    Come for lunch when the BBQ is freshest. The meats fall off the bones. Don't let the shed ambiance scare you away. The service was soooo helpful. I came in near closing on a rainy night and they took extra time to make me a perfect plate. I even ordered an extra brisket sandwich to go which they took the time to trim the fat off if you desired. The meats definitely carried a strong unmistakable Smokey taste. The sauce was very peppery so you might want to sample that first before fully committing.

    Happened upon this BBQ spot when I googled for food near me Manor. While standing in a short line to order, I saw plates of BBQ going by. The generous portions of meat and sides that looked great! I wasn't too hungry so I ordered the Sliced Brisket Sandwich. It was stacked with lean smoked beef. The brisket was slightly dry but the homemade sauce made up for it. I will try a plate next time

    Still a favorite spot of mine in Manor. Elgin sausage never disappoints and the brisket was nice and juicy this week

    Great service, good was a 8/10! The Big Red soda machine was stacked with top tier sodas!

    If you find yourself in Manor, this is probably the best barbecue around. It is also probably the most rustic establishment as well. This establishment looks like a cobbled together shanty with a smoker out back. Once inside you'll notice the interior is much like the exterior. There are six tables to sit at in the small room where the walls are covered in old license plates. I guess you might say this rustic look only adds to the charm of the place, the locals seem to think so. They do have a gravel drive up window, which is what most people use. Barbecue is not the only thing they serve here. There is also fried chicken and catfish along with some daily specials. I do like the fact they offer a three meat combo plate instead of everything being à la cart. The brisket has a pronounced smoke ring, and they serve Meyers sausage which is tender and juicy. They also serve baby back ribs. The pinto beans and slaw are pretty average, but the green beans and corn are out of a can. I also recommend the fried chicken plate, it's something they actually do quite well. All the food here is surprisingly affordable considering what barbecue goes for these days. Be sure to get some of their barbecue sauce to go, it's some of the best around. And lastly, there's no tip screen, but there is a tip jar. The photos featured here will bring it into proper perspective.

    Stopped here on a drive and ordered brisket sandwiches. They were really good, I would stop here again.

    Back a month later, still a 5 star place in my book . I will definitely be back. Excellent bar b q very reasonable prices, what more could you want. Back a few more months and now they have beef ribs!!! Still 5 stars!!!

    Dry terrible food.

    Place serves you old dry Brisket!! Terrible food no flavor just smoked. I went there 10 mins ago! Never again. Boooo... should be proud of your food given the. Competition around. Again place is terrible.

    Sausage, pork ribs, brisket, and sides.

    This BBQ was super affordable and there were plenty of choices for meats and sides and desserts. Let's start with the meat. Our party of two ordered 4 pork ribs, 1/2lb of brisket and 2 sausages. Let's go from worst to first. The sausage was dry and had zero flavor. We do not recommend. The ribs were decent, although also a bit dry. The brisket was also dry, but decent enough. good. The dryness can often be solved for with sauce, but the BBQ sauce here is seriously bad. If that's an in house recipe, they should go buy sauce commercially. The sides we ordered were mac and cheese, potato salad, and coleslaw. The mac was pretty good. They pepper it up here. Not an issue for us, but if you're not down for it, then avoid that side. The cole slaw was in need of more mayo. It's a theme here - the food is dry. The potato salad was solid. Let's get to the service. Nice guys manning the place and they were super welcoming. The vibe is roadhouse shack. We dig that sort of thing, so it was a plus for us. Price was incredibly inexpensive. For all that food, it was $39 and we left a tip. Bottom line for us is if this BBQ joint were in most any other state, most would dig it. But, we're in Texas, y'all. Gotta up your game.

    I was really impressed with our meal! Everything was juicy delicious with the exception of the pork ribs. They were a tad dry.

    The best brisket I have ever had and the ribs just fell off the bone we can't wait to go back for more! We are outside on a small picnic table and they were so kind to bring water out for our dogs!

Meat--The meat was on the dry side, but not too dry. The meat had a LOT of fat on it to be so dry. Still very good though, great flavor and great crust. Very tasty. Sauce-very good. Balanced sweet and tangy, not on the sweet side, really likes it. Sides-I got green beans, they were not from a can, field fresh, definitely not overcooked, might could use a little more cooking. Nicely seasoned but could use a little salt. I also got Mac n cheese and it was good, I've had better but it was a nice flavor and I got a piece of toasty crust which I like and it was good. Dessert- I got peach Cobbler. I didn't like the crust. It's a cake-like crust and I prefer the pie like crust. The peaches were fresh and not from a can, not overly sweet, good flavor, but again, no cake for me. They don't have Coke Zero only Diet Coke. I did go inside to use the restroom. I like a bbq place to smell like a bbq place. This one had a stale restaurant stay.

Luckily, there was no line, so I was able to order right away. Both the indoor and outdoor seating areas are really nice. If I hadn't been on the road, I probably would have stayed and hung out a little longer, but I ended up getting takeout instead. The Tex-Czech sausage was one of the most delicious sausages I've had at a BBQ restaurant. I absolutely loved the melted cheese inside the sausage. The brisket also hit the spot, and the sauce was amazing. My only wish, or small complaint, is the portion size. It feels like shrinkflation may be part of it, and it's definitely not cheap. But for a once-in-a-while treat, Micklethwait is absolutely worth it.

This spot was a standout on our Austin BBQ tour and completely lived up to the hype. The brisket and sausage were both incredible, but the brisket especially stole the show. It was easily my favorite in Austin. The bark had the perfect texture and flavor, while the meat itself stayed unbelievably juicy and tender. Every bite was exactly what you hope for when you think of great Texas BBQ. The sausage was just as impressive, packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. You can tell there's real attention to detail here! If you're putting together a BBQ tour in Austin, this place deserves a spot on your list. Part of me wants to gatekeep it, but it's just too good not to recommend!!

We got the brisket, pulled duck, house sausage, house boudin, the crawfish cornbread stuffing, and the mac & cheese. I think the brisket was my favorite, but I also liked the boudin--it was my first time having it. We also wanted to try the duck because you don't see that at many barbecue places it was good. It had a nice citrusy marinade. The mac & cheese was really good too. They were sold out of the dessert, but I would've gotten that as well. This food truck is located at the Austin Beer Works on Springdale. There's lots of outdoor seating and indoor seating as well.

A friend recommended this spot, when I scoped it out I discovered it was New Orleans-themed BBQ, very intriguing. Everything is à la carte, so I built myself a little sampler: brisket, pork sausage, mac and cheese, and the cornbread dressing. Brisket: Moist, well‑seasoned, and wonderfully fatty. It's not the heavy smoke you get from classic Texas brisket, but the tenderness and flavor more than make up for it. Sausage: Absolutely massive. And absolutely NOLA. It was a cajun style Boudin sausage packed with rice, spices, and that honestly almost a full meal on its own. I took home half of it for leftovers. Cornbread Dressing: They described it as a crawfish boil in one bite, and they weren't lying. Sweet, salty, and full of bayou flavor. Pimento Mac & Cheese: The richest mac and cheese I've ever tasted. Some might call it salty; to me it's just the natural intensity of pimento. It was bold, cheesy, and unapologetic. The Cajun mustard ties everything together: full of spices, a little sweet, and exactly what I want with smoked meats. Service was fast, the place wasn't busy, and the whole experience felt easy in the best way. Cajun cooking is all about spice and flavor, and Parish delivers on both. A new contender on my BBQ list.
