Texad Best Smokehouse Italy Reviews
If you're ever in the area, be sure to stop by this Shell gas station. Their restrooms are so beautifully decorated.
The guys working there tonight (6/30/21), were really cool and courteous. The brisket and chicken were delicious. I got beans, Mac and cheese, AND potato salad and they were tasty. No lie, the food was really good. For dessert I got banana pudding and I wasn’t disappointed. The free 32oz drink was the cherry on top.
This place is amazing since I stepped in very friendly staff. Grabbed the Monday special and received a free dessert. Food was on point thank you for the fast service. General manager and other young lady were so kind and courteous WOW we sure need more kindness in this world and will sure return again. A must visit location. Thank you for providing me with WOW customer service.
We stopped at Texas Best Smokehouse and were really impressed. It’s gas station BBQ, but honestly, it’s really good. We had the brisket tacos and the 2-meat plate with brisket and pulled pork. Both meats were tender and had great smoky flavor. The sauce was solid, and the mac and cheese and loaded mashed potatoes hit the spot. Definitely a great place to grab a good, satisfying meal if you’re passing through!
As a truck driver, finding a good meal after a long day on the road can be tough, but this place is an absolute gem. The food is fresh, flavorful, and satisfying—exactly what you need to recharge. The service is quick and friendly, making it an ideal stop when you’re on a schedule. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for quality and comfort on the go!
OMG!!!!! When they say everything's bigger in Texas, BELIEVE THEM. My only complaint is that it didn't come with a pillow and blanket. By far the best baked potato I've ever had. It was so tender, creamy, and buttery. Cheese, sour cream, and chives.... perfect. And a mountain of fresh tender juicy brisket w/ bbq sauce to top it was the finishing move. I'm claiming this as my go to restaurant. Highly recommended!!
This place was definitely amazing I was trying to figure out what I wanted to eat then a gentleman asked me if I wanted to taste test a piece of brisket so I had to buy me two sandwiches great service and the workers were nice and friendly they even had their own type of BBQ sauce the brisket was juicy and tender
The food baked potato the bbq is great! The place is clean and a great environment! However golden earrings with the crosses isn’t friendly and its distasteful him being on his cell phone in public view especially in a food to hand etc environment. This is bad health wise and bad for a buiness in the public eye. Also as a employer your paid to work not be on your phone. But its not my company but saying.
Definitely eat here! Our potatoes were delicious, and the sides were decent. The banana pudding was not homemade, but it was okay. Mac-n-cheese, green beans, baked beans, and roasted corn were lightly seasoned, so I think that would appeal to a lot of people. As far as the potatoes, we agreed that fresh chives would take it up a notch. We will eat here again!
The drive back home caused for a stop for gas and a light bite to eat. Texas Best Smokehouse definitely made the stop worthy. From the harmonizing of the Mom & Pop country singing duo, the guy and lady at the barbecue station along with the cleanliness of the store and restrooms. My sliced brisket with a sampling of smoked turkey sammich *used when it's so damn good* was so moist, tender, and flavorful. Y'all this was a stop to be repeated each trip down 35E in Italy, Texas.
The ribs are so full of meat that when I tried to pick one up, it started falling off the bone. Not just tender but heavy with meat as well. I'm not really a rib person, just wanted to try them but I'd put them at 8/10. I got the mild BBQ sauce because I'm not a fan of spicy BBQ sauce. It's pretty good. Not the best. Probably a 7/10. I also got half a pound of pulled pork and shredded brisket. The brisket was terrible. 1/10 in my opinion. Maybe I just got a bad batch. Tasted like burn wood. The pulled pork was pretty good though. 7/10. If I want ribs, I'll definitely be coming here again. I would have got banana pudding but, like most places in this world, their banana pudding is 60% whipped cream. I hate whipped cream. Why does every place put so much? I want banana pudding. Not whipped cream with a hint of banana cream. Why does every place put so much whip cream in banana pudding. Madness I say. Madness. /rant
Worse brisket I've ever had, but good sausage and sides.
My experience was not the best. While I didn't finish my meal, I did appreciate the quality of the mac and cheese side dish. Unfortunately, the meat was pretty dry and lacked flavor. It can be disappointing when the star of the meal falls short of expectations. That being said, the mac and cheese was well-made and offered some comfort during an otherwise underwhelming meal.
Here's an idea "Texas BEST," Maybe start telling the truth when you say you're open. I made a stop here specifically for y'all and you're not even open despite saying you are here on Google. I understand you were closed because of the weather, but how difficult is it to just update your hours listing? I could have stopped anywhere on 35 but I picked here cuz I wanted YOUR BBQ and you're not even here.
