TLDR: Was visiting my daughter, we decided to do a little road trip to some hill cntry towns. I…read morethought we would do a bbq sandwich tour/comparison. I'd earmarked Old 300 as the place in Blanco, to go up against the others. We arrived on a Monday about 1:20p. After lunch hour, and the place was packed. (that's an indicator right there. One of the slowest days for restaurants during the week, and not at peak meal time.) The line went quick. They have what's listed as a "BBQ Sandwich" - it's a blend of chopped brisket and chopped pulled pork (not in long, stringy strands) together. We were going to hit other towns & sandwiches, so for the two of us we just ordered one sandwich and a side of potato salad. We got it to-go. Sat at an empty table. Got ourselves fixins - some doctored up onions (sliced, seems like they sauté them a little in butter and then top w fresh cracked black pepper), pickles, and both their Sweet and their Spicy sauces. They brought it out quickly, less than 5 min. We opted to just eat it there instead of take it to the next town. We topped with pickles, onions, and the Sweet sauce. Oh my freakin' sweet Lord! In this small Texas town with an unassuming spot a block and a half off the main road going through town, easily one of the top 5 bbq sandwiches of all time - no joke! To break it down, we tasted all items individually. The onions are delectable - softened from the sauté, good moisture from the butter, delicious. The Sweet sauce is crazy good. A fantastic balance of sweet, tang, & slight bite. I've never said this before but it's true - told my daughter, "I could just sit here and dip these pickles in this sauce for the next 30 minutes and be completely satisfied." The sauce, yes, is that good. Daughter is not a heat/spice lover, but she did try the Spicy sauce and we both thought it was definitely tame as far as heat goes. We both thought the Spicy sauce was okay. The Sweet sauce, though, stellar! We were overwhelmed by how good it all was. When we got to the car, I said, "All the ingredients together was like a symphony." Next time I visit her, am absolutely gonna suggest another drive out to Blanco specifically, to try some other items on the menu. But I can say this, for the BBQ Sandwich, pickles, doctored onions, and Sweet sauce alone, Old 300 is worth a generous drive and you will 100 percent be happy as a lark. Thanks for fantastic meal, Old 300. Will most definitely be back.

The meat was seasoned well, but the brisket was a little dry. The barbecue sauce it's pretty good. They give you pickles when you order your meat and they have an option of dill pickle versus sweet pickles. I liked both. The meat and the sides are ordered in different locations. The sides are ordered at the counter as soon as you walk in. The potato salad was very good with enough mustard, but not so much that's it's overwhelming. The Beans had good flavor as well. We did try the banana pudding and that wasn't great. Everyone is super friendly. They have plenty of seating inside. Parking is street parking and you may have to walk depending how busy the area is.

Very rustic country location and once inside you know you are in a Texas country BBQ. Staff was friendly and helpful choosing our food. They suggested going with the family portions to share which was perfect. For 3 people we ordered 1/2 lb each of lean brisket (moist also available), turkey, and garlic sausage. For sides we went with coleslaw and charro beans. Way too much food for us, but perfect for a large leftover plate. Consensus of all three of us was: -Brisket had a perfect blackened crust, with a good red smoke ring. Very little fat and still very moist meat. 7 of 5 stars! -Turkey was well seasoned, very flavorful, and smoked to perfection. 6 of 5 stars! -Garlic sausage was the home run here. When we ordered they only had the garlic one left. I was hesitant to order expecting a strong garlic flavor. It was the perfect garlic hint of flavor with the amazing in-house made sausage. Outer skin had a snap when you bit into it and the flavor of the sausage is a melody of bbq flavor that overwhelms the taste buds. 10 of 5 stars! -Coleslaw was vinegary with some fresh sliced red pepper and fresh jalapeños which was a good touch. 5 of 5 stars. -Charro beans were flavored to perfection. 5 of 5 stars. -And we can't forget the bbq sauce. This was the perfect pairing for the meat. Obviously house made with the perfect balance between spicey and sweetness. Wife and I both said it was the best we ever had. Blows away the sauce from our favorite bbq location here in San Antonio. Another 10 of 5 stars! Fresh squeezed lemonade for all of us and they brought us free refills. Probably the best bbq we have had....ever!

Brisket and burnt ends were both top notch. Smoke ring on the brisket and peppery crust on the burnt ends. They had some specials that looked amazing too. We thought in our first time here we should sample the staples ....brisket, burnt ends and turkey. (also tempted by the confit sausage...) The side of beans we got was also made with love. Lots of depth of flavor. We split some of the homemade desserts as well and both the cookie and butter cake were great.

Expertly executed brisket, bold smoked turkey, juicy chicken with crispy skin, two kinds of sausage, ribs; you simply can't go wrong. The sides are what food dreams are made of. Sweet potato casserole, cheesy potatoes (think loaded potatoes au gratin), mac & cheese, flavorful beans, potato salad... your biggest problem is choosing what to eat! The people here are incredibly kind and helpful. From suggestions and sage guidance, to throwing a joke here and there to make you feel like you're just here for food at a friend's place. We were lucky enough to meet the pit master on our first visit. The humility on this lady was the stuff that most people aspire to. Imagine being one of a handful of female pitmasters in Texas (a state known to excel in this cuisine) and not having an ego about you. This lady is one in a billion, and she needs to be revered and adored. We always leave here with full hearts and full bellies, and we try to plan our next visit as soon as possible.

In case you need convincing: ESAUL ("The Smoke") and GRECIA ("The Sugar") husband-and-wife team have committed to the highest standards in beloved BBQ, earning them distinctions all the way from James Beard, "Best of" Texas Monthly & San Antonio Magazine, ++ their 2025 MICHELIN award. This Monday 31AUG, they'll be featured on FOOD NETWORK PITMASTERS which means best to get in line now before it blows up even more (although there's shade & YETI-cooled water for waiting). In my case, the line moved quickly with JERRY & IZZY tag-teaming trays - tasting notes as follows: COLESLAW - Refreshing in its simplicity - crunchy, slightly sweet & snappy - exactly as my heart desires CHICHARONI MACARONI - Creamy & cheesy with cracklin crunch, touch of black pepper PULLED PORK - Buttery tender & topped with green tomatillo - I'd love to try this on one of their sandwiches with a combination of PICKLED FAVORITES (onions & spicy pickles were FIRE) PRIME BRISKET - MAIN EVENT needs no sauce, in fact could be served solo and make a meal - it is hands-down the best, most flavorful & moist brisket EVER!!! They say "come hungry," I'd add come early if you'd like to try the house-made sausage, TRI-TIP on Saturdays. I might have to bring another stomach (or at least make a second visit) to try the dessert - cheesecake appears to be served by the 1/2 LB as well, and looks just as good as Mom's! Even so, I'm a 100% satisfied customer, seeing full delivery on their promise of "bringing people together" with BBQ that's "slowly smoked, scratch-made, with genuine hospitality."

Best BBQ I've ever eaten. Really. And I know BBQ…read more We ordered: brisket, tritip, sausage and turkey. Sides: corn, mac, slaw, beans, egg salad, pickled nopales/serranos/bell peppers, pico. Everything was extraordinary. Very helpful staff. Funky hole in the wall venue. Pro tip: come at opening 11:00 am on Sunday morning to avoid a wait. My favorites: tritip with pico, sausage by itself, brisket in the thin and tangy BBQ sauce, elote corn, nopales, beans. But, it was all good and you won't be sorry ordering anything on the menu. Even the complimentary onions and pickles are house made. The sausage was almost like the filling in a dim sum dumpling. The pico was some of the best I've ever tasted, which sounds ridiculous but there it is. The tritip is to die for. The brisket melts. Excellent turkey. Bring a group, order everything, and take home leftovers. Highly recommended. Best of Texas and probably beyond.

I digress. Let's get this review going: This family-owned bbq joint opened their door just a couple of years ago (2023). Don't let this new establishment concern you because these folks have been at it for years. Their previous place was in Rosenberg and it opened back in 1990. Prior to that , the owner's parents started their first place back in 1964. Proper, generational barbecue...it's in their blood. In fact, I'm pretty sure their blood is bbq sauce. They know what they're doing! The restaurant and covered patio are modern and industrial with wood, brick, and metal elements. Ample seating inside and out. The food is bombastic! Sometimes they have an Italian beef sandwich that I'm just crazy about. Love these other sandwiches too: Brisket Turkey Sausage Boyfriend loves the pulled pork sandwich. The brisket nachos are mouth-watering goodness. They have brisket tostadas that I've not tried yet but definitely plan to. I lose my mind for the peach crumble and the boyfriend loves the pecan cobbler. Sides we love: Brisket rice!! Tater tot casserole!! Mac + cheese Buttered potatoes Do yourselves a favor, go pig out at this pit room. You'll be glad you did! PS: stellar service too

I went in today with my three-year-old son during lunch hour on a weekday and it just felt like the elder crowd was like "what are they doing here?" As I walked in. Now Maybe I'm a little guarded I mean, I'm a single full-time Dad prior military, so I'm protective and observant. Plus, some guy in a big ol truck of course ( mind you I have a truck) decided that he wanted to almost hit my son and I as we' attempted to walking across the parking lot. I digress, but it was to the extent that I didn't even want to sit inside, so we sat on the patio. Which reminds me 91° outside and the patio well well ventilated, w/ breeze and felt good. All in all just an iffy experience. Food was good not great turkey was dry but the baked potato salad will have me back through the drive-thru through.

Stopped by Harmons BBQ and ordered the chopped pork. They do not call it pulled pork, but it is…read morepretty much the same thing. The pork was flavorful, tender, and had good BBQ flavor. Compared to some of the bigger BBQ places around town, I think Harmons holds its own when it comes to quality. The ambiance also fits the BBQ experience, with a nice Western, old-school feel. They even have a cool vintage-style gas pump that adds some character to the place. The brownie was fresh and delicious, and definitely worth trying. The sides were good as well, although they were a little hard to find on the menu boards, so it took some looking to figure out the options. One thing to know is that they do not take Amex, so bring another card or payment method. Overall, good-quality BBQ without feeling like you have to go to one of the big-name spots. I would come back to try some of their other meats and sides.
