Texas Pete's Barbecue Joint Papamoa — Restaurant in North Island

Really liked the food, ordered the 3 meat plate. Brisket was moist and falling apart, seasoning was ok, still smashed the salt on it cos that’s just how we roll, chicken wings delicious and hot, good flavour too. Smoked pork ribs yummy and tender. Chips were standard, to be expected after having to take them home. Bread rolls fresh and fluffy, got the cheese sauce And the gravy, smash that on with a bit of brisket, bread roll, coleslaw and pickle. Lessgo!

Also bought the fried chicken Roti Harker, was yum as. Sambal sauce nice and spicy and heaps of pickled onion, coriander too.
