Brown's Bar-B-Que

Listen, don't write off food truck barbecue!!! We got here after a long drive into Austin, desperate to eat barbecue but not eager to stand in long lines to eat it. After having over an hour in the car to sift through reviews, we settled on Brown's.It's nestled in the parking lot of the Corner Bar. Lots of outside seating on picnic tables (in the shade.) Brisket was tender (not fatty! Thank god!!!) and coleslaw was SO good. The pulled pork and turkey were also amazing. The sides of onions, pickles and jalapeño along with slices of bread were great. Also full bottles of soda. Barbecue was served on trays with paper. The lady serving us was friendly.Also DO NOT SLEEP ON THE BANANA PUDDING. Soooo good. What a find!!

This place is amazing. I flew into Austin at 2pm on a Tuesday so the famous spots were mostly closed. I'm glad that was the case because after doing research I discovered that Brown's has some of the best brisket. After trying a few spots I was hoping for some serious tender meat. I ordered the brisket with green beans and coleslaw. They only gave me a fork so before asking for a knife I tested the brisket, and sure enough, no knife was needed. I was able to cut through it with a plastic fork. Mind you, there was still a good bite to the meat, it was basically the perfect consistency. There was a quarter inch or so layer of fat that was super soft and juicy to make the meat even more elevated. Top it all off with their sweet mustard based sauce, so smooth, the meal was insane. Since I'm not in town for long I went back for seconds after my brisket and ordered two slices of turkey and a side of Mac n cheese. The turkey was unreal. Really juicy, tender, and flavorful. So easy to eat. The Mac n cheese was good but not the once a year super cheesy and creamy Mac and cheese you'll have at thanksgiving. My bar is super high on Mac and cheese. Theirs was plenty good. I usually don't even order Mac and cheese cuz it's heavy on carbs and most places just can't justify loading it up and baking it to get that crispy cheese layer on top. It's just not equitable. All in all this is five stars. Amazing they can continue to keep the quality at the highest levels after being around since 2012 (according to Yelp profile). Way to go guys!!

We loved this place! We took our order to go, one pound of brisket; it was very tasty and smokey. We also had the potato salad, beens and mac and cheese. I'd say my favorite sides were the mac and cheese followed by the beens. Service was great, very nice, fun people and answered all of our question helping us with our order.

The brisket was divine. I highly recommend getting the wrap. The tortilla pairs so much better with the brisket, than bread. Maximum flavor. Turkey was okay. Quick service & plenty of outdoor & indoor seating.

This place is delicious! Highly recommend. We had the brisket wrap (a bargain!) and the brisket sandwich. Fresh and flavorful.

Brown's was on a list of top places to try in Austin for BBQ. So of course, we had to try it. Brown's BBQ is a food truck outside of Corner Bar. So you can order your food and get a drink inside. But we decided to order to go. They were so friendly and helpful. We got the brisket and pork ribs with sides of Mac and cheese and beans. The brisket was very juicy and tender. The pork ribs were tender and very flavorful. We definitely understood why they were on a list of top BBQ places to try. It did not disappoint!

Awesome food. Large portion that's tinder and has great flavor. A must try!!! Whenever I come back to Austin this is a must stop for me.

I rarely give a five star review, but Brown's earned it. I brought my sweetheart to Austin to celebrate his birthday, and when I asked him what he wanted to eat, his response was "barbecue." It seemed that most everyone goes to Terry Black's, but after reading Brown's Yelp reviews, I knew we had to go.My boyfriend got brisket and ribs, I got a brisket wrap, and we chose four sides--slaw, green beans, the other beans, and macaroni and cheese. They were all good, but the green beans were my favorite. I love vinegar; if you don't, I recommend that you forego the slaw.Service was excellent.Everything about this experience was phenomenal.

Wow, I can't believe I have never been here previously. Browns BBQ is a family owned buisness and been in ATX for 12 years now. The have incredibly friendly and fast service. The ambiance is nice and chill and you can eat your food in the outdoor area or in the neighboring bar. The food was fantastic. I couldn't believe how much brisket you get for the price when you order the wrap. The brisket was incredibly tender and well seasoned and the pulled pork was just as amazing. The side of corn was cooked perfect with some spice seasoning. This is a fantastic meal and highly recommend anyone who loves brisket to come visit. They deserve way more press, preferred this to Terry Blacks.

Doing a friend a favor, I flew a Citation to Austin and had several hours to kill... I asked the people at the NASA office where to get a bite to eat. Well, what was I looking for? Barbecue! Several people said "Brown's!" and offered directions. And, asked --since I was obviously going that way, would I mind...I'm partial to pigsickles -- and made a complete hawg of myself. The young cashier who rang up my order -- painstakingly compiled as eager office workers kindly offered their editorial services to make certain I was absolutely accurate (NASA, yanno?) -- said that I didn't seem to be from there and where had I come from? They were delighted that I'd come to enjoy their barbecue and thanked me for my troubles by giving me a wide sample of sauces to try, along with samples of some of their sausage,, chicken, and pork delicacies.Wow, the barbecue sauce samples they gave me were astounding. Everything from rich, sweet, and savory to "defiant attitude!" (My words, not theirs.)Everything I tried was excellent.The people even helped me load the box of bags and packages into my rental vehicle and sent me on my way. Very nice people, even though they were very busy.My only regret: I wrote down the names of their barbecue sauces for future reference -- and left it in the jet when I got out.Gotta go back.
