Wright's BBQ — Restaurant in Mexia

I was in Mexia Texas on business and happened to mentioned that I was hungry and had been looking for some meat on the grill. The lady suggested Wright's BBQ. I went in and was greeted when I walked in. The place was clean and neat WITH NO FLIES. Three (3) people ahead of me. The menu had too may choices for me. I told the young lady that I knew that I didn't want any sausages, (I have to watch my pork intake). I decided on the ribs and brisket. Collard greens and HOMEMADE potato salad. I paid for my order and stepped aside so the customer behind me could order. He was a regular and got the peach cobbler. I went back ordered the Peach Cobbler. I should have gotten at least 2. But I didn't sample it before I left the restaurant Mexia Texas. But I do plan to return. I'm actually thinking about calling to see if I can get a WHOLE COBBLER. The cobbler, had me rocking from side to side and humming. I said all of that to say this, Wright's BBQ, in my opinion, is worth the 50 miles I traveled from Palestine for business, to just to taste the peach cobbler. The meats were good. The ribs were not dried out. The beef brisket, yes was good. If I get the chance to return, I hope to remember to ask for my brisket with some FAT on it... One more thing, in my opinion, the meats were seasoned so good that I didn't need OR use...

WoW! Talk about a hidden gem! We went to Wright's BBQ for the first time tonight and we cannot believe it took us so long to hear about them! As soon as we walked in, we felt welcomed. I'm going to tell you, we were hungry and between the two of us we got some pulled pork, brisket, hot links, ham, cole slaw, potato salad, sweet potatoes, and beans - and every damn bit of it was UH-MAY-ZING!! My goodness, they know their stuff at Wright's BBQ! Their restaurant is small, but cozy and - most importantly to me, it is clean. Despite leaving with full bellies, we are already looking for to our return! ...

I really wish I had taken some pictures but almost bit my damn fingers trying to get them in my mouth. I went through there today little after lunch. sat, 11/04/23. around 2pm. I eat BBQ just about where I travel. They are definitely as good or better than alot of places I have been in Texas , thats including all the BBQ in Lockhart , Austin, waco, Dallas, Houston, cowtown, I'm not going to mention names but I think Wright's should make the Tx monthly list.I had pork ribs and brisket. The flavor was great. Just give them a shot you might be...
