    A little bit under the radar because of its location. And that is unfair. Because I would put Flossie's ribs, sausage and brisket in any Top 5 HOUSTON RECOMMENDATIONS LIST. I really love this place. Michael is such a gentleman. Michael said : " Flossie's BBQ is inspired by Ms. Flossie, my grandmother. Ms. Flossie was a self-taught chef and entrepreneur." Dine here as soon as you can. It is really that good. Previous notes: " Well, the high point of my day was a visit to this barbecue place on the east side of Houston off of I 10 and the Sam Houston Parkway. I had read about it in the Houston Chronicle and some business on that side of town gave me the opportunity to check it out today. I met the pitmaster Michael and was truly impressed by the ribs and the brisket and the sausage and the potato salad. It kind of brought back memories of when I first had barbecue at Thelma's, back in the day. When I was first visiting there, she hadn't quite been discovered yet We became friends, and I would bake a loaf of bread for her, and when I would come in the door, she was look up at me, smile and say "you got my bread?" The barbecue and meeting Michael today left me with a big smile on my face and all I can say is, if you're heading east on I 10 you should really consider a stop here along your. Or make a special trip (check the hours of operation ). Thinking about it, currently, I think it is probably my favorite barbecue in the city.

    Food was amazing , service great, food with large portions how I like it . Clean environment

    Three-meat platter with potato salad and dirty rice.

    Great work by Flossie's BBQ. I've been to more than a few barbecue places, and this place by far outperformed everyone else, in my humble opinion. I ordered the three-meat platter with potato salad and dirty rice: brisket, sausage, and ribs. The owner even threw in a piece of chicken as a freebie! All the protein was tender and well-made; it didn't even need barbecue sauce. The taste and moisture of the meat were enough. The potato salad and dirty rice were unique in their own way but very good as well.

    3 meat loaded baked potatoe

    Awesome family owned business. Please, eat here!! We came here for my husband's birthday and it did not disappoint. The chicken, ribs, and sausage was so tender, thick, and juicy. It is worth the drive.

    A massively fantastic meal!

    I have to say I really enjoy finding places like this. After a rough day, this was exactly what I needed. Comfort food all the way. A crazy amount of delicious food kindly provided for a great price. Would highly recommend and looking forward to going back! Which was my favorite? OMG that's a tough one....

    People reviews don't lie!!! HUGE portion size. Ribs falls out of the bone, tender and juicy. The brisket was moist. The brisket dirty rice was super tasty and has lots of meat. Definitely put this place to our GPS next time we're in town. The owner even gave us chocolate cupcakes as they are closing at 5:30pm as they already ran out.

    2 meat combo, Ribs and Brisket, with double Beans.
    Lance P.

    I opted for the 2 meat combo, Brisket and Ribs. Nice Smokey bark on the ribs, Brisket was cooked perfect. Firm with an easy pull, and juicy. The sauce was perfectly balanced, with the perfect amount of vinegar. I did the double beans, they are tasty and filling. Will definitely be back on the weekends.

    Proof of purchase.

My wife and I had had a great experience at the Pit Room previously, so brought the rest of my family here to experience. I found the food to continue to be really good, especially the fatty brisket. Stopped by around 11 am, and there was still parking in the dedicated surface lot next to the building. The smell of bbq wasn't as prevalent as last time. Once walking in, you stand in line to first order your meat...which is immediately sliced in front of you. You then move further along to ask for your sides, including as many slices of plain white bread as you want. My daughter treated us this time, so didn't record prices, but thought it was reasonable. I liked the sliced brisket a lot, along with the side of elote corn and mac n cheese. The free toppings bar had the various pickled vegetables that really cut through the fattiness of the meat. Drinks were all self serve, with a water station and soda fountain. Probably ordered a bit less than expected for 4 people, but was happy that there were no left overs, and left not completely stuffed, since we had a long day ahead of us. By the time we left a little after noon, there was both a wait for tables and parking. We had come at the right time.

Got the one meat lunch platter which came with two sides. I chose the brisket, mac n cheese, and cole slaw. The meat was so tender and juicy, and the bbq sauce was one of the best I've had. The sides were just ok, and I wouldn't recommend the mac n cheese (too meh). I liked the pickle station they had. Counter service with tables both inside and outside. All the employees were quick but friendly.

Let me tell you, it did not disappoint! The pork ribs were the star of the show. So tender, fall off the bone deliciousness. Pair it with the hot sauce that they have on the side and it was chefs kiss! The best ribs I've ever had. The brisket on the other hand was a little dry and I wish it had more flavor, but the sauce made up for it. We also got the Mac n cheese with brisket on top. They really did not skimp out on the brisket. It was very delicious and the Mac n cheese was perfectly creamy and decadent. They also pickles, pickled jalapeño, and onions on the side which really cut the fat from the meat. The coleslaw that we got was okay though. Overall, it was a great experience. All the employees were nice and patient with us since it was our first time here and we had some questions. The vibes were definitely there. Will def stop by here if we ever go to Texas again!!

I'm a boudin lover at heart so that's a no brained for me. The smoky boudin link ($8) was cooked to perfection, you know the ones you can eat and the casing snaps with crispness as you bite into it. Rice still has its moist and perfect texture as well. Kam ordered the extra lean brisket sandwich ($15) that's served on jalapeño biscuit buns which he seemed to really enjoy We order side to share, just try. Bacon Mac& cheese. ($6, large) Which is really creamy and cheesy. The noodles were perfectly cooked. The only flaw was the bacon fat I bit into which was a large pieces (yuck) someone who's a texture girl I would be skeptical to order it again. Is perfect alone/ without the bacon. The potato salad ($4 small) was a good cool balance. The jambalaya wasn't much of what I expected, rice a tad overcooked for my liking. I'd prefer either the Mac n cheese or potato salad. We usually don't eat pork ribs, but the appearance was too beautiful not to try. I was happy to hear that Pinkerton do sell them by singles for guest who just want to try them for taste, like us. They were fall off the bone great. No military discount offered at this time. This is the original location The line is for dine in, and take out. I do look forward to returning for the brisket sandwich and boudin link.

We came a little earlier and there was already a long line. I heard that if you order in advance, you can skip the line. While you wait, the employees walk around and you can order a drink. Which is nice if you're waiting a while and it gets hot. The employees were all very nice and ambiance is how you would expect a regular bbq restaurant to be. There are plenty of seating outside but limited inside. The seats are all first come first serve, so usually the inside seating runs out first. We ordered 1/2lb ribs, 1/2lb brisket, 1/2lb sausages, and some sides like Mac&cheese, beans, loaded potato, cobbler, etc. total was about $120 after tip. The food was very delicious and worth the drive. Although, I will say that it doesn't taste that much different from my other favorite bbq restaurants.

I've tried those deemed "the best," including Salt Lick in Driftwood and Killen's. So how did CorkScrew measure up? In addition to the beef rib, we tried the moist brisket, pulled pork, and sausage. We also tried several sides, including those recommended in the Michelin review: potato salad, mac and cheese, smokey beans, and coleslaw, and I picked up a peach cobbler, as well. The beef rib: STELLAR. This was outstanding with its flavorful bark and an impossibly tender texture that truly melts in your mouth, unlike any other beef rib I've ever had. Easily the very best beef rib, without a doubt. The brisket was delicious, as well: tender and flavorful. The sausage was nothing special... on par with sausage elsewhere, as was the pork. As for the sides, I've never been a fan of beans, but since the Michelin review specifically mentioned them, I gave them a try. I'm a fan! I would definitely order these again. Their smokiness is gently tamed by a touch of sweetness. The rest? Very average. The mac and cheese tasted like the stuff I had in my elementary school cafeteria - very un-special. The potato salad was salty and was missing any semblance of potato chunks. The texture was oddly like lumpy mashed potatoes. But the other surprise for me: the cobbler. This was simply and divinely perfect with crisp, sweet buttery crumble. A wonderful way to end a hearty meal. I'm so glad I ordered our food online for pickup. When I arrived at 1pm, the line was wrapped around the building. Pickup was very easy: I texted them when I arrived, and they replied when they were ready for me to go in and retrieve it. But even if there wasn't a line, I would never eat there: the restaurant is too divey for me: very rustic, picnic-like feel both inside and out, and it was uncomfortably warm and humid (again, inside and out.) The staff was very friendly and cheerful. Glad i tried it, and when i get a hankering for a good beef rib, this is definitely where I'll be getting it!
