They open at 10:30 am for lunch which is great for an early riser like myself. I was the only customer at this time so service was lightening fast. I ordered two ribs, beans and potato salad. The ribs were huge and had a ton of meat on them. I could barely finish them. I loved the beans too. I love beans of all kinds and these beans were unique.

We were cruising down the road and chilling after eating three edibles. We were on our way to…read moreAustin when we saw this place and thought, "Hell, let's give it a try." The service was good, the food was exceptional, and the atmosphere was perfect. But I judge a place the same way I judge a hotel, by the bathroom. The seat was clean. The seat was dry, which you don't find very often. There was plenty of toilet paper. And the latch on the stall worked perfectly. At that point, I realized I had found a five star bathroom. So I sat there a little longer to enjoy the peace and quiet and ate another gummy. While contemplating life, I noticed some writing on the stall wall. It said. "If you want the job done right, call Martha." I thought, Well, Martha sounds confident. So I decided to give her a call. Turns out it wasn't Martha. It was Bob's Plumbing. So I gave the place four stars. They really need to occasionally verify the phone numbers written on the stall walls. Although, honestly, after that bathroom inspection, I'd trust Bob with the plumbing.

When choosing my meat I let the server know that I wanted my meat lean. I asked for a slice brisket and a slice of sirloin. I also got a cup of green beans and coleslaw, and beans. The sides were very good buttttt.... The brisket was just OK, The sirloin was not good.I got the end cut where all the fat is. It was the long piece of fat that goes along the outside of the meat and that's what he chose to give me when I asked for a lean cut! I hardly got to eat any of the sirloin. Once I took the fat off of it there was not very much meat left, the meat that was left was tough and chewy and had pieces of gristle in it that you couldn't even bite through. I was very disappointed, but my dogs are very happy!

The owner came right up to the window, talked us through what they had and told us about the day's special. Just good old-fashioned hospitality.

The place is simple, no-frills and gets right down to business: good BBQ, friendly folks and quick service. Exactly the kind of hometown spot you hope to stumble across in a Texas town.

You'd have to try real hard to put up a more un-appealing storefront and ordering station than those at Young's BBQ. Crude set-up, lackluster atmosphere with sloppy hand scribbled notes taped or thumbtacked to most of the walls, cheap paper plates, all plastic eating utensils -- just a sad way to see a restaurant being run. A smart investor would build a clean, pleasant, well-run barbecue restaurant in Lampasas... right next door. I had the pork ribs, cold and disappointing. The pinto beans were tasty but room temperature. "Would you like something to drink? Get it yourself!" And half of the drink selections were out of order with handwritten notes stuck to the dispensers. Our order was 2 pork ribs for me and tea to drink; a chopped sandwich and tea for my lunchtime companion... nearly $35 Never, ever again. By the way, the kitchen lady came out wearing a gray tee-shirt with a word across the front -- It said, "BULLS***!" I had to wholeheartedly agree. But that's about all they got right.
