I picked up chicken halves for supper, tough chicken and pretty dry. Ordered brisket beans, I got onion beans--no brisket, just cooked onions and bean juice and a few beans. If you don't have any beans just say so, don't charge 5 or 6 dollars for what's in the bottom of the pot. Anyway, very dissatisfied! read more

The good: I've tried the chicken, sausage, fatty brisket, pulled pork, cuban sandwich and frito bowl with pulled pork. The good: The chicken, sausage, fatty brisket. The sides I've had are also all very good: Brisket beans, coleslaw, macaroni. I happen to know firsthand that they have very high standards with their food quality, throwing out a lot of food each day to ensure that they only serve the fresh stuff (good news for bums who eat at the dumpster buffet). The three sauce options are also pleasant, although the spicy one is the only good one as far as I'm concerned. They offer some decent beers on tap! Plus, it's kind of nice to shop in HEB, put in your BBQ order, go pay for your groceries, and have your food waiting for you. The bad: Cuban sandwich (everything is wrong on it, from the bread to the thickness of the meat to the meat itself to the way the mustard is spread to the cheese) and the frito bowl (Not enough scallions, nothing to really make it more unique than meat with some fritos piled on top). It's hit or miss with the customer service, they really need to get more consistent with that, it's very shameful on their management. Overall, the high quality of barbeque, sides, sauce and convenience of location make this a wonderful option! read more

Been here previously and it's been great, today the staff must have been having a bad day; uninterested and unapologetic. Despite getting most of my order wrong, once straightened out, the food is pretty good. About as good as it gets in Midland, which may be unfortunate depending your expectations for Texas. read more

This little restaurant inside the grocery store is packed with flavor. The workers were really friendly and funny and made the food taste even better highly recommend and I'll be back for some more soon read more

Way better bbq for bbq that's like "fast food". Orders are normally fast and food 9/10 great. Had some sides over done before but really can't beat the great taste and price is not as bad as you would think. read more

Taste is consistently great. We love all the food offered from this restaurant, but our family's favorite has to be the fatty brisket because it is so soft, moist, and tasty. Good stuff! read more

This is the restaurant now inside of HEB. I ducked into the store for and groceries and find this awesome joint at the same time. I ordered a loaded baked potato with the sauced chopped brisket. It was delicious, good price and pretty sizable. The brisket was terrific, loaded with flavor and tender. I can only imagine the other meal are just as good. Not to mention that the HEB is equally great for a grocery store. read more

Super disappointed with True Texas BBQ. First off, let me start by saying they have delicious bbq. Their portion sizes aren't that great compared to the money you spend, but I love their sliced brisket, macaroni and cheese, and their cream corn, so we keep coming back. With that being said, I honestly don't want to come back anymore. I get frequent cravings for bbq. Lately, every single time I come, they have a white board with a long list of things they are out of... potatoes are usually among those items. We love bbq potatoes, so that's a BIG disappointment. Monday we had to grab a few items at Heb, and I noticed they only had like 3 items they were out of, so we decided to stay and eat. I have a family of 5 and we spent over $50. We ordered a meat plate, 2 potatoes, and 2 kids meals. About 10 minutes after ordering I was called up to the pick up area to be told they were out of potatoes and couldn't fulfill that part of my order. Instead of just swapping it out for something else and making it right, they made me go up front to refund the potatoes and reorder. I had to stand in a long line and wait for my turn to order (yet again). I ended up getting two large sandwiches and one side. It was more than the potatoes themselves, so i had to spend more money. I just felt like it was extremely poor customer service. Not only can you not keep up with demand, but you're also going to charge a customer more when you can't give them what they ordered. I was extremely aggravated. The cashier told me that the higher ups give them a certain amount of food to cook and once they run out then that's it. She suggested I come before 5, because after 5 they start running out. I'm sorry, but that's absurd. If you can't keep up with supply and demand, and you can't hardly operate during dinner hours, then you shouldn't even be open in the first place. Shame on the higher ups for running a business this way. Customer service is seriously lacking, and I'm super aggravated that I had to pay the difference when they couldn't give me what I ordered. On top of all that, I had to wait additional time for them to make my second order. When they called me up i had to explain that I never received the first part of my order. She then points to my order sitting over in the corner. It had been there the entire time getting cold. Seriously??? I plan to find another bbq place next time I get a craving. read more

Green beans are good but that's about the only thing. The lean brisket is still fatty. Honestly, I wouldn't bother.

Was ok but not great, ran out of most meats at 7pm. Quick service, and pretty decent Q.

A really good bbq place inside HEB. The brisket is really moist and the cream corn is really good. So far, this is one of the best bbq place that I've ever tried. read more

Wow - I was not expecting a BBQ inside a grocery store to be this good! Employees were friendly and helpful and we were greeted and served very quickly. I had the chopped brisket sandwich and potato salad. The brisket was spicy and not fatty at all (usually my pet peeve) and the potato salad was mild with crunchy celery pieces. Really delicious and filling meal! If I lived closer I would definitely be a regular. read more

Pretty good! The meat was a bit dry but overall it was good and they have a good strawberry lemonade!!! I got a brisket sandwich!

Would eat here twice a week and the food was excellent but something has recently happened to this location. I called to place an order and was hung up on twice . I then tried again 15 minutes later and had the rudest person answer the phone who acted annoyed since I was wanting to get a couple of the beef ribs. I guess I'll take my business somewhere else. read more

Not bad BBQ for a grocery store. Got a two meat plate with lean brisket and pork ribs. Knocked a star off for no beef rib in west Texas.. lame. Brisket beans and green beans are canned but tasted good. Pork ribs are actually my favorite and the lean brisket was a little too dry but good smoke flavor. Regular BBQ sauce is thick and spicy which I like. Blackberry coobler was ok too. read more

True Texas BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Midland, Texas

New BBQ place that's located inside the new HEB off the loop 250. The service was fast and friendly. The BBQ was actually pretty good. I got the 2 meat plate with fatty brisket and ribs along with mac and cheese and green beans. The brisket was moist and flavorful with a good amount of crust. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender. The only critique was that the mac and cheese seemed a little powdery. I also preferred the Texas BBQ sauce over the others. read more

True Texas BBQ - Baked potato with brisket - Barbeque Near Me - Midland, Texas

True Texas BBQ at the new HEB in midland has great food. The brisket lean along with the turkey breast with brisket beans, and creamed corn are my favorite. I have been in several times and the food is always good. I have never been disappointed. read more

Been here several times now, BBQ is always great. Just wished they'd get their drink machine fixed. It's been down for over a month.

I ordered a two meat plate through favor the lean brisket and smoked turkey were juicy and flavorful the Mac and cheese was creamy and potato salad was fresh tasting . I will definitely be ordering again read more

Best barbecue in midland is inside an H-E-B lol. The prices aren't too bad either, never seen the inside dining packed. Fast service

Awesome taste !! Great BBQ get early to avoid the line but it's good good food. The Turkey is great and lean brisket

This place is located in the HEB. I have to say, I didn't expect much. But after two visits, I can attest that this is some of the best BBQ I've had in Texas. The meat is tender, juicy and delicious, the beans are exceptional, desserts tasty, and the portions are excellent. Not a bad word to say. Eat here. You'll be happy. read more

When I saw there was a barbecue place near my hotel and rated fairly high, I thought I'd check it out.. Then I saw it was inside HEB, a grocery store! Could it really be all that great? After walking in HEB I stood in line for about 10 minutes. That was encouraging, maybe the high rating was true! Well.. I've had a lot of barbecue in my life from Texas to Kansas and everywhere in between -- and this tops it all! My god!!! I had the 1/2 brisket sandwich with a side of potato salad and I was thoroughly impressed! The brisket was so tender and perfectly cooked! The potato salad was good as well, and all together it's plenty of food!!! If I ever make my way back to Midland, TX again, I'll be stopping in for some more! I highly recommend! read more

We had an important meeting this week- customer/vendor and my team. We ordered online via the True Texas BBQ web site- easy enough. We opted for delivery- it was free, things are going great so far!! The food arrived at our hotel, amazing. Not a drop of BBQ sauce in a $250.00 order. How do you forget the BBQ sauce. UGH, so embarrassing. read more

For a restaurant in a grocery store this impress and lived up to their reputation. Nice area to sit - clean. Always seems to have a line when I'm at the store but it does go move fast. Seems like most of the business is for take out. Ordered the two meat plate . Green beans was good but the beans and brisket was so good I inhaled it. I ate the beans so quickly it filled me up with the turkey. I took a bite of the brisket which was juicy but took the other part home and ate it later. It was still good but a little dry if you don't eat it all ate once . The bbq pepper is spicy the way I like it. Turkey lived up to my expectation. I love turkey. Good choice of craft beers on tap. Well worth grabbing a bite then finishing your grocery list! read more

This restaurant is in the new HEB grocery store at the intersection of Loop 250/191. We first tried the HEB BBQ at the West Odessa location and the new Midland location has an even bigger restaurant. BBQ has great flavor...some things can have a very smoky flavor but that is not bad at all. You can really tell it was cooked over a genuine wood fire. Side dishes are good. They also have some non-barbecue sandwiches such as a sliced turkey which had especially fresh ingredients. You can buy other things such as sushi etc. from the grocery department and eat them there as well. As it is a grocery store, it has very reasonable prices. read more

It may be in a grocery store, but this is some bomb-diggity BBQ!!! The brisket were a little too spicy for me. Happy hour from 5-9 Monday through Friday has some really good discounts. We had 3 sandwiches, a 2 meat plate, drinks and a sampler flight of 4 beers and only spent $33. Very well worth it. read more

True Texas BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Midland, Texas

3.5 stars. Serviceable BBQ in a grocery store. I came here for lunch with a group of coworkers. I ordered the pork sandwich and thought it was okay. Not the best that I have ever had but not the worst either. My coworkers had much the same reaction. There are better BBQ options in the Midland/Odessa areas but if you are at the grocery store anyway, this would be a good choice. read more

Disappointed. Line was a little long inside the store. We walked from hotel so we were pretty much stuck. Brisket was really good and would recommend, however, you only get 2 pieces with a 2 meat order for 9.95. Sides were not good. Mac and cheese was bland. Green beans lacked salt and flavor. Had a piece of small piece of bone in mine after 1st bite, so did not finish. My coworker also tried the green beans lacked flavor and were not good. Both were off temperature. Cornbread was heavy, flavorless, and kind of dark. May have been overcooked. Out of sausage so couldn't review. Tea was excellent and recommend. Service was not very friendly. The employees seem to lack pride and dedication in what they are serving as you would find at a locally owned barbecue venture. Some employees appear to need food service retraining on food handling such as food temperature, changing gloves and overall presentation skills. Kitchen is mostly in full view and appeared clean. read more

After placing a $40 order for delivery through Grubhub I was informed by email my order was cancelled. No reason given. Don't you think it would be prudent to CALL rather than send an email? We've just moved here. After driving two days to get here we're tired and hungry. Still unloading the moving truck. No food in the house...delivery seemed a great option. I'll be getting our food somewhere else and never bother Texas BBQ again. read more

When I tried to call in a takeout order, the lady said before I put you on hold you should know we don't take phone orders. You have to come inside the restaurant to order. read more

Inside of HEB, but good BBQ for the price. They have many options, happy hour specials, and good quick service

Well worth the drive off of I20 for this BBQ. Don't let the fact that it is sitting in a grocery store fool you. The fatty brisket as well as the regular brisket, pulled pork and ribs were great. Good sized portions. Three BBQ sauces were a little too similar but we had no problem eating every bite of food. Loved it! Employee taking our order was a little cool but .....the food made up for it. And.....there is indoor and outdoor seating. read more

True Texas BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Midland, Texas

Love this place. The sliced brisket sandwich is my go to item. Usually 3 varieties of sauces available which is nice. Friendly staff, prompt service, hot food. When I have a hankering for BBQ but dont want to wait for a sit down meal, True Texas BBQ is the spot to be. read more

Good brisket and barbecue in an H.E.B shopping store is an irony in itself. And yet they pull it off. As noted by other Yelpers, the fatty brisket is to die for. If you haven't tried it, you must. It's akin to the type you get a finer standalone smokehouses and BBQ joints around Texas. I've been to a few too. I think their Mac n Cheese can use some flavor. Tastes commercial to me. The sauces are excellent and you can take yourself several cups for your enjoyment. I eat this BBQ infrequently, not out of bad taste but watching those calories and cholesterol. But when I do, I go to town on the menu take it to the house. You would too if you tried it. In-store brew is a nice touch as well for those who like some beer with their steaks - and who doesn't? read more

Stopped in here because it was late and most places were closing in Midland at 09:00. Bought a few things at H-E-B and decided to give it a try. Team members were great. Had some good suggestions. Ended up with a sliced beef sandwich. Flavor was great. Facility is clean and well organized inside. It is convenient and the service is great. If you need it quick with quality give them a try. read more

Everything was awesome. But we ordered a sausage ring and we ended up getting an over cooked little sausage weenie. Reminded me of beef jerky but not as good. read more

Located in HEB we came here based on the other great reviews. We are glad we did! Fatty brisket, pulled pork, Mac and cheese were all delicious!! Sooo good! Service was nice, big seating area was clean, and their sweet tea was good! If I'm ever in the area I will be back! read more

Lets start with the good. The barbeque here is very good, I've never been disappointed with flavor or consistency. The real reason for this review is the bad things about this place. The last three times I've been there they mess up my order, which they fixed so I'll give them that. The last thing which really grinds my gears is how do you run out of ribs and potatoes all the time? I've yet to even be able to order a brisket potato. How in the hell do you run out of potatoes? You're inside HEB for Pete's sake. I hope managment starts getting their quantities right so they stop running out of food. read more
