    I've always wanted to try this place out every time we walked into H-E-B. So finally when we had time and were hungry we decided to try this place out. Of course I was a little hesitant, since it is inside a shopping center, but it ended up being good. Once stepping inside you have a sports bar vibe. The menu is behind the register and the staff helps with decisions. I ended up getting the three meat plate (Pork ribs, brisket, and turkey) with beans & cornbread. My girlfriend ordered the two meat plate (sausage & brisket) with cream corn & potato salad. We also ordered drinks, which the variety of teas were amazing! The food was overall good, and the overall experience was decent, we will most likely be back again when the opportunity presents itself.

    Best teas and ice (just like Buckee's nuggets)

    HEB never ceases to amaze me. It seems whatever they put their heart into, they are going to excel at. They don't do anything without doing their research and making sure they have the best quality. I wish there was an HEB near me. Come on HEB.....Las Vegas needs you. So...not a McD's or a Subway or some other sub par fast food joint where even the service is hit and miss. True Texas BBQ is legit and their service is equally Texas friendly. Every time I've ordered, they are always patient and helpful. The food is priced pretty good. I mean, it's mid range in price and you get a good amount. If you sign up for their texts, you will get great coupons of certain foods every month. We typically get a combo of fatty and lean brisket. Both are moist and delicious but when the crispy edges with the layer of fat hit the smokey meaty part of the brisket, you get the perfect bite. I was skeptical of the turkey but pleasantly surprised. It was Smokey, tender, and juicy. Sausage is great too! It's hard to go wrong with Texas sausages though. The Mac and cheese is delicious. When your sides taste like homecoming, that's such a win! The brisket pinto beans have pieces of brisket in it. They aren't skimpy either. Of course we love the pickles, onions, and bread to go with our bbq. They have a variety of BBQ sauces for every palate. It's kind of fun to try them all to see what everyone likes the best. I'm an original or a spicy kind of gal myself. All the teas and the ice nuggets are awesome! Perfectly brewed! It is an art as I've seen so many people make teas bitter. Great job True Texas BBQ! This location is even more fun with a see through elevator to take you to a second floor for more seating. Also it may sound goofy but if you go to their bathroom you can really smell all delicious smoking woods and meats. Really great job as always HEB! Thank you for adding True Texas BBQ!!!

    Our Local Go To for Brisket Every Time…read more Black's BBQ in New Braunfels is our local go to spot. It is a quick drive from home, and their brisket keeps us coming back. We always order a mix of regular and a little lean for me, and both are consistently tender and flavorful. The sausage is ok, but the turkey on the rare occasions we get it is delicious and moist. For sides, we love Norma Jean's beans, green beans, and slaw. They are reliable and always hit the spot. One thing I discovered is that if I reheat the brisket in my Breville oven on the warm setting, it comes out tasting just like it did the day we ordered it. Desserts are sometimes a thing for us. The peach cobbler and banana pudding can be good, but they are not always consistent. Side note. I still do not know what to think about their family rival, Terry Black's BBQ building right next door. It is a cool vibe overall, and if you catch it at the right time, they even have musical events which makes the visit even better.

    I stopped at Black's Barbecue in New Braunfels expecting great Texas barbecue, but my experience…read morewas mixed. The biggest issue was the brisket, which was much fattier than I prefer. While some fat is expected and adds flavor, there was enough of it that I found myself trimming quite a bit off before eating. The food wasn't bad, and I can see why many people enjoy it, but it didn't stand out compared to other barbecue places I've visited. Given the reputation, I was hoping for a better balance of meat and fat and a more memorable meal overall. That said, the service was good, and the restaurant has the classic Texas barbecue atmosphere many visitors are looking for. Overall, it was an okay experience, but not one of the highlights of my trip.

Once I saw that, I told my husband let's just go to Rudy's. They have the best breakfast tacos and are less than $3 a taco. We were greeted with a warm good morning as we came in the door. The cashier helped us with the cost of the tacos, bag our tacos and salsas, and rung us up. I love the country style decor and picnic table seating but we decided to take our tacos to go. We got 3 tacos for around $10. They are so good. Fresh tortillas with great tasting scrambled eggs, meats, potatoes, etc. We just went to their order to go side and grabbed ready made tacos and delicious red and green salsa. All of our breakfast tacos were delicious. Egg, potato, and cheese, brisket & egg, and chopped beef & egg. The brisket and egg was my favorite. It had just a small amount of smoke flavor without being overpowering. You didn't just taste egg. It all complimented each other very well. I was impressed by the amount of meat. I love the green salsa. That's my favorite but I put both salsas on it. Honestly the bbq is hit and miss at every location I've been to. I'm not crazy about the bbq sauce either but I always like the tacos. Especially the bbq breakfast tacos.

Their brisket is divine and the sides we chose were out of this world. My husband loves their beans. The green beans were unique and I appreciated that they were super flavorful with tomatoes and delicious broth. The star of the show with the sides was the King Ranch Mac N Cheese!!!! I grew up on King Ranch Chicken Casserole as a child. So I was thrilled to have a macaroni with those delicious flavors. For a little history, that particular casserole emerged in the 1950s as a convenient, post-World War II Tex-Mex comfort food. Despite its name, it has no actual ties to Texas's famous King Ranch; instead, it is a creative, canned-soup-based casserole inspired by the Mexican dish chilaquiles. I am ususally underwhelmed by macaroni and cheese but this was the best. The macaroni shape was unusual and the closest I could find online was called "Radiator" because the similarity in shape to a radiator. It held the sauce perfectly though. McKayla helped us cart out our food to the car and was so sweet and helpful. We love Burnt Bean and plan to return!

    Arrived on a Saturday at 8:05 we were the second group in line. Parked right out front, set up…read morechairs and we were ready. Around 8:30 lots of people showed up and the line wrapped around the corner. Sun was not on us for the first hour. Second hour was hot but luckily around 10:20 they announced they were opening early YAY! We were eating by 10:45. Very organized, they have water out while you wait. Ok now the food: We got 2.5 lbs brisket 1.5 lbs ribs 1 link sausage which was .5 lb .5 burnt ends 1.5 lbs drumsticks which was 3 legs Pint Mac and cheese Pint Beans I got 1 chopped sandwich to take home. This was plenty for us 3 healthy eaters. Best part was the chicken 10/10 it was like a turkey leg from Fiesta iykyk. Cinco sausage- 9/10 flavor on point a bit crumbly Ribs were also 10/10 a bit sweet and sticky but smokey Burnt ends were perfect Brisket- 8.75/10 now here is where I get picky. It was amazing, flavorful, fatty and tender BUT it was a bit too tender so the texture was more like pot roast than brisket. A mix between smoked and oven brisket. Not terrible but not what I like. So i give it 8.75. Mac and cheese- 5/10 my two Mac loving companions did not care for it. It was more queso with pasta added than macaroni and cheese. Beans- 9/10 they were delish with the cheese! Tastes like frito pie. Chili beans but soo good. Potato salad: 8/10 very tia backyard style but could be elevated. Bacon ranch taters 10/10 they gave us a sample and husband loved it! Said he wished he got that vs the mac. Comes with pickles and martins bread. Drinks- sweet tea was legit and in a big to go cup 10/10 Tips: Free beer! They have free yueling beers for dine in. Plenty of to go containers and bags. Lots of seating but we were front of line. Reviews say 2 hour parking but thats M-F. Plenty of spots around the block if you come later. Nice little downtown area but lots of places are closed before 10. Lots of cool people in line! Chatted with a few and it was a vibe. Big question- would I wait 2 hours again? Yes if you go in better weather. This was late August and it gets hot fast. If you're taking your friends/family then yes make it an event, fans, chairs, coolers, music etc. Overall its really good and worth a trip for the chicken alone.

The jalapeño sausage, I've never had a jalapeño sausage that good! The cheese was bursting out of the seam! The tater salad oh my God! Talk about a blast from the past if you're from Houston Texas, and remember the old Heights camp house BBQ, you will remember they had Camp house potatoes. They tasted exactly the same wow I was so happy to try that because I never thought I'd have a dish like that again in my life. The brisket rice was OK. I probably would get something else. The banana pudding was phenomenal. This is some of the best barbecue I've ever had. Easy five star review! The customer service was great. The line moved quickly and everyone was extremely nice.

The dining room was very clean. Staff very nice. You can tell they are trying to learn the craft of Texas bbq. The staff don't seem to be in communication with each other. I saw some white lady that just looked angry behind the counter I'm assuming is the owner. Now, I did have VERY high expectations for this place because I have been a long time follower of 90 West barbecue since they first began. I know Jesus and Robin moved to this location. With that said I had high hopes the food would have came along with them, which by visual plating, and taste it absolutely did not. I honestly felt them two would have easily been brought this place on the top 50 bbq list and that got me so excited to make the drive out to try it. I did ask for Jesus but they said he was off when we went by. That surprised me they always work! Haha I don't know if he will see this review since he is a manager but Jesus your very talented man with a heart of craft bbq we know your worth, your bbq was killer. I pray someone will give you a partnership to begin your own restaurant location you will do just fine back in San Antonio and we will be right there with you and Robin.
