We knew we would be traveling through Amarillo on our cross country road trip and quickly decided that we needed to check out Tyler's after reading the reviews. We arrived about 4:30pm on a Thursday afternoon. We smelled delicious barbecue as soon as we stepped inside. There are many awards and assorted swag (lots of Tyler's t-shirts in assorted colors and sizes, hats, stickers and bottled barbecue sauce) lining the walls of the line to order. The menu boards are clear and easy to read and include lots of meat combination options, sides and desserts. My wife decided on the 1/2 rack of ribs and the bread pudding (she didn't want to fill up on sides and not get the chance to try the bread pudding). I ordered the #2 two meat sandwich with pulled pork and regular sausage. I chose the green beans for my side. The employees were friendly and helpful as they assembled our platters. We also thought the prices were very reasonable. We took our platters to a table and grabbed utensils and a bottle of each of the barbecue sauces. My wife agreed with other reviewers that the ribs were "fall of the bone" and delicious. She really liked the regular barbecue sauce as well. I thought the sausage was delicious and also enjoyed the pulled pork and green beans. My wife loved the bread pudding and was half tempted to order another helping for later. Overall, this was a great experience and we would highly recommend to other fellow barbecue lovers! read more

This might be the best bbq I've ever had and I'm a big bbq fan. I try not to lightly throw around 5 star ratings, but if I could I'd give this 6 stars. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed everything we ate. Brisket and jalapeño creamed corn stood out as incredible. Cool place and atmosphere also, very clean and inviting. Staff was also extremely friendly and helpful. Price was very fair for what we purchased. Not much more I can say other than I'd drive out of my way to come back and I'd recommend it to anyone. read more

On a long road trip From TN to California. As a Memphis bbq fan, I had to come check out some Texas BBQ. The sweet smell of smoked wood hit us as soon as you got to the parking lot . The menu was easy to follow and the choices were great! We couldn't decide so we got 4 different meats . Ordering was smooth and we had our food immediately! The staff were nice The food was really good ! Not the absolute best bbq I've had, but definitely a solid choice and worth the stop if you're in the area! read more

DELICIOUS!! Jalapeño creamed corn was out of sight! First time in Texas and first Texas BBQ. Did not disappoint.

"Top BBQ spot in Amarillo! Highly recommend for both the amazing food and friendly service. And if you're there on a Friday, don't miss the cherry cobbler -- it's the best in town." read more

We had a wonderful lunch on the dog-friendly shaded patio at Tyler's BBQ. This was our first time to come here and we are glad we did! My husband had the 2 meat sandwich with a side of corn and I had the sliced brisket sandwich with a side of potato salad. The food was so good! A kind gentleman came to check on us and offered us a bowl of water for our pups. Great service! read more

Tyler's Barbeque - Meat platter including brisket, ribs, and pulled pork. Sides are cream corn and potato salad. Comes with Texas toast. - Barbeque Near Me - Amarillo, Texas

Hands done the best barbecue I've had in a long time better than Austin, San Antonio, and Charleston. I had the 3 meat plate, brisket, spare ribs, and jalapeño sausage with sides of beans and jalapeño creamed corn, This barbecue has everything that distinguishes quality bbq, bark, smoke ring, fork tender with delectable flavor. The. sides were just as good and the cobbler was perfect. Service was excellent, the meat is cut in front of you (the meat cutter gave me tender fatty brisket as requested and brought out a fresh brisket just for me. The staff and owner were welcoming even with a large lunch crowd coming. I had brisket at a high end joint in Memphis that didn't come near to this food. Quality barbecue is hard to do and rare. A fantastic eating experience! read more

On our last road trip from CA to IL, we passed through Amarillo, and after looking for some ideas to have lunch, we found this place, and we decided to give it a shot. Great decision! The place is as traditional and cute as expected, not far from the I44, and easy to find. The food is good, the sauces are flavorful, and the portions are big. We shared the three-meat dinner (brisket, ribs, and chicken) with baked beans and coleslaw. We have leftovers for dinner! It was early on the day - about 2 pm and the Service was pleasant and helpful - our first time, and we needed help ordering our food. I highly recommend this BBQ place! read more

As far as brisket goes Tyler's doesn't miss, great flavor, thick ,tender cut pieces , bbq sauce is good too but the meat is prepared so perfectly I ate most of it by itself! Sides were good too, potato salad, coleslaw and fries. A worthwhile stop and great representation of true Texas bbq! read more

2 meat platter excellent! Will return... I need to try ribs next visit. Bbq sauce ok. I love this place

On a long road trip, had to pass by here for lunch because of the good reviews online. FYI, they don't have burnt ends on their menu :( We ordered the 4 meat plate consisting of ribs, pulled pork, jalapeño sausage and brisket with jalapeño cream corn, potato salad and Texas toast. Honestly, I'm underwhelmed... I was expecting more. The meat is tender but not falling off the bone. The cream corn I really liked. Why is it called Texas toast? It's just toasted bread with nothing else on it. I do love the fact that you can eat with your fur baby in the patio, they have 3 misting fans and a small fenced in dog enclosure with fake grass. read more

Very well done BBQ! They cut it right in front of you! Simple & fast service. Highly recommend!

Fantastic food! We travel through Amarillo just twice a year. But we try to stop here every time. We've learned to order early because they frequently sell out. I have to eat gluten free due to celiac disease and they take this very seriously. Just let them know when ordering. The brisket is outstanding, well everything is! My DH loves the desserts! read more

Excellent value and food. The pulled pork was tender and cooked to perfection. Added some of the house BBQ sauce and it was to die for! Green chile stew was very flavorful with a nice kick! read more

In town for the day- some friends took me here. So glad they did! Great smoked meat. I had a 2 item sandwich with pulled pork and a hot link. The sandwich was good on its own, but there sauces put it over the top. Their regular sauce was a rich and sweet BBQ sauce that was perfect. Their spicy sauce (I forgot the name) was equally as good or better than their original. Both outstanding. The rib was smoked perfectly, came off the bone just right. Also great with either sauce. The mac and cheese was rich and cheddary. Was glad I got it. Great comfort food. I also ordered the jalapeño creamed corn. Initially I questioned my choice, but it was as good as everything else on my plate. It's a good thing I don't live here or I'd be big as a house. read more

We had the absolute best beef rib for lunch Saturday. Not always on the menu, but when it is, order it. Pulled pork and black pepper sausage is great too. Brisket is smoky and moist. I think it's the best BBQ in the Texas panhandle. read more

Driving through Amarillo and found this place on Yelp. The four of us enjoyed our lunch very much. The sausage, chopped and sliced brisket, coleslaw, potato salad, peach cobbler were all excellent! My favorite side was the jalapeño corn. This place is a must stop if you are in town! read more

The best bbq we have had, hands down! We had the brisket sandwich and the chicken sandwich with their homemade bbq sauce (we bought a bottle to take home). Absolutely delicious! Definitely the restaurant to go to if you want handcrafted, homemade Texas bbq. Try their homemade banana pudding while you are there, you won't be disappointed. The restaurant is very clean, and the atmosphere is inviting and welcoming. We will be back! read more

If I could give more stars, I would. When you hear there is nothing better than Texas BBQ, then they must have ate at Tyler's BBQ. This place is one of the Best BBQ places I have visited. My wife and I were driving through Amarillo and decided to stop for lunch and we both glad we did. I love the layout of the restaurant. You order your food from the person who cuts and prepares your food. They cut the meat right in front of you. Very nice people behind the counter, Texas hospitality at its best. We ordered a brisket and pulled pork sandwiches. Sides of beans and potato salad, both were amazing. The brisket and pulled pork were so tender and amazing taste. The BBQ sauces were great. I also ordered a bread pudding, best I've ever had. You can't get BBQ like this in California, that's for sure. read more

A great place to eat ! I love the brisket sandwich ! I definitely enjoy the atmosphere.

The pinto beans were average but the green beans and turkey were solid. I was expecting more on the brisket and it was not bad, but you are in cattle country. Tyler's needs to step up there game as barbecue joint competition has increased and serving a chopped brisket sandwich on a cold plain bun just does not stack up. At least toast the bun. Like Jim Carey in Liar Liar said... "I've had better." read more

What can you say, when in Texas have bbq. We rolled into Amarillo in the early evening on our cross country trip and knew we needed bbq. Unfortunately since it was near closing, they were out of their ribs. We were informed that we would need to get them when they opened in the morning because they run out. We delayed our departure for the following morning and placed an order of ribs to pick up. Our dinner however did not disappoint. Brisket sandwiches and the 2 meat platters were delicious and ample. The sides were great, the spicy bbq sauce was the best. In the morning, we decided to get the preordered ribs and eat in the restaurant. We could not believe how absolutely delicious they were. Smokey, tender, meaty, it had it all going on. The owner was very friendly and took the time to speak to us. Looking back on our epic trip, the ribs were definitely the highlight!!!! The BEST read more

Best barbecue I've ever had the ribs fell off the bone and had great flavor. The brisket was tender and moist with tons of flavor. The sides were very good also along with dessert. The service was friendly and efficient. The seating was picnic style. read more

well worth a stop!! likely the best food i ate on my roadtrip along I-40. i ordered a two meat plate with sliced brisket and pulled pork (they were out of ribs at 2pm on a saturday, with an hour or so wait for more), potato salad and slaw for the sides, and all the fixings/condiments - spicy bbq sauce, diced raw onion, pickles, and pickled jalapenos. everything was fresh and delicious and it was clear that the sides and condiments weren't just an afterthought, there was real love and attention to detail that made the whole meal shine. smoky, sweet, and spicy bbq sauce with fresh ground pepper, perfectly tart pickles, bright green and red jalapenos, creamy, well-seasoned potato salad and a crispy, lightly sweetened slaw. i was so happy to make a saucy lil pulled pork sandwich with the texas toast. the brisket did seem a tad salty but it mellowed out when i ate leftovers the next day. i also got a sweet tea - i do prefer a stronger and sweeter sweet tea so i'd probably skip next time. but there will be a next time !!! staff was real sweet too. line was long when i got there so i called in a phone order from the line and it was ready in about 20 minutes. read more

Tyler's Barbeque - two meat plate (brisket, pulled pork) with potato salad and slaw, onions, pickles, and jalapenos, spicy bbq sauce - Barbeque Near Me - Amarillo, Texas

Has always been the best BBQ in town imo! Love the customer service and of course the food! Top notch!!

I was a passing-through-town cross country traveler and was lucky enough to wander into Tyler's. It was great BBQ-had the bbq beef sandwich which was done to perfection. The beef was tender, smoky but not overpowering with a smoky flavor. The bbq sauce wasn't vinegar based (like NC), which again, is perfection. Tyler happened to be in the house and stopped by each table to check and make sure every diner was happy which was so impressive. Wish he would open a restaurant in St. George, Utah! The line would be out the door and I would do the dishes for a sandwich anytime! read more

I ordered the two meat plate and chose the brisket and ribs with potato salad and coleslaw. The brisket was a little dry, lacked smokiness, and did not have the peppery bark I am accustomed to. The ribs were a little better than the brisket. They were moist, but could have used more seasoning. The two sides I ordered were standard. Also, my plate did not come with onions and pickles I am used to seeing at most bbq places. Overall Tyler's is a good option if you are craving bbq in Northwest Texas. The staff is friendly and the portions are large. It was hard not to compare their bbq with the stellar bbq I eat in central Texas, hence the three star review. read more

Visiting Amarillo, I was really in the mood for a good barbecue. Tyler's came highly recommended, and although they were running out of some of their entrée items, we still had a great meal. The brisket, to begin with, was so tender and fall apart delicious that it really carried the meal. Pork ribs and sausage had that same smoked flavor and were good as well. We had green beans cooked with bacon and jalapeño creamed corn as our sides. Quite the mouth candy. Also the BBQ sauce was a nice compliment. When in the Panhandle go visit this place. read more

Had a little bit of everything and it all was delicious!!! See why this place makes the top ten list constantly for BBQ.
