Avis sur 1701 Barbecue Beaumont
My first time buying from 1701, the barbecue was truly delicious! I hope to return soon!
This food is amazing!! Some of the best BBQ ever !!
The food was absolutely delicious. This is my go-to spot whenever I’m craving BBQ and Redbirds is closed or too far to drive. The BBQ is consistently great, with bold flavor and just the right amount of spice—you can dial it up as much as you want. Highly recommend stopping in and giving it a try!
Stepping into this barbecue joint, a recipient of the prestigious Texas Monthly Top 50 BBQ award, you immediately get a sense that you're in for a treat. The atmosphere is inviting, with a clean and well-decorated interior, plenty of seating, and a friendly staff. But the real test is the food, and this place truly delivers on its reputation for solid Texas barbecue. The brisket was everything you want it to be: juicy and flavorful with a well-developed bark. It had a classic, hearty taste that made for a great main course. The pork spare ribs also had a great, flavorful bark, but they were a little on the tough side. They weren't the fall-off-the-bone tender ribs you might crave. The absolute star of the show, however, was the jalapeño and cheddar sausage. This homemade, double-grind sausage was perfectly seasoned and had a great blend of cheese and jalapeño mixed in. The casing had the perfect snap and was top-notch. The sides were equally impressive. The Maque-Choux (like a Cajun street corn) had a delightful char on the corn kernels and a perfect level of spice with a hint of red pepper. The pit beans were a classic, complementary side that made you feel like you were eating around a campfire, especially with the addition of some tender brisket mixed in. Not shown in the picture, the boudin cornbread was a delicious and unique surprise, filled with brisket, rice, and jalapeños. Overall, this is a spot I would highly recommend for anyone looking for an authentic and high-quality Texas barbecue experience.
Ok hear me people . I have never met the owners I am a real person I don't do reviews but I am doing this one. I did not know that a brisket could be perfect. The young fella inside side his brisket was the best . It with our a doubt is the best brisket. . I have been to Franklins . This is better . Got the sliced brisket that's all I had to say it does not come with anything on it cause it needs nothing. That's the way it's intended. It's about time we finally have the BBQ graceland that's usually some where else in Texas . Thank you 1107;u got me from here on our . If u have not been don't waste ur money any where else . I was skeptical at first seeing Texas
The brisket was perfection! The slices aren't falling apart because their too thin; just moist without too much extra smoke, spices overloaded and other junk. These people took the time to really know what makes a good dining experience! thanks!!!
I wish I had a reason to return to Beaumont, because this might be my new favorite of the top 50s I've been to. At 11:30 the line was short, considering it's such a great place. Brisket Boudin sausage 10/10. Ribs 10/10, Brisket 10/10, Brisket jalapeno cornbread better than 10/10. Even their pinto beans were better than most, 9/10. Owner was extra friendly as well. It's worth driving an hour out of your way.
“I pulled into 1701 hunting brisket, but what I found was a full-blown smoke show with a side of glory.” TL;DR: Rolled up at 10:45 AM and parked myself first in line at 1701 Barbecue. By the time the doors opened, there were 20 folks stacked up behind me, hungry and jealous. I walked out with brisket, ribs, sausage, banana pudding for the road, and a half chicken for dinner. The bark was crusted brilliance. The rib was hearty and full of flavor. The sausage had snap, juice, and no nonsense. The place was spotless, the staff was welcoming, and the smoke lingered in all the right places. That bird? Reheated like a champ. Stamp 23 secured. It was Saturday morning, and I had meat on my mind. The road took me to 1701 Barbecue, where the pitmasters don’t mess around and neither do the regulars. My internal alarm clock nudged me into action, and by 10:45 AM I was in the lot staring at the closed doors like a kid outside a candy store. A few clouds rolled by, the sun climbed a little higher, and before long a crowd had built up behind me like a tailgate line at kickoff. When the doors finally swung open, I had one mission: Texas Trinity + banana pudding + peace offering poultry. Here’s what hit the tray: • Brisket: Rich bark, tender middle, and seasoned with purpose. They don’t overdo it. They let the smoke speak. • Pork Rib: Thick, meaty, perfectly cooked. No tug-of-war, no chew-fest, just a clean bite and a flavor that hangs around. • Sausage: Juicy and bold with a casing that snapped clean like a green branch in deer season. • Banana Pudding: I tucked it in the to-go bag for the Side Dish Queen. She wasn’t with me this round, so it doubled as both a dessert and a peace treaty. • Half Chicken: I knew we’d need dinner. That bird got packed up and rode home like royalty. The joint itself was clean, cool, and buzzing with good energy. Staff had that Texas hospitality gear running smooth and friendly. Inside was all charm and calm efficiency. Plenty of napkins, plenty of smiles. When I got home that evening, I warmed up the half chicken, expecting some loss of luster. Nope. It was moist, smoky, and full of life. Even the Side Dish Queen nodded her approval. Stamp count: 23 down. 27 to go. 1701 brought the smoke, and I’ll be talking about that tray for a while. Dad Joke Sign-off: I asked the chicken how it stayed so good after the reheat. It just winked and said, “I don’t wing it.”
The restaurant is clean and welcoming. The staff is friendly and service is quick. We tried the brisket, sausage and ribs. They were all delicious! We travel the state going to the TM Top 50 and I'm surprised 1701 is not in the top ten!! Well, it's in my top ten for Texas bbq. Good job 1701 BBQ. I think it's worth the trip.
Great and happy staff, they were excited to share their love of bbq with newcomers. The food was delicious, the ribs were fall off the bone, but not too soft! The Mac and cheese was flavorful. Banana pudding is a must have too. Wonderful establishment with lots of fun signage. Clean bathrooms.
Came here for lunch and I can confidently say as of now this is my favorite bbq in the Beaumont port author area. The staff was nice and the food was good. They have a nice shop that smells great as soon as you walk in. My favorite part was the jalapeño sausage. Had great flavor and a good snap.
I've been wanting to try 1701's BBQ for almost 2 years since we made the move to East Texas. It made Texas Monthly's top 50 and I wanted to compare it to other Texas legends like Louie Mueller's, Black's, Kreuz Market, Smitty's, Truth, and others. My 8 year old and I finally had a chance to make it on a Saturday and I thought it would be packed! We got there around 11:30am and was mildly surprised that there were a few cars, but not a crowd!! There were only two people in front of us so it didn't take long to get to place our order! My 8 year old wanted Brisket, not just any, he told the server he wanted fatty brisket!!! (That's my boy! 😁) I ordered a sliced brisket sandwich, and he stacked on the brisket!!! I then told him I wanted to order BBQ to go also, but we were going to eat inside. So I ordered 1lb. of fatty brisket, 1lb. of Pulled pork, 1lb. of Smoked Turkey, and one Beef Dinosaur Rib! They also had a special going on, 1/2 of a smoked chicken for $6! Yeah, go ahead and throw that in there with the Turkey!!! Next we moved down the line a little to get our sides. I knew what the 8 year old wanted, he had been eyeing the Mac and Cheese ever since they had laid two big slices of brisket on his tray! They also gave him one of their strawberry shortcakes! I moved over and ordered their Jalapeno Potato Salad and a side of the Mac and Cheese myself!!! We ordered Sweet Tea for our drinks. Then we had a seat at one of the inside tables. The young lady working the register helped us move our food to the table! I must say everyone here was very welcoming once you entered the door and very friendly and helpful!!! Once you pay there is a place in the corner across from the register to get forks, knives, and spoons. There is a small table right across that has condiments and napkins you can get for your table. There is a bottle of 1701 BBQ Sauce already at your table also! The inside has a very nice ambience and there are some shelves to the right as you walk in that has T-shirts, Sauces, and other items for sale! There are big blackboards behind the serving counter that list what they are serving and I think I heard the price shows per half pound on the prices. To the left of it behind the young lady serving sides is another Blackboard that lists the sides and desserts on it! My 8 year old didn't waste any time tearing into his sliced brisket! He loved the Mac and Cheese! It had a wonderful flavor and was made from a combination of two cheeses! My sliced brisket sandwich was piled high with plenty of meat and it was so delicious!!! I've been dying to try their Jalapeno Potato Salad ever since I heard that they made theirs that way!!! It was really delicious with just a hint of Jalapenos in it! It wasn't overbearing even for someone that might be skittish about it being too hot! It wasn't hot at all just really flavorful! I want to say if your curious and haven't tried it yet, they can hold their own against any of the central Texas outfits!!! The brisket had a really nice smoke ring and flavorful bark on it, it was really good!!! The brisket was moist and cooked to perfection! It wasn't dry and it pulled apart like it should, not overly so. Before we left, business had started picking up a little after 12:30. And it is good enough they are usually sold out by 2:00Pm! You won't go wrong making this a stop for some really great BBQ. We will definitely be back.
Had this place on my list for quite some time…and they did not disappointed. I arrived at 1701 Barbecue just before 11am and wandered around to the smokers and chatted with some of the pit crew. There’s a lot to choose from here and the carver was great help…they had Beef Ribs “on sale” so I had to grab one of them, a jalapeño & cheddar link, and I was convinced to try one of their lean brisket sandwiches. I rarely order lean brisket, normally too dry and little flavor but was blown away by this great piece of smoked meat. The sandwich…delicious and I really love their BBQ sauce. The beef rib was solid and the crust was a perfect complement to the moist meat of the rib. I don’t see loose grind sausage very often, and this sausage was solid with some extra kick to it. I’ll be having a sausage and beef rib breakfast sandwich tomorrow. The service here is extremely friendly and I enjoyed talking to the Manager Travis, plus he gave me a new place to go scope out. It’s no wonder this place is a Texas Top 50!!!
Love! so happy to have a 5 star in Beaumont to report on 💕This place is the perfect BBQ spot, no pretentious interior just great food! and most importantly for this diner has BEEF RIBS!!! 😱👏🏻👏🏻thank you 1701!! the best coleslaw and perfect for the richness of the ribs. Potato salad was great and tasted homemade, and the sauce on the tables is takeaway worthy (for sale on site). a little pricey but so worth it. i feel lucky to have been introduced to 1701.
Took a little drive over to Beaumont today to check out one of the new top 50 Texas Monthly BBQ spots with my beautiful bride. 1701 Barbecue has some great smoked meats! Lean brisket that eats as tender and juicy as a slice of fatty with a crusty bark that had a seemingly balanced flavor profile, not too much salt, not too much pepper and pretty much melted in your mouth. Ribs were terrific. Bite clean from the bone without being mush with great texture and a slight, sweet barkish glaze that was almost a porky dessert. I should have got a rack to take home! Sausage! I got both the jalapeno cheddar and the beef. Snappy cased, course ground interior that was seasoned perfectly, I mean the perfect salt in this, and the perfect juicy greasiness! I wish you could buy stuff like that at the supermarket. Last but definitely not least was that Turkey! Probably the best Turkey I've had and that is saying something. My wife even said what I was thinking before I could articulate the same sentiment around a mouthful of succulent, well seasoned, perfectly smoked and tender white meat! The sides- Delicious collard greens. A little spicy kick! The brisket beans. Sweet, savory and perfectly cooked. The cilantro slaw! Wish I'd have thought of such a thing! This place is small and food is served cafeteria style culminating in collecting your tray at the cash register before finding a seat if any are available. Being first in line today we had our pick. The staff and the head Pitmaster we're all courteous and nice as could be. They even allowed us inside out of the cold, blustery, wind and rain a little early which was a relief. Overall, since it wasn't a horrible drive, I'll probably be back repeatedly to sample more goodness contained in this small brick building.
Hands down some of the best BBQ I've had in the golden triangle. From the brisket to the juicy smoked turkey you won't be disappointed. Their sides are also full of flavor. When you walk in the line may be out there door but you won't be waiting for long. 10/10 recommend 👌🏾
A solid bbq joint, it is plain to see why they’re on the TM Top 50 list. The brisket is great the ribs are delicious. Since they were out of chicken they talked us into the turkey which I would put up with the top 3 best turkey in the state of TX. They were out of some of their most popular sides and the chickens but were very happy with our experience. The people are great, very friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Very impressed, highly recommend, and will gladly return.
This BBQ is only fair! I visited there because it was listed in the Texas Monthly as great BBQ restaurant and number 1 in Beaumont. On February 3, 2026, I ordered 1/2 lb of brisket and a brisket baked potato and it tasted ok. The BBQ is pricey for the taste & the BBQ sauce is horrible (Baby Ray's is much better). I have had BBQ from the number 1 best most amazing bbq place in the country and that place is Franklin's BBQ in Austin, TX. When you have had Franklin's everything else is sub-par. When you don't want to drive to Austin & you want some amazing brisket I recommend the following in Baytown/Houston: Buc-ees (Baytown), Brisket House & Goode Company (Houston) & Killen's (Pearland & Cypress). I was hoping 1701 BBQ would have been amazing but it was very disappointing. Beaumont, TX just doesn't have great BBQ places or great restaurants! I hope a Buc-ees is built in Beaumont where you can get a great brisket sandwich for $9 & 1/2 lb of brisket for $13.
I've visited this restaurant twice & unfortunately it'll be my last. The very first time I visited 1701, the food was excellent, but EXPENSIVE. But typically, good BBQ joints normally are. My last visit was on August 15, 2025 with some family. On the way there, I was praising 1701 & telling them it's the best BBQ joint in the Golden Triangle. Ordered half rack of pork ribs, 1/2 pound of beef sausage, 1/2 pound fatty brisket, pint of potato salad, pint of beans, & 3 ice teas. Total cost for lunch was $102....Texas is well known to use only salt & pepper for seasoning and I love it. But the ribs were drenched with black pepper this time. It was horrible. The beef sausage? Horrible. Fatty beef brisket? Excellent. Potato salad? It was good, but nothing special. Beans? Dam Bush's baked beans wins by a mile. Save your money & don't get the beans... The family was not impressed at all & for $102 they did not see the value.
