I was excited to try this place since I love BBQ and the restaurant is "famous" so my expectations…read morewere high. We went for lunch on a Saturday. As the restaurant jokingly notes, they have the worse parking situation in Tyler. In reality, it was not the worst, but it is not good. There are just a handful of spots around the restaurant so you have to drive around and find a place. There was a line, but it moved pretty quickly. There was plenty of seating outside and there is an air-conditioned seating area that I did not see until we were already seated. The kid had the chopped brisket sandwich and although she did not like it very much, I tried it and I liked it better than my sliced brisket. The wife had a Texas taco (with brisket) and liked it. I had 1/2 pound of brisket, lean. The price was much lower than in Dallas. I added a side of Mac n' cheese. The brisket had great bark and was super tender. I got the lean that I wanted, but honestly it was a bit dry. Plus, I mistakenly applied the hot and spicy sauce to my brisket and it was so incredibly peppery that it was virtually inedible. I had to scrape it off and apply the regular sauce. I cannot who can tolerate that peppery sauce, it was just way too hot. For reasons we never understand but that always seems to happen, big groups that came after us were served their food before us. I don't get how that always happens. Overall, it was a good experience and if we return II would try some different things on the menu.

I admit , however, I also had Beef barbacoa taco which was wonderful. Whole 16.00 Chicken was just terrible I can't stress that enough!! Went back and they won't take it back. After showing them the dried out chicken (see picture) they said breast is always dry. They said no way give me my money back. (Walmart makes better moisture flavorful chicken than this was.) Hernandez employee came up with all kinds of excuses why no money back. Hernandez rep said "Breast is always dry." I disagree not that dry. Walmart is actually good but not like this horrible crap. I repeated to employee that I threw up to employee. But she said she can't make money if she gives back 16.00 for no flavor dry chicken. I said you can't make money with this terrible of food!!!! I said this will all be in my yelp review but she could not care less. No butter basting or anything of the like on the chicken. No flavor. No sauce no nothing. Yuck!!! No air conditioning place to sit and eat just hot room.

Yall let me tell you it was so fast he wasn't in there not even probably 10 minutes if that he wasn't back in the truck with our food. I couldn't wait got my potato out and went to town on it.

Long story short this place has everything you want except maybe Beef Ribs. The sides were awesome, I picked up some roasted squash and roasted potatoes. Very good. And went with a 3 meat plate 25.99. With Taxes and everything the tab came out to about 29.00+. Not bad, considering something like this out in Los Angeles would probably set you back close to 40.00. The baby back ribs were tender and retained most of its moisture, AAA. Brisket was alright, dries out really easily, preferred even thinner cut, but had a decent fat to lean meat marbling. Last meat option, I went with Spicy Sausages. It was infused with cheddar, and in all honesty, probably should have went with a slice of ham or pulled pork. Overall a pretty decent place for meat lovers. Raw onions and BBQ sauce are AYCE. This be my third time ordering here over the past 2 years driving cross country. Overall a solid stop for a fast casual eatery with Southern flare. Shout-out to the young Southern gentleman with the slick back haircut serving everyone.
