    This. Place. Is. Bomb. Made this a destination for a motorcycle ride. So ya I was hungry when i got there. THIS MAY BE THE BEST BRISKET AND SAUSAGE I HAVE HAD IN TEXAS. My bikes battery died and Lil Joe even gave me a jump when we were done eating. Freaking delish!!!!!!!!

    Fantastic BBQ, better than most big places in the city! It's not much to look at but this is a fantastic dive, staff is amazing! I've had most everything on the menu but I'm sad to say I only have this one photo.... This is a custom burger that they call "cowboy it up" I also added an extra patty, so it's two 1/3lb patty, and two slices of brisket with grilled onions and jalapeños and all the fixings....

    You know what they say, small towns produce the best food joints! I was only passing through and noticed the BBQ spot off Highway 77. It had about 6 cars so I pulled in. Parking is tight but there's enough spacing on the lot whether grabbing your food to-go or dining in. Upon entering there's a small bench outside to sit and eat. I entered and literally salivated at the smell of the BBQ. I glanced at the few options on the menu and went for the 2 plate combo ($11.50) which is your choice of 2 meats- sliced or chopped brisket, chicken, sausage or ribs, 2 sides- baked beans and potato salad, 2 slices of bread, onions and pickles. They also have other food options such as tacos, sandwiches, burger/fries, family packs, etc. The food is served pretty quickly and the gentleman cutting the meat is right in front. I believe that swayed my decision to get brisket because it was sliced so smoothly and I loved how juicy and flavorful it looked. And again, it smelled amazing! After I ordered, I sat down at the nearby table until my order was ready (took less than 1 minute). Once complete, you pay and you're on your way. The food was amazing! I noticed no BBQ sauce was served with the food but there was no need for it. The sausage was yum and tasted like nothing I'd had before and the brisket and those burnt ends were a fav. There's a small connecting room next to where you order with tall tables, chairs and TV's where several people were dining in. There was a small cooler with a few canned sodas for purchase. You can definitely tell this restaurant is a town favorite as customer service was nice and friendly and most everyone knew each other on a first name basis. I'm glad I passed through and would highly encourage others to check out Lil Joe's BBQ as you won't be disappointed!

    Tremendous BBQ experience here today!…read more Came from Austin, about an hour drive. Arrived around 10:20am. The line was short for early March, weather was fantastic. We ordered and got our food within 10mins of being there. All was so delicious, the brisket, the pork shoulder, sausages were amazing, ribs 10/10. The sauce was just so yummy! Potato salad was a hit and the banana pudding cannot be skipped! Plenty of seating, all outside and under covering. Classic bbq ambiance! Just loved it all!! Snow's is a real treat and lives up to the hype! Got to meet Ms Tootsie too!! You gotta visit!!

    I finally got a chance to visit Snow's bbq. And wow what an experience. Drove in from houston. So…read moreabout a 2 hour drive to get here. Arrived around 9am and there was about 60 people in line. We ordered a lot of stuff for a group of ten people. The pork steak, chicken, brisket, jalapeño cheddar sausage, reg sausage, pork ribs. The sides were bbq beans, potato salad, Cole slaw. And also came with white bread, onions, pickles, and jalapenos. The pork steak was incredible! I've never had pork steak like that before. The brisket was nice and fatty. The potato salad reminded me of grade school in a good way. I got a photo with tootsie as well. What a great bbq experience. Recommendation: pork steak, brisket, and chicken

    I would recommend this only for special occasions as the price is $$$$$$$$ That being said, my…read morehusband and I each had a beef and a pork rib. I don't know which was more delish. The beef rib was huge. It was well cooked, seasoned well, and without a heavy overpowering smoke taste and smell. The meat was tender and juicy. The pork rib meat was also perfectly cooked, the seasoning was one of the best mix of savory I had in a while. Instead of a special restaurant dinner for anniversary we thought we would eat a couple ribs. The adage @you get what you pay for" holds up well here. But the bill was exurban and this was before the current high price of meat & everything else. My husband said that I would not want to know what he paid which means over $100. I hope they can hang on until their supplies are more affordable. The cost will I am sure be a disadvantage. What we paid would have been or useful in filling my pantry. That being said, it was one of the most enjoyable meals we've brought home. If we could afford it we would definitely be our go-to place. We are looking forward to iur anniversary in a couple months when we won't feel guilty about paying a big price for a meal. I will go for flavor over fancy every time and Helberg fits that shoe.

    We used Helberg to cater our wedding and it was lovely! The food is delicious.
