This may very well be the best bbq in the entirety of the Hudson Valley. Seriously. The Wrangler Pie stands as my favorite, followed closely by the ribs. read more

Okay, I'm weird. I love BBQ, but don't like barbecue sauce. I love hot and spicy, but don't like peppers. All that aside, given that I order weirdly when I eat barbecue, here's what I can say: RIBS. Ribs, ribs, ribs. I didn't add any sauce (see above), but they don't need it! The chicken is also flavorful, but I think it got a little dry (this is on me; I did take out instead of eating there), so would definitely recommend using sauce with that. I didn't have the brisket yet, but others in my family have had it and really liked it. LOVE their corn bread. Their potato salad is different from any other I've had; it took me a minute and then grew on me. The mac 'n cheese is kind of like if you've ever been in the south and had pimento cheese sandwiches, but melted and poured over macaroni. Everything has a kick, which I really appreciated it -- enough to get me to pay attention, but not so much as to be unpleasant. Definitely plan on returning -- folks are super nice there, too. read more

Round Up TX BBQ - Brisket & Ribs - Barbeque Near Me - Cold Spring, New York

The closest you'll get to Texas BBQ, without a plane ticket. Fall off the bone ribs, sweet and hot sausage, juicy chicken, plenty of sides, it goes on. There's a nice smoky flavor that permeates the meats. The BBQ sauce has a little sweetness and later you have pleasant tingle of piquancy on your lips. You wish you could eat more; even when you're satiated. Maybe, your doctor might not approve of it daily, but now and then it's just what you need. Especially, if you've been cooped up and now that the weather is getting better; to sit outside under an umbrella, BBQ sauce dripping off your fingers delicious BBQ'd meats and a couple of sides. It's what the doctor ordered, to help keep your sanity. read more

Ordered delivery. The ribs and brisket were alright, but I found a penny in my French fries after eating half of them. WTF?

Great find and a delish spot on a beautiful spring day. At the end of our meal nothing but bones and napkins were left behind. We ordered some meal combo lean brisket + spicy sausage & marbled brisket + regular sausages. Really didn't have a preference, loved both styles. Also had some fries, potatoes on the side. Nothing extraordinary but complimented the meat dishes well. Would have rounded this up to 5 stars if they actually had the prominently advertised Shiner Bocks, a Texan beer institution. I had my mouth watering expecting this and was disappointed they had ran out. Guess just need to come by again next time! P.S. this spot has ample of spread out tables for the COVID conscious! read more

Some of the worst bbq I've had in a long while. Sausage dry and over smoked like l links of charcoal. Brisket was heavily smoked as well but lacking flavor. Have a look at the photos and compare them to your favorite bbq place, blackened vs browned, carbonized vs smoked. Wanted to like the place, but the food literally made me ill. Had to toss half of what I bought. Nice people behind the counter. Sorry to post a negative review, but it just wasn't good. read more

Round Up Texas BBQ may not be much from the outside, but the food is a hidden delight. The spicy mac and cheese and fried okra are standout items that you don't want to miss. Don't let appearances deceive you; this spot knows how to deliver amazing flavors. The perfect place to go with family and friends. read more

Visited this establishment yesterday after a morning of fishing with best friend Pots & Pans AKA Mud Magnet (full disclosure, I caught 2 pickerel and a bass; he got SKUNKED). We fished and swam in Canopus Lake...very refreshing. Anyway, Round Up Texas BBQ is right on Rte 9, minutes from downtown Cold Spring. We both ordered the brisket sandwich, and I also ordered the friend okra. P&P also ordered spicy sausage (which we shared) and corn bread. Prices were very reasonable, and the menu very diverse. We both thoroughly enjoyed the brisket...very tender and moist, and the sausage, which had a kick to it. The fried okra was really pieces of battered okra deep-fried. Definitely interesting. He raved about the cb. Both our trays came with a small cup of tangy sauce. There was both indoor and outdoor seating. We opted to eat outside on a beautiful day. There was a pretty steady crowd as well. All-in-all, a very good experience, and I recommend this unpretentious place. read more

Very disappointed with the brisket did not taste as if it was smoked it taste as if it were cooked with propane gas waste of time and money to be honest, the sides weren't even that good much better places to go like Holy Smoke in Mahopac read more

The lean brisket fell apart as it should and was an easy chew. The rib meat fell off the bone and had no pull at all. Great rub! The chicken also fell of the bone and the skin was crisp, but not burnt. Mac and cheese had a spicy kick to it, Cole slaw had great flavor, but was not sweet or creamy - awesome. The beans were soupy, but had enough to satisfy and a nice bold flavor. The only thing missing is a creamed corn side! The sauce was good, but could have used a little more kick - mild and spicy versions should be available. They don't give enough sauce with the takeout: two containers should be standard for the three meat combo. They only provide takeout right now, but the indoor seating area reminds me of a smaller version of a cross between Rudy's and Salt Lick. The aroma and decor were the same and they even serve Shiner Bock!!! Hopefully they will enforce mask usage. Half of the people on line while I was there were not wearing masks. I will definitely be going back. A lot. read more

Best place for bbq upstate! Small hole in the wall environment. But awesome staff and great food! Outdoor seating is available on nice days. They have really good Dino bones. The owner is pretty a awesome too. I remember him coming around the tables to see how things are and is extremely friendly. read more

We four out-of-towners and BBQ lovers sat ourselves at Round Up's wooden outdoor picnic tables around 5:30 PM on an October day. A small birthday party was going on with a bouncy castle and a half a dozen adults hanging out drinking Buds. The tables were covered with food crumbs. We got the feeling this place was not meant for city slickers like us. Before we could get settled, dark and stormy weather set in and we moved inside. To be honest, it's really cool inside. Reminded me of the old West. Very very rustic. Old pictures on the walls. Wooden tables. I'm pretty sure there was a poster of John Wayne. No one else was there and it seemed dingy, but maybe that was just the dark weather outside casting shadows. Together, we ordered a variety of meats (I ate ribs and brisket) plus mac n cheese and cole slaw. And some beer. They were out of the ranch style beans and a few other items, which was a shame. The guy behind the counter seemed like he couldn't wait for the day to be over. The ribs were a bit dry. The brisket was okay but not the best ever. The mac n cheese was mushy. Maybe it was slow day and the food was sitting around...? I was expecting better based on other Yelp reviews. read more

Round Up TX BBQ - Decor - Barbeque Near Me - Cold Spring, New York

I have driven past this spot hundreds of times if not thousands of times. I was always hesitant to stop because it rarely ever looks busy. If it wasn't for their big bright "open" sign I personally wouldn't even know if it was legit. So after years of hesitation on a cold winter Friday evening I saw that big open sign lit up and decided to give it a go. Upon entering I saw immediate why it never looks busy. It's more of a take out joint then a sit down place. They do have plenty of picnic tables to sit at but I don't even think there is a bathroom for customers to use. As for th Texas BBQ. It's delicious. The sides are delicious. The portions are a good size. Not much more to say. While we were in there they had numerous take out orders. It seemed the lady working the counter knew every customer that came in and out as if they were all regulars for years. Is it the best Texas BBQ in all of the Hudson Valley? No. But is it worth stopping at if you are driving by and looking for a a legit solid meal from a local small business? "You best" said in a most heavy Texas accent! read more

Holy Smokes! - Honest to G-d - I actually didn't have the opportunity to visit. Nevertheless - "Uncle Mark" was traveling through these parts and stumbled upon this place. He brought home 1lb of BBQ Brisket and some Corned Bread - OMG / OMG - Truly incredible! Literally falls apart and melts in your mouth! - I'm going to have to take Andrea up to this place and try it for myself - "In Person" - A+ read more

I have been coming here since the beginning. I was a local and have now moved a bit farther away. I try to get here as often as I can, and sometimes that is only once a year. Things have changed. The BBQ sauce on the side tastes like store bought when it used to be clearly made in house. The potato salad which was always a standout, now also tastes store bought. The ribs while cooked nicely also taste different. They seem way saltier when they used to be very peppery, smoky, and savory. I'm not sure what's going on there, but I wish it would go back to what it was 15 years ago. I had not been there in a spell, and from my experience assumed they had sold to new owners, but they hadn't - same owners. Don't get me wrong. It's not bad. It's just not special anymore. I will try other sides as well next time. If the cornbread isn't the best you've ever had, then I fear that has changed as well. read more

Due to COVID, traveling and visiting restaurants have been something hard to come by. This is a rare gem of a space with plenty off outdoor space and vaccinated worker and employer. I am glad to find this place out of a random search for burger. We end up getting Texas bbq instead which is much better Our hiking spot is about 5 minutes drive from this place and it was easy to find off the route. Just be careful coming down the road because sherif is parked nearby for speeders. So don't drive too fast for you hungry folks. We came on a Sunday afternoon and there are 75% empty benches outdoor. Parking is not an issue except for those having decision problem because there are so many. To the food!! We got two combo due to decision issue and fries and potato salad. Combo has a mix of short rib, sausages and brisket. Portion is a small but great for the waist line right!!! Brisket is a little dry but it's decent enough. Right is top of the line. This place can sold out of stuff so be patient. We walk away pretty full after this order. Price is reasonable. I love the wood bench and paper towel. Sorry we ate all the food too fast to take some pictures. read more

This is the best barbecue I have ever had. The ribs are amazing, they meat just falls off the bone, the brisket is gorgeous, so tender and all the fat and gristle and chewiness melted away in the smoker for 20 HOURS!!! I know because I asked Brisket Bill, the owner and smoker of said meats and I was in the smoker room, I saw the magic happen. Also: best homemade Mac'n'cheese I have EVER tasted, sorry Mom. Most delicious smoked, zingy, not sweet barbecue sauce, and the fried cornbread, um, how to describe? I had a funnel cake once and I thought they nailed it but this took the cake, almost literally. Soooo good, will not disappoint, this is the spot... 2741 US-9, Cold Spring, NY 10516 I can't wait to go back, I'm nervous that all other barbecue will no longer satisfy my cravings!!! read more

Recommended by Andrew who's been there plenty of times, We came in and right off the back you have a Texas feel with hung up bulls and Texas flags and benches to sit it has a very humble surrounding you can also come with your family or a group of friends on a weekend afternoon to eat outside and enjoy the brisket, ribs and sausage, its soooo delicious!!!!!! also the side corn bread is super tasty and it goes perfect with the coleslaw and fries. The owner was welcoming and friendly you'll like him right away. I dont normally go for the fancy dining and picture perfect food this is my kind of meal. We'll be back soon. read more

This is the perfect time to say "don't judge a book by its cover" Driving past here I thought OH NOOO I won't ever eat there. Looks old, dirty and run down from the outside. Well let's just say luckily for me my husband made me try this place and now I'm hooked!! BEST BRISKET IN THE STATE OF NY! Sooo much flavor and cooked to perfection. The cook was super nice and made us feel right at home. We will definitely be going back! read more

Round Up TX BBQ - Brisket, ribs, corn bread, & beans - Barbeque Near Me - Cold Spring, New York

I dig beef ribs! I dig great beefy beef ribs! Round Up TX BBQ does a great beef rib which I order every time I visit. One rib is basically all you need with a few of their great sides. The fried green beans with the fried cornbread completes my meal every time. The fried green beans are nice and aren't really salty. The fried cornbread is something I've never seen elsewhere but soooo good. With a dash of sugar on top, this is a great dessert. Definitely after the beef rib, the must get has to be this fried cornbread. Finally get some of their pork ribs which are awesome as well. The only reason why I don't get the pork ribs first is because I rarely come across a beef rib as great as the one they do here. The decor is seriously rustic, the tables/wooden benches are first come, first served, both indoors and out. You have to order your food and pickup when it is ready. You also bus your own tables. If it is seriously hot outside, the inside isn't much better, the AC in the dining area isn't very powerful. The bathrooms are outside the dining area and perhaps needs a makeover. read more

This is the prime example of don't judge a joint by it's exterior. I cannot tell you how many people have mentioned how this place looks sketchy or biker vibe from the outside, but when I hear that, I am always telling them to give it a chance. Truth is, it's a prime hidden gem. The food menu has expanded as has the seating inside and out. Sure a lot of bikers frequent here, but let me tell you, most of them are the friendliest, most respectful individuals I have ever met. The food is slamming, its great for the whole family, lots of choices and even beers to grab too. I HIGHLY recommend and I seriously need to get myself back here ASAP read more

This place is no frills. Picnic tables or eat outside. Order at the window and listen for your name to be called. But, it was delicious! I had chili cheese fries and a brisket sandwich. Both were really good. It was very busy with a constant influx of people which left seating at a premium. If theres an open table grab it and let someone order for you. I cant wait to go back and try another meal. Only thing that prevented a 5th star is the price. The food was great, but a bit overpriced in my opinion. I do like that they have napkins and rolls of paper towels at every table. All in all, I will be back when I drive over that way again... read more

4 stars, decent bbq. had a hankering for a few days for some bbq, knew i was going to be traveling to the area and had driven past a few times recently, today was the day. very road house-esque if you picking up what im putting down. lots of selections, but they were out of many things. one issue i have is deciding on what to get and usually i suck it up and get the sampler, not today. they had a lunch special, chopped brisket and a side. by the window it said 5.99, but they also had it down as 6.99, i wasnt going to start something over a buck, but they also do the thing (only in new york, lucky me) where they charge more for using a credit card, 3%. now this isnt breaking my bank, but really? isnt it nice to know as a business you gain sales by accepting credit cards? sure, i get it, those companies charge you, but you also gain sales too. should i also be paying you mortgage? oh, i know i am when i buy food, but ITS FACTORED INTO THE COST! do this instead, dont tell me its a 3% gig, just add it into the cost for everyone, ok, thanks! rant over, nothing against texas bbq for doing this, but im po'ed when a place does this, so im going to vent. see, i didnt deduct points for this, just saying. oh, so in close, good smoke, bad idea trying to eat this and drive, but thats what knees are for (and a fork!) read more

No frilled BBQ place near Cold Spring. And the bill was only $13 each for 7 people. Full rack of ribs: dry rub was full of spices and it's nicely burned. The meat was moist and marbled Brisket (marbled): these were disappointing. They were dry and bland. Dozen wings: the best dish of the night. Crispy skin and dry rub that were addictive Mac & cheese: nothing to write home about Cole slaw: standard stuff Tl;Dr order the wings and ribs. Skip the brisket. read more

This barbecue is an emotional experience. It is one of the best brisket and ribs that I've ever had. After a long hike and looking up a yelp review, I decided to give this place a try. Now, I can no longer think of another place that I want to go to. This is a barbecue Mecca. It's a Michelin star worthy brisket. As a man who has smoked many meats, eaten everything under the sun, this place brought a new sense of amazement for what food can be. read more

We had lunch here after a morning hike at Hudson Highlands State Park. The place does not look like much but the foods were incredible. We ordered 1/2 lb of brisket (marble), 1/2 rack of ribs, a pulled chicken sandwich, a side order of potato salad and one corn bread to share between the 2 of us. We are bjg eaters. The meats were done to perfection. Sauces were provided on the side so we could control how much would go on the meats. Although the place is far from fancy, the service was great. You order inside and pick up outside. There were plenty of picnic tables for outdoor dining. The man who called out my name to pick up the order sounded terrifying but he was actually a sweetheart. He came out and offered a small plate of brisket for our dog. Another man, presumably the owner or manager, came out to ask how our foods were. A port-a-potty outside for customer use was the only downside. But overall this was a great place to visit! read more

If you love Texas BBQ it's the place to be! This place serves some delicious brisket and ribs. The meat is fall off bone and melts in your mouth. It came with some bbq sauce which I did not use since the meat itself was very flavorful. We also got the macaroni and cheese which was delicious and had a spicy kick to it. I got another container to go. They have picnic seats outside and a cute American flag on each table. I would definitely recommend this place if you are ever in Hudson valley! read more

Best BBQ on the north east hands down. The meats are so tender they fall right off the bone. The brisket is my absolute favorite followed by the ribs. Sides are ok but the cornbread is excellent. The place could use a facelift but you don't go for the decor lol. when you make food that good it is what it is. I highly recommend this place if your looking for real authentic and delicious bbq food. read more

First-time visit. We thoroughly enjoyed Round Up Texas Smoked BBQ, and plan to return. Located just south of Route 301 on Route 9. Open daily, lunch and dinner, except Mondays. As others have said, ignore the lack of décor, outside and in. Chose 1/2lbs of marbled Brisket with two sides of your choosing, and a Brisket Sandwich, plus cornbread and a fine brewski from Captain Lawrence. All excellent. Wine also offered. Bill, the owner, welcomed us personally. Next visit will sample the Dino ribs at Bill's recommendation. Meats smoked on premises. Small Gripes: No draught beer, and gravel parking lot that could be sloppy in bad weather. Bill said they have plans to build an adjoining bar. Best wishes. Alert: 3-4 miles/10 mins east of downtown Cold Spring. read more
