    This was my first visit to a HEB BBQ. The food we wanted was not available. We wanted the brisket.at 5:30. It was sold out. The chicken was ok, but had too much pepper on it. I was very surprised you were sold out so early in the day

    Best BBQ. However, Cheryl gave us fatty brisket when we asked for lean. We ended up with half a pound of fat to throw out. What a disappointment, especially considering we paid nearly $70 after tax. When they get it right tho, yum. Just make sure you get the lean or fatty as you want it. Cheryl was new I guess since she also didn't want to give us lemonade instead of tea with the family meal and said no way. We had to point out the menu gives you the option and then she hesitantly agreed. She said absolutely no strawberry lemonade though, even tho when it's available they always offer it. We just let her have her tantrum and told our toddler no strawberry lemonade this time. What a waste of food. I'm sure someone would've eaten all that fat if they liked it. We ended up with half the usual brisket meat which was a disappointment for our visitors and us. Train your employees better, HEB. Good turkey too. Family meal pack is the way to go!

    Honest review, lean brisket was excellent. Taste was great. Not tough or chewy. Crust was perfectly done. I was very impress with their lean brisket. Potato salad was excellent. Apple slaw delicious. Pickles and onions perfect. Cobbler was great too. I’d highly recommend going there again. Price was still high but excellent customer service. Highly recommend.
