What are some good BBQ shops in the Jersey Village - Cypress area and Spring Branch? I have been goon for 35 years. Thanks

Virgie's BBQ on Gessner just south of Tanner.

Feges BBQ
2 Guys 1 Pit

I read somewhere that Killen's is opening in Cypress where Burro & Bull was located.

Not sure how Killen's is handling quality control with the number of restaurants he's opened. Not to mention the fact that if you follow him on social media he's basically been on a different vacation every week this year....

And not spring branch, but I'd make the 10 minute drive to Truth.

I haven't followed them in years. I'd rather go to Roegels or Pinkerton's than either one i mentioned as well.

Feges is pretty solid in the Branch

Can confirm. Used to be on TX Top 50 list. Was very good last time I had it. Has been a minute though.

I feel Virgies is more about the pork. I work 5 min from there and have had it a number of times. If you're a beef bbq guy like me, I'll pick Aunt Pookies any day, and that's not to say Aunt Pookies is particularly outstanding. Virgies got the pork, for sure, but their beef is not worth the drive for me. Just my opinion.

How is Carl's BBQ off 290 and Telge? I passed by that the other day on the way in and smiled that it was still there. That was solid hangover food about 25 years ago when there wasn't sht for BBQ in Houston.

No. No. Just no. Forget barbeque, that place is a hygiene disaster.

I remember liking the burger.

I'm right here in Spring Shadows and the BBQ I cook in my backyard is better than anything around here.

So the answer is my backyard.

Not Spring Branch but Heights area so not far … Pinkerton's as mentioned earlier. Went to Gatlin's on TC Jester and it was pretty good. Went to Fege's in Spring Branch soon after opened, haven't gone back. Get to Pinkerton's early.

I'm in Spring Shadows too. Let me know when to come over and how much beer to bring.

Yup was a solid burger back when I was in HS. Would hope it's still good but would be afraid that I'd go and be disappointed like I was recently with Willie's burger.

The last time I went the place smelled like raw sewage. Haven't been back.

Is 529 BBQ still there?

529 was legit back 15-20 years ago. Haven't been that way in quite some time cause that area sucks.

Gatlins is on Ella

Carls BBQ is still money on the burger. The scallop potato's as well.

For BBQ head to the ace hardware on barker and 529. Brooks BBQ. Show your CCL and get a discount.

This is no joke - they have some top notch BBQ. Then go across the street for some churros

Brisket and Rice off of 529 and Eldrige.

Why has no one mentioned Goode Co BBQ?

I've been wanting to try this Brisket and Rice place, yelp reviews look good

Brooks

Another fan of Virgie's here.

Correct. Taking over the bull and burro or whatever it was called at Kroger and Spring Cypress off of 290.

I'm a huge fan of Roegel's on S. Voss.

Roegels is really good, and it's a short drive from spring branch. His daily specials are legit.

Feges is good but isn't your typical bbq joint. It's more like a restaurant with smoked meats. That's not a bad thing. At all.

Really, really good people own and operate both those spots so it's easy to support them.

Went for a late 2pm-ish lunch today and it was great. The fatty brisket was phenomenal and the ribs were excellent.

10% off if you have a holstered firearm and show your carry license. Dude was cool and has pro-gun and anti government stuff up all over the place. Seems like someone who has been effed with before and wants to make sure it doesn't happen again. This will definitely be my go-to bbq place from now on, esp when the weather gets better.

He hosts cigars & bourbon on Fridays too - walk up and socialize with like minded folks. Interesting guy to talk to, and def doesnt put up with anyones sh*t. Will turn away heehaws with saggie drawers and bad manners
