Norm's Smokewagon Pit BBQ is a foodtruck with quite good BBQ that I just discovered at the Galleria…read moreVillage parking lot in Bryan. It is a trailer with a smoker in the back and food prep room in the front, flying the US and Texas flags. I tried the three meat plate with brisket, ribs, and pulled pork. For the sides, they were out of potato salad so I had the beans and coleslaw. The meats are clearly cooked low and slow because they fell apart with a spoon. The only real negative with the meat was that the rub was too salty. The sides were good, but the meats were better. The bbq sauce on the side was excellent, with a peppery flavor. As long as Norm's Smokewagon is in Bryan it's going to be playing second fiddle to Fargo's, but if Norm's sets up shop in College Station then it will be the best BBQ in CS. See the facebook page for messages about when it will be where.

My husband and I were out on a motorcycle ride on Christmas Eve and passed through Caldwell. We were excited to see something open and decided to stop at Daisy Dukes Barbecue--and I'm so glad we did. From the moment you walk in, you get that hometown, come-on-in feeling that lets you know the food is going to be good. We were starving and couldn't decide what to order, so the owner suggested a sampler. I don't know if it was an official menu item or something she just put together for us, but she absolutely loaded us up. We had brisket, sausage, fried fish, potatoes, potato salad, coleslaw, and beans--and every bit of it was amazing. We even grabbed two desserts to go. I honestly can't say enough good things about this place, and I can't believe it's been here forever and we've never stopped in before while traveling through. If you're in the area--or even if you're not--it's worth the trip. We can't wait to come back.

Bottom Line: The finest BBQ experience in the College…read moreStation & Bryan TX area is found on Hwy 21 a few scant miles west (about 5 mi from downtown Bryan). Excellent & inexpensive BBQ and truly exceptional people make C&C BBQ out on Smetana Rd a "Must Do!!!" stop in the area. Your taste buds will be happier and your day will be brighter for it. You can thank me later. Top Line: As is typical on my BBQ road tripping, most eateries in the College Station & Bryan TX got a single visit to check out their vittles & their digs. It takes someplace special to draw a second visit. In the College Station & Bryan area, that place was C&C BBQ. An alternative BBQ joint got slid down the schedule to make time for the second round at C&C on Sunday, since they are currently only open on Sat & Sun. Charles's touch with his smoker is exquisite. The smoke note in the meat is not sharp, edgy, or acrid. His smoke flavor comes out round, balanced, full, velvety, and smooth. His rub has enough peppery snap to give it character, without being harsh or aggressive. Again, balanced and masterful. Ribs on the first visit were meaty, arriving trimmed quite free of fat. This gave the smoke excellent access to the meat, which took it up very nicely. Brisket sandwich on my second trip west was very, very tender and wonderfully juicy. It was a 4-napkin sandwich! That indicates just how tender & moist it was. And it was equally tasty, exhibiting like the ribs Charles's mastery of his craft. Sides are limited to four items: potato salad, whole kernel corn, green beans, pinto beans. Potato salad has a slight hit of pickle juice jumping it up a bit. Corn with diced tomatoes has a bit of bite & snap to it, setting the corn apart from its usual semi-blandness. The green beans were very tender & seemed to have butter dancing in the mix, which made them more flavorful. The pinto beans were rich in flavor due to having some shredded meat added in. Their texture was on the mark as well. Banana pudding was the weakest link in my estimation. The taste was pretty typically sweet banana pudding flavor, which is not a bad thing. The texture, while being smooth & creamy as pudding should be, struck me as being a bit too moist. The vanilla wafers cookies had gotten soggy from the pudding, so there was no crunch or solidity contrast to the creamy pudding. Cost for this Nirvana of BBQ heaven was mondo cheap (see picture), particularly given the extremely tasty food. C&C BBQ is not only some of the very best BBQ in the area, it is also amazingly high value eating due to it's miniscule prices. Also, kudos to them for having a bathroom on premises to clean up in after your (over) indulgence. But to only mention the quality & cost of the food is to tell the lesser part of the story. The greatest part about eating at C&C is the bright, shining, positive, effusive, enthusiastic, sunshiny, uplifting personalities of Charles & Carol. These two folks radiate joy & happiness at an astronomical level. To hang out with this pair while downing such good BBQ makes your visit a jewel among the days of your life. So head west from Bryan TX to the junction of Hwy 21 & Smetana Rd to get your own shot of sunshine from Charles & Carol and a chowdown of their bodacious BBQ. As I said above, you can thank me later.

I was instantly greeted by Carole and Charles as well as one of their employees. I got a lunch combo which includes your choice of sandwich, chips, and a drink. I got a chopped brisket sandwich which was chopped in front of me and was piled into hamburger buns. I was offered to try the brisket beforehand since it was my first time and it was DELICIOUS! While I waited for my meal I talked with the owners and their employee who were all so nice. I recommend this place to anyone who is longing for some good old fashioned bar-b-que!! 10/10 recommend.

Couldnt even be bothered to turn on radio or tv for multiple guests waiting in dining room. MULTIPLE staff seen handling & cross contaminating foods without GLOVES and passed directly to customers. Not to mention the holes in the ceiling dripping with water, ceiling deposits on the floor, lack of venting in the womens restroom, and mysterious substances (orange/brown flakes) in the ice/soda machine, mold and water dripping from air vents, dust buildup on wall fixtures, ect. And lastly, very strong piss smell coming from mens restroom (urinals clearly have not been cleaned in some time) with a sprinkling touch of a few roaches by mens restroom door.

I usually buy New York strips, Ribeye Steaks and Brisket. I love looking at all of the cuts in the meat counter. They also have a great selection of sausage. The Jalapeno & cheddar is my favorite! The service is always friendly and the store well stocked. My last trip was for New York strip steaks. I also love their house blended rubs! There's almost nothing you can't find here. They have everything from duck to Turducken. Did I mention the rotisserie chicken or divine homemade pies? Peach & Apple all delicious. Whenever I'm in town, I almost always visit Readfield to make something delicious for the family!

I recently visited Readfield Meats & Freezer and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience…read more The customer service was unfriendly and unhelpful from the moment I walked in. I had a few basic questions about their products and pricing, and it felt like I was inconveniencing the staff just by asking. There was little effort to explain options or provide recommendations. The store itself also seemed disorganized and not as clean as I would expect from a meat market. The display cases didn't look well-maintained, and some products appeared poorly labeled, making it hard to tell what I was purchasing. On top of that, the pricing didn't reflect the level of quality or service provided. I expected better overall professionalism and attention to detail. Based on this visit, I wouldn't return or recommend it to others unless significant improvements are made in customer service and store upkeep.
