Brisket plate with added sausage, broccoli slaw and potato salad
Chris C.

In Raymondville for business and stopped in for lunch. Self seating so no wait. Rustic rough wood walls inside. Drinks served in styrofoam to go cups with lids. Metal utensils and paper napkins self served from a roll on each table. Drink arrived quickly and order take with drink delivery. Ordered the brisket plate with sausage added, double serving of broccoli slaw ( recommended as awesome) and potato salad. Place was packed with locals so must be a local favorite. It is an all metal building and I found I had no cell reception inside. So don't expect to return calls or surf the web during your lunch break lol The brisket was very good, tender and flavorful bit did not taste smoked. The sausage and side were also very good. I would recommend this place and would visit again if in town.

Tuesday & Thursday thy have a pork loin lunch special that is phenomenal. On Friday they have a fish special. The BBQ here is unbelievable definitely the best BBQ in Willacy County and well worth the drive from Cameron County.

I almost colliding with one when I was coming back from refilling my drink. No one asked these kids/parents to be careful or have them sit down. I would go back for the food. My boyfriend had the chicken and I did taste it. It was very good and seasoned just right. I didn't get photos of the food this time, but when I go back I'll update!!

We also did a sample of the wings and decided they were amazing as well. We had excellent service. Our server was friendly and patiently answered all our questions. It was our first time there, but would not be our last. The owner or manager came to check on us to see how we enjoyed our food. This is another kudos for this management. Ambience was inviting. If we had been able to hang out longer, we would have enjoyed the patio/bar area. Maybe next time. If there was a negative, I would ask them to use something else for the paper on my tray. My paper was soaked through to the tray which is not appetizing to me. Perhaps butcher paper or parchment paper would solve the soak.

Our visit was on a Friday…read moreafternoon (2 pm) there was only a couple of tables with customers so it was quiet with ladies soccer on the tv's. We chose a seat & the waitress came over with menus, we asked a couple of questions regarding food/drink (tea, potato salad & brisket chili) items & was told she didn't eat/drink those things so had no opinion/knowledge. Needless to say we ordered a 1/2 lb of both brisket & beef sausage, potato salad & brisket chili & 2 unsweetened iced teas. The brisket was closer to a slow cooker pot roast than smoked brisket. The potato salad I'm pretty was Reser's potato salad from the premade section at Walmart. The brisket chili had burger meat rather than pieces of brisket but it tasted ok. The beef sausage was the best part of the meal but it was just ok. The tea was terrible & tasted old. Our waitress was lacking in customer service granted she was working the bar with maybe 2 people in the area. Will we go back probably not.

Teddys BBQ: A Disappointing Experience Unworthy of the Top 50…read moreTeddys BBQ, a celebrated winner of the "Texas Monthly Top 50 BBQ Awards," arrived with high expectations that were, unfortunately, decimated by the actual experience. Arriving at 11:10 AM, just after opening, we anticipated fresh, high-quality smoked meats and homemade sides. What we received was an uninspiring meal that leads me to question the legitimacy of its Top 50 status--and frankly, its place in the Top 100. This visit was a letdown, especially compared to the twelve other far superior BBQ joints we tasted this past week. The Meats: Misses and One Minor Hit The foundation of the barbecue here was weak, suggesting corner-cutting or, worse, reheating of old product. * Brisket: This was the biggest disappointment. The slice was terrible--dry, lacking juice, and with a bark that was chewy rather than crisp. It looked and tasted suspiciously like leftovers reheated from the day before, which is unacceptable minutes after opening. * Ribs: Nothing special here. They lacked the depth of smoke flavor and suffered from a distracting, undesirable "hammy" taste. There wasn't much meat on the bone, and the glaze was applied too lightly, failing to add any necessary sweetness or texture. * Jalapeño Cheese Sausage: This was the sole highlight of the meat offerings. It was a nice standard sausage with a good peppery snap to the casing and a satisfying ooze of cheddar cheese. It offered a nice, reliable counterpoint to the lackluster smoked proteins. Failed Opportunity: The Texas Twinkie The infamous Texas Twinkie completely missed the mark. While the basic concept of a bacon-wrapped, cream-cheese-stuffed jalapeño is sound, the execution here was poor. The filling was overwhelmingly cream cheese, which completely sucked the flavor out of the jalapeño and bacon. It was a great opportunity wasted by failing to include a bit of smoked brisket or chicken to give it complexity. Sides: Bland, Bland, Bland The sides tasted uninspired, suggesting they were prepared from a can or box rather than crafted from scratch--an unforgivable sin for a purported Top 50 establishment. * Creamed Corn: It was creamy but utterly bland. It needed significant elevation--perhaps charring the corn kernels or adding some diced jalapeño pieces for heat and brightness. * Mexican Rice: This was mushy and flavorless. It desperately lacked the savory depth and spice expected of Mexican rice. A small addition of pork or brisket trimmings would have provided necessary flavor and prevented it from tasting so generic. Dessert: An Unprofessional Finish The Grapefruit Pie was the final letdown. The filling tasted okay, but the crust was clearly store-bought. To be considered a Texas elite, every component should be homemade and excellent. This felt like an amateur concession. Final Verdict Overall, Teddys BBQ was profoundly uninspiring. Given that we arrived right after opening, expecting the freshest quality, and having recently toured 12 genuinely great BBQ places, this location falls far short. It simply does not belong in the Top 50, or even the Top 100. Teddys has a lot of room for improvement if it wants to justify its ranking.

We enjoyed our lunch here…read more First time at a Teddy's BBQ. You order at the counter as you walk in, then pay at the end of the line, then your food tray handed to you. Two of us shared the following: - Chopped brisket sandwich - 1/2 pound pork ribs (2-bones) - Creamed corn side - Loaded mashed potatoes side - Bread, pickles and onions - Banana pudding - 2 fountain drinks The food was all real good. On the way out, we stopped by the meat smoking area to watch them wrap some briskets. We'd come back to Teddy's.

They are so proud of it that you have to ask the price, really,? Ordered a glass a wine, they only had boto box and it came in a plastic glass, should have returned it, we were clearly in the wrong establishment. We all ordered bbq as that seemed the norm, my mom and I ordered the two meat sausage and brisket and my husband ordered the single meat, when the plate came out the two meat portion looked the same as the one meat portion so my husband questioned it, the manager did come over and try to explain and did bring two more pieces of brisket. but the sausage was horrible the briskest was ok the coleslaw was terrible and the potato salad just ok. We were taking my mom out to dinner for Mother's Day and what a disappointment, this was our first and last time as we were not impressed, there's much better places. Now, the huge potato is the way we should have went but again better places around. Our waiter offered good service just not impressed with the establishment and food.
