My daughter and I were in the Burleson area for a basketball tournament. She recommended we try…read moreHard Eight BBQ because she wanted ribs for dinner. We were greeted by Marcell and he walked us through picking out our meats and sides. He was so kind with amazing energy!! We picked ribs, sausage, a chicken popper and a few slices of turkey. Everything was great but the ribs were tops!! For sides, we got corn on the cob, beans, fruit salad, potato salad, coleslaw and the best mac n' cheese my daughter says she has ever had!! Our tummies were so full of deliciousness that we took our apple cobbler and Oreo mud pie (or two!!) to go. Tina checked on us at our table, cleared my tray and even brought us some toothpicks and plasticware for our to go desserts. If we are in the area again, we will eat at Hard Eight!!

I had ribs and pulled pork. Loved them both. The ribs were a little dry but packed w flavor. The Mac and cheese is a hard pass. No flavor. The free soup is amazing. Staff is always friendly and welcoming and they give military account. Overall amazing and I will be back.

The menu was on a large video display. There were lots to choose from and the prices looked very reasonable. I ordered the "Moo-Oink-En-platter. It included all of the meats on the menu, two sides and Texas toast. I chose the potato salad and red beans. I had the banana pudding for desert. My wife chose the "Kids plate, chop beef sandwich with Red beans for her side. She had the peach cobbler for desert and said it was all good. There was not one item I did not enjoy as it was all very good. I rated them 5 and my wife gave them a 5 as well. Give them a chance and tell us what you think.

We almost didn't wait but so glad we did. So one of the guys came out and did a menu introduction and a Goldee's intro as well. Without futher ado here's the order: 2 lbs of brisket 2 links of Lao sausage (Sticky rice/fish sauce) Kale Cole Slaw Potato Salad A subtle smell of seasoning & traditional seasoned Texas Post Oak smoke rolled out of the front door... At the counter we were greeted with two gentleman slicing and dicing all the proteins. A tray stacked with the goods we made our way to a table. First bite of brisket without sauce.... Perfect, literally the way I think a brisket should be served hot dripping with juices. No one asked what type of cut or the dreaded "lean or wet" question was asked nor was it needed. Brisket and sauce was just as delectable. The bark was well rounded never offensive or bitter. The Lao sausage was a well received addition though maybe not the compliment to the brisket. Sides: Potato Salad was straight out of a Bavarian Beir Garten with the green onions and vinegar. Excellent touch to cut the rich meats. Kale Slaw again was another great addition with the cutting hint of ACV. Excellent well rounded rendering of the Texas tradition of fall apart smoked meats. I'd say the #3 ranking Texas Top 50 BBQ joints fits really well. I'm going to recommend and suggest this Brisket to strangers near and far. Job well done.

If you like a stronger black pepper taste in your bbq then I think you'll like it. I do think their subtle asian twists on bbq is cool and unique. Ordered: - Brisket - They give alternate half and half lean vs moist. It was good I liked it. - Beef Ribs - Mom was interested in trying it so we got it. I'm just a pork rib girl more than a beef rib girl. - Pork Ribs - Unfortunately, it wasn't as "fall of the bone" as other places. It may have just been the piece we got, but the one we had was 70% bark and 30% meat (if that make sense, I prefer more of a true 50/50 split) - Lamb Ribs - Not something you see at every bbq so we got some to try. I liked it. Can't decide which one I like more between pork vs lamb ribs. - Lao Sausage - Their sausage is kinda big. I felt like 1 sausage is the size of 2 sausages at other bbq joints. It's serves with sticky rice and honestly it works really well. - Mac & Cheese - A bit heavy on the pepper. It was alright not my favorite mac and cheese. - South Carolina Pork Hash - a unique side that is special to them. Pork Gravy over jasmine rice. Too mushy for me. - Lemon Kale Slaw - It was alright. Not my favorite slaw. - Banana Pudding - Yummy. I really like their banana pudding. It had a slight cinnamon and almost graham cracker taste to it. - House made bread - Yummy. Almost like a sweet roll meets white bread. We went on a rainy Friday morning. Arrived at 9:30 ish, got our food and seated by 12:30 ish. Asked the dude first in line what time he got there and he said 7:30ish. People abandon their lawn chairs so they had a decent amount near the entrance of the store that people just borrow while they're waiting. When the rain got bad, they let customers wait in the covered area where they store the smokers which was nice.

They wanted to meet me just so they would have a good reason to go eat there. It's one of those places that you get kind of addicted to because they do things so well and you feel so welcome. It's pretty cool place though it's I think it converted Dairy Queen from back in the day definitely an upgrade on the culinary side of things versus a Dairy Queen It's cool.

The rolls are hot, fresh and tasty as always. Got a complimentary cobbler and ice cream from the rewards program which was the highlight of the meal. From eating at other more "craft" BBQ joints I feel like Spring Creek is a bit over priced for quality. Usually get served enough at the craft BBQ joints to have leftovers to take home. This Spring Creek seems to be getting a little run down as well. A door in the Women's Restroom was broken and had to be manipulated to be able to close and lock. Several fixtures in the Men's were leaking water.

Country Music played while a lot of Seniors ate their lunch. Actually, George Strait's infamous song, It Ain't Cool to be Crazy About You was playing as I was leaving.
