    Brisket, sausage, pork belly burnt ends, bacon wrapped stuffed jalapeño, mac & cheese, street corn, and bread.

    My son and I have a tradition of checking out various BBQ joints. We'be been to several of the Texas Monthly top 50 places. We were looking for something local and found out about Drew's. The reviews were good, so we decided to check it out. It took us about an hour to get there. A little out of the way, but not too bad. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by one of the owners (Drew), who introduced himself to us. We ordered the 3 meat plate and added one extra side. So we ended up with brisket, pork belly burnt ends, habanero cheese sausage, mac and cheese, and street corn. We also added a stuffed bacon wrapped jalapeño. Everything we ordered was excellent. The brisket had the traditional central Texas (post oak, salt, pepper, and garlic - presumably) flavor profile. All of the meats had a good balance of meat flavor, seasoning, smokiness, and well rendered fat. We were not disappointed. The sides were also great. It's hard to say which one we liked better. This is a small detail, but it didn't go unnoticed. Most BBQ joints will give you a slice of traditional store bought white bread. The bread they gave us was different. I'm not sure if they made it themselves or if they bought it. But it was really good. It kind of reminded me of Goldee's bread. They even threw in a complimentary dessert, which was some kind of pecan cheesecake. Like everything else, it was excellent. For what we got, the pricing was very reasonable. The restaurant itself had a nice older look to it. They had a couple of TV's on, but it was quiet enough that we were able to carry on a conversation. With as many LOUD restaurants as we've been to, the quieter environment was really nice. It was a great experience. Considering the remoteness of their location, I hope they do well. I'll definitely be going back to Drew's in the near future!

    Not our first rodeo to Drew's BBQ. A bit out of the way for our lunch but was craving some good bbq which seems to be harder and harder to find. My wife and my office manager both ordered the stuffed potato. They enjoyed it. I had the two meat plate which came with three ribs and Fatty brisket. My two choices of meat. The ribs were baby back as I was told they are normally spare ribs but they didn't have any spare ribs today. None the less the ribs were tender, moist and very flavorful. Did not need any sauce. The brisket was moist and tender with a mouth full of flavor as well. Needed no sauce. But, the sauce on the table was an extremely thin almost watery sauce that had bland flavor to it and a slightly thicker and sweeter sauce that was acceptable. I would give 5 stars to the BBQ but the potato salad which consisted of large chunks of red potatoes and yellow mustard with absolutely nothing else gets a 1 star at best. I will have to point out as well that I asked not to be served the end pieces of the ribs as end pieces are always dry. They obliged but what was strange is I was served two slices of bread, both in which were the butts of the loaf. Go figure. Was this a joke or what? Would I come back? Probably but after $63 lunch bill It may be a while. 3 total stars: Price too high for two potatoes and a two meat plate. Terrible potato salad. The butt of the bread.

    Food is AMAZING. We are BBQ snobs and this is the best bang for your buck for sure. Incredible meats, the beans and corn is so tasty. Been here like 5 times and it was delish every time! Locally owned and highly recommend.

    Cheeseburger and fries
    Robin H.

    Tonight I had a cheeseburger and fries! I can honestly say this is the best cheeseburger I have ever had! The french fries were seasoned absolutely perfect no ketchup or ranch needed as usual with others!

    We just moved to maypearl and stopped by for lunch, this place was an easy 10/10. The food and the hospitality was unmatched. We got to meet the owner Drew and he's so kind and welcoming, he even threw in a few things for us to try. Worth the drive if you don't live close and if you do, hurry up and come on!

    Brisket grilled cheese

    Y'all, do not sleep on this place. Service great. Just had the brisket grilled cheese, and it was epic. Brought home brisket and baked beans for later. Please support this local business.

    If you want some GREAT BBQ, come try this quaint place. Great folks, Great food and AWESOME BBQ sauce!!! And we loved visiting with Wes!

    Ribs, burnt ends, mac and cheese.

    First visit to Hurtado's in Mansfield, and I came away impressed…read more Parking is a little limited since the lot is shared with a few other businesses. I could see it being an issue during the early hours of opening on the weekends, but probably not as much in the evenings. Inside, it has a cozy, almost dive-bar feel, just not dark. LOL. There's a small bar tucked into the back corner, several four-person tables, and a couple of wooden booths along one wall. When you walk in, you order at the counter window. They give you a number for the table, you grab a seat, and they bring the food out to you. The staff was friendly and polite, checking on us here and there without hovering. I went with the Texas Trinity Platter: brisket, pork ribs, garlic & pepper sausage, and Mexican street corn for my side. I also ordered a Brisket Tostada. The brisket had a nice smoke ring, decent bark, and that Central Texas, Mex-Tex seasoning profile. What I enjoyed most was the seasoning wasn't too salty or laid on too thick. It added flavor without masking the beef. The pork ribs were moist and close to fall off the bone, but still held together enough to get a good bite. There was plenty of smoke, and again, the seasoning complemented the pork instead of overpowering it. For the sausage, I chose the garlic & pepper. It had a good snap, was juicy inside, and had a light garlic flavor with a little pepper coming through. The texture was a medium grind with a good balance of lean meat and fat. But the surprise for me was the Brisket Tostada. The tostada was crisp and thick enough to support everything piled on top. There's a thin layer of refried beans, thick slices of brisket, a little salsa verde, cotija cheese, and a drizzle of Valentina's. And yes, you can actually pick the thing up and eat it without it falling apart or turning soggy. I'll admit I was eating it a little faster than usual--not because I was worried about it falling apart, but because it was that good. LOL. The salsa verde helped cut through the richness of the brisket and beans, while the Valentina's added a little extra kick without taking over. The Mexican street corn was also well seasoned without being heavy-handed and worked well with all the meats. For a first visit, Hurtado's checked a lot of boxes for me. Awesome barbecue, friendly service, and that Brisket Tostada alone gives me a reason to come back. Since it's not too far from the house, I can see this becoming one of my regular BBQ spots.

    Maaaan we finally tried this place and we were not disappointed! We came here after a day in the…read moresun and were starving so we got the El Jefe to feed our family of 3 with a few additional sides. With the El Jefe platter we got to try ribs, brisket, smoked turkey, burnt ends, pulled pork and a sausage link with two sides (Mac and cheese and baked beans). We ordered a birria taco, small cup of cornbread and elote corn for good measure. The meat was all great, the ribs were tender and falling off the bone, the turkey had a great smoked flavor and was tender as well. The brisket had a good seasoning and the sausage was also delicious. The real star of the show for me was the sides. Their baked beans are like a Mexican -bbq fusion which I've never had before and LOVED. Seriously, a bit of cilantro and seasonings made for a great flavor profile. My husband was swearing by the corn and how tasty it was and my son really enjoyed the Mac and cheese. While we loved 90% of this meal the only thing I would probably not order again was the cornbread - it was pretty dry even with the honey/syrup. It crumbled everywhere and the Birria taco was good, but just missing a bit of spice and hot sauce for me. There was a line of about 10 people ahead of us when we arrived and we probably waited about 30 minutes to actually leave with our food in hand. It felt like it went by quickly. Inside was packed with people eating but they had a nice little bar area towards the back and multiple TVs showing sporting events and things. The walk ways got a little cramped while waiting, but it wasn't terrible. All in all, we spent about $70 bucks to eat here and it was definitely worth it and we'll be back.

    My wife and I came to Massey's BBQ for the first time while we were visiting Glen Rose for a…read moreweekend getaway. This restaurant has wonderful space--they have indoor seating and then a separate, HUGE pavilion. We opted for the pavilion because it is dog-friendly. It was perfect--multiple TVs, long bench-style tables for parties of all sizes, a stage for live music, a small bar area, and outside of it, pickleball courts! To eat, I ordered some "Mozzarella Cheese sticks," a "Brisket Sandwich," and a side of "Mac and Cheese." The cheese sticks came out fresh with cheese melted and dangling with every bite as it should. The brisket in the sandwich was moist and tender and the Mac and cheese was also very flavorful and delicious. I topped it off with some sweet tea. The cherry on top for us was the wonderful customer service--a manager/owner came out and spoke with us, asked where we were from and thanked us for coming by. Great hospitality. We had an amazing experience here and would recommend Massey's to anyone!! Can't wait to come back whenever we're in town.

    Live music and BBQ, does it get any better? My wife and I were in Glen Rose for a weekend getaway…read more The hotel we stayed in recommended Massey's and had their live music schedule posted in the lobby. We love live music. We really enjoy good BBQ. We were not disappointed! Massey's is located on the highway between Glen Rose and Granbury, adjacent to the golf course. The building is decorated with pages that kids colored. There's an arcade. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. The live music takes place in the outdoor seating area. I ordered the Massey Mess with pulled pork. It's a frito pie with delicious BBQ. The serving is massive. My wife had the loaded baked potato with brisket. She couldn't finish hers either. Both dishes were delicious. The meat was tender and full of flavor. All the ingredients were fresh. The service just couldn't be beat, beginning with the owner. Todd Massey himself greeted us as we came in and gave us a warm welcome. He answered all our questions about the menu. How often does THAT happen? The serving staff is sweet, friendly, and attentive. We never had to wait. They brought our food to us and checked on us often. Free refills on drinks. The music venue is very family friendly and roomy. There are fans on the perimeter and ceiling fans to keep everyone comfortable. The lighting was great and the sound of the band was too. There are ample clean bathtrooms. We sat there on a Saturday evening eating delicous BBQ and listening to good music. There were kids playing in the grassy area behind the pavillion. Couples got up and danced to their favorite songs. There was a nice breeze blowing. In the distance you can see the golf course. Folks, it just doesn't get much better than this. Mr. Massey even made sure we had a good time and thanked us for coming as we left.
