My husband stopped by after being in the area and seeing a few facebook pages recommending this place. It's a food truck, and they have a few picnic tables off to the side that you can sit on. I do wish they were covered as it would make it a little nicer, but I'm not sure if they can control that beings that it's in a strip mall parking lot type situation. Regardless of that, food was PHENOMENAL 10/10 OH MY GOD! MOUTHWATERING BBQ! First of all... THAT POTATO SALAD WAS THE BEST IVE EVER HAD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. You better get it if you are a potato salad lover like myself. I bought more just so I could have left overs at home. The Mac & Cheese? Chefs kiss! The turkey????????? Are you kidding me?! The BEST I've ever had!! So freaking juicy and easy! Not dry at all! The brisket, sausage, and Jalepeno cheddar sausage were all very good too! The turkey really knocked it out of the park for me. I will dream about that turkey probably for a while..... Also the Banana Carmel pudding absolutely LOVED this one too! Im from North Austin but I truly can't wait to come back. The line thankfully wasn't crazy when I got there! read more

Kelly's Hill Country BBQ in Wimberley is absolutely worth the drive. We came in hungry and left genuinely impressed. I had the Turkey Texan taco, which was incredibly flavorful, perfectly smoked, and topped in a way that balanced freshness with that rich Hill Country BBQ depth. My companion ordered the brisket taco and couldn't stop talking about it -- tender, juicy, and packed with that melt-in-your-mouth quality you hope for but rarely get. She said the food alone was worth the hour drive, and I completely agree. This isn't just good BBQ -- this is Top Chef-level quality. You can taste the care in the seasoning, the smoke, and the execution. If you're anywhere near Wimberley (or even if you're not), put Kelly's on your must-visit list. We'll absolutely be back. read more

The tacos was on point, I love the friendly service, I even love the location. Kinda a hidden gym across from a laundromat! Passed thru here on my way to the cabins. Definitely looking forward to coming back. Jeff Houston, TX read more

I have got to say that this is my favorite incarnation of Kelly's BBQ. The owner/team have been in various locals/facilities/versions over the years and his mastery of the art of BBQ has reached a phenomenal height. I have to say that he/they have gotten to the excellent category. Not only that but what I love is the enthusiasm & customer focus of the crew when they serve you. That's a sign of a well engaged and well led team. Well done to all the folks in that food truck dishing out wonderful food. I have been there several times and I am unashamed in saying I'm addicted to the Wimbo. Long ago I switched my BBQ sampling technique. I now go with whatever bbq mixed sandwich and I'm able to sample everything a place has without going into a food coma. The Wimbo is a GINORMOUS mix of brisket and sausage with their sauce. What else can I want? Or better, what else can I consume?? It is a lot of food and I've already raved at how good it is. Pro-Tip: The parking gets wonky as everyone tries to dive into the first spot. The way the horseshoe lot is designed is that you first have to drive thru the crowds waiting for food, so just be careful and weave thru them. Plenty of parking beyond the food! read more

Kelly's Hill Country BBQ - The Wimbo sandwich for the win! BBQ and Sausage and sauce. It's ginormous. - Barbeque Near Me - Wimberley, Texas

This place has it going on. The loaded baked potato is good for three meals. The smoked turkey is so yummy. The ribs are melt in your mouth. They deserve your business. read more

Think a food truck can't have the BEST BBQ?! Think again! Kell't's has the best bbq in Wimberley hands down! Try the pork belly!

Multiple kinds of killer barbecue with great people. Great sides and sauce. The only Brussel sprouts l will ever eat! This is a large food truck experience worth trying! read more

This is THE spot for BBQ in Wimberley. Try the brisket tacos for an excellent example of this dish. The "Wimbo" is big enough for two & twice as good, with brisket & sausage, both. Go early because they sell out at lunch. read more

The barbecue is adequate, but 90% of the time they are completely out of anything I have a craving for. It's a bit disappointing, so much so that I'm seeking out other Bbq alternatives ... read more

Great BBQ, loved the sloppy sow with the apple pecan slaw and chared peach sauce. The owner and staff are very nice as well. read more

My friends have been talking about Kelly's for a few weeks so we finally checked it out Saturday. We placed it ahead of time (phone) knowing it was a holiday weekend. Everything was really good. Brisket was my personal fave even though it was very seasoned and almost too salty for my fiance. The sprouts and andouille sausage were also tasty as was the turkey and ribs. Nothing I didn't really enjoy which is unusual. We'll definitely be back! read more

This is a food truck. We went one hour before it closed. Like any other barbecue place, they run out of food. I wasn't as hungry and ordered only two sides, but my friends ordered the different meats available. I am not sure if my friends are picky, or if they were just tired and grumpy, but they didn't really think the food was outstanding. They feel like the meat could have been from a grocery store barbecue place. They did like the barbecue sauce. I had the brussels sprouts with bacon. The side items were a good size for a personal size order. The brussels sprouts was delicious. The Potato salad was OK. Maybe I just don't like the smoky flavor. I know there was a mishap with our order, but it got cleared up pretty quick. The staff was friendly. They sell bottled drinks. They have parking available and a little sitting area in case you want to eat there. read more

Definitely legit Texas bbq! I've been to several of the top bbq places in Texas so I had to try this place as I saw it was on a top 50 in Texas website. It definitely did not disappoint! The pulled pork was possibly the best I have ever had. The turkey and brisket were great, but I've had better at other top bbq places. They were out of ribs when I went so I didn't get to try those. The potato salad was the best side but all sides were good. The bottom line is everything here is amazing and a MUST TRY if you are in the area. read more

Kelly's is without a doubt the absolute BEST BBQ Available in Wimberley! Now, don't get me wrong, you will not go wrong with either of our great BBQ choices here, however (as with many dining choices here) trying to find them open may be a challenge, as both have very limited hours (some of this is related to the nature of making BBQ). For both, that means it's best to check to make sure you're going on a day they're open, and for Kelly's- it's best to get there between 11am and 1pm... after that, well - they may start running out of this or that. And, if you want some of their absolutely great pork belly (think thick BBQ bacon candy), that's pretty much just a Friday, Saturday thing & they often sell out quickly (in my experience; however.... if you're not of cholesterol medication, yes, you should try it! though you might have to apologize to your cardiologist). I've had BBQ from several places on the Texas Monthly Top50 list, and in my humble opinion- Kelly's absolute beats several of them, but it's probably just their size which is keeping them from getting a visit; however- it shouldn't keep you from visiting, and you can tell them in person what your vote would be. read more

Wings for NYE were amazing. Sandwiches are also consistently amazing. Lucky to have Kelly's BBQ here! Chef's kiss!

This is my favorite BBQ in Texas & I've driven to most of them. The service is always pleasant and timely. They appreciate cash and I love to give a generous tip. I've learned to call my order in just after 11:00 and my order is ready when I get there. Not a huge line at 11:30. There are picnic tables in the shade but I buy more than I can eat so I take it home. My absolute favorite is the Pork Belly only available on Friday and Saturday. It's total meat candy. Reheats beautifully in the air fryer. It's my indulgence treat for the weekend. My husband likes the Chango Tacos. All food is beautiful and tastes divine. The staff are friendly and efficient. I just love this place! No more long drives for me. 10 out of 5 stars! read more

Brisket & chopped beef sandwich are always very good. Availability of some items is kind of "hit or miss", depending on time of day. I do miss the former "brick & mortar" location. It's a food truck/trailer, with limited outdoor seating. I don't think that I've ever actually eaten it there. Counter service always seems happy & helpful. read more

Great food, great service. Kelly has some of the greatest bar-b-q, I have ever eaten.

Fuck this place, we drove here from Dallas and they're not taking orders. Thanks for putting it on the website assholes, and it's a food truck. Fail fail fail read more

Stopped here for lunch during the week. Good grub! Typical pricing for bbq these days, so not cheap but good enough to pass the test. Had the potato salad (good but not outstanding) and apple pecan coleslaw (very yum) ; picked the sliced brisket and it was on point! Had a small portion of the jalapeño cheddar sausage and it was good but nothing really to brag about (did have a nice kick). Truck park is clean and shaded so that's a plus as well. Service was friendly as well. Definitely recommend this place when in Wimberley! read more

The brisket is ssssoooo tender. Melts in your mouth. Also tried the brussel sprouts. Really yummy.

Great food and service. Texas Monthly knows barbecue- check their reviews. I wish they would move to Dripping Springs.

simply THE BEST quality! always fresh, always juicy, never dry or reheated like the supposed "competition" in town... read more

The absolute best BBQ! Let me tell you about the spare ribs (special Sat only)- falling off the bone and so juicy and smokey. The sauce/rub on the ribs was perfect with a bit of sweetness. We also got the brisket, mix of lean and moist. So so tender with a flavorful rub. We didn't need BBQ sauce or the hot BBQ sauces for anything because it tasted so good as is. Mac & cheese was also bomb! read more

I don't usually like food trucks. BUT their bbq is awesome. I even ate bacon wrapped bbq quail and was surprised how delicious it was. Their brisket sandwich was full of meat. Their potato salad is a mayonnaise based salad and I prefer mustard but it was good too. read more

Best brisket I've ever had. Perfectly cooked and seasoned. Believe me, as a 50yr old native Texan I have had a lot of brisket and gone to my share of Rodeo cookouts, and bbq legends like Franklin's, Killen's, etc. Just amazing food. read more

Best bbq around and great portions and sides. Wish it was a restaurant but the breakfast tacos are awesome and so is everything else. Drooling just thinking about it. read more

I'm a pool guy, and pass by this place a lot at the end of my week. Finally decided to stop after getting tired of gas station foods, and HEB. Absolutely great boudin, wonderful brisket, quick at service and you get your food fast. Nothing less that a five star! Great place to quickly stop, pick up food and eat as you're moving around town ! read more

We were visiting Wimberly for a few days . Saturday we wanted a quick bite to eat, but away from the crowds. Our son recommended Kelley's. We lucked out, the line was short, but getting busy. We ordered a pulled pork sandwich, wich had a generous amount of meat which made two lunches for us. It tasted great . I ordered the pork belly tacos with coleslaw with their special sauce. What a different treat from a barbecue resturant . The tacos were delicious. The great food was worth the short wait. We saw the picnic tables but opted to eat in our vehicle. I really enjoyed talking with the faithful locals waiting for our food. read more

The barbecue items have always been delicious for the years we have been buying them! Today I tried the bacon Brussel sprouts for the first time and I am NOT a fan, but these were seriously delicious! My kids can't believe that I ate more than one! The apple, pecan slaw was good as well. The staff are always helpful and we'll keep returning. read more

We were fortunate enough to have Kelly's Hill Country Barbecue out of Wimberley to cater our dinner party for 48 guests Saturday, at our home at 7R Ranch. We were truly pleased with the delicious Brisket, Racks of Ribs, Pork Belly's and for appetizers, bacon wrapped quail. Yum. Sides were cole slaw and potatoes salad, unlike any I've ever tasted. A few of the guests comments were: "The bbq was terrific, as well as the presentation!" "You knocked it our if the park tonight and the food was amazing." "...the food was fabulous and we would definitely do it again." We definitely pleased the crowd and will drive 4 hours again to pick up his bbq. read more

Excellent BBQ. This is why they were mentioned in the last Texas Monthly BBQ review issue. Everything we have tried has been at least very good. It is too bad that they no longer have the sit down restaurant and have only the trailer. They are much better than either Pig Pen BBQ or Railroad BBQ in Dripping Springs and it is well worth the drive from Dripping Springs to Wimberley. Both of the Dripping Springs restaurants are fairly average read more

We've been eating Kelly's BBQ for years. It's a staple in our home! Whether for an easy weeknight dinner or a big event, we know Kelly's will always please the crowd. The flavors are spot on. Our favorites are the ribs and sausage. They're outstanding! Call ahead or get there early. They sell out fast! read more

Brisket was a little too tough, but had a really good flavor. Pulled pork was the best thing we tried. Brussel Sprouts had too much of a smoke flavor for our liking. Would return for sure. read more

Was in Wimberley for a wedding. It was my first time in Texas, and was eager to try as much BBQ as possible. The first day we drove past unaware this place existed. It was closed. The day of the wedding (Saturday) I saw that it was open. I sped into the parking lot, for what was the best BBQ experience I've had. The Brisket was absolutely perfect, along with the Jalapeño Cheddar sausage, and the Pork Belly Bites. I worked at BBQ restaurant for years, and my understanding of quality food has changed. I plan to comeback within a year to Texas, and this will be the first place I visit! read more

Went to Kellys on Saturday for Rib day. The ribs were delicious and my Ol lady loves the slaw there. This is a must visit food truck in the hill country. Brisket was so tender. Worth the drive to Wimberley to taste pure deliciousness. Will be back!!! Great job Kelly's! read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch. I had the sausage sandwich and was not disappointed. Try it; you'll like it.
