Brotherton's Black Iron Barbecue

Brotherton's is one of my wife and I's favorite BBQ spots in the area. On a Saturday afternoon, around noon the restaurant wasn't crazy busy, but people continued coming in after we did. My wife and I have experienced weekends when the restaurant has run out of certain meats for the day, so don't hesitate to make a courtesy call before you head over to check on that! There is a fair amount of seating if it's not at peak business time, but be aware there aren't so many tables if you have a party larger than 4. They have a couple TVs on around the restaurant to have sporting events on, which we appreciate! Food-wise our go-to is the Loaded Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Brisket--melted cheeses, tender and juicy brisket in super soft Texas Toast. It's always so delicious. Brotherton's always has a wide variety of side selections, some are seasonal--this time around we went with the hatch green chile Mac n Cheese, potato salad and tater tot casserole. Carbs on carbs that are so good you don't need to worry about counting the calories, they're worth it!! We'll definitely keep coming back, 5 years and counting!

Very yummy BBQ. The cheese loaded sandwich was so good because the brisket was heat up so it did not taste dry like the ones ordered separately. The green chili Mac and cheese side has a very nice kick to it. Parmesan garlic green bean was super tasty!! My very first meal in Austin!! Yum.

This place was pretty solid the brisket grilled cheese sandwich that I got was totally satisfying to the taste buds. The service was fast and prompt as far as the ambience It's that of any mom and Pops restaurant.

Great BBQ spot in Pflugerville. Delicious meats and not too bad for the price point. Friendly staff and service was quick. Definitely will return. Small little bbq spot but ample seating!

Good bbq! Ordered a family meal and some additional items. The sides were a miss for us but the delicious bbq made up for it. We ordered brisket in every form that they sell it and loved the sauced option but all were really good. The sausage and ribs were made to perfection! Would definitely recommend for the bbq. Ordered the green beans, cornbread casserole, pinto beans, Mac n cheese, potato salad, cucumber salad and banana pudding...they were simply, ok . Save some money and DIY the sides. Friendly staff , fast service, typical bbq joint ambiance. Will definitely come back for bbq and I would recommend it to family, friends and neighbors.

First impressions really matter because I feel taken advantage of. I ordered delivery as a rare treat my husband and I so it was not cheap. I ordered and paid for 3 meat plates only to have 2 meats delivered. This cost of living is already high but to have a business just take my money like that is hurtful. If it was some fast food place I would be mildly annoyed but this is not the case. I hope they enjoy the free cash that I earned taking care of very sick, dying patients.

This BBQ is still one of my favorites. Leaving Austin TX on a Tuesday called out to Brotherton's to ask if they still had food. The nice lady on the phone told me yes, but on brisket. I asked them to please hold 1.5 lbs and they did. Thank you Brotherton's for helping us out and thank you Brotherton's for continuing to make some great brisket. I recommend you go and give this place a try. The people here are all so nice and the brisket is good great!

Stopped in during the holiday week and was so impressed. The brisket, turkey and sausage were delicious andReally enjoyed the wasabi cole slaw as well. Make sure you add this to your BBQ list, we will be back for sure.

We saw they were having a chicken fried steak on special so we had to stop in. We got that with mac n cheese and it also had mashed potatoes. We also got the reuben, which is oyr favorite of their sandwiches. The pastrami on the reuben was soo good! The cfs came out really hot and the cream gravy was seasoned well and delicious. Another great visit to brothertons...I hope they do their taco bell popup again soon though.

I had a two meat plate, brisket and jalapeno cheese sausage.....sausage was excellent A+...Brisket was meh....good flavor but no smoke ring and so mushy soft you could eat it with a spoon....I don't want tough meat and I do want some texture...sides were weird: wasabi slaw had uncooked chunks of what appeared to be ramen noodles???....asian cucumber salad was bland and I stopped after just a couple of bites...on the positive side, staff was very friendly and helpful....not too pricey in today's bbq world....
