I'm not a native of Texas so I'm having trouble finding good bbq, I was born and raised in Louisiana which is totally different that the stuff they call bbq here in Texas, Ok first I disliked the fact that this one man in the trailer was closed up preparing my food we could not see what he was doing red flag, next the brisket was dry and unseasoned, the ribs had big bones in it which adds to the weight when you purchase by the pound which means you get less for your buck, the sausage I would say was the best part however it was slightly salty, we purchased the 3 meat for $15.75, now be aware that you can purchase the 3 meat with potato salad and beans for $15.25, when we asked what the difference in the $0.25 we were told you get more meat since you didn't want the sides in your meal, when we got our package with our food the package was less than half the size of a full plate but we paid for a full plate of meat, we will not be visiting this place again, lastly there is a snow cone stand right next door to the big 6 bbq trailer, these guys sell excellent snow cones you will be better served buying a snow cone than spending good money on bbq you can do at home yourself. being from Louisiana I cook a better bbq than these guys, if you like bland food please stop at big 6 bbq, but if you love well seasoned bbq cooked right, find yourself a true Louisiana resident living...
Read moreOrdered a 3 meat plate. While the brisket was cooked to the right tenderness..it lacked smoke flavor. Almost pot roasty. (Wood was used, as you can visibly see it burning on the firebox on the side of the trailer). Ribs were also tender, however lacked smokiness as well + the rub was too strong. The (homemade..) sausage was the one gleam of light. Had a nice texture and was on the border of being dry..but wasn't. Had a decent moistness. Bbq sauce too sweet for my taste, but to each his own when it comes to sauce, as I prefer my bbq without it. Potato salad was good. Beans were also good. I cannot speak on the remainder of the meat (chicken, etc), as I ordered brisket, ribs & sausage.
When I arrived..I ordered through a dirty screen that i couldn't see through. The person continued to take my order like this. Would've been nice to put a face with the person taking my order. He opened it once it was time to take payment. Also, it took almost 10 minutes to put my order together. This is a bit too long, considering I was the only customer. Nonetheless, the young man taking my order was very courteous & respectful.
I would've given a higher rating..however the total lack of smoky flavor did it for me. Afterall, when I lay down my hard earned money for a craft such as smoked meat..I expect...
Read moreI first found out about Big 6 BBQ while attending the TriStar show at NRG. They were the closest food option there (Chick-Fil-A was closed already 😐) after walking around for hours. The staff there were friendly and quick! I had gotten the BBQ nachos (don’t remember what it was called exactly), and let me say that it was THE TRUTH 🙌🏻
After looking them up online, it said they had a location close to home! So I made it a goal to check them out one day going home from work. Today was that day. I tried their BBQ Brisket Burger today… and they DID NOT MISS 🤤 And also, the gentleman (I believe he’s the owner) who helped me was very welcoming!
I am not sure why this establishment isn’t more talked about! They should be on the same level as Turkey Leg Hut! I know its 2 different things, but still. As a matter of fact, I’d eat here before I eat at TLH (nothing against them). We need all the Houston foodie bloggers to check this place out and help get them noticed.
My new favorite BBQ spot. I will...
