I ordered the fried chicken. I know, I know: it's a BBQ place. But D Magazine mentioned it was one of the best places for fried chicken, so I gave it a chance. The outer crust/skin was different in appearance from the fried chicken I eat, but it was delicious, and the chicken was still juicy. Plus, they have excellent southern sides, as well. Next time you go there, please give their fried chicken a try; it will not disappoint. read more

Gotten better over the last four years since I visited! Mike and his team are over the top good, personable, and caring. As a result, their food is absolutely dialed in. I started off with a Turkey sandwich. Wow! That was the best turkey I've had at a BBQ joint in a long time and the bbq sauce was the perfect complement. Next up I had a couple hush puppies. Just like the best I've had in a North Carolina Calabash restaurant! Finished off with the brisket pinto beans which are the best pinto beans I've ever had. No exaggeration there! Go to this proven spot for some wonderful BBQ and a great time. read more

The Slow Bone - Great BBQ spot! First customer view for the win!!! - Barbeque Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I love barbecue, but when I came to slow bone, I was highly disappointed. The brisket wasn't properly smoked and the fat wasn't rendered properly and it was gelatinous. The sausage was not handmade. It was store bought. The ribs had no flavor and was raw still. Nothing taste smoked or season. The beans was dry and disgusting. The best thing they had was the fried chicken, it was full of flavor. If you are planing on going just get the fried chicken. Trust me read more

TIme to check off another Texas Monthly Top 50 BBQ Joint at The Slow Bone in Downtown Dallas. We arrived yesterday, Saturday 4/30/22 arrived at 10:45am (15 min before opening) and there were 6 people in line ahead of us. By the time we were halfway through our meal, the dining room was packed. So out the gate this place very very delicious but before I get to the food I just want to comment on the few things I also loved about this place. The owner was greeting his guests at the door, shaking hands, asking us our names and was being super gracious and welcoming. What I love about this place is I can order exactly what I want and how much I want. I asked for two slices of brisket one lean one fatty, one rib, one jalapeño cheddar sausage, one fried drumstick and a 1/4lb ea of the smoked turkey and pulled pork, and one small portion of the horseradish potato salad (highly recommended by the owner as well) and got exactly that. There were no minimum weights I had to buy (and frankly I can't stand the places that make me do that). Also the prices were amazingly reasonable. My whole platter was like $54 bucks. My lean brisket was extremely moist with a delicious bark that wasn't a salt bomb and had a remarkable smoke ring. My rib had good flavor and good pull off the bone. I would argue that the pulled pork is top 5 I've had in Texas. It had strong smoke flavor and wasn't sopping wet in juices, which I don't really like. Having fried chicken with my bbq was a pleasant surprise and there's was pretty good! Great crunchy batter with moist chicken meat underneath. I would argue that my jalapeño cheddar sausage was middle of the pack. Listen, I've been falling more in love with smoked turkey lately and this is the best I've ever had full stop. Moist! Not overly salted! And had actual brine turkey flavor! Not just bland boring turkey. If you don't order the turkey you missed out. Another perk of this place are the sides! We ate lunch yesterday with ten of our friends who also had never been there before and were enjoying it just as much as we were. They have a massive selection of sides and everyone got something different. My wife's fried okra was out of sight. My friends Brussels sprouts au gratin was nice and rich. Another one of my friends ordered the sweet potato praline and they loved it. One person said the mac and cheese was a bit too creamy for their preference. But none of that mattered because I was in love with my horseradish potato salad. Get your butts to The Slow Bone as soon as you possibly can!!!! read more

The food was delicious! Clean restaurant and impressed by the customer service. I'd visit again.

Food was good. Barbecue sauce on the table exceptional. Fried chicken needs to be cooked more thoroughly though. Look at the menu before you go because it's on the wall and a bit confusing when ordering if it's your first time there. Cornbread and hush puppies are yummy and complimentary so make sure you ask for some When checking out. I have had better barbecue at other spots but the variety and quality of the sides are exceptionally good. You can make up your own plate. We had the greens, corn pudding, beans, and sweet potato casserole absolutely delicious. I didn't try the dessert but they looked so good. They Have beer and old fashioned soft drink bottles. Check it out for lunch only, we waited until after the lunch rush. They close at 3pm so get there by 2 so you don't need to rush to eat. read more

SlowBone BBQ - Dallas - a little disorganized with ordering, slow process - Brisket (fatty) - good taste, good moisture level, not very smoky, little peppery but not overpowering - Pork ribs - not a lot of flavor but very tender, least favorite of the meats - Beef rib (available Fridays and Saturdays) - WINNER! Super tender, great flavor, not smoky, had nice fat distribution throughout - Sausage - Jalapeño cheddar - great flavor, good amount of cheese, very mild flavor, not a lot of heat, good texture - Mac n cheese - biggest let down, very thin sauce, very little flavor, nothing special - Potato salad - WINNER! Horseradish potato salad, best potato salad at a bbq restaurant yet. Very creamy, not overpowering in the horseradish taste, potatoes were cooked all the way. - BBQ sauce - tangy not too vinegar, slight mustard taste. Good bbq sauce compared to most. read more

Wow, I wish I had come down here to have their BBQ when I first heard of the place. Kinda sitting on an unassuming corner in a quiet part of Dallas, you would not expect the kind of ambiance once you enter the door. It was our first time here and we don't come down to these parts often... so we each tried to order something different to try. And we got the biggest welcome EVER and even got to put a pin on the map, even though we didn't travel THAT far. Okay, here's a run down of what we got: turkey (juiciest smoked turkey I've ever had), 1/4 chicken (11 yo said it had good flavor), braised greens (a MUST), mac n cheese (beware kiddos, it's got a tiny kick to it), tater tots, ribs, brisket (it's texas bbq, comon of course, our litmus test!), potato salad (horseradish?!), mustard slaw... And of course I got a chocolate chip roasted pecan cookie to take home. It was HUGE and the lady who helped me told me she made the dough herself so I had to get it. I didn't take a bite until that night we got home but MAN what a midnight snack! Overall, amazing experience! The parking is a bit tight (nothing this NYC driver couldn't handle), lots of Texan decor and bigger seating area than you'd think and we'll definitely be back to try some other items we didn't get to... read more

Why aren't there more people talking about the fried chicken?! A random Sunday afternoon, so I decided to try this place out once I realized I was in their daily 3hr window of operations. I got a half pound of mixed brisket (lean and fatty), a piece of fried chicken, greens, beans, Brussels gratin and the mac n cheese. The fried chicken was the best bite by a mile, so good! The brisket was tasty too (fatty beat lean) and helped by the tangy barbecue sauce (which is probably my favorite of all the bbq places I've had here, love a vinegary sauce). Cornbread was the best side, followed by greens and Brussels gratin. I wasn't much a fan of the Mac, and the beans were a bit dry for me. Service was fantastic: very friendly and warm, and when I asked for a recommendation between the Brussels and the Mac, they gave me both! Overall: the mains were great, the sides were a little more uneven, and the service was top notch. I'll be back to try the brisket chili next, and for more of that fried chicken! read more

Kinda disappointed that it took us 6 years of living in Dallas to finally try this place! We will definitely be visiting again. The food was delicious, especially the FRIED OKRA OMG. I love the fact that you can design-your-own meat plate. Name the meats, name the sides. Thank you for not boxing me into some 2/1 or 3/2 ridiculousness. What that meant for me was a marvelous sampling just how I wanted it - one chicken drumstick, half a sausage, fried okra, potato salad and 2 hush puppies. YES! I couldn't make it through the plate but rest assured after a few hours of day drinking the food held up amazingly in the car and I enjoyed the round 2 while the hubs drove us home. Did I mention the fried okra??? Soooo good. Will definitely return to try more items - they have plenty more to choose from! The owner was awesome. We had a large group and they were super hospitable and came to check on us often. Great time! read more

The sweet BBQ aroma pulled me in by my nose. I knew better, but it was all my nose's fault! My eyes and tongue joined my nose in picking out the meal. Sliced moist brisket sandwich, a few pork ribs, potato salad and baked beans. I took it to go as I knew I would make a pig of myself eating all of that. I found an empty parking lot and proceeded to moan in delight of all of that tasty food crossing into my mouth! Way too much food, but I kept sliding it in! The smoke flavor was spot on. No sauce was required. All was moist, tender and sweet. The bun was like dessert. They do not skimp on the meat. The potato salad was great but the beans were incredible! Parking is hard to come by at lunch time as this place is busy! Those that know about this BBQ Heaven are showing up! Just follow them in the door. OH, don't forget to take a deep breath when walking in. It is easy to find and the price is absolutely worth the taste and quality! read more

The brisket here is my favorite in DFW. I am a fatty brisket fan, and the one at the Slow Bone is the truth. Whatever they're doing, they're locking in the moisture--just look at my photos! In addition, M and I got to try the pork chop this past Sunday, and it's my favorite thing to get here now. You could probably guess based on my fatty brisket comment above that I'm very dry meat-averse. A lot of people overcook pork chops. Not Slow Bone! Again, look at my photos. The chop we got had really nice texture and so much flavor. Who needs BBQ sauce when you have this kind of yumminess?! We also love the jalapeno cheddar sausage. The other sausage (hickory) is also pretty good, but we are always going to choose the jalapeno cheddar from now on. The mac and cheese was pretty good in our last visit, but not so much in this visit. It was kinda watery, and we didn't even bother bringing it home with the rest of our leftovers. Greens and cornbread were good. Will be back! read more

The service was very efficient. The line wasn't too long on Sunday morning. All of the meats were tender and perfectly seasoned. The cornbread was quite tasty while the other sides were lackluster. They had a nice selection of pickles and other toppers available at self serve station. I found the environment to be nice but keep in mind the seating area is quite small. read more

Excellent BBQ. I usually have the baked potato or a brisket/rib mix, which are excellent, but the other day I was looking for something light so I tried the smoked chicken. Very flavorful and still juicy. The sides are wonderful with a few unusual dishes. Lots of great sauces too. read more

I works literally two blocks away from Slow Bone and today was the day I decided to give it a try. I had the BBQ Sandwich with Brisket Bean and Mac and cheese. The sandwich and beans are pretty good, I really enjoy the Mac and cheese. The service is good as well, this place can get pretty busy sometimes but today was actually a good day. I was told when they run out of meats that's all Folks.. So I'm sure everything is cooked here fresh daily. The ambiance has this country saloon type of style. I definitely dig it. read more

We really wanted to like Slow Bone. We arrived early and spent some time talking with their pit master. We ordered: pork ribs, brisket, a beef rib, fried chicken, greens, and Frito pie. All of the meats had been held for hours and were poached in their own juices, which took away much of the smoky flavor and all of the good bark. The fried chicken was good, but the batter did not have any discernible seasoning. The greens were very good. The Frito pie was excellent. I'd love to try their meats in a competition, where they are not held for hours before being served. read more

We were in town, and we really wanted bbq before heading back home. Found this place on google, and despite the few questoonable reviews, we decided to take the chance. Given that they're located in the downtown area, it conveniently has a parking lot. You order at the counter, have self-serve condiments, and they have plenty of seating space. This was our first time, and we had several questions. Unfortunately, the older lady at the protein station was rude and rushing us. She also insisted we could only order bigger sides if it was to go. Such a hot mess. They really need to work on that because, as a customer serving establishment, having patience to answer questions is important. Hence the dock of one star. That being said, the rest of the staff was friendly and helpful, and we appreciated that. Unlike what the lady said, we were able to order larger portions and have them served in a plastic container since we were sharing and eating family style. So, thank you, guys! The food itself is amazingly flavorful and delicious. The brisket and pork ribs were soooo tender that they melted in your mouth. The mac and cheese was aahhhmazing. The cornbread was moist and one of the best I have ever had. I wasn't a big bbq fan, but this place definitely gave me a new sense of appreciation for bbq. Will be back, and probably just ask to be served by someone else next time. read more

The Slow Bone - Barbeque Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Still one of my fave premium BBQ joints in the Dallas area; I find an excuse to go every time I'm in the neighborhood. Brisket is still reliably delicious and it's always a good sign if they give you the high five when asking for the best marbled cut. I'm also happy to report that beef ribs are part of the weekend special menu and they don't disappoint (especially if you like your beef ribs rich and tasty). Something that I've started recently trying is their fried chicken which, on better days, is fabulously crispy and well seasoned. On their off days, it's just plain fried chicken. (Maybe order timing is an issue). If Slow Bone can make their fried chicken game reliably good on EVERY visit, then I won't hesitate to order it again and again. I haven't had opportunity to try too many of their daily specials, but one thing I'm glad that they figured out that other places haven't caught on to yet: fried rice is the perfect accompaniment to Texas barbecue. While I find the Freaky Fried Rice a little too dry and plain (could use a little more seasoning, scallions and garlic), it's a nice add to an already exceptional and expansive spread of veggie sides. Seriously: Slow Bone has the best sides of any and all the BBQ joints in town, and they can be a meal unto themselves. Brussels flower gratin, squash casserole, sweet potato praline, and horseradish potato salad are all worthy of double quarts for take-home. I'm a huge fan of their horseradish potato salad (perfect for cutting into the richness of their brisket/beef rib) and I need their honey butter cornbread in my life. Every. Day. Of. My. Life. It seems the chief complaint I read about the Slow Bone is their pricing, and perhaps they may seem pricy for the neighborhood they serve (chiefly a warehouse/blue collar district). But it is comparable to other premium barbecue joints in Dallas, especially when you're ordering the prime grade beef. My personal wish is that they'd resurrect the cilantro sausage they used to offer a few years ago...maybe they'll bring it back someday as a special, wouldn't that be nice? read more

Placed an order first thing Monday morning and was blown away! Def recommend the aged pork chop if you are here on Sunday or Monday! Literally mouth watering goodness! This place is on another level when it comes to smoked BBQ!!! The brisket literally falls apart and is beyond amazing and the Chilli just has this touch of Smokey smoothness to it that tops the entire experience off! 10/10 must eat at spots in Dallas!!! read more

The.Mac.and.cheese! The BEST CORNBREAD! This was my second time eating at Slow Bone and it did not disappoint. I had the Texas nail, which is a chopped brisket sandwich with cheese,mushrooms, -&onions all chopped up together on a large toasted buttery bun! If you want pickles they have it, if you want mustard they have it! If you want onions they have it. They have a variety of good sides along with so many different types of meat to choose from. Arrive early, grab some good BBQ & sweet tea and corn bread & you will leave full. read more

Wonderful Tx BBQ. Turkey, brisket, reg and jalapeño sausage, beans, DO NOT miss the brisket chili, squash casserole and cornbread. We stopped for $200 worth to take to a couple who's husband was in my hospital and wanted some bbq. He had no idea what was in store when we walked in with a brown sack of Tx smoked, meaty goodness. It took 2 days to finish it all, but we fought through it. I'm not usually that impressed with bbq but stop it with this spot. Would recommend, highly and will return, soon. read more

Great BBQ and good atmosphere. I've enjoyed every visit. Great Brisket and numerous delicious sides. I recommend the Slow Bone. read more

Nice atmosphere but I wasn't that impressed with the bbq. I had the brisket and the hickory sausage and the horseradish potato salad. I thought the brisket was pretty dang bland. Just not much going on in the flavor dept, didn't taste the smoke at all to the point I would have believed the meat was baked in an oven or even steamed or boiled. The sausage was unexceptional. The potato salad was just alright. read more

Super freakin delicious. I'd recommend you order takeout to avoid the looong lines. Try the Brussels sprouts and the pea salad

Doing the Texas Monthly "Top 50 BBQ spots". Pulled up to The Slow Bone on a Sunday around 2pm. The parking lot is small but it is free! Walked in to find out they still had Brisket & sausage but out of ribs & pork chops...all was well as I was after the brisket. So, the process is you walk in order and they cut/slice as you order which is nice so you can see the product you are getting. The gentleman at the brisket cutting was nice and friendly we got a mix of lean & moist Brisket which was delicious. We also got Jalapeño Cheddar sausage along with Hickory Sausage both were tasty. Collard greens & Potato Salad were nice and delicious sides. Along with some tasty complimentary hush puppies, which were delicious. You get your food when you pay for it and then you get your drinks yourself and then you get to pick where to sit. This restaurant has places to sit inside and outside. The drinks are self serve and the food is served on lunch trays which is interesting. They have signs on the tables to leave your stuff on the tables after eating and they clean up. The staff here was nice. read more

Texas BBQ The BBQ scene in Dallas has flourished the past few years and no longer plays second fiddle to fellow city Austin I stopped by two venues this quick visit and added to the two that I've tried before Brisket is king in Texas and I went to two of the best this time My second stop was The Slow Bone with limited hours of 11-3, 7 days a week. Absolutely the friendliest service and standout BBQ for a great atmosphere and vibe. They welcome visitors! The highlight is the Beef Rib; available on Fri/Sat (they sell out quickly) and it's impressively ginormous yet still paradoxically tender and juicy. I've tried ordering Beef Rib before but it sells out everywhere and this time I snagged the second to last order The brisket was good though sliced thicker and less juicy and moist than Terry Black's Beef Rib $24/lb / Brisket (1/4 lb) $7.50 / Fries $4 The Slow Bone (Dallas, TX) The Slow Bone accepts credit cards and has plentiful outdoor and indoor seating. They truly welcome visitors from outside of Dallas. read more

Created by Chef Jeffery Hobbs in 2013 there has been no shortage of accolades for The Slow Bone since opening, years in fine-dining perhaps inconsequential to Smoked Meats but paying dividends across everything from daily specials to Pickles, Desserts and Sides. Off the beaten path near Turtle Creek, though this has never stopped diners from lining up prior to an 11:00am opening, it was in cold weather that guests stood awaiting entry while a smoker dubbed "Miss Jessie" finished her preparation of Sunday's first servings. All smiles and pleasantries, Chef Hobbs front and center slicing Meats for each guest, it was with wide eyes that four guests ordered far too much, a Pickle and Sauce bar rounding out two trays from which supple Turkey Breast was an immediate standout thanks to unparalleled juiciness. Decorated as expected, with Beer signs and photos to compliment a Country soundtrack, Prime Brisket trends a little less smoky than one might hope while housemade Sausage are snappy and bright with or without one of Slow Bone's many Sauces. Exciting with Sides, far from the average BBQ standards, Collards have all the sapor of Hobbs' Pulled Pork brightened by Vinegar while Beans are benefitted by Brisket, though Vegetarian-friendly Sweet Potato Praline and "Brussel Flower Au Gratin" are no less delicious. Not forgetting Slow Bone's famous Fried Chicken, blasphemy to purists but nonetheless excellent thanks to a Smoked Water Brine and Potato Starch adding to its crispy coating, Carbs come not from plain White Bread but rather an oversized Cookie and sticky Cornmeal sliced, fried into golden orbs or served as gooey Pudding. read more

Decent place for BBQ in Dallas. A buddy of mine and I tried this for the first time recently and had a great meal. We got there right when it opened at 11am, but the line moved quick (about 7 people in front of us). There are a lot of options to choose from and all were pretty good. We tried the brisket, turkey, sausage, ribs and pulled pork. The brisket had a little too much fat for our liking, but the bark was great. The beans and mac and cheese were tasty as well. We will definitely be back. read more

We arrived during lunch on a Saturday, which is typically not a good idea for a good bbq place. The parking lot is small and there were maybe 10 cars, which we should have taken as not a good sign (despite all the glowing yelp reviews). Upon entering the smell of smoke was heaven... and notably there was no line. To order, it's like cafeteria style. We ordered 2 pieces of fried chicken (white and dark), 1 pork rib, 1/2 lb lean brisket (which was still kinda fatty), 1/4 jalepeno cheese sausage, sweet potato casserole, and mac n cheese and we never got our hush puppies that came with our order (you had a choice of that or cornbread). Brisket had a faint smoke ring, but no real smoke flavor. The pork rib was juicy, pulled off bone easy and had a slight smoke flavor, but you could definitely tell that it ,and the brisket, were finished in the oven. The sausage was just like any other jalepeno cheese sausage, and no smoke flavor. The fried chicken, which we were looking forward to based off of the reviews, was a big letdown. Chicken crust had no seasoning and the chicken itself had a light brine but definitely needed more seasoning. There were 3 bbq sauces at the condiment bar... skip the sauces unless you truly love vinegar. There was a green chimichurri kinda? sauce that was good but a tad on the sweet side. The only reason we gave 2 stars is because of the two sides... really good mac n cheese and that sweet potato casserole.. yum! The staff were friendly and let us sample the brisket chili, which was ok, a bit too sweet for my liking. There are better bbq options in dallas... but definitely stop by here for Thanksgiving to pick up sweet potato casserole. read more

Phenomenal. Hands down the best pork rib I've ever had. Wow. Wowwww. (Edit: the pork rib at Cattleack is really good too!) The brisket was amazing as well. We ordered half lean and half fatty. I can only speak on behalf of the fatty brisket but my brother who only eats leaner meats thought the lean brisket was very good! We also ordered a piece of fried chicken to try as well. Delish. The chicken was insanely moist and juicy. The batter was a little too oily for my taste though. It reminded me of Chinese salt and pepper fried batter. My sister really loved it though! In addition to the meats, we ordered a smorgasbord of sides: sweet potato praline, brussels flower au gratin, green bean casserole, and the fried okra. Honestly, the sides were just OK and are the reason I'm giving The Slow Bone four stars instead of five stars The sweet potato praline was probably my favorite of the sides but it wasn't really that standout. The only side that was memorable was the fried okra which was unique and dusted with seasoning that was a good blend of sweet and salty. I liked it but didn't love it. My two siblings were big fans though. Overall, for the quality of the meats, I would definitely recommend The Slow Bone! There's a great variety of sides but I wasn't too crazy about any of them but at least they have some decent choices so that you can have a somewhat balanced meal! read more

After trying Hard Eight, a few friends raves about Slow Bone begins our hotel in Dallas. One said it was the best fried chicken he's ever had..... so we gave it a shot! We got fried chicken, brisket, hickory sausage, brisket chili, and brisket beans. He got fried chicken, Max & cheese, and sweet potato praline. The brisket was awesome. So tender it fell apart immediately touching it with a fork! The flavor was a little smokey but brisket had an amazing natural taste to it! It was better than Hard Eight's and the best I have had in Dallas so far. The crust was great. Cooked with a nice char but not tough at all! The hickory sausage was very good as well. No spice, just a subtle smokey flavor. I loved it but I did find Hard Eight's sausage to have more flavor, but it's definitely worth trying here... they are close. The brisket chili had a good flavor to it but I found it too watery and oily for my liking and did not finish it. The corn bread was really good! Good traditional cornbread, that wasn't dried out. The brisket beans were very tasty. Had a nice balance of smoke and pepper with their awesome brisket in it! Definitely recommend. My friend loved jalapeño Max & cheese and sweet potato praline... he said it was like candy! Now the best for last.... HOLY HELL! Their fried chicken is absolutely amazing! I agree with the guy who recommended Slow Bone to us. It is absolutely the best fried chicken I have ever had!! The chicken is juicy and the breading is not heavy at all. It's a really tasty like flaky type of breading. It is worth the drive to try the fried chicken!!!!!! Overall, Slow Bone did not disappoint one bit! The food was very tasty and you can order by weight. Their prices are cheaper than other popular bbq places like Hard Eight. The only thing I would knock them for is their food is greasier than the other places. So if that may bother your stomach, it could be an issue. I'm giving Slow Bone 5 stars, it's well deserved! This is my favorite bbq so far in Dallas. read more

Came because of the Top 50 list. Thought everything was good, but didn't blow me away. Probably would've rated the food a 3.5, but friendly service bumped up to four. Brisket was tender, good bark. Sausage had a nice snap. Felt like everything needed more salt and pepper. Overall pretty good, and worth checking out, but probably not a repeat trip for us. read more
