Goode Company BBQ

First sweet tea and first Texas BBQ! We were brought here by friends while visiting the area and they said that locals love and reference this place often. The atmosphere was great. Felt like a destination and the food was good. The potato salad had a mustard base, the cole slaw was not overly dressed, and the meat was soft and tasty on its own. The sauce was more tomato based than tangy so I used it sparingly. The sweet tea was so delicious I must have drank my weight in cups that day. Fermin was working the covered and fanned patio where we sat and he was extraordinary. The entire time he took care of us as though we were at a 5 star high end restaurant. He held the door open for us, cleared our plates, offered refills, and was incredibly pleasant. I'm so happy we ate here. The atmosphere, food, and having a Houstonian experience was all nice and Fermin, took it over the top. He was amazing.

Hands down one of the best BBQ spots in Houston. The brisket was insanely tender with that perfect smoke, the sides actually hit (not an afterthought), and the portions are solid. Probably the best mac and potato salad I’ve had — creamy, balanced, and done right. Service was quick, friendly, and the whole vibe feels classic Texas. Also random but true — I was literally sitting here checking my NOVA vehicles and they’re still making passive income while I eat. That’s a win. ✅ — @drivewithnova

Our first Texas BBQ. Visiting Houston for the first time, and our friends took us here. We told them we wanted to try a spot that the locals consider great BBQ, and it didn't disappoint. I had the brisket with mac&cheese and jambalaya texana. So, SO GOODE! Oh, I almost forgot the jalepeño cheese bread and banana pudding - WOW is the only way to describe those! The service was outstanding. Easy to order. Sat outside on the patio and although it was a hot day, the covered patio and the ceiling fans made it comfortable. Definitely going to have more Goode Co BBQ when we return to Houston!

Hard to go wrong here, but I recommend the loose brisket and jalepeño cheese bread. If you ask for it chopped, they won't be using an ice cream scoop to dish out last week's beef/sloppy joe. You will get brisket, cut-to-order, chopped in front of you. Try the jambalaya for one of your sides. Pictured is a pound of loose brisket. If you prefer lean brisket, I'm afraid I can't help you. But they have it. Also famous for their pecan pie. My favorite BBQ in Houston for decades now.

I was in the area and decided to stop in for lunch. I used to frequent Goode Company BBQ when I lived nearby and remembered it always being pretty good, so I decided to give it another try. I ordered a chopped brisket baked potato. Right away I appreciated that they prepare the potato properly with the sauce on the side. At first, the portion of meat looked small, but once everything came together it was just enough and it tasted fantastic! 10/10. I'll definitely be visiting again soon.
