13 reviews for Central Texas Style BBQ
Waaay better than average!!
The brisket always has a good smoke ring, smokey flavor and is moist.
The chicken, sausage, and ribs area always great. Love the beans!!
You get a good amount of food, for a price you would expect from any BBQ restaurant.
Anytime you need a lot of good food for an event, think about having Central Texas BBQ, you will surely please the crowd and not kill your wallet!
More Average BBQ. The brisket was dry and tasteless, the sausage was ok, the ribs were their best draw but it tasted like they just sprinkled on lemon pepper seasoning. Not a bad way to go as far as seasoning but not necessarily a correct seasoning for ribs. Their sauce was pretty basic.
As far as the building. It was cool since it literally felt like you were eating in a big house. The tables varied like a bunch of random tables over time. The sides by far were some of the best sides I've had at a BBQ place. The brocolli and cheese casserole was sooooooo yummy. The mac and cheese was pretty normal. But the sides came in these HUGE trays. Pricing was good. 14 bucks for a 3 meat meal, 2 sides, and a GIANT sweet tea.
The BBQ itself is 3 stars, the atmosphere, sides, and price bump it up to 4 stars.
best BBQ inPearland. awesome selection of sides and deserts. this is the place that i take guest for BBQ
Hand's down, this place serves the best food in Pearland. And, judging by the lines that form before meal time, I'm not alone in thinking so. No, it's probably not the healthiest choice you could make...but if you're in the mood for some damn good food, then this is the place to go.
Inside and out, the restaurant isn't much to look at. "Ugly as sin" has been used a few times by my co-diners to describe the color of the paint on the outside and the inside has that really old, really dusty feel with all kinds of crap someone spent a lot of time putting on the walls. This really isn't something I particularly find charming but, since its a BBQ joint, I deal with it.
The restaurant stays busy, which on one hand is good for diners as the sides are constantly being brought fresh out of the kitchen but, on the other, means the lines form early, parking can be a pain, and you're typically going to have a wait a while to get your order. For first timers, the latter isn't such a bad thing as it gives you a chance to review the menu and scope the various entrees that pass by. I personally think its wonderfully designed for the business' sake since, by the time its your turn to order, you're so amped about the food that you really have to fight to not try everything.
Once you do get the chance to order, you'll get generous portions of goodness within minutes. I can't comment on the sausage links (I have a policy) but you can't go wrong with any of the other meats and I expect they are just as tasty. To me, the side orders steal the proverbial show with the melt-in-your-mouth sweet potatoes proving to be the highlight. It is for this reason that I have have neglected, despite the many recommendations, to have any of the baked potatoes. I enjoy the sides so much that I always pass on the BPs because (A.) they're huge and (B.) I don't think I'd be able to eat the side orders the same day.

A Pearland staple, it gets my first 5-star review.
Delicious food and desserts! Cozy home-style decor, the owners are very nice and the portions are huge! Even when the line is long, it moves really fast and I think they have the best BBQ in Pearland!
Wanting a carb overload - go for the giant baked potatoes with gobs and I do mean gobs, of cheese, sour cream, butter and chives. I can get at least 3 meals out of this if my husband doesn't get to it first. A big hunk of jalapeno corn bread goes nicely with the baker as does a deviled egg or two. Be assured, you will get your fat grams for the day too.
For the BBQ part, the meat eaters in my family love the ribs, sausage and brisket - meat portions are ample and unless you are really hungry usually enough for a second meal or at least a snack.
The BBQ, bakers and deviled eggs fill us up so haven't ventured over to the sides or desserts. Tthey don't look that great to me (e.g. canned corn). They seem to be popular though and watching the line as people order, they seem to order them like crazy along with the main course of meats.
This is a great place to quickly pick up a meal to take out and eat at home when you feel like not cooking. Everything I've taken home, reheats well.
No matter how busy and crowded it appears the staff can get your food to you in a heart beat. They are friendly and efficient. Kitschy décor - the ambiance here is not what I like when I eat in a restaurant - thus have just gone here for take out when I'm in the area
food is great. owner is very nice as well. great service. baked potatoes are big. eat in or take out, either way you can't loose.
Been going to this place since I was in Jamison Middle School. This has been one of the best places in town. I would recommend this to anyone. The baked potatoes are insane!!!
Wonderful home-cooked bbq, veggies, side and desserts!! The chopped sandwich, mac and cheese and bread pudding really hit the spot.
Best of all, the customer service was superb!! For a place where you wait in line to order, then seat yourself, you'd think that wouldn't be very important. But the few people I spoke to (the order taker, cashier, and busboy) were all so very polite and attentive.
I live about 5 min from this place! Great food, let me rephrase that....AMAZING food. same staff for years and you can feed a family of 4 with the baked potatoes! It's also in the heart of where Pearland started.
This place is a real gem. Great 'cue out in the woods. Real home cooking with a country flavor. Had the two meat plate with some awesome links and sliced beef and two sides. The broccoli-rice casserole hit the spot. Owner was really kind and attentive and a real people pleaser. I'll come back when I'm in this neck of the woods.
Love this place! Some great barbecue. Great desserts.
This is a great place to eat. The restaurant is family owned and operated and have great service. The restaurant is decorated by various memorabilia but doesn't quite suit my fancy. I would definetly recommend the sausage and is probably one of the best i've ever had but i would definetly recommend the mashed potatoes for a side. The rest bbq is quite tasty as well
