We stopped into this restaurant after hanging out in the Dallas area, and we were immediately…read moregreeted when we walked in. My husband and I had never been to a BBQ joint quite like this before. At first, we were looking around like, "Is this a buffet?" Lol The restaurant has a really cool Western BBQ feel, and you can smell the BBQ smoking before you even walk inside. The meat is weighed by the pound, and we ordered brisket, baked potatoes, creamed corn, green beans, and a brisket-stuffed pepper wrapped in bacon. One of the coolest things is that if you eat inside the restaurant, dessert is FREE! They had peach cobbler, banana pudding, and ice cream. The brisket was AMAZING, and so were the creamed corn, green beans, peach cobbler, and those bacon-wrapped stuffed peppers! We really enjoyed everything we tried. This was such a fun experience and some seriously good BBQ. I can't wait to return!

This has been my must go to twice a year when I visit a friend in McKinney for quite sometime now…read more What started out as the most amazing barbecue I've ever had has unfortunately come up short the last two times I've been there. Back in March I excitedly went to enjoy my usual brisket sandwich and green beans to find out they changed those to an entirely different recipe. Greasy and over powered with bacon and sweetness ruined what once was the best side they had there. Upon my most recent visit back two weeks ago I was hoping to find that they maybe realized they had made a mistake and went back to the original green beans but unfortunately that was not the case. Still those nasty greasy green beans. Eww! Also, my brisket sandwich this time was a no go. I asked for the lean cut but had to pick it apart to remove all of the fat in it which then made the bun super soggy. I was so disappointed again :( I'm not really sure what changes are being made and why but some things just need to stay the same. If it's not broke, don't try and fix it...

Went on 1/13/23…read more The location was slightly different; it was a food-truck circle with a Japanese Hibachi truck. Talked to Kenneth; very friendly. Let me sample the brisket. Mmm! I opted for pork ribs and coleslaw since that's what someone else ordered. =) The ribs were really great except the rub/crust made it a little saltier than I like. But I never use salt at a restaurant, and I order my In-N-Out fries cooked light, no salt. =) I should've just rubbed a little of the salt off the ribs and/or used a little water. So I would order that again. The coleslaw had a really good spicy kick. I think I like mine a little more chopped up, but I could've just thrown it in a food processor. Anyway, definitely worth trying the coleslaw. They have an unusual pizza, but this was the first weekend they didn't have the dough. They cater. And I think they know a good cajun cook. I love cajun, so I should've asked more about whether he was catering only, or if you could pick up at the food truck. Overall, good food. Friendly owners. Innovating, but not cutting corners. Wishing them all the best success!

From the beans and potato salad to all the meats, everything was excellent. The brisket is phenomenal, the sausage is outstanding, and the ribs are truly one of a kind. None of the meat even needs sauce--the smoke and natural flavor of the meat speak for themselves. I'm Texas born and raised, so I know good barbecue, and this place absolutely delivers. This is my second time here, and somehow it just keeps getting better every time I come back. You can tell they take pride in what they're doing and in the quality of the food they serve. Great food, authentic Texas barbecue, and definitely worth coming back for. Five stars all the way!

I was not disappointed and this will be my go to bbq spot in this area. Highly recommend and well worth the try. Great service and customer friendly. This is what what we tried: Ribs: 10/10 tender, juicy, flavorful, you can taste the passion and the developed technique. Jalapeno cheddar sausage: 10/10 bursting with flavor, seasoned just right, great quality, good snap. Cheddar and jalapeno is balanced. Very distinct and not one you can find just anywhere. Beef sausage: 10/10 bursting with flavor, great snap, great quality and also one you can't dine just anywhere. Potatoe salad: 8/10 creamy, potatoes well cooked not over cooked, good ingredients. I would have preferred a bit more seasoning and mustard. Bbq beans: 8/10 beans and ground meat based. Nice flavor, creamy, and good quality. I would have like a bit more seasoning. I did add some spicy bbq sauce and the chopped onions provided with the meal. That brought them up to a 10. Collard greens: 8/10 Smokey, seasoned, well cooked, has soul. I prefer a sweet and hot vinegar profile. These are not that but are in a class of their own. Very good and I will purchase again. Cornbread: 10/10 fluffy, moist, buttery, flavorful. Peach cobbler: 9/10 just the right sweetness. Hint of lemon. Cinnamon, brown sugar.. seasoned well. Great flavor. This is not a traditional peach cobbler due to the pie crust not being present. This one has more of a dump cake consistency. Still well worth trying and enjoying.

I took the order to go, but they do have a few picnic tables. I paid with a credit card. The brisket was so tender, it fell apart when my fork got close. The rib had a great smoky flavor seasoned perfectly. The sausage was good too. The regular BBQ sauce tastes like it has Worcestershire sauce in it. When I dipped by brisket into it, it tricked my brain into associating it to a steak. The spicy BBQ had a more traditional flavor. The BBQ is more affordable than many other BBQ establishments and that makes it wonderful!

The cooks know what they are doing. But just keep in mind that this is on a farm in the middle of Princeton Texas. And there were flies EVERYWHERE. You will see them fly and land and walk around all over the uncovered food. All of them. And nobody cared. So note to self. Lechon is $20 a pound. When I was there they maxed at 2 lbs per person. Some people called ahead. But be informed with their process on their Facebook page. Grilled squid was my favorite. It was $20. Not all options they pictured on their Facebook page that they stated were available actually are. I was looking forward to some pork blood stew and some barbecue pork on a stick and they didn't have any even tho it was mentioned that it would be there. Their process is not efficient as of yet so it takes a while to actually order and then pay for your food. So if you are in a rush- this is not a good idea.

There's a fantastic general store inside that sells their own pickled veggies and meats. There's also some nice bottled sodas too. We've only been for lunch. The dinner rush is supposed to be their busiest. It makes sense since they have live music in the evening. Match that up with the beer, string lights, and spring/summer nights for a perfect dinner. We'll have to be back to try it sometime! I have to admit - I've had many sandwiches in my life and what really made this was the ciabatta. I'm not a big fan of the bread because it's either too dense or there's too much of it and I'm eating 95% bread and 5% sandwich filling.
