I ordered the Whiskey Dip Brisket Sandwich with award-winning smoked brisket, caramelized onions, and smoked gouda. Add some of their BBQ sauces and it's a great sandwich overall. My only nitpick: the onions were more lightly sautéed than truly caramelized. Service had a rocky start. We waited at the "please wait to be seated" sign and were totally ignored until a bar regular flagged down a waiter. The guy who came over didn't say a word -- just waved us to a table, dropped menus, and vanished. I braced for the worst, but our server turned it around. She was sweet, attentive, and on top of everything. The vibe is lively, mostly thanks to the bar crowd. Nothing rowdy, but it's definitely not the spot for a quiet dinner. I liked the energy, though I get that it's not for everyone. 4/5 stars. That silent host cost them a star, but the food and our server made up for it. read more

I will give y'all the good news first. The service here is really nice. Like southern hospitality nice. However, the food is so bland. Its bad, the Texas toast is even bland. Lol like how you mess up bread though. No butter or nothing. Just lightly toasted. Soft toast lol I'm sorry but the dinner we ordered was not good at all. We had their string beans, baked beans, and a extra side of potato salad. All items were bland. I'm so amazed how bad the food tasted. Smh this could have been a great place to freqently dine at but nope they dont season their food. I dont know why but they should definitely change their cooking practices. I'm so confused after eating here. Like what are your cooks doing in the back. read more

Texas Ribs and BBQ - Full rack of ribs - Barbeque Near Me - Clinton, Maryland

I'm STILL full from our carry out order! I have passed by this restaurant for almost 6 years and this was my first time stopping. I assumed it was just another mass produced assembly line styled carry out. SUPER happy I finally did. Just check out my pics. HUGE portions and the ribs were PERFECT. Sheesh ... did you see the size of the sweet potato?!?! We were not a fan of the mac 'n cheese but not a deal breaker. Waited at the bar for my carryout order and had the strongest Cosmo for the best price EVER. Might consider asking for more cranberry juice next time but just trust me ... there WILL be a NEXT time. Nothing fancy and clearly a neighborhood establishment. It's giving The Alibi Room from Shameless. IYKYK. Cordial, but luke-warm, service. Not a complaint ... after all, I'm not a regular. Blink and you'll miss it, but when you do visit ... tell them you saw it on Yelp! read more

This was the first time here and it was very good. The smoked wings were also good the sauce was very tasty. The brisket was good seasoned well and not dry but definitely not texas style but it was really good. The customer service was outstanding i would definitely hit this spot again. The place seems nice and cozy with a bar to match next time I'm going to eat in . read more

The usually get the half rack of spare ribs. They are meaty and tender. I also get the mild sauce on the side. Their potato salad is great too. The bartender is always friendly. Nice neighborhood bbq place. read more

I always hear people talk about a good BBQ spot in Clinton. So I trekked over there for lunch last week and the bar was full, and the restaurant was busy as well, so I was hopeful. I ordered at the to go window and she was very nice. I ordered the chowder and the brisket . It said market price and ended up paying about $18. So when I got home I dug into it and it was cooked perfectly. But it lacked some flavor. And the soup was right up my alley. It had a great peppery taste and a smooth creamy ending. All in all I would have given it a 4 but the sandwich lacked flavors. I will try it again. read more

Texas Ribs and BBQ - Sampler 1 with Brisket - Barbeque Near Me - Clinton, Maryland

The award winning brisket is not what it used to be. It is dry, rubbery and flavorless. Good smoked meat should be pink/red from the smoking process. This meat was brown. Will not be back. read more

Came here for lunch and was surprised by how good the steak was. Ordered the sirloin and it had that nice char on the outside and was still pink and tender inside. The seasoning was simple but done right. The fries that came with it were crispy and lightly salted. Our server was friendly and food came out quickly. Not too crowded around lunchtime either. I'll definitely add this to my regular lunch rotation. read more

The food has so much potential but baybeeee, that lack of seasoning really hit different. If you order from here, you're gonna need at least some salt, garlic powder, and pepper to get your food right. Their prices here, however, are great and the portion sizes are generous. If you're looking for meat, they have it but you're on your own for flavor. read more

As usual, service was fast and attentive. My glass never gets low for another fillip! Today I had the Turkey Club. Delicious. The food here never disappoints. read more

I recently had the pleasure of dining at a local BBQ spot in Clinton, MD called "Texas Ribs & BBQ". This BBQ spot can be found off of Old Branch Ave. They serve your standard BBQ items such as collard greens, corn on the cob, pulled pork, ribs etc. Unfortunately the collard greens were out when I went. I tried two appetizers onion rings and loaded potato skins. The onion rings were decent and the potato skins were loaded with bacon bit, chilli and cheese which tasted GREAT. My main meal was a sliced brisket sandwich with sides of potato salad and corn on the cob. The Brisket sandwich had decent flavor with a good smoke ring ;however, the meat was dry and not juicy. The potato salad was on the bland side as it needed more seasoning to have a more southern authentic taste. The corn on the cob was spot on and tasted fabulous with a little butter. A worthy mention was the two homemade BBQ sauces which had one spicy and the other one more sweet. I would definitely come back here for BBQ as the place had good service, decent food and it was very clean. I rate this spot 3 out of 5. read more

My family found this restaurant six years ago when we were living on JBA and have loved it since! Multiple types of BBQ--ribs, brisket, chicken, pulled pork, grilled smoked sausage--and really delicious sides--the mac and cheese, hush puppies, and collard greens are family favorites of ours. The restaurant and bar are decorated with a fun western theme (we're originally from out west so we know what it should look like!) and the staff are all friendly and helpful. Good speed of service too. Highly recommend! read more

Well. Not sure what is Texas about this place. I can say it's a very neighborhood place. I walked in and went to the "bar area" entire place turned and gave me "ya ain't from around here are ya" look. There were a couple empty spots so I asked if someone was sitting here and with out even looking up was told ya. Ok. Asked about other spot. "Someone sitting there too" almost left because it's not a welcoming place but I was hungry. Got a table. Order the sampler with ribs and pork chop. Came out as ribs and chicken. Not a deal breaker looked good. Ribs not great. Way over done. Some what "crunchy" chicken ok. Not great. Other issue is it is ridiculously loud. The bar folks screaming at each other sitting next to each other. Not sure why you have to yell if you are sitting next to them but I guess it's a thing. Food came out fast. Service was good. When I left guess what two bar chairs were still empty. Yep. I wasn't a regular and wasn't welcome at the bar. O well I guess they didn't want diversity at the bar. Probably won't go back. Some other local places to try next time in town. read more

Texas Ribs has been the local GO-TO place for many years. It serves the 'regulars', military from JBAAF and any lucky person who happens to seek out a new place to eat. Texas Ribs also hosts many kinds of events, from catering to in restaruant receptions and ceremonies. The informal setting is comfortable and clean. I have yet to eat anythink that wasn't absolutely delicious. Some of my many favorite are the Reuben Sandwich, cod, BBQ, chicken and all salads. Texas Ribs staff is attentive, kind and respectful. The owner makes himself available if needed. He often helps with the busy lunch schedule. read more

The pork spare ribs is so good fresh grilled flavor I loved them I ended up getting some deal with chicken ribs and brisket the brisket was not tender to me the chicken was like smoked I was expecting it to be fried idk why I opt for that knowing I like everything extra tender but the ribs stole the show. The Mac n cheese gave me a more kfc feeling I would come back just for the ribs. Lol do not get the Mac if ur expecting the kind you would get from ur grandma on thanks giving read more

We love Texas Ribs! The meats are outstanding and they're adding new items regularly. Try the baby back ribs. The smoked chicken is awesome, too. The brisket melts in your mouth! read more

I have happily eaten here at least half a dozen times. I have eaten many of the offerings particularly their Bar B Que ribs, beans and chicken, all really good As a 7th generation South Texan and an older barbecue family chef myself you will be happy to have found this gem. No wonder the President's air life wing eats here, it's the best! read more

This restaurant has been in the community for decades but I'm shocked that no one has complained about the incredibly small sides offered when taking take-out! Ribs are good but side portions are minimal. I will not be returning based solely on what seemed to be insufficient side portions as it pertains to value. The side portions are the same amount as the side of barbecue sauce. Not to mention that the reason I selected the restaurant is because I saw a YouTube video of President Obama eating there but found no picture posted on the wall in the restaurant! I get that they don't have too but I would guess since 90% of their guests are African Americans..... you might want too, but again they don't have too.....but I did see an image of John Wayne......interesting isn't it? read more

To put it bluntly, this food is trash! Did take out the other day for ribs. They were dried out and tasteless; obviously they were sitting around all days -- not fresh at all. I would rather starve than to eat here again. Word to the wise, save your money. Giving one bc yelp wouldn't allow me to put no stars. And I hope the owner sees this review too read more

Still some of the best ribs and brisket around, they have gotten a little pricey, but food still excellent.

I'll be honest... I found my love at another BBQ place in the area and was skeptical to try something new. Well... I'm happy to report that I was not disappointed! The food was fantastic! My 2, 4 & 5 year olds were happy. My wife loved it. The half rack of ribs was huge! Ask for their special BBQ sauces, especially if you like unique and spicy flavors. With that said, the standout here was not the food but the service. The staff was beyond accommodating and incredibly friendly. The team at Texas Ribs and BBQ should be proud of the experience that they provide to the community! read more

The food is absolutely gooood. I've been going there for quite sometime. So glad it's close to my home. Service is excellent. I've had quite a few things off the menu. All are good. Eat in or take outdoors read more

We visited on 3/7/2022 on our way home to Southern Maryland. We had just been to Grand Prairie and Dallas Texas. The service provided by our server Chrissy reminded us of how nice and friendly the people were at a bbq place in Texas, we had visited while away. She was super enthusiastic about her job and her customers and went out of her way to ensure we were happy. Well done Chrissy! We hope to come back and see you. The food was excellent with generous portions and cooked to perfection. We've been coming here over the years when my husband was active duty AF at Andrews and we have never been disappointed. Keep doing what your doing Texas Ribs and BBQ! read more

Let me start off by saying that I came here on a limited time crunch and ordered a simple sloppy joe with fries. The service was good and the food came out fast. The sloppy joe was average, nothing extraordinary but good. Now the baked beans were a different story. I like spicy food and they had some kick to them. They came in a small container with my lunch though. It may have been 2 to 3 spoonfuls. They place was packed and I am sure if I had more time and ordered something else it would have be rated much higher, but I can only go off my experience and I tasted. read more
