    Fully loaded baked potato from Odoms BBQ
    Pamela M.

    I love Odoms BBQ!!! My favorite is the fully loaded baked potato. I gets it with chopped beef, butter, sour cream and cheese. Delicious

    Steam table

    Let me point out a few details: This is a hole in the establishment. That's not a bad thing, but don't come here anticipating 4 star service. Babii, this is the hood, plain and simple. If you are in a rush or limited on time, this isn't the place for you. The service moves slowly. However, as soon as the doors open, it's packed. Seating is limited, and if the A/C is working, the circulation is minimal. The ladies that work the counter aren't rude they're simply used to the clientele they service. They match everyone's energy. I promise we eat here once a month. I haven't had one dish that wasn't on point. L to R: Oxtails over gravy, slick leaf greens, mac n cheese, cornbread dressing. Veggies plate: cabbage, yams, mac n cheese, black eye peas with corn muffins The prices are reasonable. However, due to inflation, they are slowly increasing. Yelpers if you want some solid soil food & bbq slide on down to Odoms.

    Chopped beef sandwich
    Hilary A.

    I do not think I will ever get bbq from any other bbq spot than Odoms! WOW is my summary for this place lol. I ordered a rib sandwich and a large chopped beef sandwich. When you go in there is no seating due to covid, but the line is distanced well in guidelines with covid. The lady who took my order was pretty cool. My food took like 10 minutes to finish. The price was decent for the size of the meal, but be ready to spend a decent penny on a good meal. The chopped beef sandwich was AMAZING!! Like it was packed with beef and sweet bbq, I am daydreaming about it right now! The rib sandwich was also delicious but I do prefer the chopped beef sandwich. The nines in the rib sandwich slide right out so in case you were wondering how you would eat it there you go. Overall I will Definitely be back to Odoms & I recommend you do too!!

    I decided to try this place since it was just around the corner. I had the 2 meat plate with ribs and links. We also got the 1/2 chicken plate. First of all, I asked if I could substitute the potato salad and he said no that's the way it comes or I'll have to get double beans. Then he asked way? I do not like or eat potato salad. It would have been nice to have another option or at least some chips instead. He later tried to explain after the order was ready that other options would have been available but not on Saturday. We did not enjoy our meal. The meat was swimming in thin watery bbq sauce. It wasn't even tasty. The links were okay and so were the beans, but how can you mess up a can of ranch style beans. Needless to say, we went to bed hungry. It was a waste of food and money. I will not be returning to this establishment.

Beef Ribs: These were the star of the show. They were incredibly tender, melting off the bone with deep, complex flavors that set a high bar for BBQ. Brisket: While still high-quality, I found the brisket in Austin to have better meat to fat ratio. The Dallas version was good, but it didn't quite hit the same heights as the Austin achieved earlier in our trip. Even with the slight variation in the brisket, Terry Black's remains a standout. The combination of fantastic beef ribs, a great vibe, and reliable service makes it a must-visit. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

To that one guy in the reviews who said that "the trough" will require at least 4 grown men, he was correct. I think this is a good amount for 4 men (without feeling absolutely disgusted from all this fatty deliciousness). The trough comes with 1 pound of brisket (5ish), 1 pound of beef ribs, 1 pound of pork ribs (5ish), 1/2 pound of pulled pork, 2 hand made sausage links, and 2 sides along with raw onions and pickles. The brisket is so good. Melt in your mouth. Make sure you get to try some of the leaner and fatty portions of it. The beef ribs are also perfect. It was Smokey, fatty, and fall off the bone just by touching it. I also very much enjoyed the sausages. The jalapeño cheddar and the maverick sausage (hatch chilis, cilantro, and queso Oxana, amazing) were so good. The Mac and cheese and collared greens were very good. Did not get the try the other sides. The bbq sauce was also very tangy and the brisket sauce? (I think?) is also a little acidic and a perfect pairing. There is an indoors eating area (AC blasting), but also an outside area with benches. The service is great and fast

I follow the chef/owner on Instagram (@kafibbq), and the amount of effort and detail he puts into his craft has resulted in multiple return visits for me. This review is for my latest visit. My Overall Rating - 5 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - Kafi BBQ can be found in a shopping strip in Irving-Valley Ranch. Only opened Friday - Sunday, on my most recent Sunday visit around dinner time, Kafi was packed. The patrons were a great mix of families, BBQ lovers, and those looking for high quality Halal meats. Smoke was in the air. 1 Star. Service - The staff is super friendly and nice. Pro Tip - Go for lunch or before 6 before items are sold out. A few items were sold out on my most recent visit (my fault I arrived at 6:45) and the staff weren't aware of what was available, leading to some confusion, but they were so nice it didn't impact my meal. 1 Star. Food - By now, you've probably read or heard about Kafi's Wagyu Brisket. For me, I love following @kafibbq on Instagram so I can see what Salahodeen is cooking up. On this visit, it was the Brisket Sandwich. First off, the house baked bread roll is soft, but firm enough to hold Kafi's famous brisket on a pile of home made cole slaw and pickles. The result was one of the best BBQ sandwiches I've eaten. The bite was soft, smokey, crunchy, and tart (from the pickles). It was a special, and I'm not sure if Kafi will keep this on the menu, but I hope they do. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. It's pricey, but it's worth it. While the brisket is great, I suggest you follow them on Instagram to see what's cooking and plan your visit around the specialty items. 1 Star.
