Pretty good!!! The brisket was on the greasy end and had no flavor on its own (I prefer not having to drench my BBQ in sauce), but the ribs were excellent and we really appreciated the more unique items on the menu. The buttery Burnt Ends and the (pepper-jelly glazed?!) stuffed Texas Torpedo are definitely some reasons to come back! The prices were quite steep but comparable to any decent BBQ spot with the economy these days lol ($50 for a somewhat filling lunch for 2 people)... But it's certainly convenient and surprisingly good for a grocery store!

Pretty good barbecue. Good but not great. They can't help that they're inside a grocery store, so the vibe is a little odd. The people working there could not be nicer though, clearly trained to be energetic and positive and pulling it off nicely. Overall I'd place this ahead of the chains like Dickey's or Rudy's, but not quite to the level of the best on this side of town like Corkscrew, Tejas, or Bar-A.

Great service! Great prices! The food was good! Overall if I'm in the area I'd stop here again! Ordered the brisket baked potato and was not disappointed! A huge loaded potato with moist brisket that should've been two meals! The sausage was ok, but would pass next time. The only downside was I ordered the peach cobbler, but did not receive it. Also my fault for not checking my bag before I left... Overall would return!

incredibly expensive for the plate. I got the three meat plate (supposed to be $21 but was $32 in surprise surcharges) and in the end, I received less than a pound of meat. the cashier was also unhelpful and stated that the Texas torpedo was legendary, however it turned out to be a SINGLE lukewarm soggy jalepano popper. save your money and go elsewhere. heck even, just buy the ingredients from H-E-B and make it yourself for a 1/10 of the price. Raw hamburger meat feels like a good, affordable, and tasty option after this experience.

The BBQ is amazing, and so close to home. The meat is tender and tasty. My favorite is the Mac and cheese. It tastes home made. Their cobbler is pretty good as well. If you sign up with True Texas BBQ you can get periodic texts for specials of money off or special deals. It's worth a try to see if you like it. It's in an HEB store and conveniently located at Tamina road (2978 area) and 1488.

I went yesterday and the food was amazing. I will definitely be back for more. Ambience was great, nice and peaceful.

Now- you listen up. I drove an hour for this bbq as soon as I found out it was that near me. I've driven 2.5 hours for it in the past to Austin and eaten it outside in the Texas sun. This in my humble opinion is so damn underrated. Easily top 5 bbq place in Texas. Brisket was amazing. Burnt ends terrific! The Texas torpedos fantastic! You gotta try it.

BBBQ, what's the extra B for? BYOBB. Apart from the Red River way down in League City this joint provides the most reliable and best (easily accessible) BBBQ I have found in the greater Houston area which makes it an easy favourite for repeat visits. Similar to Rudy's as a no frills, fast-very-casual order at the counter type experience; but overall better in many ways. And doesn't require canceling all plans, packing a backpack of road trip snacks, and telling your children you love them in case you don't come back just so you can stand in line for seven hours at that one over in Pearland everyone is always going on about to justify spending an entire day standing in line to get (if they don't prematurely run out of) meats. There are meatheads, and then there are meatheads the way that term was used in the Back to the Future films. The True Texas has two types of sauces you pump yourself into those little plastic cups next to the soda fountain: one is a derivative of Rudy's hot (the redder, thinner looking sauce) and the other is a much thicker sweeter type distantly reminiscent of Stubbs' sweet heat but even thicker than that one. The two types of sauces are wonderful offerings to complement whether it is chicken, brisket, or other. This joint is located just inside the HEB beyond the main entrance in the front of the store, which depending on the path you take in you might have walked through the patio with all of the BBBQ grilles outside already to get you in the mood for a trill taste of Texas. There are posted instructions to leave your cart outside of the queue to order but you will still see nearly all people with their cart inside the queue if they have shopped first before ordering. You order and pay once you have the pole position in the queue then you swing over to the "interior" of the resto to git your own sauces, drinks, etc. and wait for your order to be up at the side window. Minor complaints include them running out of chicken all of the time (gurrrrrrl, if it is that popular just make some more and then you can sell more!) and the lean brisket not always being as lean as you would believe the word indicates, although since this is the suburbs of Houston perhaps they mean "lean" as in you know, how the rappers use it these days. If true, you should also pick up some Sprite, styrofoam cups, and give soundcloud rapper codenamed Lil Marco a call for the other thing. But, a taste of this BBBQ is a taste of Texas, trill (true) Texas in fact. Especially the chicken. They really had to do it to the chicken. Which makes the few rare times you are early enough to grab one a win in any book so it is your turn for the tasting. Apart from minor complaints everything else is aces down at the True Texas. The teens working the "order's up" window are always incredibly polite as they double check everything you ordered is there as it is supposed to be before you are two towns over realising they forgot the last B in the BBBQ order. Me as a cowboy: [reads smudged writing on hand] Yeee-huh?
