Not only did they cook more food but they also delivered!!!! Daddy J has a sweet humble soul and exuded gratefulness for our patronage. I will be a consistent customer and will refer every chance I get. BBQ SPOT FOUND!!!

Hello my fellow foodies…read more I'm about to relax after devouring this deliciousness from Daddy J's BBQ! We ordered the 3 meat special for $14, the sides (Big beans and coleslaw) were extra; making the grand total $19. RIBS (5/5): The ribs were so tender and seasoned to perfection. I've ordered ribs from several local barbecue joints and some were either dry or was too much smoky flavor for me. I'm kicking myself in the rear end for not ordering more. Daddy J's ribs were juicy with just enough of season and smoky flavor. BAKED BEANS (5/5): Beans were tangy and sweet; very flavorful SAUSAGE (5/5): Sausage was hot and fresh but flavor was nothing really to rave about. It tasted like normal kielbasa sausage. BRISKET (4/5): While I'm not a huge brisket fan, I have to admit, it tasted pretty good. I personally feel like brisket should be injected with the same seasoning that's used on the outside. But, I understand most BBQ joints use the traditional way and I'm sure many may enjoy it just as it is. My husband ate more of it than I did and enjoyed it just as much as he did the ribs. COLESLAW (4/5): Coleslaw was cold and fresh. Although, I would have added a little more creamy slaw dressing. Rolls tasted as if they were Hawaiian rolls but that works too To me, it seems as if the ribs are the heavy hitting here! I would definitely visit again, order just ribs and sides.

All my brother wanted for his birthday last weekend was for us to join him and some friends at…read moreBurnt Bean Co. He's always on a mission to try as many of Texas Monthly's Top 50 BBQ Joints as he can. We were in San Antonio for the weekend to celebrate our grandfather's birthday, but Seguin isn't too far away (45 minutes on a good day or an hour and 20 minutes on a day when they've closed down I-10 and made a mess of a traffic; the latter was our experience). Friends of his drove from different places to meet us and we met them in line. Texas Monthly hasn't released the 2026 list yet, but Burnt Bean Co. was number 1 on the list in 2025. NUMBER 1! So, yes, there will be a line. The first of our group arrived around 9 in the morning for an 11 am opening. There's a bit of cover where the line wraps from the front door, but we were definitely baking. People brought chairs, umbrellas, handheld fans, cold waters, and more to stay cool. It was still sooooo hot. People who arrived around 9 got in right at 11 and had BBQ in front of them by 11:10. People who got there around 10 got in maybe a half hour later. People who got there later had to wait closer to an hour and got in around 12. (I noticed this, because people in our group weren't all standing together in line.) Once inside, the restaurant is really nice: high ceilings, great AC, tons of tables, and an outside area, too (if you prefer to continue to sweat as you eat your BBQ). The service was incredibly friendly, too. Staff came by and asked however everything was, took empty plates/platters to help us make room, and were very friendly when we were ordering. Almost everything we ate was exceptional. Their menu is huge, with tons of specials that change constantly. Between our group of 9 people, we tried most of the menu. The highlights for me were the beef cheek pastrami, the steakhouse bacon, the Moroccan spiced lamb ribs, and the turkey. I didn't have room to try the brisket, chicken, sausage, and many other things, because I had been eating too long by the time the folks with those meats got to our table! The sides were also very good. I tried the cheesy squash, the green beans, and the queso mac and cheese with hot cheetos - all good. On Saturdays, they offer several specials: the steakhouse bacon, the bourbon peach cobbler taco, and 2 free beers per person - as if they didn't have enough treats on the menu for a great time. Their location is Seguin is great - just off Central Park and Court Street. The service was fantastic. The vibes are great. The food was definitely topnotch. Even the line feels like a fun community experience - with people chatting and having a great time. There's nothing not to like about Burnt Bean Co. We all enjoyed my brother's birthday treat! I'm glad he insisted!

I ended up doing a pick up order to avoid the line since we were just passing through. Would…read morerecommend since the line seemed crazy. There is a 4 lb minimum and a 10 dollar pick up fee. You cannot try a wide variety of their dishes but it was enough for me. I had pick up at 10:30 and you just go to the back a bit of a wait like 10-15 minutes since they cut the meat to order. I got the brisket (2 lbs), pork ribs (2 lbs) , jalapeño sausage (1lb), and quart sizes of the corn pudding, tater tot dish, and hot cheeto mac and cheese. The stars were definitely the pork rib (super flavorful and tender), the brisket was fall apart tender, and the jalapeno sausage had a beautiful snap and is properly spicy. I was a bit disappointed with the sides. My favorite was probably the corn pudding but I still prefer a nice roasted corn OR a corn bread but this was a very unique combo of the two. The mac was okay and same with the tater tot side (honestly the potatoes were quite salty). The sauce isn't my favorite since I personally prefer a spicier sauce. The bread they have is very nice and the people are friendly. It's also quite smoky inside.

Ok, Texas BBQ. Well, it is really hard to review when there are a lot of really good places. First,…read morelet me tell you what day and time we visited. Thursday around 12:40 pm. Looking for a lunch spot and this was our 2nd option since our 1st option was already sold out. Service was prompt. There was maybe one person ahead of us. The dining area was spacious and there was plenty of seating inside. They had a patio area, too. There were about 15 other patrons besides us. Schulze seems to be a staple around Seguin and had a sweet history of its origin posted near the restroom. Ok, I know you want to know about the meat. We ordered brisket lean, turkey, and a rib. The seasoning was a bit too peppery for my liking. The brisket was a tad dry but the company I was with liked lean. I would have ordered a mixed one if by myself. The rib was big and meaty and had a nice balance of pepper and sweetness. I like my ribs slightly sweet. The sides we ordered were the chimichurri cucumbers (sounded interesting), potato salad, and beans. When I visit a place for the 1st time, I like to try the staples (beans and potato salad/not quite there yet to eating coleslaw). The sides were ok. I would return. There were some other interesting options like brisket tostada and maybe by then I'd be willing to try their coleslaw.

All in all nothing wrong with food or service except felt rush but then again it is lunch hr. What…read morekilled me the most is the environment/ambience. I went in today with my three-year-old son during lunch hour on a weekday and it just felt like the elder crowd was like "what are they doing here?" As I walked in. Now Maybe I'm a little guarded I mean, I'm a single full-time Dad prior military, so I'm protective and observant. Plus, some guy in a big ol truck of course ( mind you I have a truck) decided that he wanted to almost hit my son and I as we' attempted to walking across the parking lot. I digress, but it was to the extent that I didn't even want to sit inside, so we sat on the patio. Which reminds me 91° outside and the patio well well ventilated, w/ breeze and felt good. All in all just an iffy experience. Food was good not great turkey was dry but the baked potato salad will have me back through the drive-thru through.

If you're looking for great BBQ near Randolph, Purple Pig BBQ in Schertz is definitely worth a…read morevisit. The restaurant has a fun, laid-back atmosphere with purple accents and purple pig décor throughout, giving it a unique personality. They also play throwback old-school music, which adds to the cool vibe. One thing that really stands out is the owners. They're incredibly friendly, welcoming, and happy to offer recommendations if you're having trouble deciding what to order. They also offer a military discount, which is always appreciated. I ordered the Texas-sized loaded baked potato topped with brisket, cheese, green onions, and their sweet BBQ sauce. It was absolutely delicious and loaded with flavor. My husband always goes for the brisket plate with a side of mac and cheese, and it's his favorite meal every time we visit. I also tried the cream corn, which was different from any I've had before. It had a peppery kick that gave it a unique flavor. To drink, we shared their homemade grape lemonade. While it wasn't very lemonade-forward, it instantly reminded us of those grape Pixy Stix from back in the day, bringing back a fun dose of nostalgia. Great food, friendly owners, a welcoming atmosphere, and solid portions make Purple Pig BBQ a place we'll keep coming back to. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the Schertz area!

How can you relax and have a conversation with your friends or a date if you can't hear yourselves think? The service is nonexistent and that's fine because it's your basic fast food concept. Not a problem. However, the food is more industrial based than true Texas BBQ. My brisket was very dry. They slather a lot of BBQ sauce on top of your meat. Why? Because the meat is either old or dry or both. Mine was very dry. The beans were drenched in sugar. The Mac and Cheese lacked (cheese) taste. We love good BBQ. This is not good BBQ. Compare to the Burnt Bean in Sequin and you will understand. The burnt bean runs out of product leaving long lines for their food; it's real BBQ, fresh homemade food. You can taste it.

You basically choose your meat, hot sides, and cold sides instead of ordering a traditional plate. The staff was super friendly and even let my dog wait in line with me, which I appreciated. Parking wasn't an issue since there's street parking available. It's also family-friendly with plenty of outdoor seating. I ordered my food to go, so I didn't sit inside or get a chance to check wheelchair accessibility. As for the food, the brisket was hands down my favorite, followed by the jalapeño and the cobbler. The jambalaya was my least favorite because it was a little too salty for me. Overall, the food was phenomenal, and the service was even better. Just be prepared to wait, especially on a Sunday afternoon. I'd definitely come back for that brisket!

This is a typical Texas bbq starting with a cafeteria style line with a cutting and weight machine. It would be nice to have a third guy but it was a Sunday. The meats. Turkey was moist and tasty. The ribs were good though most bbq places don't serve the end of the ribs but this one does. They serve them either dry or sauced. We did sauce and the ribs are good. The jalapeno cheese sausage was great, not huge but a reasonable size. Sides were good. Jalapeño cheese rice is something I've never had and I loved it. Spicy cheese rice. The beans are with jalapenos also and spicy, just ok imo. Only concern was the cafeteria glass guard had dust on it. Should be cleaned. Overall would go back.

Expertly executed brisket, bold smoked turkey, juicy chicken with crispy skin, two kinds of sausage, ribs; you simply can't go wrong. The sides are what food dreams are made of. Sweet potato casserole, cheesy potatoes (think loaded potatoes au gratin), mac & cheese, flavorful beans, potato salad... your biggest problem is choosing what to eat! The people here are incredibly kind and helpful. From suggestions and sage guidance, to throwing a joke here and there to make you feel like you're just here for food at a friend's place. We were lucky enough to meet the pit master on our first visit. The humility on this lady was the stuff that most people aspire to. Imagine being one of a handful of female pitmasters in Texas (a state known to excel in this cuisine) and not having an ego about you. This lady is one in a billion, and she needs to be revered and adored. We always leave here with full hearts and full bellies, and we try to plan our next visit as soon as possible.

Outstanding BBQ! Drove through a small industrial area in…read moreSelma to get to this place, and it's connected to a Mexican food restaurant as well. Noticed upon entrance, a humongous outdoor space connected to both restaurants which included plenty of outdoor seating tables and a stage. It must get busy on the weekends and I assume there's entertainment. Friendly greeting upon entering and seat yourself. Lots of TVs with Chive and enjoyed the country music in the background. Excellent service! Our server was friendly and checked on us frequently. Complimentary tortilla chips with a special seasoning and queso were brought to the table . I liked the seasoning. There's also a small complimentary condiment and BBQ sauce bar- which included onions, pickles, jalapeños, regular and spicy BBQ sauce. Pickles were nice and appeared home made. I dipped my meats in combos of both sauces, I enjoyed them both. We all ordered the two meat combos $18 with your choice of two sides and served with Texas toast. I ordered the brisket and pulled pork. Both were excellent! The brisket had a nice tiny fatty edge and was seasoned and cooked perfectly. The pulled pork was deelish. Good portion size too. I enjoyed the beans, but the coleslaw not so much. The slaw was bland and had no flavor. Others at my table ordered the tater tots, which were highly seasoned and had a nice crunch. We were so full, had some leftovers for the next day. Great BBQ, great service!

Caveat: we came in during an air show weekend and the restaurant had several orders from the air…read moreshow but I have to rate them on our experience not on circumstances. We arrived just as they opened. There was no one to greet us for the first few minutes. Finally, someone came out from the back to let us know that they were busy, which sounded strange since they had just opened, but when they explained about the air show it made sense. The music is loud but that's expected. It is a bar after all...that serves barbecue. We ordered at the bar and sat down. BWE and I shared the Chuckwagon Classic Plate, and we added 1/3 lb of brisket. My son had the same Classic Plate. We got the beans and fries as our sides. When our food was brought to us, the server didn't give us utensils. We had to ask her for them. The portions seemed small. The brisket was not hot. It was room temperature. The fries and beans were just okay. We were underwhelmed. This is Texas. Our expectations were high but we were disappointed. It could be that the order from the air show overwhelmed them and left them little strength to give attention to our order so I'll give them a little grace and give them two stars instead of one. We won't be back.

There were 4 tables and island music playing which made a cozy atmosphere. My husband and I got the hapa "mix" plate and our kiddo got the chicken katsu. From beginning to end, we ate like there was no tomorrow. The fried chicken was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, full of flavor. The kahlua pork hit the spot. And the bbq chicken is on point. The portions were more than decent sized so I was planning to save half for work tomorrow. I ended up killing the plate. We had to order a side portion of kahlua pork so I have something for lunch tomorrow. Unless I dip into it tonight. We will definitely be coming back to our new favorite spot!

The staff were super friendly and attentive from the moment we walked in, willing to answer questions and making us feel comfortable throughout our meal.

The food took about 15 minutes to arrive, everything is cooked fresh to order- which I love. We ordered the hapa mixed plate and it was plenty of food for both my husband and I to share. Everything was really good, the salad dressing was delicious. If you want some amazing hawaiian food, with friendly service then give Howzit a try, I doubt you will be disappointed.
