Stopped in going southbound after visiting the BBQ place across the highway northbound a week ago…read more Similar offerings, but I personally preferred this place. I had the yummy pulled pork, which was super tender & not fatty at all. I loved their honey bbq sauce. I also had the mac & cheese, which was good, but personally too large of sides for me. Sharing would have been fine. They have a bbq potato that I'll try next time. Hubby had the turkey, which he said was good & moist, but not as smokey flavored as he'd like. The atmosphere is ok, but would be nice if they had more windows for light, but not that big of a deal. Everyone in our little group liked this place a lot. Pic is current menu & pricing as of 6/20/26.

Solid Texas BBQ!…read more Typical set up where you order at one end and they call your number to pick up your food. It is definitely a family operation w the kids wiping down tables and helping to carry food to the table. The BBQ was as expected, with a good bark on the brisket (the spice blend is heavier on the salt than my preference... I like pepper more) and the turkey was very moist. The aesthetic was rustic with a concrete floor and old signs on the wall.

We usually start with fried mushrooms and ranch, because they are so good! They have several different hamburgers That are really good if that's what you're in the mood for. I have two favorites. First is the seafood platter. Two different kinds of battered fish and shrimp, always freshly fried and delicious. My second favorite is the vegetable chicken, which is a chicken breast covered in queso and then covered in sautéed vegetables. This dish is absolutely delicious! I normally get it every other time! Of course, the chicken fried steak is always good, be sure not to pass it up! Skeet's is certainly not a fancy place, but the food is sure worth it! Meet you there!

Daughter had salad with blue cheese, fried pork chop (8oz), French fries, corn, and roll. Entrees were cooked to order and breaded on site. The corn/green beans were canned, but not terrible. French fries were good once salted. The mashed taters had an oddly firm texture. Flavor was fine, just seemed unnaturally firm. The outside of the building has seen better days, and the interior decor was a chaotic collection of clearance aisle decals and school sports jerseys. The service was friendly and helpful, but with the place being packed, our salads were forgotten until we asked. However, that's the only negative comment for service. Don't sleep on the pork chops! The chicken fried steak was good, but the best food on the table was the pork chop.
