    I always recommend Clem's to my out-of-town consultants and they ALWAYS rave about the BBQ .... Especially the ribs and brisket

    10000000/10. I came here back in late 2025 (Christmas time) and was so sorry to hear what happened…read morejust a few months later. Because this place has the BEST bbq I've had in a while. All of the staff was friendly and service was pretty quick! The sides were incredible as well as the meats.

    Milller's Smokehouse serves up some killer smash burgers!…read more My family enjoys hunting for great Texas BBQ. We have completed the 2017 and 2021 TX Monthly Top 50 BBQ list. We started the 2025 list and we are more than half-way through the list as of June 2026. Heading to the spots in West Texas takes some logistical planning, patience, and lots of gas for the drive from the Texas Gulf Coast. On our recent BBQ quest to West Texas,we drove home via Fort Worth from Amarillo with our eyes set on hitting one of the most consistent BBQ joints in Central Texas, Miller's Smokehouse in Belton, TX. This was our fourth time to visit Miller's. Unfortunately, Miller's Smokehouse had a surprise overnight fire late February 2026. That hasn't stopped them from feeding the community great food from a mobile trailer. They had an abbreviated menu of the BBQ staples like brisket, chicken, pulled pork, pork steaks, and St. Louis Style Ribs, and assorted sandwiches and sides. Generally, I'm a Texas Trinity traditionalist. But we he had our fill of brisket, ribs, and sausage on our West Texas journey. Instead, we jumped at the Smash Burgers! First time for us and they made a favorable impression. My wife had the Single Smash. My son and I had the Double Smash. Of course we had to try the tallow Fries. Wow! Homemade buns, oversized patties, cheese, with a smattering of pickles and burger sauce. We destroyed those burgers. Compliments to the kitchen staff cooking up some great food. The tallow Fries, seasoned with just the right amount of salt were a perfect crisp while being soft in the center. Don't cheat yourself - try the Fries. We arrived around noon and there was a very short line at that time. Parking is easy with ample parallel parking and free lots close by. The staff took good care of us. It was a bit warm but they had shaded picnic table seating with plenty of fly fans at the table to keep the critters from buzzing to nibble at your food. Before we left, we inquired about nearby restrooms to wash-up before we got back on the road. We were directed across the street to Muscovy Coffee Roasters across the street. It turns out that Muscovy is Miller's upscale sister coffee house that opened days before the February fire. I could not help but notice the spacious seating area that was packed. Nor the rich roasted coffee wafting through the air. They also serve an interesting menu of breakfast items and homemade Kolaches. Got to go back for coffee and Kolaches next time. By the way, the restrooms were Buc-ee's clean+. This is the fourth time we visited Miller's Smokehouse. Hat's off to the pitmasters and staff at Miller's Smokehouse for their perseverance. We'll be back after they open the revitalized restaurant. Hoping to meet Dusty the next time.

    The first time I came to Schoepf's was when I was young, so it was really nice revisiting this…read moreplace for their great BBQ! They recently placed as the #1 BBQ spot in Texas for 2026, so of course I had to swing by. We came around 1 or 2 pm on a Saturday, and there was barely any wait to order our food. I got the beef rib, the brisket, the poblano jack sausage, potato salad, and the mac and cheese. By far, the beef rib was PHENOMENAL! Juicy, melty fatty, and easily able to tear off pieces with just a plastic fork alone. This was perfection. The brisket, I wish that I had specified that we wanted moist fatty, as I think that we were just given the leaner cut of the meat, but regardless still good! Poblano jack sausage was cheesy and tasty as well! After you order your meat, you order your sides, and I really liked the potato salad and mac. Both were great! Onions, pickles, and bread were all complimentary, and you could get as much as you wanted. I also greatly preferred the spicy bbq sauce than their normal. The interior of the restaruant is homey and country-style. Also loved their selection of sweet teas and sodas! Glad that this place is so close to home!

    Schoepf's is a barbecue joint with Tex-Mex fusion. We got the sausage sandwich, brisket birria…read moretaco, and medium Mexican street corn to share between two people. The standout was the sausage sandwich. We opted for a spicy sausage, and it was delicious. The brisket birria taco was tasty, although it was about $11 just for one taco, which we did not expect. We thought it would come with more. I read good things about the Mexican street corn, but it was too creamy and had a burnt taste. The first few bites were good, but it then became cumbersome for two people to finish. The medium container was huge. I spent two days eating the leftovers and ended up throwing it away because I couldn't stomach it anymore. We also wanted mac and cheese as a side, but they were almost out, and it looked really liquidy.

The taste of this meat concoction makes Ronald McDonald, Wendy & The King shrink back into a hole so deep you'll ask, what's that? Dare I say it? .... even Whataburger will bow down to this one. This isn't an average patty. This is absolute max on taste, texture, & thoughtful composition. Nothing over the top or overdone. Simple & really, just masterfully put together & toting that perfect smoked flavor. That nice bun holds it all stacked without slipping for the just-right & complete bite. Combos are simple with chips & canned soda. Plenty of room to sit inside the cool A/C out of the wind & heat. That's all you need really because this burger is THE SHOW the tongue & your hunger is dying to get. This ain't fast food & you're going to tell everyone you know, guaranteed. GO get you one, FRIDAYS only at the moment. But one day Pustka Family, this is going to be your daily banger!! I know they put out the 'cue but everyone around me that got something other than this burger was honestly jealous. That sausage y'all ..... there's a reason this joint made the honorable mention Top Texas 100 BBQ (the top 50 is coveted) & this is it. The flavor & oozy cheese just pops outta that juicy, snappy skin eliciting spicy goodness like nothing else ever could. Doesn't even NEED sauce. Just by itself can render your palate wild. I KID YOU NOT. Don't miss that one & it serves as a perfect side to the burger I had. Absolutely, fast, friendly & kind service by gentleman who essentially could be your favorite neighbor. They're definitely pushing out Temple's finest BBQ. I mean I just can't think of anyone else.... wait, sorry Best Quality, they got you beat for now. Even if there were 15 other joints in town, they AIN'T beating this meal right here. Just get here already Friday & get there before they sell out. You can't drool forever. Get satisfied 'Dustin' the bottom of your plate & you'll be dreaming about this one a long time, 'Mark' my words!! Update: Sadly, Yelp can't keep the pictures loaded properly for prior & current review, they lost them and my captions. So I had to add them again all in this one. Dunno!??
