    PIG Cheesesteak
    Rick K.

    Order at the window and get some bbq dropped off at the bench kinda place. I would love to give them 5 stars but I was disturbed by the amount of fat in my brisket sandwich. It was about 1/2 brisket tender meat and 1/2 pure fat - see photo. I can't do pure fat. Now for the positive, the service and staff were great. They quickly resolved the issue and suggested I request lean brisket on my next visit. The brisket sandwich (once I removed the huge fat component) was really tasty. The sandwich they brought to make up for the fatty one (lean brisket) was also delicious but more on the dry side like you'd expect. I think somewhere in the middle would be amazing!!!! Sweet tea hit the spot. I would give the P.I.G. Cheesesteak a "meh" rating and not worth the price.

    We chose Two Goose for brunch this past weekend! The first thing I noticed was the friendliness of the entire team working. We were greeted with smiles, we were thanked for stopping in, and everyone genuinely looked happy to be there. I always love seeing people who love what they do. We ordered an iced latte, burnt ends, the cheesesteak sandwich, mac n cheese, and the biscuits & gravy. I was very content with the quality of their coffee. I ordered an iced latte with chocolate syrup and it was easily one of the best coffees I've ever had at a bbq spot. Our order came out fairly quick considering the amount of food we got lol I started with the cheesesteak. The texture of the bread was crazy. Super crunchy and light which went well with the richness of the cheesesteak. I'm not a cheesesteak girl, but I'd eat this cheesesteak every weekend if I could. The burnt ends were fantastic. Very tender, sweet, moist, and peppery. Our picky 3 year old ate a ton of it and we were shocked. He even ate all the leftovers for lunch! Huge fans of that. Not a fan of any type of biscuit so the general consensus was that it was very hearty, tasted fresh, and was just an overall quality biscuits and gravy. Lastly the Mac n cheese! 10/10 no notes. I hid it from our toddler so I could eat it alone in peace later lol. We've added Two Goose to our brunch rotation

    My fiancé and I met another couple here for lunch and it was tasty! We were lucky to find parking in the little lot in front and ordered quickly at the bar. All of the seating is outside, although some is covered, and the food comes out of a truck. There are Yeti coolers with water for customers. We were initially confused, because Google said they were closed. However, we checked instagram and saw that they were very much open. Nevertheless, the owner(s) should probably update that! Speaking of owners, the owner was walking around through the tables checking on people the whole time. He was also going back and forth to the truck, bringing people their orders. He was really friendly and personable! The food itself was pretty tasty. My burrito was flavorful, and my fiancé got some cuts of meat that were cooked very well. The only miss for us was the home fries, which we expected to be crispy, but they were boiled soft instead. It's also dog friendly!

    Pulled Pork Sandwich

    I am honk honking after eat lunch here. First off the Mac n cheese changed me and I can't imagine getting it anywhere else, it destroys terry blacks and everywhere else in Austin. Secondly, the pulled pork sandwich hits sooooo hard with perfectly crispy creamy jalepeño slaw in it. I absolutely have to come back because word on the street is out and they had already sold out of the breakfast tacos by the time I got here at noon. The owner is here pouring his love into the spot so pull up with the squad and give some love back. They got bench seating and shade and you'll prob see me here again soon.

    Iced Vanilla Latte

    I've seen Two Goose making moves in the Austin food scene recently, and I knew I had to be the first Yelp Elite All-Star to give it a shot. I have followed them on socials since the end of last year and had been delaying checking them out, but I wasn't going to let that last any longer. Located off North Lamar across from BookPeople and REI, near the old Waterloo location, sits the blue, red, and white setup split between the main building where orders take place and where coffee and pastries are served, plenty of outdoor seating both covered and uncovered, and the food truck where all the food is served. It feels like a little oasis and one of the cooler hangout spots in the area. Most barbecue places serve breakfast at separate hours from lunch, but when we arrived around 10:00 am, they were slinging both breakfast and their Kraft BBQ Market lunch menu, which starts at 8:00 am. My buddy and I both went for one of their breakfast burritos. I got their most popular burrito and the one that has been making the most waves online, the Big Honkin, served with brisket, egg, potato, cheese, and their sunrise sauce. I also ordered an iced latte with their house-made vanilla syrup. It took them mere minutes to whip up my latte. It took a little bit of time to get our food out, but to be fair, the place was pretty busy. They sold out of breakfast about 30 minutes after we ordered. We got our food roughly 20 minutes after placing the order. I'll be blunt. This is easily the best barbecue breakfast I have ever had. The chopped brisket was tender and sweet and balanced perfectly with the softness of the eggs and the starchiness of the potatoes, with the cheddar cheese adding a sharpness to the entire thing. For $10, it was an extremely affordable breakfast offering, and the size was so large that I stayed full for most of the day. I made the mistake of wanting to continue experimenting with their menu. I went back and ordered a side of Nana's mac and cheese and a link of their Black Garlic Cheddar Brisket Sausage from their Saturday Kraft BBQ menu. About 15 minutes later, I was handed a sausage link, a slice of bread, a side of mac and cheese, two barbecue sauces named BBGoose and Carolina Mustard, plus pickles and onions. The sausage link was pretty good, though nothing revolutionary like the breakfast. The flavor was well-rounded and the bite was juicy. The mac and cheese was maybe a little too cheesy, but I know plenty of people who would find that right up their alley. The BBGoose sauce was sweet and excellent. My cousin joined my buddy and me a little while later and ordered The Big Dave, a brisket sausage cheesesteak with smoked queso, black garlic cheddar sausage, and grilled onions. That thing looked insane. She could only manage half before boxing it up to take home. There's a lot to like about Two Goose, and a lot of it I did not even get to try. During the weekdays, they run a blue-collar combo that gives you a one-third pound of any meat with a side and a drink for $15. They can afford this by using cheaper cuts during the week, which makes it worth a visit for lunch in a barbecue scene where prices keep climbing. I think it's genius. They also have tons of sandwich and breakfast options, plus grab-and-go items. These guys are going to keep getting bigger and sell out faster every week. You'll miss out on being into them before they were huge if you don't go now. Trust me. RIYL: The best breakfast you can order in Texas from a place with a name that may not be grammatically correct, but quite frankly, I don't think they care.

    This is tough position to be in. Been following two goose since they opened and couldn't wait to come back to Austin to try them out. As soon as we landed I dropped my family off at another local bbq spot to get in line and ran to grab a snack while we waited. Two goose was a must try on our two day trip so boom no questions two goose for pre bbq snacks. I call while driving and place a phone order and I'm told 10-15 mins. Cool I'm 7 mins away. I arrive, pay, and go stand by the truck/trailer. The owner comes and chats and gives me a sample of brisket while I wait. Cool the hit fresh brisket was solid. I told him it was damn good crust. At this point 30 mins goes by and they ask me if I'm waiting for something. I tell them yes my food. Mind you I was originally told 10-15 mins. Then they say they gave the food to the wrong person and say it's the girls first day. Probably should offer some training if it's her first day. Anyway, they remake the food and it's up in like 5 mins. Not sure how it took 30 to give it to the wrong person and 5 to fix it. Anyway at this point is almost 10:50 and the place my family is waiting for me opens at 11. So now the "snacks" are pointless. I ended up reheating them to at least same them and well the eggs and burrito really don't reheat well. Sadly while the brisket fresh was good. My overall experience really wasn't. Based off the food I'm paid for and what I tasted on that it was 2.5 star. Honestly idk if I even got the right food and it sucks today was a bad service day for them. While I'm sure when things are good they are great but today was not it. Because I live in Atlanta this impression will stick till I'm back in Austin maybe a yr from now. I was very patient and respectful. I didn't keep asking about food, I didn't get rude or mad. I waited as patiently as possible will being admit I needed to go and this was supposed to be a pre meal snack. I wanted this to be a 5 star visit so bad!!! Update- Aaron (owner) reached out on ig and stated his disappointment with my review and felt they made extreme accommodations to satisfy me. Which was simply remaking the order they gave to someone else during normal business hours. Then refunded me after my review of an honest experience was shared. Update 2. Even after stating I would give them another try I guess that wasn't good enough so the owner blocked me on social media. As someone not from the industry he's going to have a hard time if that's his approach.

    Burrito
    Iman Z.

    This is going to be my new favorite breakfast burrito spot! These burritos are huge and packed with flavor. The brisket is tender and the potatoes are seasoned perfectly. I made it through about half the burrito before I was full so you are getting your money's worth. I took the food to go but there's plenty of outdoor seating. The staff were super friendly and checked on how people's meals were. The parking lot isn't huge so I can see it being chaotic when it gets busy. I definitely will be coming back!

    Brisket, ribs, strawberry jam pork belly burnt ends, their redline pork sausage, and the big Dave cheesesteak
    Christopher W.

    The pork belly burnt ends and redline pork sausage were the standout items here. Their big Dave cheesesteak was also delicious and was a huge sandwich that I was able to split into 2 meals. The ribs and brisket were Smokey and delicious, well rendered and didn't disappoint but I couldn't say it different to most TX bbq places. The service was good but parking is very limited. I can't wait to come back to try some of their other daily specials.

    Cole slaw, potato salad, brisket, turkey, chicken, pork belly, sausage
    Anthony R.

    Holy cow! Hit this place up for sure. I had a company event/bulk order and placed a 100+ order of some breakfast tacos and believe me they did not disappoint. Everyone kept asking where they were from because they were some of the best they had. They were filled to the brim and had such great flavor (not even to mention the salsa that came with). This ain't no two bite taco either. Be ready to munch down when you get a couple of these guys in. The Honkin tacos were such a big hit! I'll definitely be ordering from here again. Great/responsive service and even better food. Highly recommend!

    Overall solid experience at Two Goose. First off parking is a bit limited. It's a cool set up with outdoor seating (and shaded). The food was solid. I went for lunch and got one of the special sandwiches. Forgetting the name but it was smoked tender ham, pimento cheese, pickles on Texas toast. This was so goood!!! The ham really was the star. Makes me think the bbq is well done. Because of how salty the ham was the amount of pimento cheese was a bit overwhelming but again it was a solid sandwich. The owner (former Aggie) walked around checking on customers which I thought was really thoughtful! Curious to try breakfast and the bbq plates!

    We were on our way to a different place when we spotted this little gem. We were immediately drawn to the outdoor seating. Sitting outside and watching the rain was pretty cool. I should've taken a pick of the seating, it was a cute little spot with a bar. I got the 1/2 lb brisket which was very tasty and tender. I made a sandwich with the pickles and bbq sauce, sooo delicious! The tartar salad/ potato salad was so frickin good too! I had the banana pudding as well which made me melt a little lol. My husband got the Big Dave's which he loved, great flavors! The bread hits your taste buds first, buttery herb flavor. We are definitely coming back here. The service was everything you want in customer service. Super friendly, perfectly attentive and made us feel very welcomed. I love great customer service and this place delivered . I highly recommend this cute spot!

    Family and I were on the creek walk and passed a guy who recommended this place to us. We weren't super hungry, but had to be sure to get some good Texas BBQ in before we left. We WERE NOT hungry, but we couldn't stop eating this stuff. Some brisket and pulled pork was phenomenal. Highly recommended spot! Price was good (we are from WA State, so all the prices in Texas were good. Haha!). Staff was attentive and nice!

They wrapped each taco individually in aluminum foil to keep it warm which was a nice touch, though they didn't bring out the red and green sauces until we asked for them. Brisket Taco ($9): The brisket was a bit dry but the slice was pretty thick and it paired well with the acidity of the pickles. Carne G Taco ($6): Super cheesy and heavy. The flavors weren't bad but I felt pretty gross after eating one and it left me really bloated.

This spot was close to my hotel, and on my departure day, I decided to have one last hit of Q. It's a big restaurant, and it appears to also be quite the music venue. When I went, a little on the early side for a Friday dinner, there was not a wait and I was sat immediately. My server was attentive, and got me in, fed, and back out in plenty of time to catch my already delayed flight. I ordered their 3 meat combo plate, which also came with two sides, and added on a piece of cornbread. I chose brisket of course, as well as turkey and sausage. The server recommended the serrano pepper spinach (like a creamed spinach) and onion rings, and I took those recs. The best of the three meats was the turkey. Not a good sign. It was moist and tender, though not particularly smokey. Even so, I enjoyed it more than the brisket and sausage, which I would have guessed the reverse when ordering. The brisket was on the dry side and kind of bland, it did not smack of being freshly carved. The Stubbs BBQ sauce helped me eat some of it... now I see why they are famous for their sauce. I had a couple bites of the sausage and pushed it aside, I didn't enjoy their recipe on that at all. It was cooked seemingly well, but the blend of spices and meat they use wasn't pleasant to me. The sides, the onion rings were very crispy which I like, but again... something in the batter. Maybe even the oil they were cooked in, I did not enjoy as much. The spinach was actually quite enjoyable, maybe even a little rich. I think if it were warmer, if might help milden out some of that. It was really thick. The cornbread wasn't worth the add-on. No sweetness or anything to make it memorable. Vessel for butter. The portion was massive, and I had leftover food, but did not take it... and that would have been the case even if I wasn't headed to the airport. I wouldn't recommend this spot.

    I came here for the beef ribs and they did not disappoint. Are they expensive? Most definitely, 2…read moreribs cost $54 (they weigh them so prices can vary). Were they 100% worth it? ABSOLUTELY. When I tell you these ribs were a religious experience I am not embellishing. Full disclosure: I do not currently live in the south so I don't consider myself a BBQ connoisseur, but I did spend 4 years in the south and have sampled many BBQ joints in the meantime. Take this review as someone who really enjoys BBQ (and any slow cooked meat for that matter) but who could not list more than 10 BBQ restaurants they have eaten at in the last 5 years. So the beef ribs. Great texture, tender meat but still had a bite to it. Expertly seasoned so they were not wet with sauce but still moist. I would consider 1 beef rib a snack, 2 a small meal. I also tried the chopped brisket (brisket and burnt ends sitting in a soup of BBQ sauce). That was also delicious (and more reasonably priced), but I could have done with slightly less sauce. It really was like a soup and while the sauce was tasty, there was too much of it. I went later in the afternoon (around 2/2:30pm) and got their last two beef ribs so going earlier is better. You order at the open kitchen and then pay at the counter when your food is ready. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, you can take your food and sit at any of their tables of which they have many (this place is pretty big).

I got the 3-piece dark meat meal (15.25), and a refillable drink ($3 but you can keep the cup). My meal was ready in under 10 minutes, and could see that everything was freshly made. The hue on the chicken was beautiful --- it's not just a crust, that's some batter on Gus's chicken! The okra and the collards passed the test (DELICIOUS), and I was hoping for the chicken to be as "world famous" as I've heard. THE CHICKEN DID NOT DISAPPOINT. The crunch was undeniable, the slight heat from the marinade was present, and overall flavor was simply...pleasurable. My rule for chicken? Always get the dark meat. I took my souvenir cup with me, but I can finally say I tried Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken --- and it is world famous for good reason!

    Server forgot our coleslaw though she repeated it when taking the order. Surprisingly, it was also…read morenot on the bill so I'm kind of bewildered by that. Chicken is good, as always & this location is clean & spacious. Good food & clean space They forgot our coleslaw & they knew they did Will only come back if needed -

    I have had good BBQ brisket before, at least so I thought, until I had Franklin Barbecue. This was…read morethe best barbecue brisket and pork ribs I've ever had. We tried the brisket, the pork ribs and house sausage. The brisket and ribs were fall apart tender and impossibly moist. The moistness was what struck me as different and more delicious compared to other barbecued meats I've had. They did keep the meat wrapped in foil until presented to the customer, which must help. The brisket is only seasoned with salt and pepper so the flavor of the meat and smoke comes through. The ribs are also finished lightly with bbq sauce, still preserving the meat flavor. They do offer four different barbecue sauces that are quite delicious. Bread and pickles are free, as are ice and water. Line wait data point: Went on a Tuesday (they are closed on Mondays) got there at 12:20 PM and it took just 80 minutes to get through the line. Left just after 2pm and there was no line - and few if any meats left.

    Every city seems to have their hyped joint when it comes to food. A lot of times, it really is just…read morea tourist trap with an average cuisine that does reflect what's been shown & talked about. Well, I can tell you that Franklin BBQ lives up to the hype. The BBQ is legit, I had the lean brisket and wow! Delicious, flavorful & tender. A must have. There were other offerings specifically the jalapeño sausage which was the first item to sell out. Get here early and be prepared to queue up. It's a slow process. For one they are very friendly at the stations. They welcome you and usually have someone outside informing the customers of the various options & answer any questions. Stay hydrated if you come during the warmer months with the complimentary water jug station. Is it a tourist trap, yes. Is it worth waiting over an hour? Yes. A final note it's communal sitting inside where there is AC. There is also an outside sitting area. Overall, you can't go wrong stopping by. As you can see from my previous ratings, I rarely give 5 stars, as a matter of fact this my first one. Take it from what it's worth. - Buen Provecho!

    Amazing food! Ordered from here for a family gathering and…read morethe food and service was excellent!! Highly recommend!!

    This order was delivered to us for a catering event. The ordering process was smooth and efficient…read morewhile also being delivered at the scheduled time. For fifteen people, the total cost was $425.69. This included delivery costs and taxes, but no tip. It consisted of three meats, two sides, and a dessert along with pickles, onions, bread, and BBQ sauce. There was also a set of utensils delivered, but plates were forgotten, but not a big deal. Brisket - This was definitely the best item eaten of the day. It was tender and juicy while adding the BBQ sauce giving that extra bite. The BBQ sauce was great regardless, a little bit of sweet and smoky flavor going on. Pulled Pork - This was another solid meat choice. I did not think it was as tender as the brisket, but it was still enjoyable especially with that BBQ sauce, which was key throughout the meal. Sausage - This was not bad. The snap on this threw me off a little, but it was not too bad. They were large links and had plenty of flavor. Gouda Mac & Cheese with Smoked Bacon - This was actually penne pasta with little pieces of the bacon. I actually preferred this pasta choice here. It really soaked up the cheese sauce. The sauce was not too over powerful and was just right. Beans with Smoked Bacon - These were not too bad. I thought they were a little liquidity, but the added bacon pieces definitely helped. Banana Pudding - This came in individual cups, which was nice. The pudding was thick with a little meringue or whipped cream present and a few wafer cookies on top. It was a satisfying ending to a very good meal. Will I go back? Yes.
