Being from FL and moving to TX, we wanted to try some good BBQ, since we know TX is well known for it. We asked and researched and decided to try Mac's for the first time, we enjoyed it very much! The total for our lunch was a bit more than we expected but both my husband and I left happy, full, and saying we'd visit again.

The brisket and rib was melt in your mouth, and I was surprised to hear that he doesn't add salt and pepper or anything to his brisket, yet it is delicious. You can really taste the mesquite and love that he puts into it. Why Bill Millers (not bad but not authentic like this) has a line around it and this place doesn't is beyond me.
