what have y'all done to the coleslaw and potato salad. i loved the coleslaw, but the recipe seems to have changed, it's not great, seems, like mayo was added to the vinegar dressing. And the potato salad changed sometime ago, it has a sour cream taste which isn't good. We've really enjoyed the barbecue, my husband especially like the ribs. picked up a pound today for lunch and it was just ok. Whatever the, Pitmaster has changed, tell them to go back to the original recipes. You guys are about the best place to pick up barbecue in town, without having to drive miles to eat great barbecue. read more

H-E-Bar?! You're telling me you can drink a margarita then go grocery shopping? I love it here. Aaron was a fantastic bartender, drinks are strong, spicy and wildly cheap. I feel like I just discovered Georgetown's best kept secret. I dunno what him and Shanon are doing but they're doing it right. I love My HEB. read more

True Texas BBQ - Spicy Margarita - Barbeque Near Me - Georgetown, Texas

I was really disappointed with my experience at True Texas BBQ inside H-E-B. The drive-thru experience started off poorly because the speaker was difficult to hear and the order screen wasn't working, so there was no way to verify that my order was correct. When I had trouble communicating through the speaker, the employee seemed visibly frustrated instead of trying to help. At the window, there was no greeting or customer service whatsoever. I wasn't greeted, thanked, or told to have a nice day. The employee silently handed me the card reader, took my payment, and handed me my food. I also wasn't asked if I wanted barbecue sauce or utensils. After leaving, I realized I wanted barbecue sauce, so I went back inside to get some. Then while I get back in the car, I discovered my meal was also missing the bread, pickles, and onions that are supposed to come with it. At that point, I didn't feel like making another trip to the counter just to get the rest of the meal I had already paid for. To make matters worse, I tried calling to provide feedback, but no one answered the phone. Everyone can have an off day, but this experience fell short in both customer service and order accuracy. Between the broken ordering screen, poor communication, missing meal items, and lack of even basic courtesy, I won't be returning to this location. read more

I bought some BBQ at the HEB University Ave in Georgetown. I didn't have high expectations since BBQ isn't HEB's specialty. Just ate it for dinner. The ribs had zero smoke ring and tasted baked. Then they were slathered with sweet BBQ sauce. Good BBQ doesn't need sauce slathered all over it. Some pieces were tougher than others. The brisket was a half pound but again, no smoke ring. Couldn't even finish the brisket. Potato salad was OK but again not much flavor. I guess the best part was the waitstaff who were very friendly. Nice set up so the area looks inviting but HEB needs to stick to what they know - groceries. Or get some people on staff who actually know how to do BBQ. read more

Chelsea was fabulous! Super attentive and kind, she gave excellent menu suggestions, and you could tell she took pride in her place of work. I've watched her on several occasions gracefully divide and conquer on busy nights, ensuring that every guest--at the bar, on the patio, or seated in the surrounding areas (including myself)--was taken care of. Thanks, Chels, for a great experience every time! read more

We've been to the drive up in Georgetown several times but the most disappointing thing is we order online and then often when we get there, they tell us oh we're out of this. Oh we're out of that just feel like why did you take the order then if you were out of the particular item aside from that we've tried pretty much everything on the menu as far as the meats go and everything's been decent. I think the standout is probably the ribs. The burnings are cut a little bit too big and we did try their dessert. The churro type dessert and personally didn't care for it. The size are good. We've tried everything but the stand out for us is the brisket beans those are really really good. read more

My family went through the drive through for a family pack dinner around 7pm on a Thursday. It was our first time doing that. It included 2lbs of meat, 2 family size sides, and 1 gallon beverage. We chose 1lb lean brisket and 1lb turkey breast. They were sold out of ribs. For sides, the Brisket Beans, and Mac n Cheese, an a gallon of Lemonade, for $59.99. We additionally added a sausage link. Everyone liked the turkey breast the best. It's not necessarily kid friendly because it was so peppery... non the less, really good. The brisket was sadly a miss. I enjoyed the sausage as well. It was kid friendly. The Mac and Cheese was great! The kids loved it. The Beans with Brisket were awesome as well. Spicy again, but awesome. Side note: Bbq sauce wasn't included in the order, so if you go through the drive through like us, know that. We were surprised. I would order again for sure after exploring the menu. read more

An HEB owned BBQ restaurant that runs out of sliced brisket? And then, even though they have digital menus, can't update the menu to reflect that? Poor form. Not what I've come to expect from HEB. read more

I'm really surprised this place isn't getting the love! I've been here multiple times, and the only problem I had was fixed quickly. Originally you had to wait through the drive thru line if you wanted to pick up your app order. They now route you to the outside lane and run out your order. Way more efficient! Today I ordered a plain potato, 1/2 lb of lean brisket, and a Texas tornado. I like to get my potato plain so I can dress it myself at home. The potatoes are cooked well & easy to reheat if necessary. The lean brisket is my favorite, nice crust, smoke ring & juicy! This was my first time trying a Texas Tornado. It's a jalapeno stuffed with brisket, cream cheese & the outside is coated with bacon sausage. They cook the whole thing in the smoker & coat it with a cherry habanero sauce. Really good! I'm looking forward to trying some additional items! read more

This place has been very good for a few years now. But the brisket we got today was inedible. The flavor and texture was really bad. Would love to give them the benefit of the doubt but for $60 lunch you just can't let this happen as a business. Sorry guys read more

Solid bbq option with a DRIVE THROUGH!!! The BBQ is all good. The beans and macaroni are great. Not a big fan of the greens. Potato salad is okay. Have not tried the slaw. Banana pudding is also great. They also have a dining room downstairs, a small dining room upstairs with a full bar, and a patio with tables on the second level. read more

Good BBQ! We've had the brisket, ribs, and loaded baked potato and the yummy brisket nachos and have not been disappointed.. it's not Franklins or Terry Blacks but it's pretty dang decent BBQ. The sides of Mac n cheese, potato salad are good and the Peach cobbler is a tad on the small side but really delicious. The brisket beans are really good! But hijole! I was estinky later in the night... The employees there are absolutely fantastic and because it's HEB , there's no where to leave a tip. The lines can be a little long especially inside since they only have one register. The car line can be long but very convenient. I don't think the price is bad especially since I've been to the high end BBQ places..$$$. We will definitely go back read more

This is the best bbq I've had in a long time. It's as good as any of the other Texas bbq restaurants I've been to, and is conveniently located inside my favorite H-E-B store. The restaurant is cute and clean, and pretty quiet. There's a full bar upstairs and patio seating if you're so inclined. The service is exceptional. While there, I witnessed about a dozen elderly with canes ordering, and when their orders were up Clara kindly and respectfully called them up and had their food carried to their tables for them. Good food, good service, good people. 10/10 read more

This is a solid spot for BBQ, AND they have a drive thru! The hubs and I have been eager to check out this place and we were finally able to dine-in on a Friday night. Whenever we visit a restaurant for the first time, we like trying as much of their menu as possible (to see just how legit the place is), so we each ordered the 3 meat platter. I ordered: burnt ends, pulled pork, ribs, collard greens (they were out, so I ordered potato salad instead), brisket beans and Serrano cornbread. My hubs ordered: turkey, sausage, lean brisket, mac n cheese and brisket beans. Of the meats, the turkey and the burnt ends were my favorites; the ribs and the lean brisket were a bit on the dry side-- we will order moist brisket next time. The cornbread was also a tad dry for my taste, but the rest of the sides were delicious. They have fountain drinks downstairs and a full bar upstairs (fyi- the restrooms are upstairs also). There is indoor and outdoor seating upstairs with fans and TVs outside, the space is big enough for large gatherings. Oh, and the customer service was great: fast and friendly! It's definitely a good BBQ option and chill spot to hang with family and friends for lunch, happy hour, or dinner. We'll be back! read more

Very good bbq, but not the best I've had. They have a great menu selection. The restaurant is two stories. The lower level is were you order and pick up your food, the upper level has a full bar. Both levels have a dinning area, and outdoor patio seating as well. Now mind you, this restaurant is attached to the new HEB they just opened up in Georgetown. It's the biggest HEB in Texas. read more

You can't beat being able to have some bbq before doing your grocery shopping and a cocktail is just the special treat

I'm pleasantly surprised at how good the bbq is here! Go early and get the meats nice and moist before the night ends... I do have to say that the service should do a better job at checking all orders for to-go or drive thru.. The first time I was missing my mac and cheese in my order. I called and they said they could put it in the book for the next time i come by. When I returned a different day to pick up, I ended up ordering more food, this next time around I ordered a banana pudding and I checked my bag and that was missing!! Before you leave here, make sure your entire order is complete... read more

Excellent BBQs but the prices are steep. Located in the H-E-B grocery store. The children portion is a good size if you are not up for a regular sandwich read more

H-E-B has officially opened its new Wolf Lakes Village H-E-B in Georgetown. The store, which is twice the size of the location it replaced, provides customers with an expanded product selection along with more services and features, including a two-story True Texas BBQ restaurant with full-service bar (yes, FULL SERVICE with vodka, rum, etc). The ordering process Let me start with this, the food and service (at the bar) is outstanding but the wait and process for ordering is abysmal. When I came to this location, I waited in line for more than 30 minutes to place an order and waited another 35 minutes to get the food. Yes, over an hour for food. There was one cashier and one expeditor for the inside customers and one person taking orders for the customers waiting outside in the two car lines. If there were more people who were customer facing (e.g., cashiers), this would not make a difference in wait times only because there aren't enough workers in the kitchen to make the food. The food The brisket nachos were outstanding. The nachos were topped with juicy brisket, cheese sauce, green onions, sour cream and fresh jalapenos. To the restaurant's credit, every location like this one in the H-E-B family uses all-natural Angus brisket that is either choice or prime grade. H-E-B sells the same raw briskets in the store. The white turkey meat had a rich smoky pepper flavor and was tender. This same sentiment can be used to describe the sausage. The TX Torepo left much to be desired. This meat is stuffed with cream cheese and brisket, then wrapped in ground sausage and slathered with raspberry-chipotle glaze. This item was hard/over done and difficult to consume. The sides ordered were greens and macaroni and cheese. The greens seemed as if they were canned and lacked the acidity that fresh greens have. The macaroni and cheese... no words for this, in the trash it went. The peach cobbler was sweet with hints of cinnamon and wasn't dried out as many desserts like this can be when they are made ahead of time. Bar service The bartenders I had were great (so much so that I tipped them $20 each for a bill that was a fraction of that). The spirits served here are local spirits only. So if one is looking for vodka, rum or tequila, etc not made in TX, well one should look elsewhere. The bartenders were friendly, courteous and a riot! The time spent waiting for my food was spent at the bar knocking back gin and tonics with a friend! If coming to this location, it is recommended that you be prepared to wait and while you do so, head up to the bar and have a drink or go shopping for your weekly/monthly groceries because it will be a while. read more

The new H‑E‑B building here in Georgetown is awesome. This BBQ place here is also really great looking inside. I wish however that the food was equally impressive. My potato salad was the best part of the meal. I really enjoyed that. Coleslaw tasted like most other coleslaws out there. The turkey had that desired pink smoke ring with was nice, it also had a good flavor, but it was really tough to chew. I really hopped it would have been more moist and tender. The service is friendly but slow. There were no one in line yet it still took quite a bit to get our food. read more

No pics because it was all eaten so quickly! We like the sweet bbq sauce. The fatty brisket is really good in Texas torpedo is a must try. It's a sausage stuffed with a jalapeño with cream cheese and brisket and a raspberry barbecue sauce. The macaroni and cheese is OK, the greens were good, queso was good, the barbecue beans are awesome wasn't what I was thinking it would be, but it's better. The barbecue beans are spicy. They have brisket in them and they're great! Peach cobbler was ok. The cold slaws was good. The brisket is awesome! Pickles & onions of course. read more

Yummy! Drive thru order. Pulled pork - order this! Chopped Brisket - order this Pork Ribs - get these too Delicious meats! Added spicy BBQ sauce provided. Cole slaw is good but a bit bland. It doesn't have onion. I added a few drops of spicy BBQ sauce. Mac and Cheese is very good too. More creamy than cheesy but very tasty. Dill pickle slices and onion pieces added per request. Price is about the same as most other BBQ places. Will definitely go back. Highly recommend read more

Well if you want real smoked BBQ flavour.... maybe an alternative should be considered. I had the Tomahawk Pork chop and it was alright. My daughter said the same about the sausage and potato salad. Slightly bland. $60+ for 3 lbs of meat. read more

Dinging a start for the price - too high for a restaurant in a grocery store. That same star subtraction is about the availability - y'all, they run out of stuff way too often for being attached to a grocery store that receives daily trucks for restock. Like, oh, you're out of sausage? Get some next door. lol. Ok, I know that's not how that works, so I won't be too hard on them for that. Also, their ambiance kinda sucks. It's a grocery store. But I can't give less than 4 stars, because frankly the food is fantastic. Service isn't bad. Never had a complaint there. read more

Great bbq but I think there sandwiches have gotten a bit smaller. Bidenomics I guess!! Right people. Get out and vote!! Sure don't want another 4 years of this stuff. read more

If I could rate this no stars, I would. This experience has made me realize that I will never be coming back nor visiting any other True Texas BBQ inside an HEB. After reading explanations this location has been opened for 11 days so I was excited to try some BBQ food. I DID NOT enjoy standing in a line for 35 minutes before my order got taken, specially when it seems like they are focusing on drive-thru and not the inside service (just do the drive thru anyone coming here). As I was standing in the slow moving line I observed many employees just standing around and only one person taking orders (good job Johnathan!) when two POS systems were there. Managers would come in and out of the back but never saw anyone stepping in to help deal with the massive rush that there was. Forks were not stocked and when another lady asked for a fork, she was told by an employee to use the spoons because that was where the forks were, even though only spoons were there. The place has only been open for an hour and they were already out of potato salad, collard greens and large sandwiches. Menu boards have no explanation of any speciality sandwiches. Got a couple little cups of extra BBQ sauce and sat down upstairs to wait for the meal. Door to the outside is broken and opens on its own only to SLAM closed after a few seconds later. BBQ sauce tastes bottled. It has been 30 minutes, ordered at 12:18, and still have not gotten our order yet. *EDIT* FINALLY got our food at 12:59. I had ordered the loaded baked potato with pulled pork. Pulled pork was okay and potato was cooked, nothing special about it. My better half got loaded mac & cheese with brisket, cornbread and a blueberry cobbler (because who doesn't like dessert). Mac and cheese has a layer of grease before you get down to the mac making it all super greasy. Cornbread was super dry, even with the mound of butter on it. Cobbler was cold, expected a warm gooey cobbler. So to sum up, not worth the wait and will never be coming back. read more

Absolutely delicious. Not sure what all the negative reviews are about. My guess is it's small BBQ chains mad with the new competition and perhaps giving bogus reviews. I've ordered from here 4 times via Uber Eats and it has been phenomenal each time. So yummy. Highly recommend!!! read more

True Texas BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Georgetown, Texas

Delicious delicious Texas BBQ!!! I'm so happy that H‑E‑B near my house finally opened this BBQ spot. The brisket is super tender and moist, even the lean one. I preferred the fatty sliced brisket because of the marble. What we've experienced is the fatty slices tend to have a big slab of fat in the middle in addition to the marble, and we had to cut off quite a lot of fat. If you'd like to order the fatty ones, ask the staff to put in the note that you'd like the brisket piece that doesn't have a big strip of fat in the middle. The brisket beans is also very tasty. It's a different than the brisket beans we've had at the Mueller location. This one tastes like they added tomatoes and pickled jalapeño, so it has a bit of a tangy taste to it. Pickles are fresh and crunchy without being super sour. BBQ sauce is peppery and has a nice balance of sweetness and tanginess was to it. Peach cobbler is also delicious and it's a nice treat to end the meal. There are also sweetened and unsweetened iced tea, sweetened mango tea, lemonade and strawberry lemonade. They really deliver a true Texas experience, just like the name! read more

seemed to be slipping again...we ate there a few days ago..actually got our order to go...the beans seemed to have changed...more like chili beans, but did have brisket pieces in them...ribs were great...fatty brisket had an awful lot of waste, grease pieces falling off of it read more

On our first visit we were excited to try it out however we were not that impressed. We ordered our food to go and they forgot the bbq sauce and bread. We looked at the receipt and confirmed we did order these items and didn't realize they were missing until we got home. So we had our food without sauce and without bread. The burnt ends and mac and cheese side tasted pretty good. The lean brisket was ok but had a lot of fat on it. I was excited to try the Texas torpedo, however it was dried out and tough, very difficult to cut. The coleslaw was just OK nothing special. The peach cobbler dessert was tasty but they could do better with how it's packaged. It was literally smashed into a cup so the crust that makes the best part of a cobbler was soggy at all since it was all smashed together. Does not look at all like the picture on the menu. Again it was tasty but not what I was expecting. read more

Can't even rate the food because the service was so slow I waited 20 MINUTES WITH only 5 people infront of me to order QUESO. If you're a new restaurant you need to be staffed for it. Ridiculous. read more

Got the 3 meat plate with supposedly 2 sides. If this is supposed to be up to par with any other true Texas BBQ joints this is sadly disappointing just judging from portion rations for adults that a child could finish in half a sitting for 40 dollars. read more

I've ordered from uber eats twice from here. Both times were disasters. Orders were totally screwed up with missing items and unsafe cold food. This place needs a health inspection as soon as possible and I will forward that sentiment to the appropriate agencies. read more
