    a food truck and a bbq truck

    Food: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Visited Deans Rib Shack this afternoon and it did not disappoint!! My boyfriend and I were staying at a nearby hotel while in town for the NCAA games and were craving some good texas barbecue. Deans Rib Shack delivered! We've tried a couple barbecue spots like Killens and The Pit Room, but Deans pork ribs and brisket were THE best!!! Falling off the bone. Also, I'm also usually not a potato salad person, but the flavor was impeccable. Chefs kiss! A must visit spot when in the Humble, TX area!!! Address here: 1918 Northpark Dr Kingwood Tx 77339.

    OK, be forewarned! The food is delicious and the servings are generous! Every month our club meets…read morefor lunch at a local restaurant, we started after Covid as a way to support the community and so many places that were struggling. Four years on and we still enjoy doing it. This month was back to an old favorite, Fire Craft BBQ. Owner and head pit master, David Welch puts his heart and soul into the products his restaurant turns out. Not only that, there is a lot of variety and specialty dishes on the menu that most other BBQ places don't serve. We had 14 in our group and were able to pull together some tables and chairs in the large additional dining room they added not long after opening. The room is clean and well lit, big ceiling fans keep the air moving. Our group ordered a variety of things; I had the brisket hamburger with a side of the very southern yellow squash casserole. My wife had the chopped beef sandwich with fries and another friend had the chicken plate with beans and coleslaw. Others had their tocos and other sandwiches, one had the ribs. We were all full and happy when we finished. What 's nice is David came by to check on us and make sure everyone was happy, not many owners take that kind of personal attention.

The employees were helpful on answering my questions and I ended up ordering a brisket sandwich with mustard potato salad. In the dining area there was BBQ sauce which had a great flavor. The meal came out quickly and was what PERFECT smoked brisket should taste like. I was in Heaven! Often when you ask for lean you get a dry meat and this was not only very lean but also not dry whatsoever. It was nice and tender. The smoke flavor was perfect as well. I ate some plain and some with the BBQ sauce on it and honestly it was great both ways. Service was also great. An employee came by regularly to make sure we did not need anything and then a man who I'm pretty sure is the owner came by as well to make sure we were happy with our meal... which we were. I will be back in Houston in February and I know exactly where I will be eating when I get off that plane! Thanks for an amazing dinner.

    I swung by late in the day hopeful that they had not run out of brisket. It was just before…read moreclosing, but they had a little left. I ordered a 3 meat platter with fatty brisket, pork rib, and sausage with candied baked beans and jalapeno truffle mac-n-cheese. The brisket melted in my mouth. Delicious and juicy. The sausage was perfect, sliced into chunks. The rib was spicy, meaty and delicious, with a crust of dry rub on top. The candied baked beans should have been listed as a dessert ... LOL ... they were smoky and sweet. They were more a solid tower of beans with less liquid... interesting and unexpected. And of course, the mac and cheese rounded out the meal perfectly. The only thing that was missing was a frosty beer. They are not licensed to sell alcohol, but they allow you to BYOB. The food truck is adjacent to a large picnic area under a tiki thatched gazebo. It's outdoor seating. Needless to say, it's hot and humid. If you plan to eat there, time your visit well. There have games and live music on occasion in the evenings.

I decided to get their 2 meat plate (Pork ribs, Brisket) which comes with 2 sides (Truffle Mac & Cheese, Baked squash). I'll start with the ribs, nicely seasoned with a hint of sweetness, very tendered as well. I also enjoyed the dry rub to top the ribs. The brisket was fantastic, I could eat it all day. The mac & cheese was good I just wish it was more creamier because it was slightly dry. However, I enjoyed the jalapeños that was added to give it a kick. I didn't expect to enjoy my baked squash, but I did. I tried their BBQ sauce by itself & it was textbook. Overall, great BBQ & service from the cashier. I was able to speak with the Owner Sloan who does the smoking, such a cool individual. You definitely have my support. I'll come back to try their turkey & sausages next time.
