Stopped by Harmons BBQ and ordered the chopped pork. They do not call it pulled pork, but it is…read morepretty much the same thing. The pork was flavorful, tender, and had good BBQ flavor. Compared to some of the bigger BBQ places around town, I think Harmons holds its own when it comes to quality. The ambiance also fits the BBQ experience, with a nice Western, old-school feel. They even have a cool vintage-style gas pump that adds some character to the place. The brownie was fresh and delicious, and definitely worth trying. The sides were good as well, although they were a little hard to find on the menu boards, so it took some looking to figure out the options. One thing to know is that they do not take Amex, so bring another card or payment method. Overall, good-quality BBQ without feeling like you have to go to one of the big-name spots. I would come back to try some of their other meats and sides.

This place has always been great. I've gone here for years and love their sweet tangy bbq sauce…read more Every side I've had is tasty as well. This restaurant has really grown from its small humble beginnings and I'm here for it. Even though it has expanded, it has not lost one ounce of its rustic small town charm. This is the place to take your out of state friends to have some amazing Texas barbecue.

Caveat: we came in during an air show weekend and the restaurant had several orders from the air…read moreshow but I have to rate them on our experience not on circumstances. We arrived just as they opened. There was no one to greet us for the first few minutes. Finally, someone came out from the back to let us know that they were busy, which sounded strange since they had just opened, but when they explained about the air show it made sense. The music is loud but that's expected. It is a bar after all...that serves barbecue. We ordered at the bar and sat down. BWE and I shared the Chuckwagon Classic Plate, and we added 1/3 lb of brisket. My son had the same Classic Plate. We got the beans and fries as our sides. When our food was brought to us, the server didn't give us utensils. We had to ask her for them. The portions seemed small. The brisket was not hot. It was room temperature. The fries and beans were just okay. We were underwhelmed. This is Texas. Our expectations were high but we were disappointed. It could be that the order from the air show overwhelmed them and left them little strength to give attention to our order so I'll give them a little grace and give them two stars instead of one. We won't be back.

Outstanding BBQ! Drove through a small industrial area in…read moreSelma to get to this place, and it's connected to a Mexican food restaurant as well. Noticed upon entrance, a humongous outdoor space connected to both restaurants which included plenty of outdoor seating tables and a stage. It must get busy on the weekends and I assume there's entertainment. Friendly greeting upon entering and seat yourself. Lots of TVs with Chive and enjoyed the country music in the background. Excellent service! Our server was friendly and checked on us frequently. Complimentary tortilla chips with a special seasoning and queso were brought to the table . I liked the seasoning. There's also a small complimentary condiment and BBQ sauce bar- which included onions, pickles, jalapeños, regular and spicy BBQ sauce. Pickles were nice and appeared home made. I dipped my meats in combos of both sauces, I enjoyed them both. We all ordered the two meat combos $18 with your choice of two sides and served with Texas toast. I ordered the brisket and pulled pork. Both were excellent! The brisket had a nice tiny fatty edge and was seasoned and cooked perfectly. The pulled pork was deelish. Good portion size too. I enjoyed the beans, but the coleslaw not so much. The slaw was bland and had no flavor. Others at my table ordered the tater tots, which were highly seasoned and had a nice crunch. We were so full, had some leftovers for the next day. Great BBQ, great service!

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would! We showed up about 45 minutes before the kitchen…read moreclosed and they were still so welcoming and never made us feel rushed. I ordered the BBQ parfait with a grape lemonade and gooooodness... it was delicious and super filling!! We also had the chance to meet one of the owners, who was really nice. The staff overall was kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable about the menu. The inside is pretty small with just a few tables both inside and outside, but it had a cozy vibe. I'd definitely love to come back and try more items on the menu!

The theme, "Purple Pig" is genius. The people working here are really nice…read more The ambience is okay. Old school music was good but the volume was too much to bear. How can you relax and have a conversation with your friends or a date if you can't hear yourselves think? The service is nonexistent and that's fine because it's your basic fast food concept. Not a problem. However, the food is more industrial based than true Texas BBQ. My brisket was very dry. They slather a lot of BBQ sauce on top of your meat. Why? Because the meat is either old or dry or both. Mine was very dry. The beans were drenched in sugar. The Mac and Cheese lacked (cheese) taste. We love good BBQ. This is not good BBQ. Compare to the Burnt Bean in Sequin and you will understand. The burnt bean runs out of product leaving long lines for their food; it's real BBQ, fresh homemade food. You can taste it.

The pricing was misleading. I ordered a 1 meat plate and expected to be charged $10.50. Instead,…read moreI was charged $16.50 plus tax. The menu pricing makes no sense and/or misleading.

Hello my fellow foodies…read more I'm about to relax after devouring this deliciousness from Daddy J's BBQ! We ordered the 3 meat special for $14, the sides (Big beans and coleslaw) were extra; making the grand total $19. RIBS (5/5): The ribs were so tender and seasoned to perfection. I've ordered ribs from several local barbecue joints and some were either dry or was too much smoky flavor for me. I'm kicking myself in the rear end for not ordering more. Daddy J's ribs were juicy with just enough of season and smoky flavor. BAKED BEANS (5/5): Beans were tangy and sweet; very flavorful SAUSAGE (5/5): Sausage was hot and fresh but flavor was nothing really to rave about. It tasted like normal kielbasa sausage. BRISKET (4/5): While I'm not a huge brisket fan, I have to admit, it tasted pretty good. I personally feel like brisket should be injected with the same seasoning that's used on the outside. But, I understand most BBQ joints use the traditional way and I'm sure many may enjoy it just as it is. My husband ate more of it than I did and enjoyed it just as much as he did the ribs. COLESLAW (4/5): Coleslaw was cold and fresh. Although, I would have added a little more creamy slaw dressing. Rolls tasted as if they were Hawaiian rolls but that works too To me, it seems as if the ribs are the heavy hitting here! I would definitely visit again, order just ribs and sides.

For those wondering where to find them, they are at the Commisary parking lot every day for lunch!

Met up with a friend for a late lunch who recommended True Texas BBQ. I don't know why I haven't…read moretried it as it's near an HEB I frequent. I guess I just beeline for groceries and leave. I wasn't sure if I wanted to order just meat on the side and a side order so my friend suggested getting the Loaded Brisket Potato. That sounded perfect. Chuck was our cashier and server. He was fidgeting with the cash register as it had been down from an IT glitch and had to re-input the menu items. I asked if the brisket used in the Loaded Potato is different from the Prime Brisket? He said it was the same meat. I wanted to order the Potato to taste then decide if I wanted to buy a pound. My friend also ordered a Loaded Brisket Potato with Green Onions and a side of Fried Green Beans. I also got a Watermelon Iced Tea which Chuck recommended. The Iced Tea was a little sweet for me so I mixed it with regular Iced Tea but I could definitely taste the Watermelon essence. My brisket seemed salty and heavily seasoned and looked like I was given "Burnt Ends". My friend had more tender cuts. I think my potato could've used more Sour Cream and the potato could've been cooked longer where it's steamy and soft. My meal seamed dry as the only other ingredient was the cheese. My friend noted that her HEB True Texas BBQ had more flavorful meat. Guess I'll have to try another location. The Green Beans were crunchy but too greasy for me. Chuck was attentive and helpful. He served our entrees and brought other customer's entrees to their table. I liked the little toothpicks in a True Texas BBQ package by the condiments. The restaurant was very clean as was the bathroom.

On Sunday, went to have a barbecue here at the H-E-B barbecue place. Placed order online at the…read moreKiosk at the entrance and checked in with the counter. Then we went and got a seat. Waited for our number/name to be called. There were two people behind the counter, both on their personal cell phones. There were tables around us that needed to be wiped down. Our number/name was called in a reasonable time. Upon receipt of the food it left a little to be desired for presentation. The meats were not very warm however they were warm. The food tasted good. When I went to get sweet tea or peach tea both were out. I went up to the counter informed the people that were both still on the personal cell phones. I went and sat down. The personnel did respond immediately to both teas being out and filled them. The ambience in the restaurant was very good. I did notice at the table next to me. There was a couple talking about several of the items I just mentioned. I just expected a little bit better from H-E-B. But this is twice now that I have been sort of disappointed with HEB's true Texas barbecue. Hope that H-E-B reads this and tries to do something about it. If the staff would pay a little bit more attention to detail of the restaurant, and the needs of the patrons, I think this would help out immensely.

I was excited to have a locally owned/operated BBQ place in UC. I've been to Davilas a couple times…read morenow. At best, it's average BBQ. Just keeping in real. It's significantly better than Bill Miller a block a way, but considering the quality of BBQ one can get within just a few miles, Davila's isn't high on my list. I've had the Brisket, Ribs, and Sausage with a couple different sides. The brisket was overly fatty, likely not prime cuts and not trimmed well when smoking or serving. This last time, my brisket wasn't even all that tender. I had to cut it with a knife. Being in the Brisket capital of the world, this isn't going to hold up very well. The ribs were good a couple times, and dry one of the times. So, inconsistent is my rating. Sausage was solid. Sides were normal...nothing stood out, but they weren't a liability either. For the money, there are much better options that aren't far away. As far as the restaurant itself, it's just a weird vibe. Every time I'm there, I feel the same. It's just weird. Very small dining room with limited tables, yet one of the tables in the back has the manager's computer, backpack, etc... on it. There isn't fountain drink option...only canned/bottled drinks other than tea, but you have to get your ice refills from the counter. There are 3 large "shop" fans blowing air around...I couldn't even put a napkin on my lap or my table without them blowing away. Again, not a huge deal...just weird. I hope things work out for them in the long run. I'm always rooting for locally owned restaurants.
