    The smokiest bar I've ever been in the area. As part of our adventure this is one of the newer place we haven't checked out. It is located on 78 in Sachse. Looks like they have live music here every weekend. It would be a great hangout spot if it wasn't for smoking, a lot of smoking.

    My burger after we opened it up.

    Waitresses couldn't care less if you are here. Maybe it's self-serve? Lol. First time here, last time here. Don't bother. Update: We finally were waited on, ordered burgers and halfway through mine I noticed it was completely raw hamburger meat. That was disgusting! However, the manager handled it very well and paid for our complete tab the entire evening.

    Chicken-fried brisket is the star of the show here, and it's every bit as legendary as the hype…read moresuggests. I went specifically for their signature dish (the one they proudly call themselves the "Home of the Chicken Fried Brisket"), and it delivered exactly what everyone raves about. They take a thick, oak-smoked brisket slice--already juicy, tender, and loaded with smoky flavor and perfect bark--then coat it in a craft-beer batter and fry it up. The crust comes out shatter-crisp and golden, never greasy or soggy, while the brisket inside stays beefy and moist. That peppery burnt-end gravy poured over the top is rich, savory, and ties everything together beautifully with a scoop of skin-on mashed potatoes on the side. It's pure Texas comfort food genius--smoky BBQ meets Southern fried steak in the best possible way. I'd order it again in a heartbeat (it's a Tuesday special or weekend brunch treat, so plan accordingly). The rest of the BBQ holds up just as strong. Their regular brisket (flat and point) is consistently juicy, tender, and smoky with that killer bark everyone mentions. Sides and other meats are solid too--no weak links. The house beers are fantastic and pair perfectly with the rich, smoky food (the rustic, woodsy vibe in the historic downtown Garland spot makes it even better for lingering over a pint). Service is friendly and the whole place just feels welcoming. If you're in Garland or nearby and love bold Texas BBQ with a creative twist, Intrinsic is a must. The chicken-fried brisket alone is worth the trip--don't sleep on it! Highly recommend for anyone who wants great smoked meats, great beer, and something uniquely delicious

    I drive 4 miles in hopes of food with no hassle. It's empty with only a few in line. I ask for…read moremy order and the young lady checks the order and i trusted her and went home with the order. 4 miles back home. Nope, I'm missing half the order and I had to wait when I came back. Meanwhile I was given looks by the 2 girls up front as if I was lying. They refunded me but that's 16 miles for this, i might as well went to soulmans for this hassle. Now it's almost an hour after my original order and I'm still waiting on a corn dog. I guess I'm done here after this, I always order for the family. I don't care for the food taste now since it's been an hour waiting and I still gotta drive home to cold food. Thanks. Edit: I paid for extra buns, they were useless when I got home. That's Stolen 2$ Baked potato was not finished and still chunky when attempted to mix everything. 8$ for undercooked potato. On top of all that, you will NOT get BBq sauce at all. I will not pay for it, ANY "bbq joint" worth their salt has bbq sauce, but not even 1 cup? I try to support local and I've been here more than a few times with family order each time. That's done for, I'm going to Soulmans from now on. Waste your time and money if you want, I'm gonna be smart.
