Brisket was good, macaroni was ok I guess. I paid 15 bucks for 5 dollars worth of food. The recession isn't that bad! Is it?

RnC BBQ - 3 Meat plate with potato salad & corn

First time trying RNC BBQ -- I've done the Victoria BBQ circuit (Mumford's, Uncle Mutt's, etc.), so…read moreI had to see what all the talk was about. Everyone kept saying "get the loaded potato," but I went for the three-meat plate instead: brisket, sausage, and ribs with potato salad and green beans. The food? Huge portions, fresh, and hot -- you're not leaving hungry. The sausage? Absolute standout. Best I've had in Victoria from a BBQ joint since Mumford's. Brisket was solid, ribs were good, sides hit the comfort zone. If Mumford's is the refined classic and Uncle Mutt's is the hometown hug, RNC is the solid weekend warrior -- generous, smoky, and worth the repeat. I'll definitely be back, maybe next time for that famous potato. Final verdict: 4 out of 5 -- strong showing, great sausage, and good vibes.

My daughter decided last minute that she wanted a food truck for her graduation party we hosted at…read morethe lake. We contacted RnC and they had availability for our date. After discussing options, we offered the brisket nachos and bbq brisket sandwiches. They were accommodating to some of condiment requests that they don't normally offer as well. The day of the party, they arrived and went straight to work taking everyone's orders. The workers were friendly and efficient, and the food was top tier. We had plenty of compliments on the food and my girly was happy.

Not our first choice after reading reviews but glad we found it. The Limon's Corral place was it…read morebut they were out of ribs of a Friday evening. We got the Uncle Mutt's 3 meat and a half rack of ribs. Green beans and the potatoes were the sides of choice. We always feel when in Texas, BBQ "WILL" be on the dining playlist. I mean really, it's Texas ! So we ordered the ribs, sausage, and chopped beef. Ribs are always our go to meat and the standard. The ribs surpassed the standard. The sausage was also excellent. Sometimes the sausage at BBQ restaurants is just blah. We wanted some pulled pork but are starting to feel pork butt just isn't on the menu down here. For our third meat we got chopped beef. It was mixed with some kind of sauce. This was the only thing that disappointed us. Just had that funny taste as described in previous post. I even slopped some on a slice of bread with lots of sauce and that didn't help. So wrapping the meats up, ribs two thumbs up. Sausage two thumbs up. Chopped beef two thumbs down. But hey, you might love it. Forgot about the sliced brisket. Yum. Tender and juicy and able to be cut with my plastic spoon. Nice flavor and a pretty smoke ring. Sauce and sides; potatoes were good according to my wife and she likes here taters. She also had green beans which she said were great. But hey, they had bacon in them! How can you go wrong? The staff was very nice and helpful and the place appeared clean. We did our normal "para llevar" back to our hotel room. I'm having a few ribs for breakfast as I hope I help you make an informed decision.

This is your brisket dinner plate. Grew up in Texas and I will tell you this is the most dry…read moreflavorless brisket I've ever had. I should've just smoked my own instead of trying this dreadful place. If Lavaca is open when you come to Victoria, skip this place!

Super moist brisket, juicy pork belly and sweet glazed ribs plus a side of smoky Mac and cheese and…read morejalapeño cream corn gave us happy tummies on our drive back from Corpus to Houston. Definitely worth the stop! Spent about $75 for our meal for 2 adults + 1 kid (with some leftovers) so not cheap but it's good! Sides: The cream corn wasn't really spicy but just had the jalapeño flavor. Corn bread was on the crumbly dry side but good. Potato salad was typical. Meats: The meats were the best part with excellent quality and melt in your mouth. They also had good sauces with my favorite being the Texas gold with more of a mustard flavor. Service: very helpful in bringing us our food and getting me a high chair for baby and wiping it down again. Bathroom is surprisingly clean and is detached from the building in a separate area.

Every once in a while a BBQ joint just hits and everything is a winner. That was my trip to Lavaca…read moreBBQ. It was so TX in so many ways. The Big Red Ribs?? Yassss so good! Fall off the bone and an odd sweetness that made it easy to get lost in them. The smoked tamale with brisket and ancho cream sauce?? Stop!! So good! The cheddar cheese stuffed sausage? The cheddar cheese they use was FUNKY in a stinky locker room way that kept pulling me in again, bold and delicious. The Cuban pulled pork tacos? Juicy and savory with an orange and lime kick, with a tortilla that was thin, fresh, and stretchy. It's a good thing I ate the dry rub rib first because I it was perfect... fall off the bone and well seasoned. 10/10 Everything was amazing and then when they give you the Blue Bell ice cream cup with sprinkles at the end it's the cherry on top of happiness. So worth the drive!
