Cooper's Old Time Pit Bar-B-Que

First Texas BBQ experience and it was incredible! I'm well aware this isn't the best in the area, but I was here for a work trip and happy I got to experience REAL BBQ. We don't have it like this in New England. Absolutely some of the best, tender brisket I've ever had. Their BBQ sauce was thin and vinegary and I loved it. Their mac & cheese was creamy and exactly what I want in BBQ mac. The sausage was also great! 10/10. If this isn't the best, I can't even imagine how good the other spots are!

We had some extended family in town who we took to Cooper's. And, as expected, Coopers did NOT disappoint. We had a fairly large10-person group, and everyone was satisfied. My order of beef ribs, brisket, and half a link each of regular and jalapeno cheddar sausage was fantastic. For sides I had the potato salad and mac. Potato salad was so good--very mustard-forward, and I only wish I'd ordered more to go. I wanted to give the mac another chance, so I ordered it again and it still wasn't good. The only misstep of the meal, it tasted like it was made from powdered cheese. I missed out on tasting the green beans, but my sister said they were tasty. Overall, still a five-star BBQ experience, and I'll keep returning.

For my husband's birthday I took him to Cooper's for one of their 2" thick pork chops. He absolutely loved it! Since it was so large, I just had a small portion of it and he still was able to get his fill. Pinto beans are always complimentary and have a nice jalapeño kick. They are a little too spicy hot for him, but I love them. We also got the grilled corn which is covered with a generous portion of black pepper, yum. Often grilled corn can be dry, Cooper's is not. Their potato salad is good, and to top the meal off, warm pecan cobbler. Hubby said it was one of the best birthday meal he has had. For that alone it deserves 5 stars!We also love its rustic charm and friendly service.

Really cool place. It's like a full serve bbq buffet with great food. The meat was great with lots of options. The Mac and cheese was great. People were very nice. Also, it had a cool vibe with jalapeños on all the tables. Prices were good as well. Definitely will be back.

This place was really good! When you enter all the meats are on a grill and a grill master is there pretty to choose your order with. You can order in quarter pound increments so you don't have to get a ton. That was super exciting and fun.The brisket was very tender and delicious, but the beef rib was extremely tough and hard to eat. They have a very thin vinegar based sauce, which I enjoyed. The sides felt more like an afterthought, unfortunately. The potato salad was just OK and the jalapeño bacon mac & cheese was not good. Every meal comes with beans, bread, onions, and jalapeños and pickles.The beans were decent but not great. The jalapeños on the table looked suspicious but everything was good and we had a nice time. Open bench seating and laid-back atmosphere.

This BBQ joint is near the stockyards. It is a large place. When you walk in you choose your meat first and then go in and choose sides and your drink. They offer unlimited beans, pickles and white bread. We got pork ribs, brisket and sausage. The sausage was on point. Flavorful with good texture. The brisket was really good too. It had a bit of fat but just enough to add flavor. It wasn't globs of fat which was nice. The pork ribs were good (a bit dry) but we got this b/c my mom wanted them. I usually go for beef ribs. Still good TX BBQ.... It is cafeteria style and the folks working were nice.

2 different people told me to visit this restaurant while in the area - so I had to go! You enter and get in line to pick out the meats you want. They take the meat right off the grill to your plate. Then, down the line, they weigh the meat, and you proceed to get all your sides and pay at the end. There were 2 different types of beans to help yourself to (free) and pickles. I like that they also offer bread to make sandwiches on if you wish.I ordered 1 beef rib that was $18.44! While the rib was good, I just felt that it was way overpriced. For the sides, I got the green beans and pecan pie for dessert. The green beans had good seasoning. The pecan pie could win some serious awards. It was that good and you must get it.The restaurant has a laid-back feel and was very clean.

Dropped by for lunch on a Monday.The place is huge and definitely designed to serve a lot of people. They have all the meats ready to for you (brisket, jalapeño and regular sausage, beef ribs, pork ribs and chicken). They also have a carolina style like sauce to dip the meat in.After the meat you can select sides (mac n cheese, potato salad ...)I went with the brisket (only do sliced) and regular sausage dipped in sauce. The food was ok. The slice of brisket was a decent size but about a third of it was fat. The brisket was juicy but lacked a little flavor.The sausage was pretty good. I did try the mac n cheese, which was the star of the meal. It was creamy and tasty.The price was definitely on the high side. The brisket, 1/2 sausage link, mac n cheese with a drink was $30.

A new must drop-on BBQ spot when visiting the Fort Worth area.Kudos to the DFW to having massive restaurants that can fit our giant family. Rule of thumb, always stock up on pickles in these establishments. Your gut health will thank me later

Situated near the Stockyards, this is a massive, popular BBQ spot that was recommended to me for good eats. They have a workable, streamline approach, as you stand in line, order your meet at one station, sides, drinks at other stations. The brisket and sausages we ordered were good, but the hype was too much to give it a rave review-- and a bit too fatty for me. Everything's big in Texas, so when you order a beer it comes in a giant, frosted goblet (so be prepared). I liked the pickles. The blackberry cobbler were just okay. You can also get sliced white bread and water as you pick up your utensils. There are big long tables to sit at, plus some outdoor seating, with TV's to watch sports.
