloggers post online about this place, I decided to try it! We went on a Saturday afternoon at 2 pm - packed! There were no tables available inside and there were people inside and outside waiting for their orders. That's something to be ready for if you come on a Saturday. Our order didn't actually take that long. Or maybe it took a little while and we didn't mind waiting. Either way, it wasn't that bad! Luckily it's located in a shopping area so there's always parking. My main gripe is that they close at 7pm. I'm sure there's a good reason for that but I've wanted to try it multiple times before but they've been closed! I ended up going with the infamous brisket and fried rice. The brisket was super tender - I was able to pull it apart with my fork. I typically shy away from brisket because usually it's tough. But this was delicious - tender and had a nice smoky flavor. Not overwhelming or too salty. The rice had a great flavor too. There were chunks of meat in that as well and the rice had a nice smoky flavor. Not too salty or greasy. It also came with some accoutrements - pickled onions, fresh pickled cucumbers, jalapeños, bbq sauce and bread. The cucumbers and onions stole the show - very fresh and refreshing. We were surprised at the pickled onions - they were soo good! Overall - worth the hype! I'll definitely be back to try ribs, chicken or pulled pork sandwich. I heard everything is good here!!

To my surprise; fried rice was filled with extra brisket and chinese sausage! The pickle Jalapeño's were very tasty. Perhaps both the pickles and pickled Jalapeños are made in house. Only gripe that deducted a star would be the sitting arrangement. I mean there is only a handful of chairs available inside. They do have a spacious outdoor patio; but being almost 100 degrees outside it was not worth my sweat dripping down to the brisket making it saltier. Almost have to wait around and time it, until the next freed up seating is available. Don't recommend to bring young kids or large groups. If I was an angel investor, my money would go to them to expand to a larger location! Pains me to see large chain restaurants be able to afford such a large buildings and serve mediocre food. Eh hemmm.. Spring Creek Barbecue. Support local; Support H-town! Overall definitely worth a try!

    Killen's never disappoints…read more Their beef ribs were just short of amazing. Juicy, succulent, tender. For a giant piece of meat on the bone, they worked wonders. You can ask to see the piece of rib before they cut it for you and they will happily oblige (patrons behind you might not be so thrilled with that move, but they'll live). Sides were excellent as were the mashed potatoes with white gravy on the side, green beans that were just tender enough, but also a bit crunchy. Perfect. They were seasoned with pork, so if that's not your thing, you might want to skip it. We also ordered their shareable onion rings, easily enough for three people that were huge, hot, and crispy. Let's get this out of the way, some of their prices are a little up there, but if you're anything like me, and don't frequent BBQ places often, it's a rare but enjoyable treat. Sometimes you have to splurge and live a little. Also, they have their regular sauce on tables, but you now have to ask the cashier for their sublime coffee BBQ sauce. Don't be shy, ask. It's worth it. Oh, pro tip: If you want beef ribs, the 'plate' is actually cheaper and a better deal than 'by the pound', so save a little money and get two sides.

The restaurant is cute and they do their best to keep the service consistent throughout the entire visit. The BBQ was a little dry but good. The disappointing part of the trip were the sides. 95% of the sides had pork in them which made the entire wait not worth it. This was my first time visiting and it will be my last.

The counter service keeps things moving while the food speaks for itself. The brisket was exactly what you'd hope for: a pronounced bark, a rendered fat cap, and slices that held together until they were pulled apart. The surprise for me was the brisket taco. Instead of feeling like a gimmick, it showcased the meat in a different way, balancing smoke, richness, and fresh toppings without masking the brisket. Good barbecue restaurants know their sides matter just as much as the meat. The mac and cheese was creamy, the sausage had a satisfying snap, and the house barbecue sauce complemented rather than covered the smoke. If you're visiting Houston, this is the kind of place that reminds you why Texas barbecue has earned its reputation. Efficient counter service, excellent brisket, and enough menu variety to keep you coming back.

    I had been craving BBQ for a couple weeks and decided to give the pit room a try. My husband had…read morebeen here before for work and he enjoyed it so I decided to try! The environment is super cool, plenty of seating, a bar, private rooms, a dessert bar. I enjoyed the atmosphere, but the workers spoke Spanish to each other the whole time until it was time to check out, so there wasn't much engagement. Which lead to a mix up of my order that we had to fix. What we are all here for, the FOOD: Chicken: Very juicy, tender, basic chicken, a great portion. I was grossed out by the amount of blood under the skin. (I KNOW it's an animal with blood but I've never had bbq with that amount of blood on the meat) but I'm not penalizing them for it. Def 7/10! Brisket: Super tender, melted in the mouth, great taste. 8/10 Green beans: Not greasy, tender (not mushy or undercooked). I think they may have spilled the seasoning into the batch they main because holy moly, a TON of pepper and salt. I'm heavy handed with my seasonings but that amount didn't seem intentional. I'd never thought I'd say this but the flavor would've been great with less seasoning. 5/10 Mac&cheese: Nothing special but definitely better than most bbq spots. I enjoy the texture and light flavor 7/10 Elote: Yummy but where's the beloved cilantro?! 8/10 Cornbread: Great flavor, not dry, and had jalapeno peppers in it! Super yummy 9/10. My only thing too, they had only 2 bbq sauce options, a bourbon coffee and their house bbq. To me, they were not good at all. I was extremely disappointed in that. Other bbq spots have like 8 different bbq sauces
