I've wanted to try their Beef Ribs for a long time now and decided finally make the trip to Brenham…read moreto see what all the rave was about. But I should have planned better because they only serve the Beef Ribs on Saturday. So after standing in line for 30-45 minutes I decided to get Pork Ribs. I also got Tater Tot Casserole for a side because while waiting they ran out of several other sides. As it turned out the Tater Tots were the best part of the meal. I guess with all the hype about Truth BBQ I assumed their Ribs would be exceptional only to find out that several other BBQ places in the Hempstead area are better and more cost effective (in my opinion). Probably the best thing I saw the day I was there was a free beer while your waiting outside in line, which was popular with others in line if you drink beer. I really wanted to like Truth BBQ but for me not so much.

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

My husband and I have stopped at Hruska's multiple times when traveling. It's a gas station that…read morehas a convenient store, a grill and bakery. I usually call in our order when we are about 20 minutes away from our stop. Everytime I call in the order the person on the other end is friendly and repeats back what we order. The convenient store part of Hruska's has a lot of items that you can choose from to purchase and they have clean bathrooms which is a positive. When we get there we park, walk in and head to pick up our food at the counter. It's usually labeled with the ticket stapled to the bag. We then get in line to pay for our food. The line is usually backed up but moves fairly quickly. There is also a small area with tables and chairs that you can sit at and enjoy your meal or sit there if you need a rest. For my meal I usually order a Hamburger which comes with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and onions. I usually get mine with mustard. Their burgers are so good and a good size. Overall Hruska's is a great stopping place while traveling. Whether it's for gas, a bathroom break, or if you want to grab something to eat this is a one stop shop place.

A must stop if you are traveling between Houston and Austin on Hwy 71. I'm usually a Bucees guy,…read morebut this place specializes in something that the beaver doesn't. Kolaches! Arguably one of the greatest foods ever invented. Atleast in my world. How can you go wrong with bread filled with sweet or savory fillings? Hruska's is about halfway between Houston and Austin and a perfect rest stop to fill up on gas, use the clean facilities, grab a snack or indulge in their amazing baked goods. They are steeped in history and have been around for decades passing along the family recipes. It's obviously improved structurally over the years from a country store and looks like a modern gas station now. It's always pretty busy every time I have stopped in, but they are a well oiled machine and keep the masses moving with excellent customer service. They have all your gas station essentials like snacks and beverages. What sets them apart is their bakery. Here, they label their kolaches as the traditional fruit filled variety. I like them, but they are never my first choice. I love the ones with meat inside. Here, they label these as pigs in a blanket. They have a large variety of both. I usually go for a regular sausage and cheese, but over here, they sell a delicious pan sausage kind. On top of all their sweet and savory baked goods, they also sell burgers on the grill. Their burgers have made it to the Texas Monthly Top 50 burger spots. I have yet to try it. Overall, this is an always stop place for me. I highly recommend stopping here to stretch your legs and enjoy a delicious pastry while you're at it. I will definitely be back.

It's 4 lanes, not a lot of traffic and limited access as well. Nice low stress return to I-10 after a tasty lunch. The building obviously used to be a home and the inside just further confirms it. Lots of comfortable seating throughout. Parking is all around the building and much of it is in shade from several large trees on the property. It was lunchtime busy when we arrived but we got seated quickly and the service never faltered. The pimento cheese and sausage appetizer was so good. Picky eater got 2 plain chopped brisket tacos and enjoyed them. I got the brisket plate and was surprised to find sausage on there too. The slaw and beans for sides were good choices. Both were very tasty and definitely all their own recipe. We enjoyed it enough that we shall be hoping that lunchtime timing works out again when we are eastbound on I-10 in this area.

We ran into a couple of signs on our way down the highway and The Back Porch BBQ peaked our interest so we stopped in. Parking and location was super easy to get to and navigate. This is a small town BBQ spot so I for sure was impressed with how many folks were inside dining and how many cars the lot could hold. It was a Saturday afternoon and everyone had tables full of delicious barbecue that we passed in front of as we got sat by the friendly staff. We loved the moist brisket sandwich, fall off the bone pork ribs, plus Later on we ordered 1lb of their jalapeno cheddar sausage to go and had it the very next day while back at home in Austin. The sausage was so juicy and succulent that we didn't regret having leftovers for even another meal - morning breakfast with egg - the next day. Portions were large and there was plenty of food to bring back home with us to enjoy later. Great and wonderful and attentive staff is what makes this spot even that more enjoyable.
