I haven't written a review in over 5 years but after going to Gonzo's, I felt inspired. I live not too far from Gonzo's, have driven by to see the line on Friday's at 11am and heard from others how great it was. So one Sunday I got online and pre-ordered from their website. This helps you skip the line and laugh at the peasants standing around waiting. It's like having a Disney Fast Pass. I ordered a half pound of brisket(lean), an order of Banana Toulouse and a bottle of their Cherry Cola BBQ sauce. I then walked out not making eye contact with the starving crowd. I grabbed a piece of brisket in the car and immediately regretted not ordering more brisket. I was half tempted to go back and stand in line. The brisket is the best I've ever had. This is not an overstatement, this chubby boy has been around and has eaten his fair share of bbq. The brisket had the perfect amount of charred fat, smokiness, flavor and meaty texture. Its perfect. Do not bastardize it with sauce. It needs none! The Banana Toulouse is basically banana pudding with cinnamon as far as I can tell. I'm a banana anything fanatic so it was a diabetic decadence of a dessert. The cherry cola bbq sauce is on the thinner side so it's perfect for pulled pork or pulled chicken. I can't wait to try more of their items but I will never pass up on the brisket when I order. I forgot to preorder this week so I'll probably be a peasant standing in line this week.

So it's really Damn good Texas style BBQ with a Louisiana spin. A Louisiana little hidden gem. I had to try a little bit of everything of whatever they had left and what I got.....It was some delicious food. Only open Thursday and Friday and get your butt there early because they will sell out. Check out their website for the specials. Parking is a bit of a hassle and the service is a little slow but other than that if you're in the New Orleans / Plantation Road area, go to Luling and find Gonzos for some delicious Texas style bbq. Til we eat again

This place is not a 5 star, it's off the charts! I finally got over to the area after trying to get here for a minute. They have very limited hours on Thursday and Friday. All of the bbq is perfection and that's no joke. The best bbq I have ever had and probably will ever have. I am still day dreaming about the brisket. Big portions and friendly service. If you need to take a day off to get here it is worth it.

The brisket boudin was everything I it would be and then some! The mac and cheese was really tasty too! I really love the side pickled onion, jalapeños, and spicy pineapple. Mixing and matching every bite with different combinations of flavors was the best part. I took off work to go here. Will definitely return!

Take into consideration for a moment that there are, at this moment in time, nothing but 5-star reviews for Gonzo's Smokehouse! That is an exceptional accomplishment, and I agree with every one of the 5 star reviews!! The owner, Jason, has a gift and a passion when it comes maintaining his product. Every item sold at Gonzo's is high quality with even higher quality service. The barbeque offered each week may change a little from different beef items to pork, to turkey or some combination of all 3 and more. Honestly, you cannot go wrong with any item on the menu, they are all so well made that you will wish you ordered more. My absolute favorite items are the beef rib, beef cheeks, beef brisket, brisket tacos, and hot sausage smash burgers. Smash burgers or tacos are offered on Thursday's and a full barbeque menu is offered on Friday's. Gonzo's is very active on social media to let their customers know what is available that week and the information provided includes preordering options. If you are considering visiting Gonzo's, don't think twice and definitely just go, you will love every bite!!

I don't know how I missed reviewing Gonzo's.If you are anywhere near the state of Louisiana this is the place to be for bbq.I've never had anything this phenomenal again.Every single thing is amazing.If you want to be in the know follow them on Facebook they tell you when pre order is going live, and you're going to want to preorder as much as possible. Sometimes they have limited items that you can only get if you stand in line for it, and let me tell you it's so worth it. They have a smaller indoor seating area, but you can also take it to go. If you're not sure about what to get or how much to get just ask, everyone here is very friendly and they don't make you feel rushed. The Brisket boudin is in a class of its own. You'll never eat something so delicious in your life. All of the different variations of boudin I've had were delicious.The Brisket is amazing either moist or lean.The pork belly and brisket burnt ends are little bite sized meat candy deliciousness.Usually the bbq places I've been to have decent BBQ and really not good sides. Not the case here, everything they touch is magic.Mac and cheese is deliciousGouda corn grits are deliciousDirty rice is deliciousCookie butter bread pudding is deliciousSo do yourself a favor and get some BBQ Friday from Gonzo's and change your taste buds life.

I'm going to add to the amazing 5-star reviews here. My husband and I drove 60 miles to eat here. We first experienced Gonzo's at an event with multiple food trucks. We were blown away by all of Jason's BBQ'd meats. We kept promising ourselves to visit the Luling eatery but time gets away. Anyway, as summer is ending and we'll be going back to teaching, we made a commitment to pre-order. Beef ribs, brisket and burnt pork belly ends, and we were also able to get some sides, the boudin, and a slab of pork ribs while we were there. Everything was amazing. Plenty of leftovers. Froze some, too, for later. Expect to wait in line as they don't want too many people in the line inside. We didn't have a problem getting a table, however, as any people got their orders to go. Not a huge place, but does have some tables with checkered tablecloths appropriate for a BBQ place. The staff were helpful and worked efficiently to serve everyone as quickly as possible. If you're a BBQ snob like us, you must try Gonzo's!

Gonzo's Smokehouse is the bomb! If you haven't ever heard about this place or even seen it, I can totally relate! I was going to visit my son in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and he, like myself, is a bbq connoisseur. We were talking about where he could help me celebrate my birthday, and he started digging and came up with Gonzo's, an hour and 33 minute drive, and 86 miles from his house!! This place only opens two days a week, Thursdays from 11:30 until 2:00 and Fridays from 11:30 until 3:00!!I said to myself, how in the hell does a place survive with only being open two days a week, and then reading further about Gonzo's, I found out that there is a line around the block waiting for this place to open on those days and they sell out very quickly! So I said to myself, am I willing to wait hours before a bbq place opens, again, (my son took me to Austin, Texas, and we waited almost 3 hours) for some good bbq? Then, after reading about the place, my son saw that a day before, you can "pre-order" anything on the menu, and they will have it for you whenever you arrive, the next day, and you'll still have whatever you order, even if they run out of a menu item! Well, I said that was a "no brainer" and my son virtually ordered almost every single item on the menu, well over $100 of this famous bbq, the day before we were to make the drive, knowing that if for some odd reason we don't make it the next day, you will lose your complete purchase!!The next day, we made the trek to Gonzo's, and from the minute we arrived, and barely saw the place, because you could easily miss the signage on the glass window is when I knew it was going to be great! Back up some two hours before we arrived at 1:30, and I told my son to call the place and see if they could have our order hot, and they said "no problem, we'll place It in the warmer now!"This place is crazy good, from walking into the place and seeing the ambiance, and from talking to the staff, you absolutely know that your meal is going to be great!I totally have to say, the wait was worth it, and we'll definitely be back!
