In the back country roads of Linwood Texas lies some of the best BBQ champions! We will go across the country for these BBQ pork ribs! The brisket is in a tie with Lewis BBQ in Charleston. The bacon mac& cheese will turn you into an addict. I feel sorry for the vegetarians of the world, the food here is amazing (I am a conditional vegan ). We tried the Stanley Williams Burger, which had 1/3lb burger with 1/3lb brisket, egg, bacon and more fixens, this burger changed our life. So just send it, bring your BBQ-lover friends and family, sit back and just enjoy! If you are looking for one of the best BBQ joints, come here! And do Inhave to mention it’s family owned and operated, which are my favorite stops. Thank you guys! We’ll be back.

Off the main highway about a mile and WELL worth the short drive. Loved the salad options and appreciated the gluten free choices.

Wife and I arrived Friday evening May 12, 2023 around 7:30 PM. They were planning for a live concert in the music venue area, but there was plenty of seating to be found. When you first enter you walk through like a cafeteria style and order your food, receive it, and pay for it right there.

Family of three here. 2 adults and a child. We had the brisket loaded potato, delicious. The brisket was well moist the potato was a good size. The kid had the single patty cheeseburger and ate it all! Her fries were always good. Not soggy or overly seasoned. We also had the 2 meat platter with jalapeno sausage and brisket. Brisket was still good. The sausage was okay. For the sides we had Mac and cheese, good!

Overpriced! It was $60 for 3 people to get 2 meat plates and a drink. Sadly, the food wasn’t good for all the money.
