    Very good barbecue. The prices are right also. The people who work here are extremely friendly and knowledgeable about their barbecue.

    A small town TX BBQ that can hold it's own! Passing through town for a late lunch / early dinner…read more We were greeted as the door opened! We had brisket plates. Fried okra and mac&cheese on one. The classic potato salad and hot pinto beans on the other. Brisket was tender and flavorful. Not dry. A good 8-8.5 points on the 10 point scale! The beans were a 8.5-9! Flavor, spice, texture were quite good. One would be surprised as how some place mess up beans. Potato salad was as good as any and exactly what one should expect. Fried okra was made to order! No soft heat lamp mush here. Flavor wise, it was also as one would expect of traditional fried okra. Mac&cheese was average flavor but good portion. Was ok. Nothing to rave on, yet no complaint. Simple/basis type so a little more pop to the recipe could be a good future tweak. Traditional onions, pickles, & jalapeños can be added to the plate if you like. Also sauce and bread available on the side counter to suit your needs. Overall, a great lil place to stop in! Didn't take a pic before starting to eat but this get the gist.

    As soon as you walk in you're greeted and made to feel welcome! This tiny town definitely has big…read morehearts that was on full display with all the coworkers and the local patrons that walked in known by name. The place itself is adorable and just what you'd expect from a CENTX BBQ joint, cute and plenty of country. Husband and I got 2 meat and 3 meat plates with all different meats and sides so we could try all they had to offer or at least a good majority of it. I will start by saying everything had great flavor, great bark, cooked well. We both thought if they could come up with a way to keep or serve fresher meat products they'd be much better. Luckily hubby asked for moist brisket when he caught a glimpse of the dried out looking lean brisket. The moist brisket gets a 3.0, tender juicy good flavor, good bark, more smoke outside than in. Turkey was good that wasn't too dry and good smoke flavor throughout but could have a bit more flavor on the outside, it gets a 3.0/5. Sausage was good, liked the course texture, smoked well, crisp outside a little dry 3.5/5. Ribs great bark good flavor, tender with a bite like it should have, too much smoke and dried out 3.0/5, pulled pork 2.5/5 dried out, decent smoke and flavor and good bark, just very dry. The sides: potato salad was good 3.5/5 very traditional for CenTX nothing above and beyond but a good standard. Beans could have been a little more tender and could have used a touch more salt but otherwise good flavors appreciated the smoky meaty quality and pepper, 3/5. Mac and cheese 2.5/5 it's basic think blue box with added cheese and cream, could definitely be better but not bad by any means. Fried okra, STOLE THE SHOW! 5/5 We seriously have never had better and that is truly saying something! We make, have eaten at MANY different places, and had grandmas that made cast iron fried okra...and still have not had better! Sorry Grandma! Do NOT skip the okra! I'd go back through the drive thru just for Okra, in fact I might just do that on the way back! Overall, this adorable small town gem is putting out decent CenTX BBQ. If you can manage to get it all fresher, it could truly be something worth driving for and writing about.

    Came for lunch after a morning of hiking at inks lake. Parking lot (in the back of the building)…read morewas busy so I was surprised to only see a couple of tables occupied. Menu is on the wall and you order and pay at the counter. We got 1lb of ribs which comes with 3-6 depending on their size, 1 side of green beans and 1 side of potato salad, and a sweet tea. Total was about $40 My husband said these were the best ribs he's ever eaten. They had the right amount of smoke, the meat was juicy and fell off the bone. They don't have a lot of seasoning so the smoke and rib flavor really shinned through. The greens beans were the thick kind with onions and butter. Would definitely return.

    My first time at Wingman Smoke House. It's a small unassuming restaurant that you might miss if…read moreyou weren't looking for it. Seems to be plenty of parking in the back and there is dining inside. I am not sure when they open, but when I got there just a little after 1pm on a Sunday, they had already sold out of the ribs. I ended up getting a pulled pork sandwich with a side of potato salad. Overall, I would say the pork was satisfactory, but I probably wouldn't order it again. The meat was very salty and I almost didn't finish it. There was quite a bit of fat with the meat. Topped with a few pickle chips but overall, pretty dry and again, way too salty. I will likely come back to try some ribs and brisket but I see I need to get there much earlier if I want that. The staff are nice. I was also shocked to see the prices. Someone posted a photo of their menu back in August 2024 (not even a year ago) but already the meat prices have doubled and in some... more than doubled.
