Brisket & Rice

I had had this place on my must-visit list for several months. It’s a small spot, but thoughtfully laid out. As the name suggests, their specialty is rice and brisket, though they also offer a great variety of sides and main dishes. We tried the fried rice and the brisket, along with the street corn and coleslaw. The brisket was outstanding—I can confidently say it’s among the best I’ve had in Texas. The Asian-style fried rice, with its distinct Texas twist, was something completely new to me and an absolute stroke of genius. Special mention goes to their mustard BBQ sauce, which is simply delicious.

Our 1st time visit here. We had a rack of ribs, the sausage they make and a chicken leg quarter. The meat was all excellent. The ribs had great bark and was literally fall off the bone. The sausage had great flavor, mild in my rating small amount of heat. Chicken was moist, great flavor, skin was also perfect seasoning. The smokers were using oak, I believe.The sauce is the only thing I think the team could improve on. I would have liked a hotter sauce. The red sauce was sweet, the yellow one had a mild heat. The slaw was tasty, my wife is the biggest fan of slaw but I recommend , it is part of traditional smoked BBQ. The site has adequate room for indoor and outdoor dining, this is a great time for outside. Not sure if it had room in the summer heat, outside, even though shaded, there is an asphalt parting lot next to it. I wish the establishment was closer to where I live (45 min. away). I will definitely be back again for more of the same.we did have leftovers as pictured.

Came here for the first time with my family. Always wanted to try this place since seeing a video of this business. We ordered their most famous and recommended Brisket and BBQ Fried Rice. We also ordered the Mac N Cheese, and their Beef Rib (sold only on Saturdays). Everything was so flavorful and delicious except for the beef ribs which I was so looking forward to smashing. It was not tender at all and half of it was super dry and almost beef jerky-like. Very disappointing. We made the 2hr drive just to check this place out too. Overall, decently priced for very tender and flavorful brisket and fried rice. Adding the complimentary sauces enhances the flavor as well. The staff are very friendly and fast. Lots of tables to dine on, but the outdoor seating area seems more spacious than the indoor area. Large parking lot and a set of private restrooms.

It was my first time in Houston and I found this place while searching for what to eat. I’m so glad I did because it was delicious. I especially loved that I could eat it with rice😆 The brisket was tender, and the sausage was flavorful without being too salty☺️♥️

We finally made it out to try the brisket and fried rice and it was worth the drive. We tried a little bit of everything, the brisket was fantastic. Nicely rendered, seasoned well, tender and moist. Ribs were fall off the bone and nicely seasoned. Sausage was juicy with a nice snap. The sides were a little hit or miss. I honestly didn't care for the poor man's mac or the mac and cheese. The first was just meh, i really expected more flavor. The mac and cheese was not very cheesy and just bland. However the corn was great. The baked potato salad was surprisingly good and the chilli was tasty. The fried rice is definitely the standout. Overall very enjoyable and I would say a little more reasonably priced than other BBQ joints.
