If you get the brisket right in Texas, you're in the ball game. This place nails the brisket and is in the big leagues with other notable places in Central Texas. Sausage is purchased from a place out of Elgin (can't recall name). Ribs are solid, but a bit over cooked as it fell off the bone. Sides are a bit up and down, but the potato salad was head and shoulders my favorite. Service is welcoming and warm. Meat Rating: Brisket - 5 Ribs 3.5 (but can taste a 4) Sausage 3 Sides: Potato salad - 5 Three cheese Mac n Cheese - 3 Corn 2 (because it feels like came from a can and slightly doctored up - nothing bad, just canned corn Dessert Banana pudding - 3.5 Overall rating: 4 It's located .5 mile from airport. If someone is new to central Texas BBQ and this was their first time trying it, I think this place would leave a favorable impression. The brisket will certainly stand up. I'll be back.
Better than Blacks the hype is real highly recommend I had the brisket plate and banana pudding for dessert don't miss out great place
I had the ribs and they were amazing... sides were also delicious. (Mac Cheese/Corn off the cob) Stop by here if you're in the area.
Great food! Had the 1 meat 2 sides with brisket, Mac &Cheese and beans. The owners are the nicest people and the servings are very generous. Easy to get and very close to the airport.
Hole-in-the-wall legit Texas BBQ. Tender, moist brisket and amazing sides. No frills, just tasty meats! I'll be back!!
I work nearby and I've driven past this place many times. I never noticed it until today when I looked up food nearby for lunch and I had to keep an eye out for it as I drove. it's so easy to miss, which is a shame because the food is good! I was torn between the brisket or pulled pork quesadillas, and the cashier told me immediately "brisket". then I asked if I should get the baked potato I saw online, and she said they were sold out! so I have to come back next time to get it because it looks LOADED and it looks GOOD. she asked if I wanted pico on the brisket quesadillas, and I said yes. like of course lol. I also got a small 6oz mac and cheese. quesadilla looked like a typical quesadilla, but it was actually so good?? it came with a side of barbecue sauce, which I wasn't expecting. I also didn't expect the combo to work so well, but it absolutely does. they were generous with the cheese, generous with the brisket, but I wish they had added more pico in the quesadilla. the mac and cheese was cheesy, thick, creamy. I couldn't tell you which cheeses were in it, though. menu said three cheese mac and cheese, and I didn't ask which cheeses were in it. I will go back. I need to get the baked potato I saw online. if you're looking for a lowkey spot for some good barbecue for lunch, come here!
As soon as we landed at the Austin airport we hit up Henry's Bbq and it was unbelievable. My new go to, food is magnificent, big portions and great service. Highly recommend !!
Great pulled pork sandwich...bun perfect, meat so tender and alot of it! Potato salad and banana pudding were very good as well. Great BBQ right off the plane...just what I was craving!
Now inside a storefront in the same location. Great home style bbq! Tender pork ribs, tasty 3-cheese mac 'n cheese, and chopped brisket taco were my choices. Good value, flavorful and delicious. Service is prompt and polite.
Everything about this place is interesting. It's bright next to the airport. I don't even know how to describe the location. I arrived at 11:00, when they opened, and all their customers were businessmen who i'm guessing we're "in the know" for great barbecue joints in Austin. I got what I always get. The brisket, rib, sausage plate. If i'm gonna check out the barbecue joint i'm gonna check it out. All the food, everything I ate, was great. 2 slices, 2 ribs, 1 link, fresh corn off the cob, potato salad. A little overcooked and pricey. The meat fell off the bone, I mean fell off (over cooked). The plate and can of Coke was $26.
