The staff is consistently welcoming, and Andrea deserves a special mention -- she's always helpful, upbeat, and brings such a positive energy to the place.

Although they were out of Mac and cheese which is the main reason I came here (The Trinity Sandwich). They were also out of water at both soda machines. They were also out of hand sanitizer. The BBQ was really good, the brisket, pulled pork, and sausage were all really good. The mashed potatoes were very bland and not very creamy. The waffles fries were amazing. The Elote did not have a lot of flavor and was mainly just the cream flavor. Overall the people working were really nice and the main food was good.

This was my third visit to this BBQ joint we discovered earlier in 2025. I've eaten their brisket…read morepreviously and it is outstanding. It's the best I've eaten here in the RGV and coming in a close second to City Market in Luling, TX. It's that good! This visit I decided to try their Three Brisket Combo meal. It comes with three brisket tacos (corn or flour tortillas) loaded with brisket, a couple grilled jalapeño slices, grilled onions and some cilantro. They didn't need salsa but a squeeze of lime might've been helpful. The side I chose was their house made coleslaw which was pretty tasty. I ordered their green beans with onion and bacon but a few minutes after ordering a fellow came out to tell me they were out of the beans so I settled for the slaw. I also ordered an order of their house cut, tallow fried french fries. Man, were they GOOD! As in THE BEST FRIES I'VE EVER EATEN IN MY LIFE GOOD!!! They are worth the visit all by themselves. The combo meal comes with a bottomless drink as well. The wife and I split the Combo meal, added the fries and a small side of potato salad that she wanted. We each ate one taco and about half of the sides. So we had a leftover taco, some fries and half our sides for the next day. All for like $21. The combo meal is $13.99 which is a pretty good deal in itself. The fries were like $6 and well worth the price. We will definitely be back. I would also highly recommend their 50/50 Rice and Beans topped with Brisket Bowl. That provided two meals for me when I ordered it previously. You can't go wrong at this little joint.

After a very challenging travel trip to this area, the discovery of 492 BBQ around the corner from…read moremy hotel was a gift. The pulled pork BBQ was exactly on point with its smoke flavor and being tender. The sausage links had snap and just enough smoke. The brisket was tender and full of flavor to just what I wanted. Even the beans were spot on for a very tired and hungry BBQ fan. I look forward to returning to the area for work and are moving 492 BBQ to the top of my places to be sure to return to.

I was in Edinburgh Tx. Decided to stop by this place instead of Rudy's BBQ…read more The server was friendly and knew the menu well. I ordered the 3 taco combo with corn Tortillas. One was brisket, pulled pork and regular sausage with a side of beans. I loved the smoke flavor of the pulled pork and all the meats were moist and juicy. The beans could use more flavor. It was supposed to be to be charro beans but was missing ingredients that could be the reason it was bland. Also ordered the strawberry lemonade and it was delicious. It is served in a large mason jar. Ambience is casual and yes it is a bit chilled inside but with this Texas heat it is understandable. I will not complain about that. Frankly I would prefer this place over Rudy's BBQ. Give a try and tell me what you think.

Good sized place inside and you order from the friendly staff at the counter and I got brisket slices, which is strange for me, since I usually get pulled pork, but I was on vacation. I got Mac and Cheese for my side. Food was ready pretty quick and all delicious. The mac and cheese was buttery and cheesy and al dente and the brisket was melt in your mouth. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Good stuff. The ambience was your basic Texas BBQ place, all good. Give Smoke a shot!

Saw all the cars lined up and decided we needed to line up too! It's clean and comfortable. The staff were all very welcoming and helped us through the menu.

If its as good as it looks, and as amazing as the main course, we are probably going to be in a food coma by the time we finish it all. Definitely recommend. Be ready for a little spice (or a lot)!

Definitely tops a lot of other barbecue spots in Texas that also come with 2-3hr waiting times so having this in my hometown is awesome.
