Amazing food, service and cozy setting. Would recommend to anyone. Macaroni and cheese is to die for

This is my second review for this place, and they still never miss a beat! Every time I come here, the staff is super friendly, the restaurant is extremely clean, and the food is always fresh. You truly get the best bang for your buck for some of the best barbecue in town. A+ and 10/10 every single time. I've never had a bad experience, and I've been eating here for 8 years! read more

I downloaded Yelp again just to warn people not to waste their money. We do BBQ on Fridays for date night and like to give places around town a chance and this was by far the worst. My boyfriend got the three meat plate and all three meats were awful.i got the turkey and that was the only moist meat in the mix. read more

Not the best BBQ but my husband loved his beef ribs. The heart attack potatoes were INSANE! Very clean inside, and staff was friendly and fast. read more

This was our first actual visit and everything including the friendly service was spectacular. My wife enjoyed a fully loaded baked tater with chopped bbq brisket, it was done up right...i tried a couple bites. I went well with the three meat plate with two sides I ordered. The moist end brisket was really tender and full of flavor, the Prasek's cheese and jalapeno sausage was super good, just the right amount of heat. I knew it was Prasek's because their truck and trailer was making a delivery.....good stuff! The third meat was some tender and tasty pork ribs. The beans were flavorful and the fried okra was made fresh while we started on everything else. Needless to say...we have lots of great leftovers for our evening meal. We'll be back for more goodies. read more

My friends and I spent the weekend in Houston, the birthplace of my queen, Beyoncé. BBQ is imperative during a trip in Houston, so we enjoyed this delicious spread at Stockyard BBQ. We went with the Ribs, Brisket, Smoked Chicken, and Pork & Beef Jalapeño Sausage and my favorite was the Brisket, which was so tender and flavorful. Their best side was undoubtedly the Mac & Cheese. read more

This was bad. I ordered them for lunch delivery and am extremely disappointed. The brisket had no flavor except smoke and the fatty parts were nasty. The jalapeño cheese sausage also tasted like smoke and the cheese was hard. The Mac and cheese was more like a boxed cheesy sauce and just ok. The potato salad was actually good but so runny for some reason. I enjoyed the bread and the bbq sauce. I've had smoked meats before but this is the first time everything tasted like just smoke and now I have a lasting taste in my mouth. read more

After driving past this place for years now, I finally decided to try them since a coworker I had said they were great. I agree too. I came in this afternoon for the first time ever ordering 1/2 lb of Lean Brisket with spicy bbq sauce and a side of dirty rice. Everything was very delicious, juicy and made with great care. The brisket was very smoky, very nicely seasoned, very beefy and fall apart tender. The bark was great and each bite was consistent. 95% of the brisket on my plate was juicy. The bbq sauce was nicely spicy, a little sweet and a little tart with a solid tomato base holding ideal thickness in texture. I personally don't usually like runny n really sour vinegar or mustard base sauces with bbq. The dirty rice was simple but great, meaty, a bit fatty, moist and just an addictive side dish on its own or with a protein dish. The service was very welcoming, friendly and hospitable with great efficiency from both gentlemen I came across. I plan to also purchase the beef ribs, another side dish and a dessert in the future. read more

Where do I begin... I ordered a 3 meat and 2 meat combo and a loaded spud with chicken via door dash the food was great even after being warmed up the next day . My family is from Los Angeles and we have had good bar b que but THIS was absolutely amazing and I am hard to impress.

First time coming and I'm glad I got to finally try this cool looking Bar-B-Q spot (always wondered what this old school saloon looking restaurant had in store). A little sad that there was no access to the balcony area and actually it was surprisingly small and limited in seating (I think maybe like 6-7 tables total?). FOOD: Husband got the Texas loaded spud which literally had all the protein you'd want and was as big as Texas. Pretty sure it was like 1500 calories just by looking at it but it was pretty tasty! I loooooove pickles and they had the ones that are perfect with Bar-B-Q so if you're a pickle connoisseur like I, you know how important these make or break a meal. I got the one meat (brisket of course) and two sides (Mac and cheese and veggie pinto beans). Veggie pinto beans pretty much means it didn't have any meat in it which was fine. I didn't realize I difference in the beans until my diabetic husband called out how sweet they were once he took a bite. Then my brother in law said the same thing sooo if you don't like sweet beans then, I'd skip on this. MAC AND CHEESE WAS AMAZING! Peppery, cheesyyyyy, and creamy. Just as good as Pappas. Service was super fast since there was no line. They also spoke Spanish which was nice for the in-laws. Cost for 9 people was under $200 (about $166) so not bad! read more

Sorry, not a fan. Food was just meh. Pork ribs tasted like only spice was salt, and way too salty. Brisket was meh, fall apart tender, which I don't prefer. I like to sink my teeth into it and chew. 3 ribs and little bigger portion of brisket. The BBQ sauce was watery and un-appealing. Smoke was an indistinct flavor I didn't recognize or could even guess what wood. Mac & Cheese, meh, watery. I had two bites out of a large portion. French Fries. I had a few. Little flavor. I have much better Texas BBQ in my town in California. $20.99 for 2 meats and 2 sides. I would try somewhere else. read more

Food: 3 stars Service: 5 stars Online ordering: 2 stars BBQ sauce: 4 stars Was in town and was looking for a BBQ restaurant for the 4th of July. We originally went to Triple Js. However, after waiting in line for 45 minutes, they sold out mostly what we wanted to eat (chicken, ribs, and brisket) Stockyard had good reviews, so we decided to go there. We decided to order online so we wouldn't have a long wait. Went through the online service, but I did not know we had to create an account. I felt the food was okay. There were 9 of us, so we ordered the following: Bake potatoe with brisket: it was okay, nothing special.. Bake potatoes with chicken: nothing special, I can make this at home Dinner plate with chicken, Mac and cheese, and fried Okra: the chicken, nothing special, not a lot of flavor, the Mac and cheese; was okay, I had better. I had to add salt and pepper. The fried okra was a little salty, but good.. Chicken sliders with fries: chicken bland , the fries were good.. 2 dinner plates with ribs, sausage, brisket, potato salad, and beans. The ribs were good, potato salad was not good bland with too many clumps, thr beans they taste like the can. We ordered dessert: pecan pie and banana pudding. The banana pudding was too sweet. We did not try the pecan pie. I would not return. This was a one and done for me.. read more

One of the few BBQ spots in Houston open past 9 pm. We headed here since we were hungry and it was late. They still had a selection so we went with the 2 meat platter with brisket, pork ribs, heart attack potatoes, and mac & cheese. My DH's cousin went with the brisket sandwich. Solid choices all around. The BBQ was good but it definitely needed sauce and it hit the spot. Service was good and there was no line. There is parking in the small lot and it just happened to be down the street from my DH's grandparents' old street. Would we get it again? Probably not, I think there are plenty of choices around Houston to try the next time we are in town. read more

I tried this place with a friend for the first time after driving past it for years! It was so tasty and has a huge menu. The brisket sandwich was served on bakery buns. It was a really nice size. I also got fried okra. That was the best I've had in so long! Even though we were full, my friend decided she was going to get the banana pudding and insisted I help her eat it. Oh my was it delicious! I can't recommend this place enough! read more

Took my dad here when he came to visit me in Houston for his first time because you can't NOT try Texas BBQ! The night was getting pretty late though so I'm happy that this bbq spot stayed open later than most. Everything was pretty direct when you walked in--we were greeted by friendly faces and were asked what meats and sides we wanted right away. We went for the pork belly, sausage, and brisket duh! The sides we chose were the potato's, Mac and cheese, and Spanish rice. The inside gave a cabin, warm feeling and there were TVs with the game on. The food was Smokey and hefty! The potato side was a nice comfort food touch too. I'm happy that my dad and sister enjoyed :) read more

Probably one of the best local BBQ spots on Westheimer near the Galleria I've been to. I definitely enjoyed the Brisket with their spicy BBQ sauce along with their Potato Salad and Mac N Cheese which always goes great with Brisket. It was our first time with a good friend of mine that was visiting from out of town. The manager invited us to dessert and we got the banana pudding and it definitely hit the spot. If I'm by the Galleria and I'm digging BBQ for lunch or dinner. I will be back at Stockyards again. I highly recommend this spot to anyone who hasn't been. read more

We ordered a 3 meat w/ 2 side platter (brisket, pork belly, jalapeño cheese sausage) and a 2 meat w/ 2 side platter (pulled pork, pork belly). We both had fried okra and mac & cheese as our sides. The service was quick and pleasant. We went at about 7pm on a Saturday and there were plenty of tables available for us to pick our own spot. The ambiance overall was welcoming and casual. I loved everything about our experience, the only negative note from my husband was that he felt his brisket was a little dry and could've had more bark. We both loved the sides, the mac feels homemade and the fried okra is absolutely perfect with a side ranch or on its own. The price for everything was reasonable and the portions were generous, we were able to take a lot of food home with us. read more

Backstory behind me coming here: I went on a long bike ride and skipped breakfast and lunch. So of course I was dying for food. BBQ had been on my mind thanks to my YouTube recommendations (don't judge). Since this place was on the way home, I called in a takeout order of the 3 meat platter (brisket, sausage, ribs, potato salad, Mac n cheese), an order of smoked wings, and pecan pie. After pick up, I dashed home to make everything presentable and started digging in. I had a mix of good and meh. The good was the ribs, sausage, potato salad, and pie. Loved the flavor of the ribs especially after drizzling some sauce on top (I heard Texas frowns at sauce. Well I don't GAF, I'm using it). Sausage was jalapeño flavored with a smoky touch, just the way I like it. Potato salad has good consistency and that pecan pie made me want to keep chewing since it was amazing. Meh was the brisket and Mac and cheese. The brisket was a bit tough and Mac and cheese could've used more seasoning. As for the wings, it had a super soft texture which tasted mushy although the smoke flavor was there so they washed out. I still had leftovers the next day. I think the flavors might've been lost on some items due to the drive home. Next time I will eat in the establishment if COVID doesn't interfere. While it's not the best BBQ around, it's definitely serviceable and better than other spots you'll find. read more

Miguel and his are were very friendly and have extensive experience in what it takes to make a fine Texas Smokehouse. The tender sliced brisket with the right amount of smoke, then topping off with a touch of their spicy BBQ sauce and picked red onions hit the spot! I had the twice-baked Heart Attach Potato casserole side that has enough flavor to compliment their meats or stand alone as a premeal snack. But the unexpected kicker was their signature smoked pork belly! So rich in flavor with the outer layer perfectly caramelized. It was mouthwateringly juicy, tender, and just practically melted in mouth. The Stockyard Bar-BQ has definitely moved into my top 5 smokehouse restaurants in the Houston Metro area. Joel C.

Old school looking with a lot of tradition, but definitely some good quality barbecue. For myself, I decided to go with a split of 2 meats...brisket & ribs Please!!. I'm still adjusting to how many barbecue places portion things out but thankfully stockyards put out what I thought was a perfect amount of meat with each of my requests. Decided to go with the loaded baked potato "mix" that was pretty good & the collard greens were as expected... a little bit better than average. Also decided to get the beef ribs. WOW, these jokers are expensive @ $30 & you only get 3 Ribs with no sides... a little disappointed with them only because it's more like a Brontosaurus Rib but not a lot of meat & flavor as I expected. Sitting inside or outside is an option and the crew working behind the counter is super friendly. Depending on where you're located, I felt that this was a great decision for some barbecue. Thanx Yelpers!!! read more

I'm skeptical to write this review because I don't want a good thing to go bad. A girl from a small town in east Texas, all I know is smoked meat. Stockyard has come thru 2wice. This is the only bbq joint in Houston I have ordered, tried and been speechless, but not broke from ordering lol. You can taste the smoke in every bite even the sausage wow. The portions are insane, I could go on and on. The only and honestly slight negative but win for me is the the first go I ordered the whole chicken, and it wasn't cooked to my liking (a little pink) but to be honest I dipped it in their bbq sauce provided and the next day tore it down. If you want smoked meat not bbq there's a difference, you have to try Stockyard sorry. Oh and the sides cabbage a little to sweet but still good, the potato salad was great and to my liking with the egg, and chunky from the onions and celery, the look gives pasta salad but you are in for a wonderful surprise. Collards bomb, and the heart attack potato( it's in the name ) Great food ! read more

I had stockyard tonight for the first time and it was boooomb! I got two, two meat, 2 side plates. One was sweet wet ribs and brisket with heart attack potatoes and Mac and cheese. The ribs were tender and flavorful, I asked for a more lean part of the brisket and that was no problem. Both sides were good but I'd switch out the potatoes for something else next time, mac and cheese was great. The second plate was smoked turkey and brisket with the HA potatoes and fried okra. The okra was friend to order and super crispy! The service was awesome as well, the employees were friendly and accommodating. Zero complaints, I will definitely be back! read more

We had bbq from here for a work lunch. It was the family size meal for 6, which meant we could try a good amount of items. There was turkey, sausage, and brisket for the meats with the western beans, dirty rice, and heart attack potatoes for sides. I think it was certainly edible bbq, but nowhere near being a place I'd recommend given the strong bbq scene in Houston. The best items to me were the brisket (it was done pretty decently, and we had a mix of both lean and fatty), along with the heart attack potatoes. The potatoes are excellent, kind of like a dry potato salad (as in, not mayo-y), with lots of flavor. My coworkers enjoyed the sausage and most of the other items. I would say the "turkey" was definitely sub-par though and I'm not entirely sure it wasn't their sliced chicken breast since it was sliced similarly to what you'd typically see. Maybe there are better things to try on the menu (the wings?), but there are also lots of other places for great bbq in Houston. read more
