Great food, large portions. Friendly staff. Good prices too. Chicken was moist, beef was lean and tasty . Mac and cheese and coleslaw was very good as well. Highly recommended by me and several friends read more

Not a huge fan of this one for bbq or breakfast brisket tacos. The bbq used in brisket tastes sour. I've known about this place through different community events! I know they support the community! Love that! read more

Great deal for combo $20 for 4 meats and 2 sides (meats are all 2 pieces of each type) Ordered the side of sweet potato fries and Mac and cheese. The fries were extremely soggy and raw tasting on the inside. The Mac and cheese was bland and tasted like it came from a box.. Brisket was lean which I preferred Pulled pork was average Baby back ribs did not fall off the bone Burnt ends are sauced - was hoping for dry and not wet burnt ends Good packaging to go - fries served in paper bag to absorb oil! read more

31Jan2026 midday The Wife and I went here for lunch and dropped about $44 for two lunches. The overall look of the place is rustic. Wood everywhere, kitch from earlier years adorn the walls. The smokey smell when entering hit like a small hammer ... inviting but not smash mouth level scents. I hoped the smell was a sign of the meal to come. It got me about half-way there before ordering. My wife eventually ordered the baked tater with chopped beef and peach cobbler while I ordered the three meat plate with sausage, sliced brisket (lean and fat) with turkey as my third meat with mac n cheese and cole slaw. We also ordered two drinks to finish off our meal list. Overall, the meals came pretty fast and the add ons (pickles, jalapeño slices as well as bread and sauces were in plenty along the side of the counter) were piled onto my tray after our number was called. I usually do a half sweet half unsweet tea, but this place had tea tinted sugar water and after a few sips I actually had to pour it out and replace it with unsweet tea. The meal, however was not as onesided as my tea mix. The sausage, while flavorful, tended to be on the warm side. The brisket was not fork tender and was also a tad on the dry side. Their jalapeño sauce worked its moisturizing magic and saved the beef. My turkey, however, rocked. It was moist, juicy and unusually tender. This is the one redeeming protein on my plate that would have me make the journey back to Conroe from The Woodlands. I can only imaging what a smoked turkey sammie would be like. YUM! The sides were very bland. The mac n cheese tasted like it was macaroni drenched in velveeta then placed in the tray on the steam table. Flavor was nonexistent and the mouth feel was not the greatest. That cole slaw tasted like those sides from institutionalized, US Army mess hall fare that was plopped out of a container, stirred around to drown the cabbage in an overly sweet, liquid forward melange of disconnected flavors that should not be served together. My wife shared her peach cobbler that was average at best. The crust was over-baked on the edges and the peach filling was good but could have had more peach chunks. A Stouffer's Peach Cobbler is the closest analog that I can identify it with. Overall, the staff were wonderful, the speed of the meal hitting my table was a nice change of pace jn most sit down places. If I had to give a 1-10 rating, I would say a solid five is justified. Good enough to drop by for a filling meal, just not so great of some other BBQ places like Killen's. Solid on the turnaround times. If I lived in the immediate Conroe area, it would be on the every now and again list ... specifically for the turkey. I still remember how it tasted. Mmmmmmm. Ciao, Darrell read more

Mediocrity at its finest! I was near so I thought I would try it but this was some of the blandest brisket I've ever had. The jalapeño sausage was decent and the bbq sauce was good. I always judge my brisket by the need of (or lack there of) sauce to make the meat palatable. I was soaking this brisket because alone it was not worth the effort. I would not come back. read more

McKenzie's Barbeque & Burgers - 3 Meat Plate: Ribs, chicken & sausage. - Barbeque Near Me - Conroe, Texas

The service was horrible, the food wasn't bad but it wasn't good. The cashier "Sara" was sooooo disrespectful we asked her to repeat what she said and she said " I said you have onion, pickles, lettuce!". And on the menu they had 12 meats and they only had 3 meats! And the food took forever. read more

Solid bbq restaurant for being a chain. Food is always hot and fresh because they're doing a lot of volume. I love the brisket and jalapeño sausage. All the sides are good. I'm into fried okra and macaroni. Both are good. Usually pretty fast service too. read more

Ordered for a 60th Anniversary Party. Everyone loved the food. Brisket had a great smoke taste without it being the only thing you could taste. read more

The ribs and brisket were cooked wonderfully with smoky flavor and lots of moisture left in the meat. The chicken on the three meat plate turned out to be white meat and was of course dried out. The BBQ sauce was one of the most vinegar heavy I've had and was not to my liking. Trying to eat keto I was disappointed that of the dozen sides they offer zero cooked vegetables. I'll keep driving to the next place next time I'm in the neighborhood. read more

The food is great but we ordered a double of moist brisket and got a few pieces. Very disappointing to the portion amount. I had bit off one small piece before I took that picture. read more

McKenzie's Barbeque & Burgers - Barbeque Near Me - Conroe, Texas

Up in Willis for baseball practice and needed a quick place to grab a bite to eat. Found this place and gave it a try. It is a large expansive location and actually has two separate counters depending on whether you want bbq or burgers. If your party has a combination of both, they'll take your order but pickup is at two separate windows. Not a big deal but confusing on your first visit. They have this down to a science though and big lines move swiftly. There were two in our party today and our orders were almost identical with the exception of the brisket. I am a fan of moist while MK favors lean. We opted to add onion rings and sweet potato fries as sides and both were phenomenal. My moist brisket included some end pieces that were decidedly unmoist but all was well by the third slice. Food is plentiful and the atmosphere is friendly. I would certainly return. read more

I pass up Smokey Moe's on my way here from Willis. The portions and quality are far superior. Our to go order was absolutely perfect. All the fixin's included, not a single thing missing. Everything was fresh, flavorful and fulfilling. We were very happy with our dinner. Willis needs McKenzie's BBQ. read more

I needed something for our staff potluck. I was already at a meeting in McKenzie's, so I bought three pounds of meet to take with me in the morning. It was packaged nicely, came with pickles, onions, bread and sauce. I love the BBQ at this restaurant, so this was a no-brainer. No stress on me, I show up with something everyone likes, and I know the BBQ will satisfy anyone who tries it. Thank you, McKenzie's, for being my go-to BBQ restaurant in a pinch! read more

Had the 3 meat plate, brisket, ribs and chicken. Absolute fire. Fed the family and couldn't ask for better food and a better spot to enjoy some great Texas bbq. Highly recommend Collin and the crew. Cheers to the great food. read more

Great burgers, breakfast, sausage and ribs. Service anyways great and d friendly. Wish they were open sundays as well

Food and the service was great! The staff was warm and friendly very thoughtful. The ambiance was just great in all very family friendly read more

A $20 meal became a $30 with unexpected add-ins, eventually $40 w/ taxes & tip. As we placed our order, based on the menu & prices. When offered options for items we chose, no up charge was disclosed. At one point, my husband & I realized we wanted 1 of the same sides, so we could share. When asked if we could change a side, we were told that he would have to void the whole ticket & start over & he made it very clear that was not an option. So we went forward. Last time I'll be there. read more

We have been to McKenzie's numerous times and the food is excellent and consistent. The service is amazing and the entire staff is a pleasure. Today was our first take out... happily the order was 110% correct and they always make sure you are well taken care of dine in or take out. Thanks to everyone there always a great experience!!! read more

For Barbecue done right, go to McKenzies. I always recommend to out of towners. Everyone here knows! loving that marbled brisket and my husband the link! read more

We had my husband's 50th Birthday at this location. We were NOT satisfied with the food. Pork ends were dime size pieces of hard rock ends, potato salad was horrible and bland, and the brisket was dry. All the food tasted like it had been sitting for AWHILE! VERY Disappointed. Having paid over $500 I figured we would get better food! Venue was nice, so if you are thinking of having a large gathering....just order when you get their, Food will be fresh and you will pay the same price! read more

always wonderful food and service! We especially love the briske. I hope to have one of your burgers soon.

The food was awesome, I love the sauce. The portions were very substantial and service was spot on. I thank them. It was also a very nice place to visit and enjoy a meal. read more

I wanted to update and state that a few times ago must have been an off night. I've been back and the burgers are still really good! I would highly recommend. read more

I want to give this place another try but it fails me every time! The servings have gone down significantly and prices are way higher, service was good, but would like to see improvements on the amount of food we get. read more

I don't care what anyone says. McKenzie's barbecue has the best smoky flavor of any local barbecue spot. If you love super smoky barbecue, this is the place for you. They just do it right. Best brisket and best pulled pork. Also, if you are a fan of potato salad like myself. Best potato salad at a barbecue place I've ever had in my life. Come get some. read more

This place was recommended by someone that eats here regularly and they were spot on. The food here is really good and the prices are reasonable. I can see this place in my future when I return to the area. The people at the front counter were really nice and helpful to us, everything they recommended was good. read more

I stopped by on Friday to have lunch at McKenzie's in Conroe. I had heard some mixed reviews, but there were some good comments on the burgers, so I gave that a try. I ordered a 1/2 lb Cheeseburger and the Onion Rings. I asked if they would cook the burger rare, and the counter person said yes, and marked it that way on my receipt. You pick up your order in the next room near the grill. As I was waiting, I noted that the grill lady was cooking a burger patty. To my horror, I watched as she repeatedly smashed the burger with a spatula over and over squeezing every last bit of juice out of the burger. For I moment I felt relief knowing that could not possibly be my burger since she continued this for several more minutes, and I had ordered my burger rare. A few minutes later, she passed the patty over to the person who was assembling the bun, and putting the onion rings on the platter. Holy #$@$!! That was my burger! I did not have the time or inclination to send it back, but as I cut into it, I found a dry grey patty with not a hint of moisture. Keep in mind, this is a 1/2 pound patty, not a "smash style burger". No cook should ever keep smashing a burger of this type, even if requested well done. This was one of the worst burgers I have ever had. Very disappointing. The only reason this reviews gets 2 stars instead of 1 star, is that the onion rings were excellent. I hope the management reads this review, and has a conversation with their grill staff regarding how to cook a burger properly. Perhaps with proper cooking their burgers could be decent. read more

Best RIBS..... EVER Extra crispy fried okra too Friendly service with positive attitude read more

Food was not worth the price, lacks flavor. Would not recommend to anyone who enjoys authentic bbq.

Amazing BBQ! Exceptional customer service! Beautiful and clean restaurant! This is my go-to BBQ fixer. They have catered the last 2 office lunches for my team and I with succulent sandwiches and perfect timing, while working with our needs. Mattie made some magic happen for us today! I'm not sure how many times we had to call her and ask questions or change something; but when the lunch bell rang, everyone on my team was making yummy noises behind genuine smiles. I personally picked up the delivery and watched Mattie ensure everything we needed was accounted for. This was after drooling at the employees behind the counter fixing our food. I have no reason to go anywhere else. read more

McKenzie's Barbeque & Burgers - Having this posted speaks volumes. - Barbeque Near Me - Conroe, Texas

Our Uber driver recommended this Fabulous restaurant. I had the 2 meat platter and my sister had the 3 rib plate. We started with the appetizer sampler plate. The fried pickles, fried jalapenos and onion strings were amazing. The cheese sticks were lost in the mix and were average. Suggestion remove the cheese sticks and replace with the McKenzie Chips dusted with your rub. Rib plate was great and the 2 meat platter was awesome. Menu was easy to understand and employees were very helpful. Definitely a do again. read more
