What a great experience!!! 15 racks of ribs, a whole dish of smoked chicken, and a whole dish of baked beans. Woodpile rolled in hot food and set it up on our table, and it was awesome!

Everyone happily noshing on huge portions at a reasonable price. The brisket is the best of the bunch. Smoky, tender and even juicy. I could eat this brisket all damn day. No need for sauce but the sauce was nice. The ribs were meaty St. Louis cut. Big and lean. Nice clean bite, no tug. The meat really got a good kiss of smoke, so again no need for sauce but sauce still available and tasty. The pulled pork was good. Bark in the mix, which is always a treat. Not mushy a bit but not stringy either. This one is better with sauce imo so you may want to ask for extra. The mac and cheese is the only clunker here. I am not a huge Mac and cheese person but when I like it, I love it. This was meh. Bland. It comes with a plate but I wish there were other options. Any other option. I saved the cornbread for last. The best damn cornbread I've ever had. Period. OMG. This was the happiest surprise. Moist, a bit sweet and just melt in your mouth pure damn delightful. I will seek this truck out. If you see it, you must try it!

I was excited to go back to Lockhart's, as I'd had quite a positive experience previously, so when…read moreour family was looking for a place to meet, I chose it from a list of other options. We had reservation for 8 people at 6:00 on a Sunday night. Our table wasn't ready, perhaps because of a concert going on at the park across the street; The staff seemed pretty focused on the carry-out orders. We waited about 10 minutes for our table to be ready. Everyone got combinations of some sort. I ordered brisket ($2 upcharge) and ribs, the Loretta salad (upcharge of $3 for their house salad!) and garlic mashed potatoes. It took quite a while to be served, again, probably because of the concert. My salad came out first. Despite the fact that it had lettuce, cabbage and parmesan cheese, it had absolutely no flavor. Zero. I couldn't even make out the taste of the oil & vinegar. All it was was crunch. Our entrees were served in two batches, with about 5-10 minutes between the first group and the second group. Honestly, don't restaurants know that they're supposed to serve everyone at the same time? It's annoying and unprofessional when they stagger it. I was really looking forward to the ribs. Alas, they were way too salty, even with scraping them off and pouring sauce on them. Likewise, the garlic mashed potatoes were both too salty AND too garlicky. The only thing that I thought WAS good was the brisket. And the bread -- that was supposed to come with the meals but which we had to ask for -- was somehow satisfying, even though it was just packaged white bread. (The waiter said that most people don't like it so he doesn't bother to bring it.) Maybe it tasted good in comparison to all of the salty stuff. Sadly, I was very disappointed, and I can't see myself going back.

The greens were decent. My son drove an hr away to meet me and we were both left disappointed.

Yes, cooking over charcoal does sometimes create that bark on one side of the meat but i love it. This place has had me in a chokehold for the past month, with me driving 30 mins each way to eat. I love it. I am a large end kind of guy and this place is the best i've had with only Vicky's coming in second. Once, the ribs were fatty but i doin't care. Every other time, they were delicious. Regarding the sides... This is where most BBQ joints struggle. The Coleslaw and potato salad are either off a Sysco truck or similar to Kroger prepared food. The green beans kind of remind me of the green beans you'd get if the church had a bbq dinner sale... not bad. The baked beans... not the best. When i order, i usually have some macaroni made at home and i always have a bag of cooked greens in the freezer. I live solo so i will make food, freeze it and have it along side their meat. I did not like the greens there but the potato salad and slaw, for what it is; unless you're going to be making it... boiling and peeling potatoes...dicing celery and belle pepper, this works :) I love this place AND the girls working are always EXTREMEMLY friendly. I always tip them- even though they never seem to expect it. I love this place and pray they never change.
