Number 10 is owned by an Aggie that posts on Texags.
Yes, #6 (1775) is good. Best in B/CS. It's a food truck by the Brazil's River on HWY 60.
Made a trip to Mathis for Butters. And it was good.... not top 10 or even killens good but it was the best in corpus area I've had.
My buddy is the exec chef at Guess Family - but I've yet to eat there.

Blood brothers is pretty good too
The lack of research is glaring here.

If you're ever in downtown Waco, Guess Family bbq is a must get. Their chipotle jalapeo sausage is the best I've ever had and their brisket is great.
Second the 1775 in CS recommendation. Reveille is on my to do list.
Been to 6 of them...
Black Box
Brotherton's
Brett's
Pustka
Helberg
The Switch
Have had some samples of a few others. Going to try to catch Butler's next weekend on my way home from Rockport.

Top 25 seems like a huge number. How many notable new BBQ restaurants can there be in a year. Top 5 would be more meaningful.
1775 is fantastic. Y'all idiots need to stay away so I don't have to wait in line.

Care to elaborate further?
Keep in mind, this is based on 2 years since the last list. In reality, I can count at least another couple of dozen places that opened up that aren't on the list...
It's a great time for Texas BBQ. Rejoice and try some new places you've never heard of...

Switch is Aggie owned also. Same guy that owns Stiles Switch in Austin off Lamar.
#21 Smoke Sessions is fantastic! It's been in a trailer parked at a Royse City feed store/hardware store but they just moved and are in the process of acquiring a space for a restaurant. They have some really good items. The brisket is amazing and the spicy garlic sausage is equally delicious. They do Parmesan crusted ribs, brisket burritos, brisket philly cheese steak, and smoked Mac and cheese. It's by far the best in Rockwall County and maybe in all of North Texas.
Reveille's in Magnolia is also really solid.
Guess in Waco is stellar. Moving in to permanent location soon.
Sorry but Blood Brothers,at 4 is funny. When ur best item is mac and cheese u got problems.
Their food is gimmicky and Asian fusion.
Brisket...not a top 30...not worth eating really.
Brisket fried rice...novel way to use left overs but execution is lacking.
Saltgrass ribs are more tender than here.
HEB makes better chicken.
Their sauce has a ton of mustard and sux.
And its crazy expensive.

Butters is awesome
I eat at Guess every week. I even met DoubleE65 there several months ago.
The list is in Alphabetical order by CITY, not by ranking. So they could be 1stnorn25th, or anywhere in the middle.
Harlem Road is good. We lack for good bbq down in that area. I've only been once, but I was not surprised to see it on this list.
#9 needs to advertise on the Politics board.
Been to 1775, LJ's and Brett's
All are good in their own way and we'll deserved.

My ancestors who immigrated to Texas in the 1850s are rolling over in their graves at the notion of barbecued octopus being served in Texas. Has to be a communist plot.
Here's my plate from LJ's in July 2018. Brisket, turkey, ribs, mac n cheese, and beans.
Reveille checking in at #12. Coincidence? I think not

The Witt Pit in Rosenberg is great, and the sausage at Galvan's in Richmond is excellent.
I live just a few minutes away but have never been. I never see anyone in the parking lot. Guess we'll have to try it.Jefe07 said:

Let's go, Brandon!
Went to Brotherton's in Pflugerville today for lunch. Brisket was moist and tender. Could have used more smoke/crust for my tastes but overall it was good not great. Had some sausage as well and found the flavor ok but a little bland for my tastes and the skin was a little tough - but overall better than say what you would get at Rudy's (wurst sausage of any TX bbq joint...pun intended). Sides of beans and creamed corn were ok but uninspiring. BBQ sauce was very good for my tastes - YMMV. Overall it was good not great bbq in a convenient location for me without a wait at 12:30pm on a weekday. I'd go back, but it's not a "destination" joint at this time.
As a comparison...I really like Stiles Switch style BBQ with a little more flavor all around.

I agree - drive by it pretty frequently and it looks closed 95% of the time.
You're right. I should revise. We lack for snooty list-worthy bbq in that area. Galvan's "worker's special" is my jam for a cheap chopped beef sandwich. But I thought I would be barbecued (hey-oh!) for saying that on this thread.maverick2076 said:Jefe07 said:

I really like Witt Pit for everything except their sausage. Tasted like generic store bought stuff. And I'm not a sausage snob.
I think it's only open for lunch Thursday - Saturday or something. So it probably is closed a lot of the time that you'd drive by.Alta said:

Joints ate listed ilby alphabetical order of their CITY.
I offer to sacrifice myself and give #16 a try.
