Brantley Creek Barbecue

I grew up with Cooper's Texas pit bbq as my definition of true bbq. But now everything has changed with Brantley Creek! And it's just down the street from my house instead of several hours away - which is a culinary relief but a financial concern because it's all we want to eat!Our favorites are the moist brisket, sausage, fries, jalapeño creamed corn, and brisket beans. Although, to be honest, there's not anything on the menu that's anything but heavenly! Including the variety of iced teas!The staff is super helpful if you have any questions or need something specific due to dietary needs as well. If you prefer the burnt ends or extremely lean, they will work hard to get it for you if they have it! But they run out fast so get there in time to get what you want! We have often had dinner at 3PM to make sure we get plenty as well as get food to-go! It's worth it!Despite the demand and crowd combined with open air concept, they keep all the tables, condiments, and drink station SPOTLESS! And there's never any food on the playground or corn hole. I don't know how they do it but I'll pay double if they can come clean my house after or at least show me their magic tricks!!!

Bring your patience long line but well worth the wait. Food was excellent and plenty of it. You feel like you're eating at a family picnic in the backyard

First taste of Texas BBQ, this place didn't disappoint! The location is open and welcoming with games, sports on the screens, and a playground for the kids. The staff was friendly. And the BBQ was delicious! I generally love bbq sauce, but this meat really doesn't need it with the tender smokiness the cook gives it. Yum!

I never like leaving bad reviews but I have high expectations with BBQ, Houston where I'm from has some of the best. All though I didn't expect it to be that level what pissed me of the most was I paid 35.00 for chicken and turkey and the chicken quarters weren't big enough to please a field mouse let alone a grown man. The portions were very small and they meat was extremely dry. I'm now about to go elsewhere because I'm still in fact hungry... place is very nice and good environment but the portions need work and definitely need to upgrade the chicken to man size.

Loved their lean brisket, turkey creamed corn which has apeppery kick and the cucumber salad. It gets really busy after 5pm but the line moves quickly!

Brantley Creek BBQ, I finally get to give you a try! Being originally from Odessa, hearing about a really great BBQ spot had really put it on my radar. Upon arriving I will admit the restaurant is very hidden behind the car wash and Dollar General and has one way entrance off Faudree Road and exit only at Eastridge Road. The restaurant is very modern, enjoy that it has a playground for the kids and outdoor eating area my only downside is no indoor eating so if the weather is too hot or cold could be an inconvenience however plenty of seating available. The line was rather lengthy however kept in mind it was noon at lunch hour on a Friday. I do enjoy reading about their cover stories on Texas Monthly and also all the local businesses posted across the restaurant. You place the meat order in the first window, the second window is deserts and the last window is to pay and drinks. After paying, I got the 3 meat plate, succulent lean smoked brisket, Turkey and jalapeño sausage link packed a punch! The side got the Mac and cheese which was a bit dry and the banana pudding for the desert which was very delicious I do highly recommend! Overall, great laid back atmosphere especially when the weather is nice, full bar and outdoor play area for the kids and the meat quality is amazing! I highly recommend you give it a try for great bbq in the Odessa area!

The food was incredible. Brisket Taco Soup, Smoked Turkey and Jal Corn were just wow! The service and vibe of the joint was just great. If I lived here, this would be my local!

The best BQ ever, hands down. Eat here you won't be disappointed. We had the banana pudding and it was the bomb diggitie. The Coleslaw was yummy too. Get here early the line starts before they open!

I have been 3 times. BBQ is excellent customer service is great. When I am in Odessa I go get some awesome BBQ- I live in central Texas this place is outstanding. Sorry but this place beats all BBq places in central texas.

I have had the pleasure to work with Brandon when he was just doing the food truck and a few caterings. Now that he has the brick and mortar up and running it hasn't disappointed either. We stopped by for lunch and ordered the two meat plate which had the turkey and brisket. Both were spot on as always and Brandon still stops by the table to say hello. Congrats Brandon on a job well done.
