Meating Place Barbeque

11.5.22This place is close to our new home so we were wanting to try it. I came in to get a stuffed bbq baked potato, some sides and I bought 2 desserts. () The potato was good and the chopped brisket was just ok. Not much flavor to it. I ordered a coleslaw and it was not to my liking but my husband said it was different but good. My husband's side choice was fried okra. He said the okra was tasty and not greasy. He would order it again. Now let's talk about the desserts!(I can't believe I forgot to take a photo of them.) I ordered a peach cobbler and a key lime pie. I really liked the cobbler but the show stopper was the key lime pie. O M G--it was the best key lime pie I have EVER had anywhere!!!! My husband agrees! I would try the bbq again, and I will definitely be back for the desserts! ...I wonder if they sell a whole key lime pie? I would love one for Thanksgiving.

We tried this the other day, very good food. Chicken fried steak fingers amazing. Very friendly staff, the sweet tea was also amazing.

Brisket was very dry. Only a little bit of fat on the bottom of the slices. Beans were salty and the mac and cheese was flavorless. Bread was good though, but it seems to be just store bought.Pretty expensive too. Two meals and two sides came out to over $30.And the place was empty. I felt bad for the musician, who sounded pretty good. Though I guess they get a group of seniors in once a week. This is what happens when you only have one option for BBQ in your Texas town.

This is very good barbecue - the deserts aren't bad either! Service was outstanding and very friendly. Definitely recommend.

The 1904 sandwich was delicious. Meat was very juicy yet a little cold dus to arriving an hour before closing. I will definitely be back in the early time of the day to get the full effect of the sandwich. The staff was super friendly a d the live music was amazing.

We just moved to Texas and honestly, we are obsessed. It's been everything we hoped and prayed for and more. However, it's been hard to find a bbq spot. We've been to three different places that locals have recommended and they all were pretty bland. We kept driving by this one on the way to get groceries and today was the day I stopped in. There was a band playing great music, I love me some good live music!! The gal at the front helped me with my order and the only disappointment I had, was the fact that I couldn't leave them a tip. I didn't have cash and I wish I coulda tipped'um. Next time I'll be bringing cash because this place is amazing. Had the opportunity to meet the owner, he was real kind with a great sense of humor. Just got done demolishing the food we ordered and we are VERY pleased to say, this place is it for us! AND it's only five minutes away from us. YAY. If you are into Delicious comfort food, great bbq and family owned restaurants, this place needs to be it!

Why 4 stars? Because I would happily make somewhat regular appearances here. --- --- ---I am annoyed that I only recently discovered this place, otherwise I would have visited much sooner. We were eating dinner in downtown Magnolia, and I opened up Yelp to try to find a place nearby for ice cream or some sort of dessert, and Meating Place popped up. I bookmarked it then and we ended up visiting a couple of weeks later.My wife and I usually opt for different things so we can share and try multiple things, but in this case, we both went straight for a BBQ potato. She opted for brisket, and I went with pulled pork. I literally gobbled up every single square inch of mine, which is a pretty good sign I enjoyed it.For sides, we opted for baked beans (5-stars), fried okra (4-stars) and mac-n-cheese (2-stars). Unfortunately, the mac was a big miss for me, but the good news is that it was the only thing I really disliked during our visit. I am not sure what I tasted in it, but it reminded me of goat cheese, which I really despise. My wife didn't taste it, so maybe it was just me, but I kept trying it, and kept tasting it. Aside from that, it just kind of looked and tasted like store-bought mac. For dessert, we ordered banana pudding (5-stars) and strawberry shortcake (3-stars). There were plenty of other great options in the dessert case, and I very much look forward to trying many of them during future visits.Next time we're craving BBQ potatoes, this is where we're coming!

The atmosphere was great, and time and my wife told the owner that it was our first time and he gave us a few things to try. Fall off the bone ribs, juicy turkey, and amazing brisket. Their house bbq uniquely sauce is sweet and tangy.

Was great meating Buddy and very much appreciated his hospitality to some Kansas City boys looking for good Texas bbq. Everything was awesome. The ribs were so tender and tips were perfectly juicy. I loved the fries which are a curly steak fry. I've never had them like that in KC. Buddy went above and beyond by digging up some of the best burnt ends ever. If your near definitely stop in and see him. Just look for his big prized bull chained up in the front yard.

Service is amazing, the food is just perfect. Cant go wrong with the holy smoke quesadilla.
