My family and I went there not really sure what to order but thanks to the social media hype we knew whatever we ordered would be fantastic ! Still unsure of what to order we asked the cashier, Lily , if I'm not mistaken ,what to get and her recommendations did NOT disappoint. I went with the tacos and the rest of my family chose ribs. The experience was heavenly to say the least. We'll be back that's for sure! read more

In town for business and stumbled across Hurtado Barbecue -- and it became a three‑day pilgrimage. Day 1: Came in about an hour and a half before closing and ordered brisket, green beans, and Mexican rice. The brisket was the undeniable star, but those green beans were a very close co‑star. Fresh, flavorful, and unforgettable. Day 2: Told my colleagues, and four of us ordered to‑go. I got brisket, chicken, green beans, and brisket beans. The brisket was so intensely flavorful I literally hit my knee on the table. The chicken had a glaze so delicious and perplexing it felt like it transported me into space. Both sets of beans were absolutely breathtaking. Day 3: Now six of us went in person. I ordered brisket, pork ribs, burnt ends, brisket beans, and green beans. I didn't think it was possible, but somehow each visit gets better than the last. What to expect: Great customer service, a relaxed atmosphere, and tongue‑tantalizing flavors that stay with you. The food leaves you craving the textures and richness the way someone stranded in the desert would thirst for water. I'll be back tomorrow for the beef ribs -- only served on weekends read more

Hurtado Barbecue - Barbeque Near Me - Arlington, Texas

I will say not all recommendations are good recommendations. At least not for this place. First time in Dallas and was highly influenced to try this establishment. I must say I was not pleased. It was very underwhelming. Don't get me wrong this seems to be a very popular local and touristy establishment that may enjoy. Upon walking up the line was coming out the door, so expectations were extremely high. This is a cafeteria style restaurant where you go through the line. It moves quick so kind of know what you want prior to reaching the front of the line. The prices are a bit high, but if shared with someone it's pretty reasonable. The brisket was dry and the amount you get for the price, was NOT worth it. The pulled pork lacked flavor, even though it was drizzled with some sort of sauce. The elote corn was fairly decent. I could order this again along with the Mac and cheese. I did get a Texas Twinkie which was a bit different from another I had while in Dallas. The flavor is definitely there, but this one had pimento cheese inside, which pimento cheese is definitely an acquired taste. If you want dessert the banana pudding was very good. Seating is very limited inside, but they do offer outdoor seating with plenty of tables. I'm sure the Texas heat could deter you from eating outside on those extremely hot days. This establishment is worth trying if you're a tourist to compare to other well known bbq spots in Dallas. read more

We lucked out with lunch on a Friday timing! It was busy inside because of recent rain storms, and there was a bit of a line to order - the line moved quick and we were able to find a table outside by the bar that was covered. They had someone at the line taking orders on a device, only problem was no one was making sure the menus were stocked when you walked in....so until people saw a menu they didn't know what to order and that was holding up the efficiency of having someone taking orders before getting to the register. We looked on here to get the menu so we were prepared. Disappointed to find out that the beef rib was not an option for the plate meals and could only be bought at the by pound à la carte option but that the bone itself was at least a pound already...needless to say we did not get to try to beef rib. Everything else we did have was okay. The burnt ends were chillin in a pool of oil in its little tray....could not finish them. We really liked the brisket and my husband liked his brisket baked potato a lot! Our drinks from the bar were delicious and the staff behind the counter, behind the bar and taking our order were all very friendly. I wished they had more dessert options! A cobbler would be perfect!!! read more

After hearing the roar of the crowd regarding Hurtado Barbecue, I knew I had to make the drive to Dallas to see if the hype held weight. As the first stop on my Texas BBQ tour, the expectations were sky-high. The Atmosphere & Service First impressions: immaculate. The pit-master culture can sometimes feel a bit rough around the edges, but Hurtado breaks that mold. The facility is extremely clean and well-maintained, sporting an inviting vibe that makes you want to stay a while. The staff was truly phenomenal very helpful, patient with the menu questions, and clearly proud of what they're serving. The Tacos I dove straight into the signature items: the Brisket Taco and the Barbacoa Taco. The execution was solid, and the tortillas held up well, but I found myself at a bit of a crossroads. The brisket taco, while tender, relied quite heavily on the birria dipping sauce to carry the flavor home. On its own, the meat didn't quite have that punchy, standalone bark I was hunting for, though the sauce itself was excellent. The Sides: While people come for the meat, they might just stay for the sides. The potato salad was executed to perfection! balanced, creamy, and a classic palate cleanser. However, the Mac and Cheese was the real standout. I'd comfortably put this in my "top 5 restaurant macs" of all time. It's rich, decadent, and worth the trip on its own. At $6 per taco, the price point sits in that premium bracket, and at that cost, I generally expect the meat to provide a transcendent flavor profile without needing a secondary sauce as a crutch. Overall, Hurtado is a must-visit for the experience and the legendary sides. It's a very good plate of food, even if the tacos fell short of the "life-changing" mark for the price. read more

Nice bbq joint. I forget what it's called but we ordered the family sampler which came with a few sides and the variety of meats. In order of what I enjoyed the most: the brisket was so good, ribs were decent, pulled pork was on par with the ribs, turkey was okay. The Mac and cheese is a must order, pretty tasty. 5 stars for service, they went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of once we sat down outside. I'd add this to your list of locations to at least try once. read more

My very first trip to Texas and the very first thing I ate was BBQ. No pressure, right? Naturally I went to Hurtado Barbecue because if you're going to gamble your entire Texas food experience on one meal, it might as well be at a place that's been getting national hype and smoke signals from every BBQ nerd on the internet. I ordered the three-meat combo: * Brisket * Ribs * Sausage With a side of mac and cheese, plus a Texas Twinkie because I saw the name and thought, "Well I can't not order something called that." I grabbed a seat on the patio because it was a humid, sunny Texas afternoon, the kind where the air feels like a warm wet towel and you know somewhere nearby there's a smoker working overtime. The outdoor space had that perfect BBQ energy. Picnic tables, smoke in the air, people hovering over trays of meat like archaeologists discovering brisket fossils. The food came out pretty quickly, and when the tray landed in front of me it looked like a small monument to smoked protein. The brisket: Exactly what you hope for when someone says "Texas brisket." Tender, juicy, beautiful bark, and sliced thick enough to make you feel respected as a meat consumer. The ribs: Still very good, but they were my least favorite. That says more about my expectations than the ribs themselves. When you're in Texas you start expecting ribs to personally shake your hand and thank you for coming. The sausage: This was the surprise MVP. I wasn't even that excited for it but it ended up being my favorite bite of the entire tray. Snappy casing, super juicy, packed with flavor. I had a brief moment where I considered ordering another one and abandoning the rest of the meal. The mac and cheese: Creamy, comforting, doing exactly what mac and cheese should do next to BBQ -- acting as the emotional support side dish. The Texas Twinkie: I know this is one of their signature items (brisket stuffed jalapeño wrapped in bacon), but honestly... it didn't hit for me. Not bad, just not the star of the show compared to the meats. There were a couple sauces on the table and the orange one was my favorite, tangy with a little kick. I used it sparingly though because good brisket shouldn't need much help. Overall: For my first meal ever in Texas, this place set the bar pretty high. Great patio vibe, legit BBQ, and sausage that caught me completely off guard in the best way. If I'm ever back in Arlington, I'm 100% stopping here again and next time I'm ordering two sausages. read more

Disappointing!!! Don't waste your time & money. We were in the area getting a car serviced. I have no clue what the hype is about. Both the pork ribs & brisket were dry. There was no smokey true BBQ flavor. It wasn't even good with either sauce. Good Q doesn't require sauce.The best thing we had was the green chile mac & cheese. The green beans were okay as was the tater tot casserole which the server recommended. We came around 1:45. Thank goodness there was no line because it would not have been worth it. I agree with a recent post that this is mediocre food & overpriced. The server & other staff were friendly, but why would they not be? My S.O. was in the restaurant business & suggested that I mention the service. You order at the counter. I live in Houston & the Texas Monthly rated The Pit Room is my go to. Apparently I am extremely spoiled. read more

Hurtado BBQ absolutely lives up to the hype. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, with plenty of seating, even though it's almost always packed... for good reason. There's usually a wait, but the line moves efficiently and once you get your food, it's immediately clear why people are willing to stand in it. Everything we tried was outstanding. The burnt ends were rich, smoky, and perfectly tender. The brisket was juicy with a great bark, the pork ribs were flavorful and cooked just right, and the birria tacos were an unexpected highlight. We ordered a bunch of sides as well, and none of them disappointed. I liked the Mac and cheese because it had a little jalapeño flavor to it, and the corn was fresh and crunchy. This is 100% a place I'd come back to, wait and all. If you're in Arlington, Hurtado BBQ is a must. read more

It was my first and only time eating Texas BBQ. It was great. This place is one of the best in the area. We got there around 7:30pm and there was still a line. We stood in line for about 20 minutes. You order at the counter and get your food. They have seats on the inside and the outside of the restaurant, or you can take it to go. We opted to sit outside. While we were standing in line, I heard the guy cutting the meats say that they were on the last slab of ribs. That's what I wanted, but was afraid that they were going to run out. I asked the guy if that was it while he was cutting it. He smiled and said it was. However, he cut me two pieces of ribs to try just in case they ran out. I was so happy. I was there with my hubby, his uncle and his cousin. We all got the one meat plate that came with two sides $19.99. The guy in front of us did just order the last of the ribs, so I got the brisket instead. The two sides that I chose were the loaded mashed potatoes and Mexican street corn. I also got the tres leches banana pudding $4.50. I wasn't sure if I was going to like the combo, but it turned out fantastic. Everything that I tried was delicious. The brisket was tender and juicy. I tried both their house bbq sauces with it. They have the sweet & spicy or the aztec gold. I liked them both, but the aztec gold seemed spicier than the sweet & spicy. read more

One thing you must eat when visiting Texas is their BBQ. We heard great things about this restaurant so decided to stop by for dinner since we were in the area. There was only a small line when we arrived on a Sunday around 7pm but it moved rather quickly. The inside had a decent amount of tables but there were more available outside. We decided to order The Texas Trinity since we weren't that hungry and could try the different options in small amounts. It came with 1/3 lb of brisket, spare ribs and sausage, with a side of Mac n Cheese. We also ordered a side of beans. Nothing special about the food and thought it was very average. The sausage was probably the best but the other meats didn't have much flavor. I also wasn't a fan of the sides. Probably wouldn't recommend this spot unless you are in the area since there are so many other BBQ options in Texas. I'm still glad I was able to try it for myself. We noticed a line out the door when we left closer to 8pm so get here early in the evening if you dont want to wait as long. read more

Jeez... in top tier BBQ the difference between good and great is slim. To me a four or five stars is super close together. My rank would be a 4.5 stars but I'll round up. The highlights... turkey, pork ribs and mac n cheese= 5, the good... brisket and sausage= 4. Great outdoor seating and you can buy booze next door. Go! read more

Service was top notch and the last that assisted is choosing what to order for 11 people was do awesome. Can't remember her name but she went to Arlington HS. Pulled pork was super juicy and tasty, sausage has the right amount of spiciness to it so that it wasn't overpowering. Now to the two pieces that could have been better. The brisket and ribs. Both were a bit dry. The brisket did not pass the bend test. Actually it was a tough and chewy. I took it home and chopped it up to make some chopped brisket sandwiches drenched in sauce. The ribs did have a nice flavor just dry. For sides we had Hatch Chile Mac and Cheese, loaded mash potatoes, brisket beans and French fries. All were good and no complaints from the kids. Tried the Mexican cornbread. It says it comes with chopped brisket in it but I didn't have any. Well none that I could taste. I'm not going to totally dismiss the restaurant I just think the two meats that were overcooked. Flavors were there just dry. read more

When I dine out I have a strong preference to dine in not to go to a restaurant to carry my food out unless it's just pizza. Hurtado is located in an area where parking is not excellent. Once inside seating is not excellent either. It is not the least bit spacious with very limited seating inside. There's a lot of outdoor seating but in January in 40 degree weather I'm not willing to sit outside when there's plenty of restaurants to sit inside, warm and enjoying your meal. Hurtado has spicy hot Mac and cheese. My 4 year old little cutie pie powered through because she really loves mac and cheese. It's super popular though so if you love barbecue it's certainly worth a try. The washable, reusable cups with the restaurant logo are nice. read more

Rolling through Arlington,Tx I had to stop at a place labeled as Tex-Mex barbecue called Hurtado. Tex-Mex barbecue! What is that? I've never heard of such and I'm fromTexas. I arrived on a Saturday around 6pm and the line was out the door. The line did have a consistent flow and all the food was available that was on the menu. As with most barbecue places look and presentation of the food and establishment can be a little rough and not so glamorous, but it fits the food because bbq can get down right messy. A small amount of seating is available on the inside but most is outside. I ordered a 2 meat plate (1/4 pound each) with 2 sides for $26 and a birria taco. It was about a 10 min wait for the food and the taco was brought out about 10 min after that. This was the Lone Star state's tex-mex barbecue at its best. The sliced turkey, although processed, had a nice smokey flavor presence. The brisket was succulently tender, moist, and carried a good seasoned bark on top. I learned that I'm not a fan of birria tacos. They are too wet on a hard shell taco for my liking, but the taste was fine. The sauce was smokey and sweet, but I've had better and not much was needed. The sides accompanied the meat very well. The mexican street corn was reminiscent of elote with a mayo base, cheese, cilantro, and lime. While the brisket beans were savory with little chunks of brisket mixed throughout. This was a wonderful meal that definitely left me satisfied. read more

We arrived at Hurtado about thirty minutes before opening, and all the other bbq fans were waiting in their cars, so we did the same. About ten minutes later, a new group showed up and began to line up, so one by one we got out of our cars to join the line. Once they opened, it was only about ten minutes to move through the line, order, and take our seats. The restaurant itself is cozy and clean, and the service line was quick. Staff were courteous and friendly. Brisket: tender, bark was peppery goodness, great smoke. Ribs: a little bland, but amazing texture, couldn't put down Sausage: great depth of flavor, great snap Tater tot casserole was amazing. My son and I tried at least ten of the "top 50" bbq places while on this bbq road trip through Dallas/Ft Worth, Waco, Austin, Lockhart, and Houston, and Hurtado was consistently the one we kept referring back to as the standard. The best! Pro tip: visit their menu ahead of time online and know what you want before getting to the order station to keep the line moving. read more

Hurtado Barbeque offers a unique fusion of traditional barbecue with Mexican flair, providing a tantalizing twist on classic dishes. The marriage of smoky barbecue flavors with vibrant Mexican spices creates a memorable culinary experience that is sure to please adventurous palates. While the concept is promising, my recent visit left me with mixed feelings. The Texas twinkie, a signature dish blending jalapeños, cream cheese, and brisket, unfortunately fell short of expectations. Twinkie was overcooked The menu is standard Texas BBQ at the "norm" for prices. The ribs were the best meat i had that day. Ribs had a nice bark and great flavor. The brisket was underwhelming . I will say it was locally popular, but I have had better. read more

Hurtado Barbecue was highly recommended by friends, but sadly I was underwhelmed by the food. I ordered the Birria Tacos, Mexican Rice and a Texas Twinkie. I also tasted the pulled pork and Mac N' Cheese. The rice and Mac N' Cheese were tasty, but I found that the meat was lacking in flavor. Luckily, there was a dipping sauce and additional BBQ sauce to add flavor. The Texas twinkle was also good. One thing I have to say about Hurtado BBQ is the service is excellent. You order at the counter, so there was a bit of a line, but they operate efficiently. They are also helpful and friendly. There are many different choices for seating, and bit rustic and very fitting of a Texas BBQ restaurant. We sat at the bar and our food came to us in no time. I do have to mention that I didn't like the Tres Leches Banana Pudding. It wasn't at all what I was expecting and it was extremely sweet. read more

I live in Seattle and I first learned about this place watching a "Meat Church" BBQ video. I made their pork belly burnt ends myself and hoped i would get to eat at the restaurant in person some day. Quick trip to Dallas presented the opportunity to come and check them out! The young lady that took my order was VERY PATIENT with me and helped me order. She gave me a sample of the turkey and it was nicely smoked and had a good flavor. I ordered a 3 meat platter: 1 - brisket - this was as a bit disappointing. It was a little dry and only the fat side had "bark." They probably could have trimmed some of the fat off too. 2 - pork belly burnt ends - loved this and it was similar to the bork belly burnt ends I have made on my Traeger smoker/grill! 3 - the ribs were my FAVORITE. Great flavor, moist and juicy, and wished I had more ribs and less brisket. For my sides I did the Hatch Mac n cheese. Loved it!!! Just enough spice and really enjoyed the hatch chilies with the cheese. Also got the street corn. It had too much sauce but was good corn. Next time I would just get roasted corn. Also got the "tres leches" banana pudding for dessert. I really liked the dessert. Nice Spanish twist on banana pudding. Instead of vanilla wafers they use "galletas Maria" and it really worked. It was a nice night so I ate outside at a picnic table in back. A little battle with the flies but it was a nice evening. Dallas has so many amazing BBQ options and I liked the Spanish twist to Texas BBQ that they did. Next time I will have to get a Texas Twinkie and a birria taco! read more

Hurtado Barbecue is located in Arlington, Tx serving some of the finest BBQ in the DFW metroplex! We came by on a weekday during the lunch hours and it was not crowded but they did have a line that simply moved fast and efficient that was managed by the staff to get the guest in and seated as quickly as possible. Ordering was easy as to where you simply let the staff know what you would like, and they will give you a ticket you present to the cashier. There was menu boards posted that was clear and visual to read with prices and serving sizes. They also have merch to sell like BBQ sauce, Prickly pear, and cookbooks. We decided to order a brisket tostada, hatch chili mac n cheese, 1/2 lb spareribs, green beans sauteed with chorizo, Mexican corn bread, brisket elote, and fries. We sat outside in an open clean space with benches and tables. They also had silverware and napkins along with jugs of ice water at every corner. They also have a small bar located in the seating area that serves adult beverages. The food was ready in no time and our friendly server brought our food to us in a jiffy! The food was looking exquisite, and I couldn't wait to dive in, but we all know the camera eats first! The brisket tostada was stacked with luscious juicy brisket garnished with cilantro, sliced onions and cojito cheese laying on a bed of smooth refried beans and a crunchy tostada. The star of the show was 2 massive fall off the bone pork ribs that were O so flavorful and seasoned to perfection. The mac n cheese was very creamy and cheesy with a nice flavor profile of hatch chiles. The brisket elote was very tasty with brisket piled high over a bed of corn garnished with lime and cojito cheese. The green beans were fresh green beans that were cooked al dente presenting a nice snap back with chunks of chorizo sausage. The Mexican corn bread was super moist and flavorful but yet I don't know exactly everything inside, but it is definitely worth checking out. Altogether I really enjoyed this place due to the amazing food they offer, and the excellent customer service provided. The ambiance is in a lovely setting for BBQ and the organization was ran smoothly and efficiently. They also have another location in Mansfield as well as a stall in Globe Life Field. read more

Disclaimer: I'm not a huge bbq person but I was unimpressed with Hurtado. I wanna say this was closer to 3.5 than 4 but rounding up for the staff. We came here on Saturday around 1:30pm and there was a pretty long line but it moved steadily. In total, we waited probably 40 minutes. We ended up getting 3 meats: brisket, burnt ends, and pulled pork. For the sides, we got the corn and mac and cheese. We also ordered the corn bread and banana pudding. The meats were tender but I feel like the flavors were nothing to phone home about. I was excited about the mac and cheese which looked so cheesy and delicious but the flavor was light. I did eat my leftovers the next morning with the brisket cut up and mixed in and it was better. The cashier and servers kept talking about how addicting the banana pudding was. My verdict, good but it's extremely sweet! I definitely could not eat more than two bites at a time. Overall, i would be back but would definitely not wait more than 20 minutes for it. read more

Visiting Texas the first thing we wanted to do was get loaded up with barbecue. Upon entering you go into a line, order your food, pay, and then sit down. There were 4 of us so we got a platter to share between 4 to 6 people. It came with 4 types of meat, 4 sides, and 4 quesa birilla tacos also pickles and white bread. We had pulled pork, ribs, sausage, and brisket. For sides we got potato salad, mexican street corn, green beans, hatch mac and cheese and an extra side of tater tot casserole. Honestly the portions of meat we got could easily have served at least 6 people, so we had a lot of left overs. The meats were all super tender and well seasoned. I was surprised how much I loved the pulled pork, possibly the best I've ever had. Ribs while tender still had a good texture, not mushy. Brisket just melted, and sausage had great flavor and snap. The quesa birilla wasnt exactly bad, but it was not seasoned how Im used to. The meat was over powered by the seasoning instead of bringing out its flavor. My favorite side was the potato salad, it was so creamy and I loved the green onion and bacon in it. The least favorite was the green beans. They were bland and texture was almost to al dente. Street corn was good but looked better than it tasted. Mac and cheese was solid but not mind blowing. I enjoyed the tator tot casserole. Not something I've had before. Some things that could improve. They gave us the platter of food, but no individual plates. That would have made it a lot easier to grab what we wanted and not make a mess while eating. Also a self serve water station would have been great. They aren't waiting on you and the food makes you thirsty. I tried to stand near the register to ask for a water refill, but they were oblivious, so I had to go back in line. Not ideal when you are in the middle of a meal. Their bbq sauces were ok, but not my favorite. Overall the meat quality was what I would hope for, and way better than las vegas lol so I was happy with my experience. read more

I've tried Hurtado twice now, and both times I've felt just kind of "meh" about the food. Not horrible, but not overly ecstatic about the quality. We ordered the Texas Trinity with brisket, ribs, and sausage, and also ordered the chile Mac and brisket cornbread. Both sides were good, especially the cornbread. The brisket was SO unbelievably dry, it was painful. The sausage was okay and had kind of a "hot dog" taste to it. I will say, the ribs were amazing. Next time, I would just stick to only the ribs and sides, and I'm sure I would have a much better experience. They also have a bar next door called Hayters that you can dine in, which was great because they had a nice selection of beer on tap. read more
