That would be like going to a burger place for the french fries.



The fries are equally important.

I had the opportunity to try 407 several weeks ago and was very impressed with the brisket. I'm not a foodie but it was some of the best brisket I've had.



Personally I like the way you think banana

IMO, Dickey's is the best. Especially their beans. A close second would be Red, Hot and Blue.

You'll be correct on that one.

I had a smoked sausage sandwich from the Bucee's in Madisonville a couple of Christmases ago and it was actually pretty OK. Of course I was famished at the time so anything would have tasted good.

I wasn't sure what the intended point of the thread was, so I just simply commented on already mentioned restaurants instead of adding my own. But +1 for 407, that's my #1 so far. It's about 45 minutes away from me, and I drive past countless other BBQ joints to get to it, but I'll still pick 407 anytime I want BBQ.

Man so many good BBQ joints in North Texas Now. Some great ones have already been mentioned, but my favorites that haven't haven't been mentioned are Dayne's in Fort Worth and Zavala's in Grand Prairie.

I have a small YouTube channel where I "review" bbq joints and I have a pretty big DFW playlist including a lot mentioned here. Bowers Barbecue

I haven't been there in years, but it used to be really good. I keep saying i need to go back and try it again, but haven't yet.


Goldees just opened in February of 2020, might be thinking of another joint. It's for sure a fantastic bbq joint. The owners are all in their early 20's, but know their stuff. Many have worked in joints like Franklin, Valentina's and Terry Blacks before starting their own place.

I made it to Goldees on Saturday. Got there about 11:45. Line was about 30-45 minutes. They were giving free beer to those waiting in line. Everyone there is super friendly. You can see the pits and them working while you're in line. They are happy to let you come in the pit area and show you the process and all the meat that is currently on the pit.

BBQ. Got brisket, ribs, turkey, sausage. It was fantastic. Super tender brisket and ribs with great flavor. I didn't try the turkey. Wife said it was awesome. They have 3 sausages. regular, jalapeno and cheese and spicy. I ordered the regular and jalapeno. The meat slicer guy have me a link of spicy at no extra charge to try out. All 3 were some of if not the best sausage I've had.

Sides. Cheese grits, slaw, potato salad. Grits were great, potato salad was really good. Slaw was just ok.

They bake their own bread and it's damn good.

They also have beef ribs on Saturday's.

I give it an A+ and will be back.

Real nice, see grits is something you don't really ever see as a side option at a bbq place.

Good to know, thanks for letting me know. There used to be an old BBQ joint out that way that I've had before. I'll have to check into it to see if it's a different location or if Goldees is in the building of the old one. Either way, now that I know it's relatively new, there's even more reason to go check it out.

Dayne's is my #1, and I've been to most of bbq places in DFW, getting harder to get in there before he's sold out.

Try RL Harris on 35 in Red Oak sometime.

I had a sliced brisket sandwich from there yesterday that was holy smoky.

I will give you three out of four Bob lol. Hickory Stick, Off The Bone, and Cousins are all excellent.

I personally think Railhead is overrated, every time I have had the brisket it has been dry and tough. The Railhead in Willow Park IMO is actually better than the one on Montgomery St, but someone needs to teach them how to cut brisket against the grain. We eat it all the time because my TCU grad wife loves it.

Hurtado's in Arlington, 407 in Argyle, and to be honest the Spring Creek BBQ on Cooper St in Arlington (I have been eating there almost weekly for almost 13 years and have never had a bad meal there) are my top three North Texas BBQ Joints. I have not tried Goldee's yet but it is supposed to be Da Bomb.
