The Smokehouse

This is BBQ done wrong! This can't even be considered BBQ by Texas standards. Brisket without a smoke ring? Watch videos and they'll teach you to make better food. The Brisket had no flavor. Not salt, not seasonings, not even a smoke flavor. The chicken was finished cooking 4 hours ago but they continued cooking it and then served it to us. The sausage was horribly disgusting. I spit it out immediately. The skin was crispy but the inside was like mushy turkey burger. The beans and green beans were ok. Brisket fries had no flavor either. Not an enjoyable meal at all. Heed my warning y'all, drive further for better food.

My wife and I were heading back from a weekend vacation and really wanted BBQ. Of course we prefer to give our money to a mom and pop shop or a franchise not available near us, but in this case, it left us a bit disappointed. I ordered the brisket and sausage plate.. The brisket we mostly fat and once trimmed that of, was like 4 bites and I really wasn't a fan of the flavor of the sausage. The okra wasn't bad (hard to screw up fried okra unless it's in the fryer too long) and def liked the cream corn. That corn had a very good flavor and was pretty tasty I also tried the peach cobbler and it was def a miss (1) it tasted like was fresh out of the refrigerator so very cold when I was hoping for warm or room temp and 2) it was nearly all breading and not much peach, and the breading was flavorless as well). Overall being a BBQ lover born and raised in the South, I might be a bit too picky, but this didn't hit the spot at all, so next time in this part of the state, I'll look elsewhere if wanting BBQ

We passed this smokehouse and came back to try it as it was happy hour. We got the turkey legs and Ribs Okra and green beans, the turkey legs were so good and very big and tender. The green beans was not what I was expecting they tasted like can beans with good flavor broth. The Okra was hot and very good. The worst were the ribs they were hard and some areas were very tender but mostly tough. I was really hope that they were a wow but maybe next time or not. The lady at the register was so sweet and so was the other lady. The restroom was clean, but no running warm water. The restaurant was really busy so maybe we just got a very bad batch of Ribs. Well till next time hopefully

I USED TO love this place. I would only place to go orders and the food WAS amazing. I just ordered through a delivery app and will probably never order again. I paid almost 30 bucks for one plate and an extra side. The brisket was super dry, they only gave 1 rib and it was super thin, the sausage was mushy on the inside, the rice has zero flavor, the potato salad tasted like HEB potato salad and the green beans had a funky taste.

Great food friendly staff. I really enjoyed the food and service more than anything. The atmosphere was pleasant and up to my standards.

My husband and I got variety plates of sausage, brisket, and chicken (with different sides). Everything was so so good but I think the brisket was my favorite!

If I could give this place zero stars I would , got 2 turkey legs and they were terrible .undersized, the meat was super dry and tasted like they had just been re-heated There's a reason why this place always looks empty , since the original owner Bob passed away it's nothing like it used to be

I have been going here for 50 years since it was Bobs. Since they have Larry still cooking it has remained good until lately. The only thing I can think of is they are now using below standard meat for brisket. I purchased brisket by the pound which is off the charts expensive but my meat was fatty and stringy. Last visit was dry. I just cannot waste my money on this. Very sad because this was my go to for so long.

What could improve, everything. Meat Portions are small, two tablespoons of bar b q sauce given with meal. Condiments are very limited. The service was ok. However the ambiance, well, low rate. Music from a boom box, unattended kid with loud music from an iPad. Never will I return. I know much better bar b Que can be found else where, where one can enjoy a well served meal with nice ambiance. This is a low budget, low expectation experience place.

Called to place a large order. Refused to honor their posted prices on their website. Didn't even make it on the door before I got a horrible impression.
