Texas Traditional Bar-B-Q

Come for lunch when the BBQ is freshest. The meats fall off the bones. Don't let the shed ambiance scare you away. The service was soooo helpful. I came in near closing on a rainy night and they took extra time to make me a perfect plate. I even ordered an extra brisket sandwich to go which they took the time to trim the fat off if you desired. The meats definitely carried a strong unmistakable Smokey taste. The sauce was very peppery so you might want to sample that first before fully committing.

Happened upon this BBQ spot when I googled for food near me Manor. While standing in a short line to order, I saw plates of BBQ going by. The generous portions of meat and sides that looked great! I wasn't too hungry so I ordered the Sliced Brisket Sandwich. It was stacked with lean smoked beef. The brisket was slightly dry but the homemade sauce made up for it. I will try a plate next time

Still a favorite spot of mine in Manor. Elgin sausage never disappoints and the brisket was nice and juicy this week

Place serves you old dry Brisket!! Terrible food no flavor just smoked. I went there 10 mins ago! Never again. Boooo... should be proud of your food given the. Competition around. Again place is terrible.

If you find yourself in Manor, this is probably the best barbecue around. It is also probably the most rustic establishment as well. This establishment looks like a cobbled together shanty with a smoker out back. Once inside you'll notice the interior is much like the exterior. There are six tables to sit at in the small room where the walls are covered in old license plates. I guess you might say this rustic look only adds to the charm of the place, the locals seem to think so. They do have a gravel drive up window, which is what most people use. Barbecue is not the only thing they serve here. There is also fried chicken and catfish along with some daily specials. I do like the fact they offer a three meat combo plate instead of everything being à la cart. The brisket has a pronounced smoke ring, and they serve Meyers sausage which is tender and juicy. They also serve baby back ribs. The pinto beans and slaw are pretty average, but the green beans and corn are out of a can. I also recommend the fried chicken plate, it's something they actually do quite well. All the food here is surprisingly affordable considering what barbecue goes for these days. Be sure to get some of their barbecue sauce to go, it's some of the best around. And lastly, there's no tip screen, but there is a tip jar. The photos featured here will bring it into proper perspective.

This BBQ was super affordable and there were plenty of choices for meats and sides and desserts.Let's start with the meat. Our party of two ordered 4 pork ribs, 1/2lb of brisket and 2 sausages. Let's go from worst to first. The sausage was dry and had zero flavor. We do not recommend. The ribs were decent, although also a bit dry. The brisket was also dry, but decent enough. good. The dryness can often be solved for with sauce, but the BBQ sauce here is seriously bad. If that's an in house recipe, they should go buy sauce commercially. The sides we ordered were mac and cheese, potato salad, and coleslaw. The mac was pretty good. They pepper it up here. Not an issue for us, but if you're not down for it, then avoid that side. The cole slaw was in need of more mayo. It's a theme here - the food is dry. The potato salad was solid.Let's get to the service. Nice guys manning the place and they were super welcoming.The vibe is roadhouse shack. We dig that sort of thing, so it was a plus for us.Price was incredibly inexpensive. For all that food, it was $39 and we left a tip. Bottom line for us is if this BBQ joint were in most any other state, most would dig it. But, we're in Texas, y'all. Gotta up your game.

Back a month later, still a 5 star place in my book . I will definitely be back.Excellent bar b q very reasonable prices, what more could you want.Back a few more months and now they have beef ribs!!!Still 5 stars!!!

I was really impressed with our meal! Everything was juicy delicious with the exception of the pork ribs. They were a tad dry.

Please please bring back the beef ribs you used to have. I used to call them dinosaur ribs and was okay with getting just 1. My order today was 2 small riblets that were dry and flavorless. The Turkey plate was also dry and bland. Been coming for years and was very disappointed especially because I brought a newcomer with me.

The best brisket I have ever had and the ribs just fell off the bone we can't wait to go back for more! We are outside on a small picnic table and they were so kind to bring water out for our dogs!
