  ​If you’re looking for a spot in Edinburg that treats brisket like a fine art form, Ace’s BBQ is the place to be. Here is a breakdown of why this spot is a local heavy-hitter. ​The Meat & Sides ​The Brisket: This is the undisputed star of the show. It’s got that perfect, salt-and-pepper heavy bark that melts into a beautiful smoke ring. It’s consistently tender enough to pull apart with a plastic fork, yet holds its structure—the mark of a true pitmaster. ​ The Sausage: Snappy, juicy, and packed with flavor. Whether you go original or jalapeño cheddar, it’s a solid addition to any tray. ​The Mac and Cheese: This isn't your standard boxed fare. It’s rich, incredibly creamy, and the ultimate comfort food pairing for the smokiness of the meat. It’s easily one of the best versions in the area. ​ The Atmosphere ​The vibe is exactly what you want from a BBQ joint: unpretentious, welcoming, and smelling like heaven. It’s the kind of place where you show up, grab a tray, and leave with a "meat coma" and a smile. The staff makes you feel right at home from the moment you walk in. ​ The Verdict ​"Ace’s BBQ isn't just a meal; it’s an Edinburg staple. If you’re a fan of authentic, low-and-slow Texas BBQ and top-tier mac and cheese, do yourself a favor and get there early before the brisket sells out."

  Ordered the catfish. Let's just say, it is now my go to for catfish. Hard to find a good catfish if not my own, but this was 10 of 10, and I know my catfish! 👍❤️

  I had a very delicious Cuban sandwich with tasty Mac and cheese. Very good food and especially kind, helpful and friendly service. Unfortunately, I left my bank card there. Once I retraced my steps, I called and spoke with Delisa(forgive me if I got it wrong)who had secured my card and was very kind to me when I retrieved it!! Thank you all so much for your delicious food, wonderful service and most importantly, your honesty!!! I will be back!!

  Ask for Delissa to get the best service. The brisket just melts in your mouth. Ask for the 1/2lb of moist thick sliced. On Monday they have chicken plate with 2 sides(extra crispy fries) and free preach cobbler(ice cream is extra).
