Excellent local bbq restaurant with that local Texas feel. I had the brisket slices along with pork spare ribs and sides of green beans, mac and cheese. Brisket was very tender and easily cuts with a fork, no knife needed. Meat off the spare ribs fell right off. Both had that smokey flavor and seasoned very well. It was a bit crowded on a Saturday afternoon but service was quick and very friendly. When my business travels bring me back to San Angelo Texas, I will definitely be back read more

First time to try this location, because it was recommended by a sales clerk in downtown San Angelo. The server was very polite and friendly! The restaurant has table seating and booth seating as well. The food was well cooked and the peach cobbler dessert was great! read more

"OUR VALENTINES DAY" - Yesterday was Valentines Day (in case you didn't know, and if you didn't know, you can buy your Valentine some candy and flowers for half price today). Anyway, since my Lovely Wife didn't want to cook up a Special Valentines Dinner for me, I decided to take her out to eat. For some reason she didn't want to eat at Wienerschnitzel, so I came up with something else - "Packsaddle BBQ" for their Fried Catfish. They recently have been chosen as the Best Fried Fish in all of San Angelo. But before that, our Valentines Day started off with Coffee (Honey Almond), Cards & Gifts and a Delicious Breakfast prepared by my Lovely Wife. Happy Valentines Day Baby, Love You Bunches & ValentineMunches. We left for Packsaddle a little earlier than our normal dinner time because after we eat we are heading out to the Museum of Fine Arts for a Special Display of "Where Children Sleep". Walked in and was greeted by Rachel, a Server we have had several times. Chatted with her for a while, then chose a booth. Even for an early dinner, there are a good number of people at Packsaddle. McKenna is our Server and we ordered our drinks, then the "Fried Catfish"; 4-Catfish Filets Hand Breaded in Southern Style Cornmeal, served with Hushpuppy, Tartar Sauce & Red Sauce with choice of 2-sides, chose Mac-N-Cheese and Pinto Beans. We are sharing this plate. It didn't take them long to serve us our Catfish and it looks Delicious with 4-Huge Filets. My first bite was without any sauce - this Catfish is served HOTTT and it's mighty good stuff. Love the thick breading on this thick filet, very tastylicious with a light crunch. My Wife said that this is the Best Catfish she has had, and she wanted some more from my plate. Hey fellows, it's okay this time because it's Valentines Day - if that's what she wants, that's what she gets. Love You Baby - have another. This is some of the Best Catfish you can have anywhere. Love their Tartar sauce and the Red Sauce is thicklylicious. The Pinto Beans are mighty-meaty-beans and the Mac-N-Cheese is also some good stuff - and my Wife LoVed the Hushpuppy. Packsaddle BBQ also gives the Ladies a Chocolate dipped Strawberry for Valentines Day - and we both enjoyed this. The Strawberry was Sweet-N-Juicylicious with a nice amount of Chocolate. Nicely done Packsaddle - we loved everything we had. McKenna earned the "Dollar-Bow-Tie" Award for going 'above-n-beyond' the norm. When you want some Great BBQ or have a craving for some Catfish, stop in at Packsaddle BBQ - they have lots of choices on their menu. - also, stop in on the Third Saturday of each month and enjoy the Car Show. Sometimes my "Vette-Jet" is also there with lots of Hot Rods, Custom Cars and some really nice rides. read more

Food was very delicious, had chicken fried steak so crisp and tender, and a side of jalapeño sausage which was so good. Very nice atmosphere clean and service was amazing. Only took one star off because creepy bald guy standing doing nothing but staring out the front window. Was kinda a vibe killer. Oh and the onion rings are a must. read more

There's a reason this place has been in business for as long as it has. I have had pretty much everything on the menu from the fried fish, hamburger, chopped brisket sandwich, brisket plate, all the sides, and most desserts. I have never had a bad meal or experience. The waitresses are very good at what they do and they're always very nice. The inside has changed a little over the years, but still has that cozy cafe feel. It's definitely worth trying. I would recommend trying the brisket plate, but that's just my opinion. read more

Visiting my birthplace of San Angelo, all the way from California. Can't get BBQ like this out there. Brisket, jalapeño sausage and double okra. Don't forget the peach cobbler with homemade icecream, it'll make you shed a tear Staff are friendly and kind. Feels like home when you walk in the doors, lowkey and casual. read more

Packsaddle BBQ - Peach cobbler with homemade ice cream - Barbeque Near Me - San Angelo, Texas

My wife Rebecca and I decided it had been along while since visiting this establishment. We were very politely greeted and told to sit anywhere we wanted. My wife and I had previously been in a foul mood. This waitress named RACHEL { apologizing if spelling isn't correct} was super fantastic. I am not a regular at this place but it would be shame if you didn't give it a try. My wife ordered a turkey plate and it looked good. Me not being a turkey lover ordered chicken fried steak. I could cut it with a fork. Phenomenal. The atmosphere was quiet, however we went around 3pm. read more

Should not even get a star. We ordered thru the door dash app and went to pick up because the store does not have an online ordering system. They got our order wrong and put everything on our burgers when we only asked for very limited toppings. Mayo on one only and LTP on the other and it came with mustard. Called the store. They said since you went to door dash you have to deal with them. Go back to the site and says if you have an issue with your order call the store. Long story short waitress argued and would not refund or offer to remake the burger. Drove back to the store for them only to say we will only give you a new bun. We dont care that the other crap soaked into your burger. Never again. Crap customer service. WILL NOT BE BACK EVER! read more

Great food in a good & convenient location, coupled with good service for a reasonable price! What more can one ask for? read more

Whoever said they had dry brisket was a liar!! Hand down that was the best, juiciest brisket I have had in well over two years!! Beans had great flavor too. Jalapeño cheese sausage was quite flavorful as well. 10/10 Will definitely recommend to friends!!! read more

Packsaddle has been around for years. It has never ceased to amaze me. The waitresses, yes I said waitresses, were incredible. They made sure our needs were met even before we asked. The food was incredible. I got the surf and turf. They brought out two huge piece of catfish along with two good sized ribs. My husband had the ribs. The platter had ribs mashed potatoes with gravy and green beans. The potatoes were some of the best I've ever tasted. Then we decided to try the peach cobbler with homemade vanilla ice cream. I can't remember the last time I've had homemade ice cream that was that good! I got the chocolate cake by Emma. Man did it bring back memories for this Texas girl about Fridays in elementary school. Overall, I would give them 4.5 stars. Definitely give them a try if you're in San Angelo! read more

Packsaddle BBQ - Onion rings - Barbeque Near Me - San Angelo, Texas

Thank you for a great lunch! I was in Texas for a week and this was the only BBQ I got to eat: it was totally worthy! I got the lovely beef brisket with fried okra and beans. Our server promised me creamy beans and she delivered. The meat was juicy and tender, and the sauce... finger-licking good! My friend really enjoyed her meal, but honestly, I was all about my own plate it was so good. This will definitely be my go-to BBQ in San Angelo. Also, we sat there for FOUR hours visiting and catching up and everyone was absolutely lovely about it. Thank you! read more

My first time here. The service was great and my to-go order came out quickly. However, the portion sizes are ridiculously small. I ordered the 1/2 lb brisket plate which consisted of 4 (very small) slices of brisket. For my sides I ordered fried okra and potato salad. The okra and potato salad were great, but I got about 12 pieces of okra and probably 3 tablespoons full of potato salad. This plate was over $16 and I finished my food still hungry for more. I don't recommend this particular plate. Maybe their portions are better with different meals. I'm not sure if I will be going back. Unfortunately, the service wasn't good enough for the prices and portion sizes that they have. read more

Great food I came from Cali to Texas and I'm impressed. Amanda Helped and showed the definition of Texas hospitality. Highly recommended read more

One of the best and longest lasting legit BBQ spots in town. Great new management team and great food across the board. The catfish is super good, the turkey is melt in your mouth tender, the house BBQ sauce is addicting! Don, Tracey couple/owners are awesome, pitmaster and 20 year employee vet Jay is a master of his craft. They do spectacular large group catering events also. read more

Combo Plate is supposed to have 3/4 lb of meat. 2 tiny slices of brisket and a quarter link of sasuage does not a 3/4 lb of meat make. Sorry. BOOOOOO! read more

Just received my order for 27.46. Ordered beans and potato salad for sides received no potato salad. This joint is a joke. This has happened several times. POS BBQ joint and no mgmt. whatsoever. I'll never order again. Roy read more

I've been here twice. The first time I regretted only getting a third of a lb. The brisket was heavenly, mash potatoes creamy, and fries weren't bad either. Now the second time, I had high expectations and while it was still good, it wasn't like the first time. I ended up feeling a little queezy after but that's likely from eating too much too fast. I 100% would go back and recommend. It isn't anything fancy but you don't need fancy when you serve quality BBQ. Try it yourself, I don't think it will disappoint. read more

Packsaddle BBQ - Brisket Plate (Sliced or Chopped) chopped - Barbeque Near Me - San Angelo, Texas

It showed up in Uber Eats and I decided to give it a try. The first impression of a piece of plain white bread wasn't good. No spread, not toasted, no butter, nothing or anything. Just a piece of plain old white bread. Thanks, I haven't seen that before... I moved on to the green beans which tasted absolutely unseasoned. It's so bland that my mind went blank. It's good for meditation? Fried okra was ok. At least I could taste some seasoning. The brisket measured up to the green beans. I kept wondering when the chewing of the tasteless meat would end. The pork ribs had minimal seasoning and was lackluster as well. If you are running away from flavor town, you have come to the right place. read more

They do a decent job of barbecue. They also offer fried catfish, and a varied assortment of bottled beers.

Probably the worst barbecue we've had in Texas. So sad :( Ribs had no flavor Mac n cheese was definitely store bought. Brisket was really tough. read more

Very cute country aesthetic. Smells delicious as soon as you walk through the door. Burger was perfectly chargrilled. My husband enjoyed his po boy. The fries were very soggy, I kind of enjoy soggy fries however they had no salt on them very bland. They definitely need some salt. Peach cobbler tastes more like an apple cobbler, was missing the peaches. The key lime pie was good and so tart. Everyone was very friendly. We enjoyed our experience. Just need to salt those fries!!! read more

Fish was great, moist. Everything else was eh, the sandwich was $10 with one piece of brisket and one piece of sausage. And the desserts- y'all gotta do better. It was like a school cafeteria. The cake and the cobbler were almost nostalgic how much they reminded me of elementary school. The 'homemade icecream' was like melted and refrozen soft serve. Just icicles. But yes, the fish was great. read more

Ok so I've been there twice I never review off of one visit. At this point I believe it wasn't a one off with amazing service and food. It feels like one big family there and as someone new to town they made me feel as if I belong. It reminds me of the bbq places I loved in Montana and that's high praise from me. read more

Brisket was dry and tasteless without the sauce. Jalapeño cheese sausage was tough, and dry. Green beans were flavorless too. Beans were decent. Nothing better than what I cook in my own home. A lot of people in San Angelo think, "Packsaddle" when they think of bbq, so I was excited to try the place out, but sadly, this was a let down. read more

Passing through Tx on my way to Dallas so I stop by , Qk service but disappointing Tx BBQ

I hope they were just having an off day when we picked up our to-go bbq because it was not good. The brisket was rubbery, not tender. The sides tasted like they were out of a can. I don't know if I'll try them again...this is Texas, bbq should be the one thing everyone does well. read more

This BBQ is always dry no matter what plate you get. Even the brisket is dry even the chips.

Good food! Good service! Stopped by after my flight was delayed a few hours and it hit the spot.

Best burger and Mac nd cheese and fried pickles In town Best Service Ever They take very good care of you and Best place to eat

Had this when I went home to visit. service: super super friendly and accomodating I always feel rude not leaving physical cash (that i never carry) when I leave the table. but i hope they realize everyone pays with cards and that is where tip is left. FOOD: the brisket needed something. I wish I could ask for bark cut like @ Rudy's. but ah well. The beef ribs were the shiny star of the place along with the sausage. potato salad was great! beans: downright horrible. there was no seasoning, no salt, no flavor, no bacon, nothing. it was like hospital beans. yup I said it. but the people made up for it. I'd gob k and try a hamburger. read more

On our third visit to Packsaddle, this time takeout we were surprised with poor quality food. To start with our order of fried pickles (pictured) were really salty. So salty we threw the entire order in the trash. My wife and I both had the combo plates with brisket and turkey. The meat was as great as if we ate in, it would have been nice to have some bbq sauce included. Ended up using some sauce from HEB. Sides had good flavor but portion size was quite small. After this experience we have decided to only eat in at Packsaddle since our past two dine-in meals were for me. read more
