Stopped here because it's true pit barbecue, and the place has a great reputation. It's a quasi self-serve/counter order (boudain in the warmer; ladies behind the counter making plates and sandwiches). Everybody was friendly, and the service was relatively fast. I ordered a rib sandwich and grabbed a spicy boudain for the road. The rib, which is chopped for the sandwich, was somewhat dry, though it had decent flavor. Interestingly, one of the folks at my table got the full ribs, and they looked moist and divine. Perhaps my chopped version was in the warmer too long? -- I'll update this review once I rewarm the boudain and go at it, but I will say that it looks and smells wonderful. This is a combination convenience store/gas station/barbecue joint. For the non-Texans out there, sitting at a long table with a roll of paper towels and a bottle of hot sauce is part of the experience. It's old school and outstanding. read more

Damn good BBQ here. I usually stop on the way home from a Prairie View visit. The interior and exterior is no frills but the BBQ itself and side dishes have been on point. I usually get the pork ribs and chicken. read more

Myself with a couple of friends stopped in for lunch. One had a brisket sandwich, the other a loaded baked potato, and I had a sliced sausage sandwich. Everything was great. Huge portions, great customer service and comfy seating. Waller County Line BBQ is a must stop when passing thru on Hwy 290. read more

7.29.25 I stopped in to pick up dinner for me and my hubby. The BBQ is always good but, $50.00 (b4 tip) for 2 people is a bit much for BBQ. (And I did not buy dessert this time) I know meat and everything has gone up in price ()but at some point we will have to set our own level on prices we are willing to pay. We will still eat here but not as often. read more

As its name indicates, this BBQ joint is located in Waller County, just west of Houston. The family decided to stop in for lunch, because it was just off the highway and what Texan doesn't like barbecue? Very relaxed, open place that is reminiscent of old food stops from days past. Friendly and very efficient staff got our entire order completed pretty quickly. Definitely a great job on service. So the food... I got the chopped brisket sandwich with pickles and onion, pinto beans, potato salad and boudin balls. The brisket was tasty with tender chunks and bits of charred meat. The side of sauce, pickles and onion finished off a pretty decent sandwich. The pinto beans and salad were fairly disappointing- bland and not amazing in any respect. Against my better judgement, I got the boudin balls - thickly battered and fried way too hard. The sausage and rice mix inside was spicy and flavorless at the same time. How is that possible? I washed everything down with a Sonic hard sweet tea with lemon. Again.. meh. Overall, the bbq, which they're known for, is what made the experience. I'd revisit just for that. read more

Brisket was super dry and fatty , food is overpriced. The potatoes looked good but didn't get that. Save your money.

First and last time here, I heard the food was great but no one told me the service was so horrible. Lady out front on Saturday around 12:15pm don't even acknowledge I exist. Then lady comes from backing eating like she is at home, then man with cowboy walk from back and stars grabbing a bag of ice meanwhile i been waiting for about 4 -6 minutes to take my order... I just left! If I am going to $18 for a baker potato's the service better be solid. read more

Went inside to order Togo, ordered a chopped brisket stuffed potato, with a side of pulled pork which is done by the weight not a set price. And it was delicious my husband and I split the potato. Service was quick and food is made in front of you so it's clean. Overall would come back really good bbq! Only complaint is the type of bacon bits used. read more

I gave this place a high rating because of my first impression. I was running errands on my motorcycle when the weather turned bad. I saw this place on my way home from Brookshire. I have passed by there hundreds of times before. Cata cornered from Buc-ee's @ 290 & 362, there's 2 businesses here. Cedar Creek Saloon & Waller County BBQ, which is in a gas station convenience store. The bar is separate. It's a typical little local bar with friendly folks. I saw this poster promoting an upcoming event. I was rained in & after a couple beers I decided to check out the BBQ place next door. I saw the poster for the Waller Dog and was feeling adventurous, so I ordered mine with Jalapeños. I'm glad I stopped in! Probably not the healthiest lunch I could have had but it ended up being a good little diversion. I might just come back to watch the wrestling! read more

Dont listen to the bad reviews, this place is an absolute gem. Brisket and loaded baked potatoes are the way to go!! I always get my stuff to-go read more

Brisket was clearly reheated and old. Ribs had no smoke ring and not much flavor. Sausage was good as was pinto beans and potato salad. Cool old school Texas atmosphere but I won't be back $32 for 3 meat plate and fountain drink. read more

The food is amazing! My loaded baked potato was a piece of heaven! My husband's chopped beef sandwich was great! During a previous visit we tried the pulled pork and coleslaw - both winners. The reason for only 4 stars is the long, long, long wait in line to order at one of two windows, where it it very difficult to hear what they are saying. If that system was improved this place would be a 5. read more

Waller County Line BBQ - The loaded baked potato - Barbeque Near Me - Waller, Texas

The fact that y'all were lying on this barbecue place is crazy! This is probably some of the best barbecue I've had in Texas. If you are from the East Coast or like that really savory southern type of barbecue, this is the place for you. I got the chicken breast potato salad, baked beans and a spud. Everything was so delicious. The barbecue sauce was amazing. I of course, have not been here multiple times, but I cannot say this place ever will disappoint me. The service is OK, but I'm not really here for that. I'm here for the food. The ambience is like any typical southern barbecue joint. It's just tables food and a few drinks. Definitely don't stop here looking for snacks. That's not what this store is for. This is a barbecue joint for sure. I would post pictures of my food, but it's gone. Lol read more

While I have eaten good gas station BBQ, this was mediocre at best. The service was not bad but very slow I am not a fan of Buc-ee's BBQ but would fight the crowd for that instead. WCL can be better but needs to step up read more

Nasty baked potato. Swimming in Oleo butter and cheese was velveeta? Green onions .... were OLD. The meat sauce nasty. $14.00 for potato and I was starving. The potato was so hard along the edges and bottom, clearly sold me a 1 Lb hard potato sitting out all day. BBQ ... nope. It is better to say they are out of food than to sell that low quality. I was starving - running late - decided to just stay away. Rudy's Killens ... is soooo much better. read more

I've been driving past this bbq place for years traveling between Austin and Houston but never stopped here until today. I read some of the previous reviews and had hesitation about this place but I was hungry and figured it had to be better than Buccee's bbq. I was wrong. I don't even care for Buccee's bbq but it is better than this! First of all, why is a "FAMOUS PIT BBQ" that boasts "THE BEST BBQ IN TEXAS" using this fake hard imitation bacon on the potato instead of real bacon??? The sliced brisket was very flavorless and had more fat than actual meat! The whole potato was bland. The only thing that halfway helped was putting some bbq sauce on top so it could get some kind of flavor. Oh shoot...I can feel my stomach doing something after eating some of this potato. Save your $17 and either go across the street to Buccee's or find something else. ANYTHING ELSE but this! read more

For decades, I have been stopping in Waller County barbecue to grab a sandwich and a drink when driving down 290 but what I got today tasted like unseasoned leather in barbecue sauce, this is what I would expect if I went to another state calling themselves Texas barbecue, even the buc ees across the street has better barbecue, what a shame read more

The lady at the register was rude as hell. Was on her cell phone the entire time and had an attitude with us because I had questions. Like I was in the wrong for interrupting her conversation with her friend about a tv show. The lady serving the food was really nice. The food and the service wasn't good enough to warrant coming back and the lady at the register should find a non customer facing job because I wasn't the only one who she was rude with. read more

The ladies in the back are wonderful - super friendly and efficient! There's typically a bit of a line, but it goes quickly; they make each plate as it's ordered. The food varies depending on what you order. They're famous for their loaded baked potato and this is absolutely what you should order there - I suggest with brisket and sauce on the side. Their mild sauce is definitely on the sweet side and while good, can overwhelm a bit. The potato is huge - you can easily split with someone - and they'll split it for you for $3 (worth it). I didn't love the Boudin balls. The ribs and brisket were decent on their own, I don't recommend the sides. This is technically a gas stop but there's plenty of space to eat there on well kept tables with plenty of paper towels. Bathrooms are nice. read more

We stopped in here on 12/9/22, the night before my daughter's graduation from PVAMU. This is pretty good bbq. We had the loaded baked potato with chopped beef. They give a huge annoy of meat, but it was pre-mixed with bbq sauce. I typically like mine on the side. Hence the rating... We also had the smoked Boudin- now that was pretty flavorful! I actually asked my daughter to bring me some when she comes back to Dallas. read more

Waller County Line is that lil hood spot that always hits. Don't expect the best service or to be chatting it up. Look at the menu and know what you want. You can sit inside and eat if you want, there's a bunch of tables but it's just a lil picnic tables but that's ok! The meat is always good! I always get the potato! read more

Don't waste your money. We wish we hadn't stopped. Two days later and we are still talking about how disappointing this meal was. We went for BBQ today at a local Houston BBQ joint just to redeem that horrible experience and wash it from our minds. We actually asked each other what was good about the meal and sadly the only things we could say were: the onions and the tea. Green beans tasted canned, the boudin balls were left uneaten, and the brisket, and turkey were nothing special at all. It was a sad experience overall, and expensive to boot! read more

Go to Bucees across the street and instead!! What a sorry excuse for Texas BBQ, hands down the worst BBQ I've ever tried. Nothing was smoked, brisket tasted like it was boiled, everything else was dry and bland read more

Good Ol Fashioned BBQ. Across the highway from buccees. If you want a brisket sandwich don't go to buccees, go to WCL. Get the brisket, ribs, baked beans and green beans. You can't go wrong with anything here. Service is great and the gas station the restaurant is held in says, "Country". Try it out, you won't be disappointed. read more

Food was good. Service was good. Traditional Texas BBQ in a convenience store. These old places are fading away. The Shell in Boerne was demolished a few years ago. So try one these while they are still around. New big businesses are trying to copy but they will never compare to these original places. read more

Traveling on 290 take FM 362 exit across the freeway from the Bucees sits this gas station with Waller County Line BBQ inside. It was my first time and definitely will stop by again for some delicious grub. If you're craving good BBQ, check out this establishment. The fully stacked potato is large enough for two with some tasty brisket hits the spot. Outside, and inside dining. Community style tables inside. read more

Food is really good. I have been going there for years always amazing !!! The baked potatoes it delicious highly recommend it

Avoid this place. The staff is extremely rude. Horrible service!!! Shanaynay at the front counter was obviously to busy with more important things on her phone she couldn't acknowledge me when I went up to the counter. I can't blame her though, I'm sure she was on the verge of trading a stock or something. She also switched my order for turkey with chicken, but again who am I, the paying customer, to distract her from her doings. Over All the food was cold but ok. I myself will 100% never be coming back here. read more

Tried to eat my $10/link of boudin simply out of spite, but couldn't even force myself.

After a hard day out in the pasture, nothing like the smell of some BBQ to get your senses going! My brother swore by this place saying the sausage sandwiches were worth the stop so on this day I took him up on the claim, but first let me paint this picture. I have passed by this establishment more times than I can remember even when this area had a four lane country road from Hempstead until you reached Cypress. In addition, the Saloon attached to the joint was not screaming hey stop here for some good ol' BBQ (wink-wink), but I trust my brother's judgement. To my surprise the inside was set up like a little country store with red checkerboard table coverings in the eating section, a small area where the foods was served and a choice of home made desserts. I had two sausage sandwiches, one jalapeño the other mild and no I did not eat both of them in one meal. You get enough meat to be able to stretch two sandwiches from one order. I recommend having your condiments on the side because they are plenty and easy on the hot BBQ sauce. read more

Can't call to place order. Tried online wouldn't let me tried on the app wouldn't let me. And I'm tech savvy imagine the older gen, this is elder abuse to them and honestly a slap on the face for me saying we do want your business after I called and Marsella said "ohh" as a response to the only service not working. Called the mgr straight to voicemail. All I got to say is y'all some hoes. read more

Never again! This place was absolutely horrible, I am not sure why people believe otherwise. We stopped by on our way to CS and I should have just starved. I got two meats ("smoked" brisket and Turkey) potato salad and green beans. The brisket was dry, the turkey taste like it was boiled, why is the potato salad sweet? But not relish or pickle sweet, and the green beans was the only decent thing there. We also got a baked potato with pulled pork. The pork taste like what you fill tamales with and over priced. At $16 a potato there should be real bacon, not imitation. The bbq sauce wasn't hot it was cold and thick. Felt like they put SBR in a cup and then a little hot sauce in the "spicy". So lazy and disgusting. read more

Waller County Line BBQ - Left it just like this - Barbeque Near Me - Waller, Texas

This bbq spot is inside a gas station and has tables in the back of the store. There are hand sanitizer and napkins everywhere. I ordered turkey sandwich with extra jalapeños and slaw on the side. I topped my sandwich with the slaw and that was the best decision ever. Their slaw is THE best I've EVER had in any restaurant or eatery ever!!! People come far and wide for their baked potatoes, but the real crowd grabber should be the slaw. After every other bite I kept saying, "but this slaw though!?" Honestly, I wrote the review and gave 5 stars to the slaw alone. Side note, the bun literally fell apart as I was eating it and couldn't stay together. The turkey was a tad dry but the bbq sauce gave it some life. Lastly, this place was a bit pricey for a gas station bbq spot. read more

We drove by this place and the smell of smoked meat lured us in. We had a stuffed potato with pulled pork, a stuffed potato with sausage and a 3 meat plate with chicken, Turkey and sausage.

I live in Washington state and I still brag about the food I had at this place! read more
