Where tough bbq meets poor and grumpy service. The only positive is that I can do some grocery shopping while I wait

I have dined here many times. Service is excellent and it is a nice place to eat. Food taste great! My only complaint is that even though the price per item goes up and up the quantity goes down and down. Alas I have decided to move on. I can receive a much larger quantity for the same or lesser price. Often I have contested the amount of brisket on a sandwich because half of it was pure fat !!! The bun has been reduced more and more and now it is so small I think I am receiving finger food. This is really reflected by the small amount of people eating here. read more

True Texas BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Huntsville, Texas

Tried to order food last night and they said they only had brisket. no other meat. like what is happening. how are you not cooking enough food to last until you close. This happens allll the time. Like 8 people in line were turned away due bad management read more

Everything was perfect. I've been to many HEB True Texas BBQs but this one was by far the BEST. We had ribs, turkey and moist brisket. All the meat was cooked to perfection. The rib meat came right off the bone, the turkey was moist and seasoned perfectly, and the brisket was perfect as well. read more

the service was great and fast. self serve tea and lemonades are good. the macaroni & cheese was good but the price for the portion size is high. read more

Keyanna gone get yall right everytime A1 customer service and recommends good food every time

Brisket is way too fat. The flavour is good and the service is quick and friendly. Normally, the brisket isn't so fatty, so I am giving it 3 stars insteas of 1. read more

Food was not Texas bbq to me it did not taste good. Greens were to salty. The service was great no problems there.

Boy they've gone downhill. I mean it's bad. It used to be a good place to get decent bbq like it was never going to win competitions but it was a fair deal. Now, I'd say never go to the HEB bbq place in Huntsville. Never. I paid over $22 for a 2 meat ate with 2 sides and what did I get? I got 4 slices of room temperature brisket that was a sickly light grey and slimy ah. The bean and greens were just water and it was all so gross I couldn't finish it. read more

Love the brisket beans! Special going today for free blueberry cobbler with the purchase. Would have been great ala mode read more

EXCELLENT! We loved the service and the food even more! My wife and I had turkey that was super good along with a fruit cups. Like other Yelpers have said, it was surprising to find such super food at a restaurant in a grocery store. read more

Stopped in on our way back home from Galveston. The BBQ nachos were awesome! Chicken was dry. Brisket was great though! Not a fan of the potato salad. But the brisket beans - a must have! read more

I cannot believe how great this bbq is. I am hooked on their ribs, fatty brisket and pulled pork. They are cooked to perfection. The staff is always very sweet and they rarely mess up orders. The only complaint I have is sometimes the portions for the price are not the best, like the brisket chili. Other than that ,5 stars. read more

I never would've thought I'd find good barbecue inside a grocery store, but we did. I'm driving through from Fort Worth and someone in the car says he's hungry. So I gave him instructions to find an open bbq pit in Huntsville. And he finds this one. I didn't know they had beef ribs. They we meaty, juicy, and oh so good. I might just stop here next time I'm heading north on I-45. read more

BBQ was alright but very pricey. Nothing really special about the service that I can recall but it was ok. Dining area was clean. No complaints but honestly for the money, probably wont go back. read more

So I was a little apprehensive to try this BBQ bra cause I've been called a BBQ snob. Well this place although they are inside a H‑E‑B is probably one of the best BBQ places in town. Taste amazing and the staff is awesome. read more

This cute little gem is hidden inside HEB!! The layout and decorations are super cute! I'm not a huge Barbeque eater, but my husband loves it so we stopped in for a quick bite! The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable! I tried the sausage and it was delicious!! The Barbecue sauce was very good as well! My husband wasn't a fan of the brisket. It was very fatty. The Mac and cheese lacked in flavor and the potato salad was just ok. Hated to leave a negative review but we are just being honest. read more

True Texas BBQ - Cute eating area!! - Barbeque Near Me - Huntsville, Texas

I stopped here specifically to try the torpedos. Based on the size the cashier told me they were, I ordered one. It was, at the most, half the size he had told me. To get a second one, it was going to be an hour and a half because they would have to cook another one. Apparently the one they handed me was the only one they had prepared. What barbecue place expects a customer to wait an hour and a half for them to cook the order. I just got a refund. I love H-E-B but this was an epic fail. read more

I never thought we would make this our 'go to' BBQ spot in Huntsville but it's beat out 3 others. The lean sliced brisket is our favorite. We always get it to go and my husband gets it all the time. read more

When I first moved to Huntsville in the beginning of 2020, True Texas BBQ was the first place I've ever ate at in town. I must say I was honestly really surprised at this gem of a place. Till this day, this is still my favorite BBQ place in town. It can be a little pricey, but you get what you pay for, and that's moist meats. I always get the brisket and ribs for my meats and they never fail to disappoint, not even once in 2 years. read more

Food was offensively inedible! The brisket was salty with no flavor and drenched in grease! The bbq sauce was standardly subpar. The mac and cheese was chalky and bland. The green beans also had no seasoning whatsoever! Tomatoes are NOT a seasoning! This food tasted like hospital food. Sad and very dissatisfied and dissapointed. The staff were sweet!...the one 1 star is for them. I expect better from HEB. Update- immediately after writing this review, got diarrhea read more

Numbers...... Food: 5 out of 10.... I was highly disappointed in the food I received from here. I got the Brisket nachos and you can't fathom the disappointment because I heard some many good things. The sausage was extremely dry... How do you mess up sausage? The Brisket Nachos were just drenched in grease. Maybe I came on an off day and I'll have to come back but as of now It's on the maybe try again in 6 months for me. Cleanliness 9 out of 10 Very clean and they pride themselves in that. I loved that about the place. Service: 9 out of 10 No complaints here. Very friendly and helpful staff. Would I Return? Maybe in 6 months read more

Spectacular BBQ joint located inside the HEB. The ribs were juicy and peeled straight off the bone, the turkey was juicy and SO good, the Texas BBQ was spicy and delicious, complimented the food very well, you can have a brew or have a regular drink, overall it was a spectacular dining experience at a good cost read more

True Texas BBQ - Great decor, even better food - Barbeque Near Me - Huntsville, Texas

See all

We have been to BBQ places all over Texas, and the brisket here is one of our favorites. We also put the brisket beans at the top of our list as well. To us, this is True Texas BBQ, as it's name states. Personally, we feel the quality of the brisket should weigh heaviest in a restaurant review like this one. Yes, it's inside a grocery store, so don't expect an environment like a Texas Roadhouse or Salt Grass Steakhouse. Just pick up some brisket, take it home and enjoy some mighty fine Texas BBQ. read more

First time for me. Arrived to this location at 6:53pm just to my disappointment they were out of turkey! After contemplating to leave I instead ordered chicken, sliced brisket , beans and green beans to go After trying everything out the food was absolutely delicious minus the green beans that had way to many diced tomato to my liking. Although they didn't have what I originally went in for I am not disappointed for the amount of food and the quality of food I received. Will definitely go back. read more

A hidden gem inside HEB that will hopefully become a mainstay of locations near my home. Fatty brisket rivals Rudy's and Woody's and definitely try the brisket beans. Also had the sauced chopped brisket, which was a great option if you like some added flavor. BBQ sauces were good, but the meat didn't need it. Taking off a star for cleanliness. Need to have someone cleaning the tables/floor. Worth a try for sure! read more

Ordered lean brisket received fatty brisket, my girlfriend ordered a chopped brisket sandwich that was not good and ended up making her throw up. May give it a second shot sometime, but very disappointed. read more

I stopped here on mi way to houstonia and 8 upon pork ribs. The sides are also Fantabulous. I love this little place!

So bomb. I'm soooo tempted to get a pulled pork sandwich every time I go grocery shopping! & the sweet tea is to die for

Staff is so friendly. Ashleigh was just a darling. Food was good. Will definitely be back!

Who would expect to find good barbecue in a grocery store? The thing is - it's better than some restaurants. The sides are way better than some! And what other establishment has $1 beer all day on Tuesday! Again $1 beer all Tuesday and it's great beer not junk. Thank you! read more

BBQ was just ok..ordered lean brisket..received fatty cap..sausage was dry and casing hard to chew..requested sausage unsliced..received sliced even though receipt confirmed my request..why is there an upcharge for pork ribs on meat plate?..no facilities to wash your hands after eating ribs with sticky sauce..come on, it's bbq! read more
