Fiasco BBQ

Matt Myers

Owner is super friendly. Great shaded location. Brisket is delicious and the sides too. Potato salad and cucumber nice and light to fit the heavy meat. In a while I can say I got there before everybody else!

Incredible meats, light and refreshing sides, need that mustard bbq sauce by the bottle. I never thought I’d eat bbq and not be in a food coma. In a city full of incredible fusion bbq, this spot is truly a classic done right and now located at the Dainty Dillo.

Hidden gem! Nestled into a residential street in East Austin, the Fiasco BBQ food truck is on a peaceful empty lot with shady tables under the trees. Eric prepares all the food from scratch - the brisket was mouth watering, and the bark was perfection. Excellent side salad too!

Awesome food truck nestled away in a backyard oasis on the east side of Austin. Eric is a master of his craft. I ordered the pork rips accompanied by his mustard sauce and house fiasco bbq sauce with a side of his potato salad. Everything was incredible I'll be here every week

Absolutely fantastic. Turkey is the most underrated piece of Texas BBQ in my opinion, and this no doubt some of the best BBQ turkey I've had. The pork ribs were great as well. But the burger is a sleeper hit. Already one of the best burgers in town. Forget smash burgers! Everyone should be eating thick burgers like this one. They were sold out of quite a bit (thanks to Austin Eater article no doubt), but I can't wait to go back and try more. Hopefully the beef ribs will be available next time!

Got the Horiatiki salad and 5 piece Alabama white sauce wings. Salad was delightfully fresh and crisp. Wings were smoky, I’ve never had a BBQ sauce like this one. Would recommend. Great atmosphere, feels more like a neighborhood food truck and less like a corporate BBQ joint. Excellent taste in music too. We’ll be back.

THIS IS THE BEST BURGER!!! A beautiful, perfect blend of brisket, chuck, and short rib!!! pecan smoked to perfection with a house rub that has coriander and cayenne!!

Had Fiasco BBQ for the first time today. It was amazing! Eric is friendly and his food is delicious. Particularly loved the ribs and sauce, the potato salad was inhaled. Will be going back next weekend!

Excellent new hidden gem in East Austin. The BBQ doesn’t disappoint and the sides are paired perfectly (no half-fast sides!) Highly recommend it!

Incredible bbq food truck nestled in a peaceful little green oasis in east Austin. Tried the brisket, turkey, wings and two sides (slaw and salad). While everything was delicious, the turkey is the best I’ve ever had, and the Brisket ranks up there with the best of the best. I had never tried Alabama white wings and will definitely be back for more. Sides are light, tasty, refreshing, and serve as the perfect compliment to the mains. This is my new go to bbq spot.

We stopped into the backyard of a wine bar and stumbled on Fiasco BBQ. We had some of the juiciest turkey we’ve ever eaten, and the brisket really did melt in the mouth. HIGHLY recommend!

Fiasco BBQ is the TRUTH! Eric is the nicest guy and knows his stuff. Austin food/bev legend. Location is tucked away but sometimes that’s where you find the best kept secrets!

Absolutely delicious BBQ. I tend to eat healthy so I get the turkey a lot and MAN is it juicy. It’s served with a delicious mustard sauce. The potato salad is made with Greek yogurt, not mayonnaise, so it feels like a perfect light side but has so much flavor. I had a bite of my friend’s ribs and brisket, so so good. Definitely check it out.

Fantastic BBQ! Turkey and Brisket both top notch. Sides are fantastic and untraditional. Eric has Michelin starred restaurant experience so you can see its influence in everything. Definitely a must visit.

Ordered the brisket and jalapeno cheddar sausage. Both smoked to perfection. Brisket was super tender and delicious with it without the house made sauce. Really liked the potato salad (made with yogurt!) and the cucumber, feta, and olive salad!

The wings here are amazing! All the BBQ is made with love and tastes fantastic! Perfectly cooked! So flavorful and perfectly moist. Eric is passionate about his craft and it shows in his product. The horiatiki salad is made fresh and is an amazing side to the BBQ! This is a must try food truck in east Austin! Definitely worth your time!

This is a great spot to grab some quality BBQ that won’t sit quite as heavy in your stomach as some other spots. Typically, I avoid having BBQ for lunch because it just makes me want to nap the whole afternoon, but that’s not the case with Fiasco! Substantial enough to scratch that BBQ itch without going overboard. Highlights include the smoked turkey and the Alabama white sauce wings. I love that the sides are light, bright, and refreshing, which pairs perfectly with the smokiness of the meat.

Took the family to try Fiasco after reading Eric's story. Great food, good taste, and smoke flavor. The turkey was moist. Rub has a little bite to it. Sauces were a great compliment to the meats and also had some spice. Brisket and ribs were spot in. He was sold out of the wings. Eric came out and shared some tips and parts of his background. We'll get there early next time for the wings. Thanks for the great meal Eric.

Delicious BBQ. Great mustardy turkey sandwich. Pork ribs that were tender but still toothsome in a good way and the taste reminded me of char-siu pork. Brisket very flavorful and tender but didn’t fall apart until you take a bite. Appreciate all the fresh herbs in the potato salad and the spice-laden pickles. Great addition to the neighborhood!

You should try the smoked burger, it's amazing but you have to get it before they sell out. The sides are also fantastic and fresh. Be careful in the food park there is lots of poison ivy around the fences. There are a few places with restrooms within walking distance, the portajohns onsite are a mosquito nightmare.
