Killian's Meat Market, Deer Processing, Taxidermy & BBQ

This is our place to go for some good BBQ when we are in Hempstead. Besides BBQ, they processed meats hunted by you as well as mount the animals for display.

I always drive around this restaurant and I finally had time to try it out. Food is delicious and definitely going to start taking my lunches here when I'm in the area.

I see them more of a meat processor than otherwise before. They need to step there game up. Their "meat sticks" are worth the stop to grab some but I don't carry an ice chest in order for them to stay good til I get home. But I'll make an effort to grab some up whenever I can.They're pretty good. But unfortunately, now, that's now the only reason I'd stop here..

This was our very first time to visit and we were not disappointed. So happy that we did. The quality of their meat is on point. We live in Magnolia, TX and we have several meat markets around us. BUT we will make that extra 35 miles just to get our meats.

Stopped by to grab something for our road trip and what a pleasant surprise. The sausage was amazing, just enough kick to keep it interesting and the brisket has a nice flavor. Service was pleasant and quick. Back on the road with the best snack food-sausage and brisket!

Good chopped beef brisket sandwiches and I'm gonna smoke the jalapeño sausage on the pit tonight and I'll let y'all know how the sausage is.

We were on our way back to Houston, and my husband and I stopped to check out to see if they had BBQ. First time here and all I can say is wow!!!! We had the brisket sandwich, sliced sausage and potato salad. The brisket was cooked all the way through!! Great flavor!!The sausage was on point.. And the potato salad was great! Will definitely be back!! *sorry my brisket sandwich didn't make it!!!

Very disappointed in the service. I dropped off a hide 17 months ago and finally got it back today. It was dirty and still had 100s of burrs in it. I called and let them know I was very upset and they told me it wasn't feasible for them to remove the burrs I have had many hides done other places and have never had this happen

Warning! Don't order meat here they taking your deposit and say 21days. Three months later no product. Then call the cops when you demand either your product or refund. Then they say prove it and curse you out to a senior veteran citizen! Horrible customer service.

I think it's worth stopping in and getting some of their packaged meats; quality looked good and prices were fair. However I would NOT recommend getting a meal there. I ordered 1/4 lb of brisket, just wanted a small sample to see if it was worth a return visit. The girl behind the counter reached into a crock pot (it was then I knew I had made a mistake) and pulled out a bunch of slices and weighed it. She weighed out 3/4 of a pound and wrapped it in a tightly sealed wrap. When I mentioned again that I only wanted a 1/4 pound she said the slices were too big. I wasn't sure if she was just being disingenuous and trying to get rid of the brisket by making me buy more than I wanted, or really didn't know she could remove a few of the "too big" slices and get the weight to what I asked for, or close enough (a 1/2 pound more than I asked for is QUITE a difference). But I decided to say nothing. The brisket was as what a true brisket person would expect if it had been in a crock pot for a while; not true Texas brisket which seemed a shame given that they had nice offset smokers outside emanating a great smell (and they appeared to be using post oak wood); I have no idea why they would let it sit pre-cut in a crock pot; if anything I would assume they know that pre-cutting the meat begins the oxidation process, not good for food. If you want good brisket, go to a place called "First Class BBQ" which is literally 30 seconds down the road, maybe less. I went to First Class, ordered a 1/4 pound, was only charged for a quarter pound, but was likely given more than a quarter pound, given plenty of sides (onion, pickles, jalepenos)...and the brisket most definitely had NOT been put in a crock pot. I also tried the beef jerky made at this place and it was very good. As it so happens there's a Buc-cee's just a few miles down the road and I picked up some of the non-prepacked jerky and compared the two. Buc-cee's has a good reputation for their jerky but this place had better jerky, perhaps a bit over-salted but very good. So in summary, I'd definitely stop by this place to pick up some of their packaged meats; hamburgers, jerky, chicken, bacon, etc...but if you also was a bbq meal, drive literally 30 seconds north and go to 1st class bbq.
