Visited this place for lunch and it was amazing. The people were so friendly and the establishment was clean. Ribs had a sweet tang, Mac n cheese was fresh, and beans were delicious. Check them out - they offer much more. read more

Honestly, I don't see how this place is still in business. The flavors are all off! It tasted more like Italian or Greek seasoning than bbq and the sauce was so watered down and flavorless. The cubed brisket (I think that's what it was?) was tough and flavorless, the macaroni and potato salads were bland with TOO much onion in them to taste anything else and the beans with tiny squares of ham in them still lacked any normal bean flavor. How do you screw up beans?? The sausage was the only thing that remotely tasted normal. This is NOT the best Texas has to offer for bbq, I could do so much better in my own backyard with a simple fire pit and a bottle of cheap Heinz bbq sauce. Save your money! read more

Not my first time here, so I went non traditional with the brisket street tacos. They were great! The pico and cheese made for a great flavor profile. Staff is always friendly. This is a Hidden Gem!! Not a huge dining area 40+ Decor is eclectic Texas read more

Amazing food and great ambiance. Food was out quick and delicious! Would recommend to anyone wanting to try something packed with flavor! read more

An interesting stop for lunch. While on a business trip passing through Midland I looked for a place for lunch. Browns BBQ it was! I chose the 1 meat & 2 sides I went with the Pulled Pork, Potato Salad, &. Baked Beans! The pulled pork was very tasty but the baked beans stole the show as did the potato salad both were excellent choices. The one thing I did not care for was the BBQ sauce - a very high vinegar flavor. The staff were extremely friendly & helpful! We arrived after the lunch rush so there were plenty of places to sit. Overall it was a good experience and would recommend trying. read more

Browns BarBQ - 3 Meat Regular BBQ Plate Brisket, ribs and rib eye Mac and bacon wrapped green beans - Barbeque Near Me - Midland, Texas

We discovered that Midland, TX of all places has a legit bbq place that has an *entire vegan menu*. People don't believe us! We have someone with severe lactose intolerance and the fact that you can get all these items with vegan sauces and cheeses and know it's safe for them is just so amazing to us because normally eating out with a dairy allergy is harder than you'd expect it to be lol . Aside from that, we also have several people who are vegetarian/vegan for medical health reasons, so this place really does it all. We can have ppl with us who want the real authentic Texas bbq, and our friends with dietary restrictions can ALL enjoy the same amazing food. The owners are so friendly and accommodating, the food is all so hot and fresh and made to order. The vegan options truly are delicious and even if you're not vegetarian/vegan I'd say give it a try! read more

My husband and I were in Midland for the night and craved barbecue. We read the reviews and gave it a shot. We both ordered brisket platters. The brisket was so tender and cubed . My sides were Cole slaw and truffled potatoes were delicious. We had a nice conversation with the owner who was very attentive to customers. If we ever make it to Midland again, we would be sure to frequent the restaurant. read more

We arrived on a Friday at 5:30 - and they had sold out of food. We were disappointed and trying to figure out plan B, when Mr. Brown said "I'll get you some Scoobie snacks to hold you over". Five minutes later he came out with a bin of giant ribs, then made us take a bottle of his own BBQ sauce. The ribs were fantastic and so was the sauce. But most of all, we were so impressed and appreciative of how Mr. Brown takes care of customers. My friend had been here for breakfast once and also had a story of Mr. Brown's extraordinary hospitality. When I'm back in Midland my top food priority will be Browns BBQ! read more

Amazing service and great food. Owner is very hands on and knowledgeable. Owner went above and beyond to make sure our service was great.

I went in and got the rib eye steak sandwich and my steak was cooked perfectly medium rare (as requested) and truffle fries that are very flavorful on the side. I also ordered a side of the bacon wrapped asparagus and wish I had ordered more! The gentleman up front was very welcoming and kind. So glad I stopped by read more

Great!!! Clean, good variety in the menu, delightful owners. DELICIOUS burgers! Don't miss this gem!

I had a chopped beef sandwich and cole slaw for lunch. The sandwich was large, plenty of meat, but it had too much fat for my liking. The taste was good. I went with a friend that had a sliced beef sandwich and a side order of sausage. He let me try a piece of the sausage and it was good. I didn't care for the cole slaw, but I guess everybody has their own favorites. This slaw was dry and had some sort of nuts or something in it. I didn't finish it and I would order something else next time. Service was pretty good, but I was surprised that they don't accept cash. Seating was adequate, but it's relatively small. read more

Brisket perfectly smoked! Tender, great flavor! Excellent beans! Great service! So nice to have delish bbq like this in Midland.

Everything here is great from the food to the owners. Super friendly, they make you feel like family and best friends. I'm vegetarian and my husband is not so this place is perfect because they have something for everyone. This is not a fast food restaurant, everything is cooked by order so don't go here if you are in a hurry just go to fall in love with it. LOVE THIS PLACE read more

Hook line and sinker. Ill tell you what UPS don't have NOTHING on this Mr Brown. I travel the country quite often and have lived in 37 states doing sales and also over the road trucking so when I'm hungry I often do my research. Unfortunately there is too many bbq places in Texas to choose from. As God as my witness there is no longer any other choices. Its Browns BBQ or nothing. The levels of respect I have for this buisness and the owners is out of this world. You will not have a more personalized experience. Mr Brown and his wife were very welcoming the second I walked in, honestly felt like walking in my own personal home. The atmosphere, the smell, HEAVEN ON EARTH! Mr Brown always says he doesn't want to float his own boat when it comes to his cooking, but my hell if he did he'd sail the 7 seas lookin more fresh then Magellan himself. Okay okay now to the food, for starters your typical BBQ joint has okay meat, usually smoked brief then cranked up temp to finish quick. Not here, everything is low and slow all day long. Absolutely NO SHORTCUTS, as a pitmaster myself I would know. Your average BBQ place will have there typical meats then offer 4 or 5 bottles of sauce to slather your quick smoked meat. But what they really are doing is covering there poor process. Mr Brown has one sauce that I know of, I feel a sauce is an insult to a meat so I always get it on the side for only light compliments of gods given oh so delicious choice of animals. Its sweet, its smokey, tangy, and just a wee lil dash of heat. I could probably drink it like a soup if I wanted (don't try that). So okay off topic again im sorry back to the reason your here. THE MEATS!! I got the brisket, rib eye, sausage, and pulled pork, and the owner insisted I try the train wreck as well!! Brisket: Juicy, melty, perfect smoke, eye rolling delicious Rib eye: Perfectly grilled, great seasoning, just the right fat. Smoked Sausage: Holy SMOKES literally ive never had a better Sausage ever! It was a good mild-medium heat with an absolute indescribable taste when you bite into it and crack the casing open and it just dribbles your taste buds with little mini sprinkles of Jesus himself working all sorts of wonders on your tongue. I couldn't get enough of it... Pulled pork: just wow. So good so wet. So much flavor if this pork had its own theme song it would be Cardi B's new song WAP (WET ASS PORK) The Trainwreck: Last but not least this item is only a dollar. Yes a dollar and im not going to tell you everything that's in it because all you need to know is its a mixture of love in a tortilla. But you can't find a decent dollar item anywhere else anymore. But Mr Brown will show you otherwise, great story behind that item too make sure you hear it! This is probably the longest review I've ever written but I truly wish I could hook up my semi to his trailer and just take him and his family with me. Everything is so fresh and so unique you won't beat it anywhere else. See it for yourself ladies and gentlemen. The Browns WILL NOT DISSAPOINT! read more

I was visiting Midland on a work trip for 5 days, and realized pretty quick that I was in the wrong city to be vegan. Thank goodness I stumbled across Browns. I was only able to eat here once since their store hours end somewhat early, otherwise I would've eaten here everyday. The owners are so cool, friendly, and very knowledgable about plant based eating, had a wonderful conversation with them. I ordered the kitchen sink for $20, It was like a giant taco. I expected a bit bigger of a portion for that price, but I was satisfied with it. read more

They have vegan options in Midland TX! Today I got the impossible tacos and they did not disappoint! So good and flavorful! The staff was really nice and they prepared my order quickly. I will definitely be back. I'm very grateful that they have these options and they taste AMAZING! read more

A surprise place to find not only vegetarian options, but actual vegan options. Not just one or two things, there were six to eight choices. The owner was fantastic. This is why we love to support owner operated restaurants. Everything was cooked to order and made fresh. The pico was amazing. The vegetable of the day was a mixture of sprouts, asparagus, mushrooms, bell peppers and lightly sautéed in olive oil. This was great. The impossible tacos were to die for. What great flavor. Wife had the chicken and brisket tacos. She said that was some of the best chicken she had ever had. Tender and juicy. The brisket hit the spot the way a slow smoked brisket should. Had a great burnt crust and good solid smoke ring. The potato salad is some of the best potato salad she has ever had that was not hers(wink wink). Overall. The food was excellent and the owner was magnificent. read more

Incredible! A must try! You will eat EVERY morsel on your plate and look forward to coming back. My brother & I were passing through on a road trip when we saw Brown's BarBQ on Yelp. I am a vegan and he is not so it was a perfect option for us both. I got the vegan tacos -- SO DAMN GOOD! I will give a word of caution on the spice level -- I loved it but if you don't enjoy heat don't get the jalapeños or ask for them on the side. My brother got the brisket sandwich with all the toppings and a side of potato salad. His exact words, "my insides are smiling right now. The brisket was perfectly smoked and complimented rather than overpowered the flavor of the meat." Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to Brown's BarBQ! They are also so nice & friendly. We will definitely be making Brown's BarBQ our regular pit stop whenever traveling through Midland! read more

Delicious food and friendly service! Small steak was cooked perfectly and the ribs and brisket were outstanding. Thank you!

Wow! I've been vegan for over 3 Years and their IMPOSSIBLE burger made me forget it wasn't meat! The quality of the sides and condiments makes this a great pick. Service was great! Price was right. I will definitely Frequent this business. This is a highlight of my vegan journey. read more

Browns BarBQ - Vegan Impossible Burger! - Barbeque Near Me - Midland, Texas

On the road between Marfa and Dallas, and I searched Midland for "vegan". Great find. It's not vegan-only, but the vegan options include all the popular vegan meats, plus veggies, peppers, mushrooms, onions, pico, fake Gouda, etc. So good and so filling! He's not a food truck anymore; they're in a store front now. They were kind and welcoming. (And their outside smokers of real meat look amazing too.) We got the vegan bowl and the vegan kitchen sink ;-) read more

Have no words other than what a GEM for vegans! On a road trip from Boston & finding vegan options in Texas has been pretty difficult. I know what your thinking "but it is a BBQ place" - well get rid of all your thoughts & make this a MUST STOP. Walked in & we were greeted by the owner, who I must say is one of the friendliest humans we've met this trip. Vegan options included - tacos, fajitas, burgers, etc. He sold us both on the impossible burger. We of course had to get the burger loaded (follow your heart Gouda, FYH Thousand island, mushrooms, peppers, onions, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, vegan soup dust (special spice)) -- also they make sure to clean the grill - seriously? That is a true understanding & appreciation for our lifestyle. Let me preface again we are from Boston where vegan food is readily available & this is THE BEST BURGER WE HAVE EVER HAD. We both looked at each other & said this is better than any meat burger we have ever had, even when we ate meat. It was absolutely outstanding!!! Finished it in what felt like seconds. Wish we could pack up this place & bring it home with us. Upon leaving we thanked the chef & owner and he goes "Y'all wanna take a selfie" in true Texas fashion. Of course we could not resist!!! Do yourself a huge favor & get in there & try these plant based options you will not be disappointed!!! read more

We're from out of town & picked Brown's bbq on a whim and I am SO GLAD we did!!! Literally everything was amazing - I had the Ribeye with Mac & cheese and baked beans and my son had a burger & fries which were also delish! They don't have indoor seating but they do have a little set up outside that worked just fine. All the staff were friendly and courteous even though we went in an hour before close. Can't say enough good things about this place! We'll be back for sure. read more

Absolutely love Browns BarBQ. The Impossible burger is done to perfection. Love the vegan options for sauces and cheeses. Fries are seasoned and golden.

This is a great find!! BBQ Has great flavor and does NOT need sauce!! We will definitely be back!! Next time we will try the vegan menu.

3 things I didn't like. 1) price: $22 for a lunch plate alone, no drink or add ons. 2) for that price, I expect to have more potato salad than a tablespoon. 3) Mixed veggie side was ruined for me by a super-hot pepper disguised among other bell-peppers. It burned my mouth for about 30 minutes. BBQ was pretty good, potato salad just okay, I've had much better, and mixed veggies ruined by that pepper. read more
