Words can't describe it well enough. You must try for yourself! I promise you won't be let down. The meat on the ribs just fall "OFF THE BONE" and so tender its unbelievable. And I must mention that the pound cake is Wonderful! read more

Great brisket and pork loin. Bare bones interior, but the crew delivers excellent BBQ and sides. I have eaten BBQ all over Texas, in KCMO, StL, and Carolina. This is best. The smoke is authentic, ergo the flavor. The sauce is an excellent complement! The crew is welcoming and very friendly! read more

Off The Bone BBQ - Delicious Texas Double with smoked brisket, pork loin, tater salad and okra! Broke da mout'! - Barbeque Near Me - Forest Hill, Texas

The place has good barbeque, I would definitely give this place a try if you have not already. I would get a dish that allows you to try most of the meats. The place is pretty clean and the people there are nice. It is, however, a bit pricey for what you get. read more

Pretty good BBQ joint! Looking for fancy, stay clear. Definitely tasty, but no beer :-( read more

I've passed by and seen the long line before so today I decided to stop by and see what is up...I ordered the Triple Threat: ribs, sliced brisket and dark chicken with coleslaw and mac&cheese. As for the food, my favorite was the ribs and brisket. The coleslaw is good even though I have never had it with raisins in it but the mac&cheese was not flavorful at all. The absolute best was the peach cobbler, eww yum! You can taste and feel the soft but slightly crispy crust. I will go back soon for more peach cobbler. Overall, it was good. Thanks! read more

We were told that this place has some really good BBQ, and I KNOW and LOVE bbq, so I decided to give this a try. My boyfriend had the sausage and ribs and I had the three meat dinner, with sausage, sliced beef and ribs. Both combos came with Texas toast and a drink, along with 2 sides. We also got cole slaw, corn on the cob and potato salad. Now like I said, I love BBQ and I know some awesome BBQ and some not-so-awesome BBQ. This is one place that is right in the middle. The ribs were not falling "off the bone", the sliced beef was pretty tough, and the sausage was good, but definitely not the best I've ever had. Yet, all the meat had the nice smoky flavor and the sauce, well you might have to have an acquired taste for it. It was good, but off at the same time. Lol. This place was reasonably priced, it's not a bad place at all! Would I go back? Maybe. Would I drive out of my way to get some? No. If I do want BBQ, I will just get my dad to make some (now that is some GREAT bbq) or go to SpringCreek for a good fix! read more

Stopped in while on business in the DFW area based on others' reviews. A true hole-in-the-wall type place....like what Famous Dave's tries too hard to be. I had the chicken and rib combo plate and it was mighty fine. My corn on the cob was soggy (aren't they all unless you do it at home?) but everything else was really good. Ribs maybe too salty but, hey, it's a BBQ joint. Got away for $18 with tip. I'll stop in again when I'm back in town. read more

Off the Bone's ribs are among the BEST I have ever tasted! I have eaten ribs all over Texas, Louisiana, Memphis, Alabama and yet Off the Bone ranks at the top! Go and eat the ribs with their amazing secret sauce and you will be a very happy camper. Arroz read more

I regret ordering baby back ribs basket here. First, the bread is not toasted. It's like bread you buy from the grocery market to make sandwiches. Secondly, the baby ribs were dry as the Sahara desert. It was flavorless. The barbeque sauce didn't help as hell. Thirdly, the fries were soggy and unsatisfying. I would not order this again. I had good food before for the same costs with even more servings. In all, I would've gone elsewhere. read more

Off The Bone BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Forest Hill, Texas

Great BBQ! I learned of this BBQ joint through Full Custom Gospel BBQ. Daniel V. has excellent taste in BBQ! I frequent his site when I have a hankerin' for BBQ. Great food and WONDERFUL, friendly service! It's definitely worth the drive to South Fort Worth! :) Had #21 - Rib & Sliced Beef Dinner. The rib meat fell off the bone!! read more

From the outside it looks like it turned a run down gas station but inside is actually not that bad. Order at the register and they also have a drive-thru ("ghetto" system might I add) Ordered ribs and brisket with coleslaw and Mac & cheese. Ribs 100% needed sauce. Without the sauce I think I would not eat it. It's not that it's dry, but its dry.. You'll understand if you try it. With the sauce, the ribs are pretty good! Brisket was good and had that smokey flavor we know and love. I'd get it again. Mac & cheese was not gross.. Not sure what they use for it but I didn't enjoy it. Coleslaw tastes store bought to me, not a fan. Not a bad joint and the folks there are somewhat nice. It's cheap and okay BBQ. I'd only be back if it was on the way. read more

They are extremely friendly. The food is not up to my standards. My brisket is better, potato salad definitely does not come close to mine.

Ribs are great, nice smokey flair for sure the sauce takes away from these. The sample I had lived up to the name of the place. Hard to beleive they can get that kind of smokey flavor for only an hour and a 45 in the smoker. The brisket had great flavor. My slice was a little on the tough side. Also a little dry, almost like it was pre-cut too early. I hear the chicken is killer, I will have to come back and try it. Great atmosphere, friendly staff. Not the best BBQ in dfw like one magazine would have you think. read more

They close the dining are at 7 and the drive-up closes at 8. Even though we walked in at 6:55 they were really good about letting us know they closed at 7 but take our time. Damn good ribs, mac and cheese was on par, next time I make it down to dfw area I will defiantly be back. read more

Judging by these reviews it seems that some days are better than others here. (But maybe that's true of all barbeque restaurants.) We must have hit them on a very good day--the brisket and ribs were smoky, moist, and tender. Does it matter if the meat was lukewarm instead of hot? The sides were adequate but nothing spectacular. The only issue I personally had is that I don't like celery seeds in my cole slaw. Eddie, the owner, is a super-nice guy, and he made the rounds of the "dining room," checking to see if everyone was enjoying the food. I can't say if this is the best barbeque in the Metroplex, but it's damn good! read more

Its all about the ribs! Brisket was good, lots of smoke flavor but not as moist as it could have been. But the ribs, WOW, its definitely all about the ribs. They are fairly small in size but very meaty, fall of the bone tender, good smoke flavor and cooked to perfection. Had the potato salad and the fried okra. The potato salad was fairly pedestrian. I asked for the fried okra to be extra crispy and it was served exactly as I requested. Best fried okra I've had in a long, long time. I'll be back for a rib basket with the okra, thank you very much. read more

Went for the first time a couple weeks ago. Friendly staff. Lines were hella long bc they close at 7pm. The potato salad was my favorite side. Cakes and brownies are good. Sweet tea was yummy and not overly sugary. We ate inside which was cool-it wasn't dirty or anything. Bbq was tender and moist. Bbq sauce was good and taste homemade. Would have gave it 5 stars but it waa my first time and the mac and cheese was just ok. . Will definitely go back. read more

Sauce was good. ribs were kinda dry for my taste. My daughter had the sausage and said it was too spicy for her and I would have to agree the spice way over powered the smoke/bbq flavor. I am very critcle of bbq because it is my favorite. This is not as good as hard eight in coppell area. The price was really good in my opinion. I also thought the people working were fast and friendly. The seating area reminded me of a fast food place so it was not that great if you are eating in. I would say this place is average. comparible to spring creek only bigger portions and a more fastfoodish atmosphere. read more

Come here if you are looking for good BBQ!! Def recommend the baby back ribs! Prices are better than Dickies BBQ! Right off 1-20 on Mansfield Industrial Rd. There is always a long line so get there early if you can. Lobby closes at 7pm. If you are order online order before 6:30pm so you can make sure your order is placed! The wait is worth it! read more

This BBQ is among the best in Tarrant County. I've been eating here for over 10 years and the meats have never disappointed. The chopped beef is amazing because it's chopped and mixed with the house BBQ sauce (which is available for purchase in bottles) and kept hot until you order. This allows the meat to continue to render its fat, leaving tender juicy chopped brisket. The sausage is another of my favorites because it is made with chunks of meat and spices and smoked to perfection. Friday's are special because they serve catfish. The fish is perfectly coated with cornmeal and has a nice "snap". Fillets are thick and tasty the hush puppies are delicious. House made pepper sauce is an excellent complement to the fish. Sides are about average; although the cole slaw is made in house and includes raisins and crushed pineapple. This is not fast food but is well worth the wait. Be sure to pick up bottles of the BBQ sauce and pepper sauce to take home. read more

I tried the babyback rib plate with mac n cheese and beans it was really good. The ribs were truly fall off the bone the sauce please ask for extra because its so good you can drink it out the container lol. Didnt get a 5 star from me only because customer service it was kind of rushed and a lil pricey. read more

Prices are awesome, friendly staff and food is off the chain! I used to own a BBQ catering business and I will tell you this is definitely the best "hole in the wall" BBQ I have ever had. Smokey, tender, decent portions and quickly served up in the line. Plenty of parking and seating. Mac and cheese is phenomenal, the brisket and ribs literally do "fall off the bone." Everywhere we go for BBQ now we compare to this place. A must try if you live in the DFW area. read more

Old school Texas style BBQ! Atmosphere isn't much, but it's all about the food. If you like real bbq this is the place to go. read more

Off The Bone BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Forest Hill, Texas

Stopped here during a guided BBQ Tour of Fort Worth. The ribs, coleslaw, and potato salad was the best here out of all of the restaurants our tour took us to. This place is not posh in anyway with its very simple decor but ambiance isn't the reason why its known by DFW bbq lovers. If you see past the aesthetics then your in store for some tasty food. Counter style ordering and payment and then you seat yourself. When they call out your number you raise your hand and they bring your order to you. The pecan wood they use yo smoke the meat makes for some delicious ribs. read more

Off The Bone BBQ - Off The Bone has the best coleslaw! - Barbeque Near Me - Forest Hill, Texas

Crappy location in a ghetto hood area of southeast Forest Hill. Sliced lean (very dry) brisket is not good at all. Chewy with little smoke flavor. There is no fatty brisket available unless you want a sloppy joe? Why the guy from Texas Monthly likes this well below average BBQ amazes me. (Oh yeah, he's from Dallas). It's far worse than Riskys or even Dickeys! Go to Railhead or Angelo's for the best brisket in Fort Worth! read more

Do not use online ordering because they s8ck at it! The food is good however I placed an online order to be ready for pick up at 12:30 pm. Here it is 12:43 and I just now got my food. The place isn't busy so that's not an excuse. The employees were nice enough but you have got to be efficient. I probably won't be coming back. read more

So I placed an online order to be picked up at 7:10 and drove 20 minutes across town and it took 40 minutes to get my food this is very unprofessional and this business owner needs to come up with a better plan on picking up online orders especially since the lobby closes at 7 and drive up is 6 cars back!!! I will not be back unless this is fixed.... BTW my food was cold by the time I got it not worth the $30 I just spent should have went somewhere that appreciates my business....I would suggest a walk up window just for online orders!!!! read more

So sad that this place has gone downhill for me. I went here last week because I've had very pleasant experiences in the past and I was in the mood for some good BBQ. Sad to say the ribs are no longer fall off the bone anymore. I got the rib basket special with a side of fries. The side of fries is a joke, I received maybe 10 fries and I'm not exaggerating. The ribs were dry and had no flavor. I needed the BBQ sauce for any type of flavor. Sad to say I won't be back again. read more

Hole in the wall place with fantastic food. The ribs might have been the best ribs I've ever had. The okra and Mac and cheese sides were amazing as well. Price was very fair and the place was clean. Next time I'm in the Dallas area, I will hit this up again. read more

Great food for the money. Had the sliced meat. Was surprisingly good. Friendly staff. Hole in the wall you'll come back to.

Had a craving for a baked potato decided I'd take a chance, worst one i ever had. Potato was hard and not very tasty felt like it's been out for days , meat was okay nothing to brag about although I had the chopped brisket. read more

They are big fans of brown sugar in their dry rub and I'm a big fan of that! The joint is an old Dairy Queen so don't expect table cloths, but they didn't get voted one of the best BBQ places in the metroplex as a prank. The pork ribs are serious business and their brisket is way above average. Pretty sure there is crack in the potato salad. They close promptly at 7:30 even though the sign on the door says 8... but I think all the locals know that. They didn't chase us out though and in fact gave us outstanding (and unexpected) service even though we were the last one there... drinking their sauce through a straw. read more

I'm giving this place 5 stars cus its some of the best BBQ in this area by far. Yes there are lots of places that are special but it's hard to find GOOD ribs! The burnt ends on the brisket were delicious, the okra and beans were nice and the sauce was delicious. When I told the young lady that it was my first time she brought me a taste of sausage and Mac n cheese. Really??? Yes! Really!! How many places that you know have ever done that? In an era where racial issues are at the top of so many peoples agendas, if you have doubts and wanna see how it should be, go here. Drop any issues you may have at the door, put on a smile, and you and your belly will be loved. The meals are HUGE and I had to take the rest to go along with my perfectly mixed Dr. Pepper from the fountain. These folks know food and people and are a true delight. This will become my family's new BBQ joint of choice! God bless Off the Bone!! read more

I stopped in today because I was in the Forest Hill area. The ribs were very tender and the hot links were good as well. The cole slaw has pineapples and raisins in it, which was different. However, the Mac and Cheese was on point. I will definitely return. read more

HORRIBLE!!!! It made me give one star it deserves ZERO stars!!! It was not good the potaoe salad was way too sweet, they give you one small thing of bbq sauce and charge .60 for another and the Mac n' cheese was nasty..... Stay away there are better bbq joints in DFW! Not worth the price!!!!! The bbq was nasty and salty too!!!! read more

This is absolutely the best BBQ in Ft worth. I don't know who claims to reign supreme on the BBQ circuit, but I'd like to say "Off the bone" and see the expression on their face. Lol read more

The best BBQ around in my opinion. Be prepared for a wait in the drive thru especially near close, but totally worth it best ribs in town and the barbecue sauce is amazing!!! read more

First off when the girlfriend finds out I cam here without her I will be sleeping with the dogs. I did get some catfish " served only on Fridays," brisket an ssg.. Ok the people or very nice an great service. The catfish was a thumbs up, but the BBQ was ok on a good day. I did belch it for about 8 hrs. They do smoke there meats themselves, but it taste like they added liquid smoke. Sorry D magazine you missed this one, but no surprise they put cousin's BBQ on the list. read more

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND CALL AHEAD OR BEAT THE LUNCH CROWD! Great bbq my go to meal is the horseshoe. Which includes a huge loaded backed Potatoe with chopped beef along with 3 ribs. Unfortunately it's so popular that they usually run out of backed potatoes pretty fast. If you're not in a rush this bbq is worth the wait. Oh and take it to go. This place gets pretty crowded read more

This was the first time I've been to Off the Bone BBQ in a while and I have to say the food was horrible. I normally have a great experience, but this time the meat tasted very cheap the potatoes salad wasn't seasoned nor the beans. I'm very angry I wasted $14 on a double meat plate that I ended up tossing in the trash. read more
