After driving around forever on a Saturday(every dang restaurant was closed on a weekend in…read morePearsall, Tx!!!!), we found this bbq place. Again our rule is , if it's empty on a weekend, think twice. We were starving, and had driven back from Laredo and didn't want to keep driving. First, the staff was amazing! I have to start with at least one positive. Which I hate to say, is wish I judged in only service. This was one of driest briskets I've had in a looonnnng time. I mean I had to take a drink after every bite or douse it in sauce. Man I wanted to like this place soooo much... the Sausage tastes almost 99% like the one from bill millers, which is not necessarily a good thing. It also was not spicy at all. The beans....all I tasted was black pepper. That's it. Nothing else. My order wasn't completely a waste, as the turkey I I order was right up there with some of the best I've ever had. It was perfectly seasoned and way juicer than the brisket. Go figure! My son on the other hand, over his grilled cheese brisket sandwich. I took a bite and agree it wasn't bad. The rice was good, he got it as a side. Seems we've had bad luck lately with brisket. To my cousins in Florida, not ALL Texas's bbq is great.

I found this place by accident, and I'm soooo glad I did! The inside was pretty quiet. I thought…read morethere was a Bible study going on when I walked in. The people working here were incredibly nice. They got me taken care of and on my way with my belly full! I ordered a chicken sandwich, nothing fancy. All I wanted on my sandwich was onion and bbq sauce. When I got my food it was exactly as I asked! Oh- and that bbq sauce was out of this world!!!! I also got some fries, and they were soooo good. Totally hit the spot. I might have to go back to try that banana pudding!!!!

We ordered two and three meat combos and we were super excited to seat down and try. Our meals were spot on. The bbq ribs and meats were just smoked and grilled so good. The sides of potato salad and mac and cheese and bbq beans were delicious! We are so glad to have come across this place. I truly satisfied our hunger and we are highly content.

I would probably give this place 5 stars but i just have one concern. Even though it's during this times during the pandemic we went through the drive-thru. I must say I was disappointed in the amount of time it took me to get my sandwich. There was a total of 3 vehicles ahead of me and I know I stood in that drive-thru line for over 30 minutes. I will tolerate the longer times considering what we are going through but I'm sure they can do better than that.

My Sausage Wrap was perfectly smoked, not spicy (so I could taste the smoky goodness), and was "wrapped" in a slice of white bread. The others all decided on Brisket and the Sandwiches were moist, smokey, tender, and oh so delicious. While I'm not sure I'd make the trip that we did again, if we do I'm SO going back to Evett's!

Texas is known as having the best barbecue in the country! We all hear about the big names that…read morestretch from Austin to Dallas to Houston. I've been to probably all of them. Well, there's another one called "City Market" that skipped right past me. Or, no one thought to tell me. It's one or the other because this place is pretty popular with lines out the door! So I heard about City Market BBQ, the same day I drove to Luling, Texas! It's an hour outside of Austin. City Market is in the downtown area, and parking was a breeze; the line I saw on the sidewalk coming from City Market, I must admit, was long, but it was a breeze, too. Now, this is on Wednesday, not the weekend. I hopped in line, the line moving fast. People are friendly, telling me that once I'm inside, there's another door I will go into to place my order. I like to call this the secret door with all the good smells of smoky barbecue. Check out my pictures of the secret door; you can't even see inside. I'm there, I made it inside, and there's 3 of the most friendly older gentlemen I will ever meet in my life. One of them caught on that I haven't been in a kitchen, never in my life, when he started asking if I wanted 1/4 of brisket. I whispered, "Give me three or four, because I'm not good at math either." Oh, we had a great laugh! I sat down, picked on a rib, and the meat slid from the bone! It was so tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The skin had the right burnt in the right spots. The meat was moist and easy to chew. I was like the Flintstones cleaning the bones before I bit into my sausage and brisket. The sausage was very good, and my brisket was smoky, like my ribs. I have to brag about the sauce. It came in a skinny bottle. It was a new flavor for me; it wasn't spicy, but it had a nice heat to it that I loved! I'm so happy I chose to ride down to Luling to visit City Market as soon as I heard about this BBQ place. I would have been so mad at myself if I had waited and forgotten!

City Market in Luling was established in either 1957 or 1958, depending on the source. The…read morerestaurant's own website says "Established in 1958," and most historical references use 1958. So as of 2026, the barbecue place is about 68 years old. It's considered one of the classic old-school Central Texas barbecue joints and still operates much like a traditional meat-market-style BBQ house. This is an older building, including bathrooms... One of which was not working. Was disappointed that their sides include potato salad, and beans only because when I go to barbecue, I love Colliard greens, potato salad, beet salad, etc. not available here. The brisket slice I had likely the best piece of brisket I've ever had in my life. Now... Don't go crazy. I don't eat brisket typically when I do barbecue. The rib that I had was decent. The sausage I had by comparison to other barbecue places was unfortunately the worst that I've ever had. I'm not sure what grind they use, but it seems like it was more beef and somewhat sweet to my pallet which I personally don't care for in sausage. Overall, if I just wanted brisket, I would return but next time I'm in Luling I likely will go to the place right next-door to them and try them.

We noticed 4 pasta dishes on the menu, calzones, and some salads too.

When you walk in, there's a clear line leading up to the register, with menus posted along the way and a large menu board up front, which makes ordering pretty easy. They offer a wide variety of options. The day we went, they had a chopped beef sandwich combo with a drink and a side for around $10, which felt like a solid deal. For my sides, I tried the mashed potatoes, potato salad, creamed corn, and okra. The okra was a standout--fresh, crispy, and really well done. The potato salad was also very good and worth getting. The creamed corn was something I hadn't had before--it included bacon and had a really unique flavor. It might not be for everyone, but I personally couldn't stop eating it, so I'd definitely recommend giving it a try. As for the chopped beef sandwich, it wasn't my favorite. It was a bit dry, even after adding extra barbecue sauce, and I didn't find it especially flavorful. That said, others in my group actually thought it leaned on the sweeter side, so your experience may vary. One thing that really stood out was the service. The staff was super friendly, patient, and happy to answer questions and help with recommendations. Overall, I'd say it's worth stopping by if you're in the area. If you're up for comparing, there's another barbecue spot a few miles down the road--Choke Canyon--that I've also enjoyed, especially for their sandwiches. Makes for a fun side-by-side if you're a BBQ fan.
