Hutchins BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - McKinney, Texas

I have been to this BBQ place twice and both times it was amazing. I am big on bbq and Hutchins has the best brisket I have ever had. Highly recommend ​ read more

Been in McKinney a long time and Hutchins is just part of the routine at this point. Whenever family visits from out of town this is where I take them, because it's the easiest way to show off what real Texas barbecue is supposed to taste like. The brisket is the reason I keep coming back. I usually go fatty, and it's got that dark peppery bark and stays so tender you barely need to chew it. I've eaten a lot of brisket around here over the years and theirs is still the one I measure everything else against. You cannot skip the Texas Twinkies either. It's a whole jalapeño stuffed with brisket and cream cheese, then wrapped in thick bacon, and it's every bit as ridiculous as it sounds in the best way. Grab a jalapeño cheddar sausage link and some mac and cheese on the side and you're set. The line can get long on weekends but it moves fast and it's worth the wait every time. If you live around here and somehow haven't been yet, you need to make a stop here! Ya'll won't regret it! read more

In a state overflowing with elite barbecue, I'd heard so much hype about Hutchins BBQ that it immediately became a must-try. Walking in, the first thing you notice is the crowd. You order first, then join everyone else in the hunt for a table. This place was absolutely PACKED. Fortunately, the line moved quickly, the staff kept things efficient, and we managed to snag a table inside. Now for the sticker shock. Expensive is an understatement. Our order included: * 1 Beef rib: $63.40 * 1/4 lb brisket: $10.40 * Cheddar jalapeño sausage: $9.60 * 1/4 Turkey slice: $7.44 * 1/4 lb pulled pork: $7.80 The prices definitely made me pause, but thankfully the food mostly delivered. The beef rib was outstanding--juicy, incredibly tender, with a beautiful bark and excellent seasoning. It was everything you'd hope for from Texas barbecue. The cheddar jalapeño sausage was one of the best I've ever had. Every bite was packed with melted cheddar and jalapeño, perfectly seasoned with an incredible snap. I'd order it again without hesitation. The pulled pork also exceeded my expectations. Oddly enough, it was served cold, but even so it was juicy, flavorful, and smoked nearly to perfection. Unfortunately, the brisket didn't live up to the reputation. It wasn't bad by any means, but in a state where brisket is king, this one was simply average. Likewise, the turkey was just okay, both were borderline dry and lacking the smoky flavor that separates good barbecue from great barbecue. The sides were solid. The mac and cheese was rich and cheesy without being particularly memorable. The green beans were surprisingly good, with a subtle sweetness that made them more interesting than your typical barbecue side. Then came one of Hutchins' best touches: complimentary banana pudding, peach cobbler, and soft-serve ice cream. The peach cobbler was phenomenal, honestly the best restaurant peach cobbler I've ever had. It arrived hot with a crisp, crunchy topping and a soft, fluffy interior bursting with peach flavor. Add a scoop of the complimentary vanilla soft serve, and it becomes an outstanding dessert. The banana pudding also exceeded my expectations. For a restaurant serving it complimentary, it's about as good as you could ask for, creamy, balanced, and incredibly satisfying. Overall, Hutchins absolutely earns its reputation as one of the better barbecue joints in Texas. While the brisket and turkey kept it from reaching that truly unforgettable, five-star level, the beef rib, sausage, pulled pork, and complimentary desserts made for a meal that's well worth experiencing at least once. If you're in the McKinney area, it's an easy recommendation just be prepared for the crowds and the prices. read more

Definitely worth the high ratings! I finally made my way here with my parents and sister on a Saturday around 1PM. The line was long as expected but it moved quickly. I wish I'd gotten the name of the gentlemen who was giving out samples by the bbq pits, he was super friendly, made some recommendations when he learned it was our first time and gave us nice sized samples of the regular and jalapeño cheddar sausage and the dino beef rib which was amazing by the way. Once inside, I ordered a chopped brisket sandwich, a texas twinkle, 1 hot link, mac and cheese and green beans. Chopped brisket sandwich: Nicely sized, packed with meat and delicious! The meat was tender, flavorful, no gristle or weird pieces throughout, highly recommended! Texas Twinkie: Succulent! Nothing else needs to be said, it was amazing. Hot link: Small but good flavor and had a nice kick of heat. Green beans were a little harder than i preferred but they had good flavor. Mac and cheese was really creamy, needed more flavor though. Ended the meal with a sample of the peach cobbler and banana pudding. The peach cobbler was ok but the banana pudding was pretty tasty and the chocolate cone was simple but good. Shout out to Paula who was working our area, she was so friendly and accommodating. Great experience, great food, definitely chaotic inside but I can't wait to return! read more

Hutchins BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - McKinney, Texas

We were told that this was one of the best bbq in town. We all wanted the brisket so we ordered the family pack. The brisket was good and just enough fat. The potato casserole was really good, was a little skeptical at first but it did not disappoint. The cream of corn and baked beans were fine. The meals come with all you can eat dessert: ice cream, bread pudding and peach cobbler. The ice cream was terrible. It was so bad that I had to throw it out. It not something I would call ice cream. My friends all enjoyed the banana pudding. read more

Was visiting Dallas for a concert. Tried this place for the first time. Lines are long so we got there around 1pm and didnt have to wait too long. The bbq is priced by weight, so it adds up. We got the pork ribs, brisket, a beef rib, cole slaw, sausage, texas twinke, green beans. Total with tip was 240$, the one beef rib was 67$! The brisket was excellent, the beef rib also. The pork ribs were so so, 6/10. Guess you stick with beef in TX. You do get a bunch of free sides like pickles etc and you get like free serve yourself peach cobbler. Service is fast and friendly. Glad I tried it, but I've had better in the area. read more

This place was actually recommended to us by a friend who had eaten here before, and I have to agree, it did not disappoint. It's called Hutchins Barbecue, and I'd say it's a must-visit if you're in the area! It's one of those spots where you order first and then go find a seat. There was a bit of a line when we got there, but it moved pretty quickly. It probably would've been even faster if we had known exactly what we wanted, but since it was our first time and we were a group, it took us a minute to decide. Also, the place was packed but it wasn't hard to find a table since there's plenty of seating. We got a family pack so we could try a little bit of everything.. brisket, pulled pork, mac and cheese, and potato casserole, and honestly every single bite was so good. I also got a Texas Twinkie, which is their version of a jalapeño popper, and that was amazing. Super smoky and so flavorful. I don't think I've ever had barbecue this good before! Also, bonus point, dessert is free if you dine in. They had banana pudding, peach cobbler, and soft serve ice cream. That might have been one of my favorite parts, not going to lie! read more

We were traveling in from Omaha, so we know good BBQ and Hutchins BBQ was honestly some of the best BBQ we have ever eaten. Everything was incredibly flavorful, perfectly cooked, and lived up to all the hype. The ribs were literally falling off the bone, and the brisket was so tender and full of flavor. The mac and cheese was out of this world, and the cream corn was also incredible. Every single thing we tried was delicious. Even with a line, it moved really quickly, and the whole experience was efficient and well organized. It was popping in there! Very good vibes. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful! The food was also very fairly priced for the quality and portions you get. One of the best surprises was that dessert is free if you dine in, which was such a nice bonus and the perfect way to end an amazing meal. I had the peach cobbler with ice cream for dessert and it was so good that I went back for seconds. If you're anywhere near the area and love BBQ, this place is a must-visit! read more

We hit Hutchins at exactly the right time - no line. This is a top BBQ / Smoked meat place. We got sliced brisket, chopped brisket, sliced turkey, Jalapeño Cheese sausage and then sides of mac &cheese, green beans, coleslaw and loaded potatoes.

Came here for lunch. They have a dine in or take option. You can build your our plate via pound of meat from their variety of selection, they give free sides, fountain drinks and dessert. The food by pound is on the pricer side especially when it's two regular size rib for 10$, one sausage $10 and $20 two slice of their signature cut. It was filling because I don't eat much but definitely more costly compare to other famous Texas bbq. The service was good. My server was extra attentive and helpful. The ambiance was rustic, country style and warm tone lighting. They have a parking lot outside. read more

First time at the McKinney location. I've been to the Frisco one and definitely one of my favorites.. The parking lot isn't that big but there is some street parking behind. Came around World Cup time... Weeknight 1 hour before closing and they ran of brisket. I was shocked!! So sad. There was a decent line too. It was busy! Got the family pack that feeds 4-6 for $96. This includes 2 lbs of meats and 3 sides. There is a footnote about limit of 1 lb of brisket and if you do 2 lbs of brisket then it's an extra charge. Got pulled pork, pork ribs, jalapeno cheddar sausage. Sides: broccoli slaw, jalapeno beans, mac and cheese. The sausage is not spicy and has good flavor. Favorite was the broccoli slaw. My problem with the meat was that it was very salty. I woke up in the middle of the night and was so thirsty. The beans were crazy salty too when I re heated left overs. The footnote is that I don't like not super salty taste in my food.. For 4 people this was a good serving but 2 of the people didn't eat that much to be fair... The plus side is self serve pickles, pickled onions, onions. And obviously the dessert with the banana pudding, soft serve, peach cobbler. The staff were good though and doing their best to keep it moving. They actually bus the table for you when you're done?? I think this is new.. but you could bus your own too. I would still recommend Hutchins to people but maybe try the Frisco location?? or idk if this was an off day. Obviously the brisket is the star too. read more

We celebrated my husband's birthday at Hutchins BBQ and had a really great experience. Even on a rainy Saturday afternoon, we only waited about 15-20 minutes in line, which wasn't bad at all. Inside is spacious, and we had no trouble finding a table for our group of 10. Our waitress, Megan, was incredibly kind and attentive. She and the team even sang happy birthday and surprised him with an ice cream cone, which made the day feel extra special. The food was very good overall. My favorite was the jalapeño pork sausage, it was full of flavor. The pork ribs were also delicious. The brisket was okay, not my top choice compared to the other meats. Portion sizes for the sides are generous. We tried the corn, coleslaw, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, and fries. The mashed potatoes were definitely the standout, and the coleslaw was also really good. The corn wasn't our favorite. Overall, we really enjoyed our time. read more

Finally made it out to Hutchins BBQ and yeah... I get the hype now. Got the brisket and it was honestly some of the best I've had -- super tender, good bark, not dry at all.

Hutchins BBQ - 11 am .... Just opened. Line formed outside already. On a Monday. - Barbeque Near Me - McKinney, Texas

We came here from out of town, and had an absolutely excellent meal! We ended up going with the family feast for four people, and this was plenty for our group of five, with a little bit of leftovers. The brisket was everyone's favorite, the pulled pork was excellent as well with much more flavor than I've had anywhere else! We loved the sides-- the mac & cheese was everyone's favorite as it had such a great flavor! One of the highlights of this place is the serve yourself dessert bar when you are dining in. We enjoyed multiple helpings of peach cobbler with their soft, serve ice cream, both of which were absolutely fantastic!! Ordering the food was kind of an assembly line set up, with employees dishing out servings. Everyone was friendly and fast, but we were disappointed that both types of ribs were sold out by the time we arrived. We were worried about finding a seat, as this place was absolutely packed on a Sunday evening! We were able to find a booth quickly, and they do have some outdoor seating as well. Definitely recommend stopping into the spot if you are anywhere close!! Many in our group said that this was the best barbecue they've ever had! read more

Love this place, hands down the best in DFW for everything they do. The amount of meats, sides and desserts they offer is unbeatable and ALL AMAZING!!! Yes, you can say at times other places have better this or that one item but how'd you like that 3 hour wait? And is it really better or are you just devouring the meat because of the hype and the wait? I can also guarantee you didn't get free dessert. Hutchins is the best, hands down, I'll die on that hill. Just wish they didn't change their green beans, the old ones were the best, new ones are not my favorite. I asked what happened to the old ones and they said these were preferred...BY WHO? We are there at least twice a month and I always get the green beans. I don't recall a vote, and only one time a couple months ago did they ever have both...they were handing out free samples of the new ones. Also, the new ones have some poultry broth or pieces, my wife has a poultry allergy and after one bite went and asked. Luckily it was a minor reaction but just wanted to let everyone know. read more

Wow! This was the best BBQ! The brisket was the perfect middle slice not all fat but not dry and lean! Fell apart didn't even need to cut it! The pork ribs are on the smaller size but the flavor of that rub was phenomenal!! The sausage had a super snappy casing which is my favorite! The creamed corn was my favorite side. We didn't try the Texas Twinkie but we definitely will have to next time we go! Also can't forget the free banana pudding and peach cobbler!!! read more

This is the best bbq I have had. Been doing some smoking of my own and I can really appreciate what they are doing there. You don't need sauce, the meat has plenty of flavor and smoke on its own. Great bark on this bbq. You also get a full condiment bar and free dessert if you eat in. Take some pickles , onions and bread. Ask for the pit tour, the manager and Russell were very kind and gave a great information about the operation and showed us around. This place is ran like a bbq naval battleship. Extremely precise and impressive operation. I could go into depth but not sure you would care. The ambiance is southern and feels nice and American. You can eat inside or outside. Even if there is a long line don't worry because there is plenty of seating. You want bomb bbq come here , get the tour. read more

The meats were all so flavorful and smoked to perfection, the mac n cheese, mashed potatoes were no less - they paired so well together.

I couldn't find anything negative about the place! It was our first visit here. We looked it up on Yelp and made our decision fast! Very neat and clean outside upon entering. Walking inside it was also clean and smelled wonderfully! We took our time ordering and were not rushed even though there was a line. We choose to get brisket and turkey. As well as some sides. After we paid we headed to get our drinks, I unfortunately saw it first thing--- free dessert! Omg! Free banana pudding or peach cobbler. Wow! And let me tell you everything we had was so amazing. Brisket was so moist and I was able to cut it with a plastic fork. Turkey was great but not as good as the brisket. We will definitely be going back next time we are in the area. It's expensive but well worth it! read more

New Year's Day Lunch at Hutchins hit the spot! Stars of the show were the pork ribs, jalapeño sausage and okra! The brisket is good but has a layer of fat. Easy to get around the fat and it's seasoned well. Mac & Cheese was good but the kids didn't like the hard bits, (I think it was bacon.) Potato casserole was smooth, priced well but could have used some chives or green onions. (Definitely Skip on the $3.89 fountain drinks & $1.50 bag of chips. ) I wasn't a fan of the $60 beef rib ($39.99 lb) but the hubs liked it. Jalapeño pinto bean & chicken are good but not spectacular. Kids enjoyed the peach cobbler and ice cream. The restaurant is run well, line went quickly, no shortage of staff and never saw a table sit more than a minute before it was cleaned and ready to go. Atmosphere is a tad nicer than I was expecting. You're still going to smell like you are wearing BBQ perfume when you leave but the air was moving and it wasn't hot. read more

For dessert tried their vanilla ice cream, banana pudding, and peach. My favorites were the brisket, banana pudding, and their vanilla ice cream. read more

Solid place for lunch--and apparently very solid, judging by the line that was wrapped out the door at 1:30 PM. On our way home to OK, I'd been told more than once, "You've gotta try Hutchins," so we made a slight detour to McKinney. No rush, full optimism, empty stomach. The line didn't scare me. I just told my wife to keep an eye on me as I approached the door and join me when I got close--she has a bad knee and standing for long periods isn't her thing. Teamwork. Here's where things took a turn: as soon as we started looking at the menu--ribs, pulled pork, sides calling my name--my wife suddenly "wasn't hungry." Absolute buzzkill. I was mentally prepared for BBQ greatness, not a solo mission. After some internal debate (and mild heartbreak), I spotted a workaround: sliced brisket sandwich, potato salad, and brisket beans. Strategic ordering--she doesn't eat those sides, so sharing was officially off the table. The brisket was excellent, and I capped it off with banana pudding, which was downright delicious. There was an ice cream machine too, but I showed some restraint... this time. Next visit, I'm hoping she brings an appetite, because this place is absolutely worth it--even if the line stretches out the door. read more

This spot is one of the top spots for Texas-style BBQ in the DFW metroplex and in Texas in general for a reason since the brisket was flavorful, mouth-watering, and tender and one of the few spots that are over 7 days a week. The downside was that the meat was expensive, but the quality was worth it. There's even a complimentary self-serve bar for banana pudding, peach cobbler, and ice cream for dine-in (extra charge for to-go), along with a self-serve bar for condiments, bread, and pickles.

Hutchins is one of our top favorite Dallas area BBQ restaurants. Our past visits have been to the Frisco location, and this time we headed to their original in McKinney. The ambiance has the same looks/feel and the menu is identical. The food was outstanding and the service was great. While we love their meats (e.g. brisket, turkey pulled pork and sausages), we LOVE their Texas Twinkies. While other places offer them, Hutchins by far has the best (both in size and flavor).

I went to Hutchins BBQ thinking I'd grab a quick bite. What actually happened felt... intimate. The pork ribs arrived first--glistening, smoky, practically begging for attention. One touch, and they gave in completely. No resistance. Just tender, juicy surrender. I leaned in, and suddenly it was just me and those ribs, no distractions, no dignity left. The kind of experience where you stop caring who's watching. Then the mac and cheese. Soft. Creamy. Rich in a way that feels almost too indulgent. It coats everything slowly, deliberately... like it knows exactly how to linger. Each bite deeper than the last. I didn't rush it. You don't rush something like that. The green beans surprised me. They had bite. Confidence. A little snap that kept things interesting--like a playful contrast to everything else melting around me. Not innocent. Not at all. And then... the tangy pork sauce. Sweet, smoky, just enough sharpness to make you react. I dipped once. Then again. Then I stopped pretending I had any self-control. It clung to everything in the best way--bold, unapologetic, unforgettable. By the time I thought I was completely undone... they handed me free banana pudding. Cool. Smooth. Soft in all the right ways. A gentle finish after everything that came before. I slowed down. Let it linger. Didn't want it to end. I left full... flushed... slightly overwhelmed. Hutchins isn't just BBQ. It's an experience you feel in your whole body. read more

The line moved quickly and the team cutting meat was very friendly and talkative. I got the sliced brisket, sauced chopped bbq, and original sausage with okra and potato salad. They did everything to perfection and the sides are old school: not tryin to get fancy just making the potato salad like mom and grandma. One piece of advice to The Hutchins BbQ team: throw the sauce away, your bbq doesn't need it. It's very moist and flavorful. If somebody puts sauce on this bbq it's because they like sauce and don't like bbq. read more
