Taste of Texas Barbecue - Tracy (CA)

5 /5 Chelle T: A line into a small building and a wonderland of awesome barbecue. We were expecting dry meat but to our surprise, it was excellent. We chose pulled pork, beef ribs, beef brisket, jalapeno sausage, mac and cheese and cole slaw. All were great. Service is nice and efficient. There are tables with shade to eat outside. Get the tres leches for dessert.

1 /5 Amit Lal: I am baffled by the positive reviews here. Im concluding 2 reasons for the positive reviews: 1. Individuals dont know what actual BBQ tastes like or 2. Just friends of the business My experience: We got 3 items, brisket, sausage & coleslaw. Brisket: Brisket is supposed to melt in your mouth, buttery and smooth. This was the opposite. The skin was soft, but the meat itself was not; it was dense, dry, thick cut, and did not melt in the mouth. We didnt eat it, $40+ wasted. Susage: It was ok. The skin was extremely hard to chew. Coleslaw: The only item that tasted decent. Unless I went to the wrong spot or got the wrong meats, this place is mediocre at best. I recommend that the owners visit real BBQ locations to learn how briskets are cooked and what their taste, texture, and consistency should be. I am glad I didnt spend $350+ for their Christmas & or New Years meals, would have regretted it.

5 /5 T Shelly: I’m very impressed. Hidden gem deserves your support. Family owned and operated. Only BBQ place within 20 miles that I’m aware of and it might put the competition out of business. If youre looking for the ultimate BBQ experience, look no further than this incredible spot. From the moment you walk in, youll be transported to a world of smoky, savory goodness that will leave you drooling with anticipation. But the real star of the show here is the brisket and pulled pork. Both are cooked to perfection, with a rich, smoky flavor that will have you coming back for more. The brisket is so tender, it practically melts in your mouth, while the pulled pork is juicy and full of flavor. But its not just the meat thats outstanding. The sides are equally impressive, with a range of classic BBQ sides like coleslaw, baked beans, and mac and cheese that will have you feeling like youre at a backyard cookout with friends. I also tried the jalapeño grits which are delicious. And lets not forget about the atmosphere. The casual, laid-back vibe of the place will make you feel right at home, while the friendly staff will make sure youre well taken care of. Outside seating only but you’ll want to soak up the sun anyway. Overall, this BBQ joint is a must-visit for anyone who loves good food, good company, and a good time. Your taste buds will thank you! Parking - tight Price - expensive Value - 5/5 Return Value - 5/5 Service - 5/5 No bathroom available and the closest one is a mile away.

5 /5 Blair Hupcey: Best BbQ I have had in Northern California! They catered several events that I was hosting, and all the attendees were raving about the food. We ordered the pulled pork, brisket, and ribs and they all were perfect. They delivered the food on time and were extremely helpful for setup. The family that owns and operates this business are truly amazing and sweet people. Definitely try them out!
