Citadel BBQ

Was staying nearby hotel and walked over to grab lunch. There was only a few people in there when I got there, but the staff was friendly and the burger was made to order. Brisket was moist, mac and cheese was creamy and had a Mexican flare to it. Prices were very reasonable. They have a full bar as well and a TV.

The prime brisket was fall apart good. The Mac n Cheese was melt in your mouth good. I just finished eating it and I miss it. Understaffed so it was a little slow but the staff were so nice. Great way to end a stressful day at MD Anderson. I'd take a pic but I ate it all!

We came for lunch on a Wednesday. It was not very busy but we still waited 10 minutes to get to the counter. It was very quiet. Hubby had the gumbo and I had red beans and rice. Both were tasty enough that we will come back.

Citadel BBQ is LIT! We ordered 1 1/2 lbs of brisket (Moist) hence the fat Sliced Turkey sandwich Chopped Beef sandwich Mac and Cheese And Banana Pudding. I have nothing negative to say about any of it. The brisket was moist and pull apart, smoked perfectly and does not need BBQ sauce. The sliced turkey was so tender and moist we ended up ditching the bun and eating the sliced turkey. (As pictured the tiny bits of turkey were from trying to fork pieces to family members to try) The Chopped beef sandwich was delicious and is generally a staple when I try any BBQ place. I relate it to cheese pizza, if your at a pizza place and they can’t deliver on a slice of cheese pizza then the rest probably won’t be right. I immediately took my sandwich apart to make sure it was all brisket (you would be surprised what I’ve found) it was all coarsely chopped brisket that’s sauced up just perfectly. The sauce to brisket ratio was perfect you could still taste the brisket and had just a hint of sauce. This place has done things right, and you can tell. Excellent food guys! Thanks for the help and the conversation!

Went over about an hour and half till close. Unfortunately at a hospital stay. The food was OK but not for the price. Got brisket baked potatoes. The potatoes were not cooked well and were hard in a lot of spots. The brisket for the potatoes was definitely chopped way before I got there. The half pound of brisket was OK. I would not go again. I will also concede maybe if you went earlier in the day it would be better. I am not willing to try.
