Went there on Friday & the wait was about 45 min to an hour if you get there at around 11:30. Overall the food was exceptional. I got the brisket, which they offer 3 types (lean, moist & chopped), the moist was unbelievably good. It was simply melt in your mouth, juicy & moist. Delicious. They also offer three different types of sausages, which were great. Very happy I got to try it & can believe why they are rated right there at the top of BBQ places.
Cattlacks BBQ in my opinion : they are on top of the BBQ mountain!! Every bite was good and flavor was awesome. Good job!
Some of the best BBQ I've ever had! Only open 4 days a week and every 1st Sat. Line was long, but it was definitely worth the wait. We ordered burnt ends, 3 types of sausage, pork ribs, street corn, mac and cheese, beans, and 2 crack cakes. The atmosphere was casual and very welcoming! I'm looking forward to trying their waygu bologna
BBQ is very subjective but my two cents😅 We got the Texas Trinity plate which includes 1/3 lb of brisket, sausage and a pork rib. The brisket was very flavorful and moist, the rib was good, a bit on the drier side for me and the sausage was ok . Of the sides we got, burnt end beans, Street corn and wagyu chili, the beans were the best. Street corn had too much cumin(?) and the chili was a bit greasy. I would definitely like to see other items on the menu like fried okra and/or French fries. Oh and the sliced bread was really good as well.
It's one of the best BBQ that I have ever had. The brisket is so good that it doesn't need sauce on it. The sausage is very juicy. And the skins have a great pop to it. When you bit into it. The beans have burnt ends mixed in it. That makes it so much better than other places beans. This is the real deal Texas BBQ. You can't go wrong getting anything there. It's a definite go out and get!!!
Took the Texas trinity. Sausage link was okay. I recommend you just get the brisket by the pound. Pork Ribs are also good but briskets are much better.
I heard the crack cake is fantastic so try that too. Texas Trinity is $23.99 at the moment so prices are pretty reasonable.
So, heard about this place from B4 bbq and had to try it out! I got the cattleack platter (roughly 110$ prices may vary) which came with every meat besides the specials which at the time I went was pastrami brisket and jerk chicken. Misty came out to greet everyone and tell everyone about the specials and greet the new comers! She explained that the jerk chicken had been something they'd been perfecting for a long time and it was fantastic.
Beef ribs: I'm writing this review a day after eating here to process my experience and I keep remembering the taste of this rib in my mouth. Perfect bark, tore like butter and almost fluffy when bitting into it. Amazing beef rib. My favorite Beef rib so far!
Platter came with a lean piece and moist piece of brisket. The moist piece was very flavorful and just the right amount of fat. And the lean was cooked perfectly.
Chopped pork: I was so glad to see a straight pork option, and it did not disappoint!
Turkey: super moist turkey! Great peppery flavor! Top tier turkey!
Sides: we got potato salad, dirty rice, and brisket beans and mac and cheese.
Brisket beans were pretty good. Sides weren't my favorite part of the whole experience but still good enough sides to compliment the excellent cooked meat.
Last but certainly not least. The crack cake! This thing is a must-have! I would come back and wait in line just to get another slice! Do not miss out!
Just wanna thank B4 BBQ for recommending this place and Cattleack for creating such amazing BBQ.
Took a (4mile) walk last Thursday over to try some BBQ, and it was worth it! Went for the Texas Trinity plate along with a side of the hatch mac and cheese (and some crack cake for dessert!) The brisket was excellent, and the pork rib was almost as good. The mac and cheese was very good, and the crack cake was delicious.
I also bought some extra brisket to take home, along with some Bologna and some of the burnt end beans. The Bologna was great (and also made for a fabulous sandwich the next morning!), but the brisket somehow managed to taste even better as leftovers the next day!
We were the first ones in line today and SO worth it! We enjoyed the pastrami brisket and burnt ends! The hatch chilie Mac and cheese is so far my FAVORITE side! The Cole slaw was alright. Light vinegar base and was a decent palate cleanser between the flavors. The brisket was very VERY moist. We also had the hot link (hottest one offered for today) and to be honest it wasn't spicy, but still pretty damn good! Pork belly was a quick impulse buy AND A DAMN GOOD CHOICE. The banana pudding was very fluffy and so delicious. I definitely recommend getting there around 1030 am ish- by the time you get your food will be around 11.
Food was great don't get me wrong. I've been to several of the top spots in dfw and this ranks up with them. My only complaint is that everything isn't kept at the temp it should be kept at. Ribs brisket and sausage were super flavorful and so were the sides. Some of the items however were almost room temp when I took my first bite (and I was like 10th in line at 10am). Should've been hot and ready, no reason brisket and sides should be held just above luke warm.
But all in all, it was very good. I'd say #3 or #4 of the big league spots in DFW.
This is a truly excellent Dallas BBQ. Having gone through the Texas Trinity on a personal basis, what I can say is there is salvation in meat!
I also recommend some hatch chili mac & cheese, and if they have the burnt-end beans don’t pass .
Come early and be prepared for a wait. Took an hour from standing in line to sitting and eating, but well worth it. The menu sells out, so try to get there closer to opening if you want the full selection. The beef ribs were the highlight - also most expensive but for good reason. The sides are excellent, definitely give them a shot as well even if you get the smallest size. Friendly people, great atmosphere, and overall cool experience!
