    The Brisket House
    Linda K.

    My to go place for brisket cravings. Brisket was nice and juicy. The service is always on point. There's usually not a lot of people that dine in you will see people pick up to go. It's a chill spot to go and have some good old Texas barbecue. On our way out, we saw Wayne the owner and the pit master. Such a nice outgoing guy.

    I just recently started ordering from this place and let me just say, they definitely deliver. I LOVE their tasty food. I'm currently expecting so I asked for extra pickles and onions and they were so sweet to include way more than expected lol I will definitely be coming here more often. Their brownies and Sweet Tea are very good too

    Brisket, ribs and turkey.  Amazing
    Robert S.

    Being from Cali, it's hard to find really good bbq. Stopped here before heading to the airport and was cautiously optimistic based on Yelp reviews. Place was empty, uh oh. Ordered a 3 meat plate of St. Louis ribs, brisket and turkey with collard greens and baked beans. Wow, so delicious! I think the best bbq I've ever had. Especially loved the perfect tenderness of the ribs and not too smoky flavor. Everything was excellent. Hope one day I can return.

    Baby Back Rib Plate, Baked Beans, Fried okra, and house sauce
    Destinyfourme P.

    Oh wow, the food was delicious! The ribs were moist and tender. Baked beans were seasoned well with a tangy of sweetness of brown sugar. Fried okra was crispy with the right amount of crunchiness. Good meal for Memorial Day dinner for two. And servers were pleasant and efficient.

    Ribs, Sausage, Brisket
    Dane S.

    The dining room is large and very clean. Prices were good. My family and I ordered several different means and sides. These brisket had a good smoke ring and nice lite flavor. Personally I like the sausage the best. My daughter thought the ribs had a really nice flavor and were tender. She also thought the fried okra was some of the best she had eaten. The collard greens were well flavored and not overly salty. Good texture. Definitely would eat here again.

    WELCOME HOME SON! Hey Howdy Hey!!! Are you looking for some great tasting BBQ today??? If so, then you must visit The Brisket House! When my son told me that he was coming home on leave from the Navy and that he wanted some good ol' Texas Down-South, Mouth-Watering, Lip-Smacking, Finger-Licking BBQ, I instantly thought of this place because it is all that and more! This is my second review on this establishment and I must say that I find it quite surprising that this place is not jumping with loads of customers whenever I visit. The BBQ here is full of delicious, savor-able, flavorful, and delectable goodness!!! My family and I truly enjoyed ourselves as we celebrated my son's return home while conversing, laughing, and getting fat-full of their appetizing and tantalizing BBQ. The brisket was tender, moist, and juicy. My son ordered the chopped beef sandwich combo with fries and it was loaded with chopped beef. They were very generous with it. The BBQ chicken, pulled pork, loaded baked potato, BBQ wings, and fried catfish were all equally delicious! This place does not miss a beat. The cornbread was huge and sweet like a piece of cake and the sides were splendid as well. The collard greens are full of flavor, the fried okra tastes like fresh okra and not frozen and is fried to perfection, the Mac and cheese is cheesy deliciousness done just right not watery and loose but a semi-thick cheesy sauce, the BBQ beans were flavorful but a little on the cold side, and the fries are seasoned well, not too salty but just right. So the only complaint from one of my family members is that her beans were served cold instead of hot and my daughter complained that her BBQ chicken was served cold as well. Other than those two small fumbles, everything was perfect! Oh and their BBQ sauce is absolutely delicious! However, I have to take away one star from my previous rating, because it's absolutely imperative that cooked foods are served at the correct temperatures to keep customers from getting sick. Service was great! Our main server was Raya and she was amazing. Her personality was cheerful, friendly, and welcoming! She took care of all of our needs and brought our food out to us with help from some of the other staff members. We were seated in their private party room area which was extremely spacious and clean! I highly recommend this establishment to anyone who is looking for some good 'ol Down-South Texas BBQ! You will not be disappointed! The prices are reasonable and they have a variety of food combinations and selections ranging from their 1-meat, 2-meat, and 3-meat plates, BBQ sandwich combos, kids meals, tailgate packages, desserts, sides, and more! Parking is plentiful and is located in the back of the restaurant.

    Inside is large and spacious. No one was here hardly when I went. The food was okay. No options for sauce I was aware of. I wasn't a fan of the one that they gave me. The loaded potato looked great but tasted old. Overall it was just okay to me. It was overpriced and pretty basic.

    Lunch is served! I was impressed with the customer service, they are on point. You take a seat and they bring you your plate. They do come back periodically to check on you and offer you jalapeños and stuff. The flavor is great! Just like my grandpa's bar-b-q, quality smoked and seasoned. It's worth the price. Unlimited fountain refills. Great big windows and TVs to watch sport games. They are across from North Oaks Forest.

Very tender. Current Best: Black's BBQ, Austin, TX Dry/Lean Brisket: Not rated. Pretty dry. But I don't love lean brisket to begin with. Current Best: Black's Sausage: Not rated.

Current Best: Datil Sausage at Woodpecker's BBQ, Saint John's County, FL Baked Beans: Way better than I expected (and way better than they look, since they look like standard baked beans). I was glad I got them. Brussels: Better than expected - very tender, and the glaze/sauce they pour over is a great compliment. Overall, an outstanding meal. Easy to park. Not too crowded.

A 2-year Michellin star BBQ joint was a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon. My friends and I got there around 10am and were lucky enough to grab a number. The number secures your spot in line but don't worry if you show up and they run out, there's a spot on the porch where the non-number line starts. We ordered moist brisket, garlic sausage, and the beef rib. For sides, we went with mac and cheese and beans. Everything was superb! The brisket melted in your mouth, no knife needed. The sausage had a nice snap to it and get great flavor. The bark on the beef rib was *chef's kiss*. The mac and cheese was creamy while the beans had a nice sweet and tangy flavor. The service is also great! While we were eating, staff would regularly check all of the tables to check if anyone needed anything. The staff taking our order also chatted with us about other BBQ spots we've been to. Everything was such a great experience and the quality of the food is 100/10!

We ordered brisket, garlic sausage, pork ribs, the whole chicken, baked beans, Mac and cheese, and apple cobbler. My favorites were the pork ribs and apple cobblers.

When we got our order to the room we were missing one side that we ordered. We got Mac n cheese, green beans and potato salad with a brisket/smoked chicken combo and a brisket/ribs. I was shocked to see two pieces of brisket and a chicken breast for $28. Maybe it was an off night but the quality just wasn't there. All the food was cold (our fault bc we ordered it for delivery) and was lacking flavor.

My partner had the brisket sandwich with potato salad and a small helping of pickles and pickled red onions and I had the pulled pork tacos. My partner said the brisket sandwich was okay, but we both agreed that the potato salad was fantastic! The potato salad was way better than the one at Pappas Barbecue. The taste of the pulled pork tacos was great, but it was honestly too wet and made the flour tortillas too soggy and there was way too much coleslaw on top. I feel like if Killen's is going to serve pulled pork tacos there needs to be three things done. 1. Serve the tacos with an option of corn tortillas because I feel corn tortillas would've worked better to give a great contrast/pairing with the sweetness of the pulled pork and sauce. 2. Serve the corn/flour tortillas on the side so that they don't get soggy and wet. 3. There are some things that just don't belong on a taco of any kind and that's coleslaw. My partner and I also tasted the banana pudding and to say it was divine is an understatement. What I really like about this pudding was that you could taste real bananas in this pudding and it had been mixed well all together. Our total was $80 after tipping, which is a little pricey for some of the items, but honestly I would definitely come back to Killen's Barbecue when I was in the mood for barbecue.
