Gessner's Grub BBQ

Wow! Some of the best food I've ever had. Came here with friends on a Monday afternoon to grab some BBQ. You have to make sure to pay attention while driving to this location or you might miss the turn. I decided to order the 2 meat platter and added the garlic sausage. The ribs literally fell off the boom and were seasoned to perfection. Just writing this makes me want some. The sliced brisket was very flavorful and the BBQ sauce was a perfect mix of sweet and tangy. I decided to have the slaw and potato salad. Both very delicious as well. When visiting my sister this will become a frequently visited spot. If you haven't been here yet, definitely check it out. You won't be disappointed.

I got the brisket and sausage two meat platter. With a side of beans and coleslaw. Portion size is great, the food is AMAZING! And easily the beans are the BEST I've ever had. Great service, quick and friendly. Nice outdoor seating area. Absolutely recommend this place.

My friend recommended this restaurant. It's off of Sawdust & feels like your in the country. I had the brisket breakfast taco & must say, it was The BEST taco! They were fast, $3.99 for a huge taco & so nice! The smell of smoked meats is so yummy too! I'll be back! Thank you for a great experience!

Best breakfast taco of all time, no debating this! Amazing 5 stars - period. The slight crunch of the hash browns, fresh brisket.

Why 5 stars? Because they have a cumulative 5 stars and I can't argue with that. --- --- ---Gessner's has been on my list for a while but it was about a 35 minute drive from my house, so I finally just made it there recently.As you're driving up, you definitely seem like you're in the wrong place. It's pretty industrial and just looks like you're in the midst of a bunch of automotive shops. The only tell is that they have a fairly large "BBQ sign" off the main road that you turn onto off Sawdust.We ordered food to go and then headed to the park to eat it there while our son played on the playground. While this was not something Gessner's did, the weather was absolutely perfect on this day, so that made the experience *that* much nicer.As for the food itself, I went with the loaded baked potato with chopped beef. It was excellent. One of the better loaded baked potatoes I've had, and there are many in the area. The only two snafu's were that my wife did not receive BBQ sauce with her brisket sandwich, even though it was requested, which made it a bit dry. And they did not provide us with plastic cutlery, so we had to pop into another restaurant to grab some. For dessert, we had the banana cream pie cake and Oreo truffles. They were also awesome. The banana cream pie cake was just what it sounds like: banana cream pie on top of cake. Usually, it's just in pie form, but the cake on the bottom layer was a nice touch. The Oreo truffle was almost too quickly scarfed down to have much of an opinion other than: "good".If we lived closer, we would make this a regular stop, but we'll happily visit again when in the area.

We ordered takeout..., brisket, 2 kinds of sausage, Coleslaw, potato salad and beans. BEST brisket we've ever had! The sides were unique recipes that were just excellent. We didn't want to review this place because we don't want it to change! Sometimes greater demand can cause corners to be cut and quality to be sacrificed. Please keep up the good work!!

Couldn't find an authentic BBQ location open early enough until I came across Gessner's. Before 11am there are only 3 items available. We had the breakfast brisket taco, delicious. We also ordered the brisket hash with medium eggs, delightful. It was just enough BBQ for breakfast to not make me feel heavy. Cody was a great host. Very hospitable and kind. I would recommend this place to anyone. Wish I could have tried lunch options but maybe next time. Definitely worth stopping by!

This was my first time eating texas bbq and I was extremely surprised. This restaurant is hidden away on a small road between a few car shops, giving it a cozy vibe. The seating area is decorated with nostalgic pieces of art and furniture.The ribs were the best part of the meal with brisket being a close second. The meat is tender and juicy and fall apart easily. The beans carried solid flavor and the potatoes gave the meal more bulkI would gladly come back to this place if I was ever in the area

Pretty good stuff with the nice people that work there. I would go back there. And now I'm going to just ramble on so that I can meet the 85 character minimum to write a review.

We're in town from Utah & wanted some BBQ before we left town. Found this hidden place. We came because of the great reviews and it held the standard. Nice employees & owner. Had all 3 meats. Favorite was the ribs, they truly did fall off the bone just picking them up. 2nd was brisket. Our 3rd was the sausage. All 3 were fantastic that's just our ranking on preference. Sides were amazing. Corn, beans, & potato salad all great. Then finished with banana cream pie which was a game changer. Everything great. Worth going.
