    BBQ was ok. To me the BBQ here lacked a good smoky flavor. I am no BBQ expert but the BBQ seemed very tough. The rib meat did not pull clean from the bone. And the pulled pork and chopped brisket seemed dry and tough. The BBQ sauce that they offer had a fair taste but I do not think they make it in house. It tasted more like bottled BBQ sauce from the store. And the bold version was the same sauce just added spices.

    I'm a big fan of Texas BBQ and the great hospitality that makes the experience so much more. However, I didn't quite feel the hospitality here today which is surprising seeing that we're so close to the border. I The food was okay. I got the two meet combo (brisket & ribs) and two sides (potato salad & beans) The meats were just a tad over cooked for my liking and lacked the smokey flavor I crave to find in Texas BBQ. The bbq sauce was great which I used to rain over the meat. If you're driving through I would give this place another chance

    Driving around Texas eating great BBQ and Tyler's Bbq in Amarillo TX is always on my list…read more Tyler's has the charm that is true Texas BBQ. They welcome people here as if everyone is family. They have a large parking lot. They have indoor and outside sitting areas. So the process here is you go through the line and place your order they start with the proteins first then the sides with bread pickles and onions last. They cut and weigh the meats in front of you so you see what you are getting on your tray. You pay at the end and you get your tray of food after a short wait. Saturday is $16.00 a lb Beef Ribs. No hold on the ribs so get there early as the beef ribs are delicious and worth getting in line early for. We got brisket which was a 10/10. We got the beef ribs some to eat there and 1 to bring home to Houston 10/10. We also got the sausage 11/10 it was spicy as we got jalapeño cheddar and the black peppercorn. We also got PORK BELLY WITH BERRY CHIPOTLE which was 10/10. Everything here was delicious and so memorable. They make their own pickles so make sure you get some of the delicious homemade pickles! We tried the potato salad, coleslaw, jalapeño cream corn and the pinto beans. All the sides were good but the cream corn was the best. I highly recommend you make a trip to Tyler's BBQ.

Olton is a nice 45 minute drive from Lubbock so check their social media accounts to make sure they have food before you go. We arrived hungry and found a short line. They have plenty of parking in the lot and street available. The wait in line gave us the opportunity to view the menu and plan our order. We got brisket, sausage, pork sliders and 1 catfish fillet. They have inside and covered screened outdoor sitting. You place your order and pay and they bring you the tray of food. Let me tell you that all the food here is delicious. The fillet of catfish was served with hush puppies and tartar sauce, it is the BEST catfish I have ever had!! The brisket was moist with a great smoke ring. The sausage was nice and yummy. The pork sliders looked good and tasted delicious. Everything here was delicious and fresh even though it was around 7pm on Friday. The people that work here also are some of the best people you will ever meet. They represent Texas BBQ at the best. I highly recommend that you make a trip to Rejino Barbeque as the people and food are worth the drive.

Bbq sauce on the side simple and flavorful. Sides were an after thought and typical. Corn bread though... damn that's legit great cornbread in any category. Can't complain about anything I tried.

The chopped beef sandwich was sensational with underlying seasoning that gave it more depth of flavor than most barbecue I've had. I look for Jetfire food truck everywhere I go where there are food trucks!

    It was late in the afternoon so I wasn't sure if there would be any food trucks we liked next to…read morethe Clovis library, but I was certain that neither Lee nor I felt like cooking this evening. There were only three: one with Asian food with all its fresh bean sprouts and green onions and crispy fried rice, one with super crispy fried chicken, and the barbecue truck, Jetfire. The owner (I guessed) was out front, talking to another guy. I asked if they were open and if they had anything that a couple of old folks who couldn't chew "too good" could eat, maybe some brisket so fatty it would melt in your mouth. He kind of shook his head and then said, "I could chop some brisket up nice and soft and put it on a plate with two sides or a sandwich or just some meat by the pound?" Long story slightly shorter, he disappeared into the Jetfire truck and emerged a few minutes later with 2 chopped beef sandwiches, 2 sides of beans, 1 side of mac-n-cheese and a side of potato salad. We took it home and began eating some of the finest barbecue I've tasted in a very long time -- maybe sometime in the 30 years or so I lived in Austin, TX, and it wasn't just the chopped brisket -- each dish was a treat unto itself! The beef had bits of charred fat concentrated with the smoke and maybe worcestershire and horseradish? I don't know, but it was delectable! The bun was perfectly toasted on the grill in butter or maybe beef fat. The potato salad was the perfect combination, IMO, of vinegary, mustardy and mayonnaisey and the mac-n-cheese was the perfect texture of soft but not soggy with a lighter, a little sweeter sauce and chunks of Velveeta in it to give you an occasional burst of cheesy flavor. I think the folks running this truck have a secret ingredient that gives everything a depth and complexity you don't find just anywhere. This has become my go-to barbecue in the area and I recommend it to any BBQ lover. Plus the gentleman who rustled up this food for us was a damn nice guy! The plates were 10 bucks a piece-- well, worth the price, but one plate with one extra side would have been more than enough for the two of us who have fairly light appetites. (We will enjoy leftovers tomorrow!) Thank you, Jetfire!

    It's a fun little spot you wouldn't know about unless you had heard about it from other people or…read morelooked it up. Everyone is so friendly when you walk in and very thoughtful. You order food at the register and then sit down, so when you order a dessert, they can put a little note to serve it to you at the end. Speaking of dessert, that pecan cobbler ala mode smacks! The perfect ending to a delicious meal. The meat is so tender and falls off the bone. You don't need a knife to cut anything. A plastic knife will do the job easily. They say the brisket is the star of the show and I can attest to that. However, the turkey is the runner up. I don't know what they do to that Turkey, but my husband and I might have to grab more to take home with us tomorrow. They were so nice too because we ordered a 1/2 rack of ribs and they ran out, so we got the last of the ribs. The also doubled all our meats! We wound up getting 1/2 a lb of turkey and 1 lb of brisket! We are going to be eating some good sandwiches for the next few days. We definitely plan on coming back the next time we are in Amarillo. If you're in the area, definitely come in and grab a bite! They also have plenty of choices in beer too.
