Review The Brisket House - Houston

Tammy
Casual atmosphere with upscale quality food! This is easily the absolute BEST brisket I have ever had! Everything we ate was absolutely fantastic! Their BBQ sauce is the best we have ever had. We are well traveled and have had BBQ in at least 44 States. This is hands-down the best. They do something magical here. I will be back as much as possible for someone who is from Tulsa.

This was my first time here at the brisket house and I must admit I was very impressed. The meat was very tender. The banana pudding was bomb. I’ve never had banana pudding at a restaurant that actually had bananas and cookies and everybody that you ate so kudos to the brisket house on the banana pudding like I said The whole meal was delicious and I do recommend if you’re in the area stop by I would’ve showed you a picture of the banana pudding, but I ate it all so fast I forgot to take a picture

Quaint dining area with a country feel. We came at an off-lunch time (2 pm on Saturday) and it wasn't too hectic, although the staff was preparing quite a few delivery orders - a good sign. This was our first time here and we came after seeing the reviews. The staff greeted us immediately and everyone was friendly and helpful in explaining the menu options. We ordered the TBH platter and it took up two trays. We were surprised about the generous amount of meat we received. We got the cilantro charro beans, Mac and cheese, and baked potato salad - all excellent. The cornbread was also very tasty. We got the ribs, brisket, and sausage. Brisket and ribs were just as tender as you would hope and came apart easily with plastic silverware. The seasoning was excellent and all meat paired well with the BBQ sauce, although everything was also delicious by itself. It lived up to the hype for us and my husband (who is pretty picky) said "10/10 stars". Highly recommend.

Ordered 2 meat plate (brisket and ribs), corn bread, slab of cheddar cheese, banana pudding and Mexican bottled coca-cola. All the items are good. Took time to eat them all.

First time in this spot after being recommended to me. Didn’t disappoint. Went for a late lunch but the service was prompt and the meats and sides were fantastic. Got the TBH platter and will say can easily be split between two people. Brisket had good bark and was most. Don’t need a fork to cut it. Ribs were perfect but the Spicy Sausage was phenomenal. I got Cream Corn, Slaw and Mac and Cheese which were all good. And the piece of Cornbread that comes along with it was delicious. Will be back.

Excellent food. We recommend the baked potato with brisket. Prices are ok. Wonderful service, clean place.

Roast potato salad and brisket had very good flavour, the meat was soft and tender. Order meat by the half pound ad various sandwich / combo meals available.

Man am I glad we found this place. Let's get to the point, you want this brisket. Could cut it with a fork!! The ribs were fall-off-the-bone. The pulled pork was phenomenal. All the BBQ was moist, juicy, and had the smoke in the flavor. Everything was hot. The sides were huge and delicious. Real Texans in there making real damn good BBQ. Good pricing for the amounts too, which needs to be noted. Wear clothes you plan to change, cause the smoke is real. You will come out smelling like you smoked it out back yourself.

Nice little place for traditional Texas Q, a bit sanitized for the neighborhood but service is friendly and food is good. Nothing "wow," but good. The brisket was extra-lean. The pinto beans were extremely mild. The mac and cheese was nice. The turkey was good. Bread, pickles and onions were provided as you'd expect.
Stephanie Clark
We enjoyed our food so much that we wanted more! The flavors were so wonderful that I can’t remember having something so good!! We had ribs, chicken, and brisket….so good! For sides we had baked beans, potato salad, Mac & cheese, and green beans! Soooo good!! Dessert we had banana pudding and pecan pie! Absolutely delicious!!

So this place was amazing. Much better than the other BBQ place I went to 3 weeks ago when I was in Houston last time. The bang for your buck was better too. Big portions. We got the 300$ for 20 people.

Potato salad, Mac n cheese, chicken, and brisket were phenomenal. With the brisket being the absolute best out of everything we tried. The baby back ribs had a lot of pepper on it and that simply was not my style, but they did fall off the bone and were tender. They do need bug control as they had so many little gnats flying around it seemed like.
Ashley Gonzalez
Really great brisket, all foods made very traditionally. Love it!

Yes, they are smoking meat on-site, and they don't cover their smoked meat in sauce. Good signs. for a smokehouse. If they're not smoking on-site, keep driving. So this place smokes brisket, pork ribs, chicken, turkey, and pork shoulder. I tasted out most of it, and I would say they are in the top tier for their brisket. Their ribs were also very good. The turkey was tender and juicy, which is hard to do, but the pork shoulder (pulled pork) that I had was on the drier side for my taste. I had to use their sauce for the pulled pork. I also had the pinto bean side, which was also very good. I would definitely return for the brisket and ribs. The brisket was "beast"!

We evacuated to Houston from Louisiana for Hurricane Ida. The wife and I were hankering for some good BBQ. We ran the G search and liked the reviews. The wife ordered the two meat plate with Beans and mashed potatoes. I got the the three meat plate with coleslaw and potato salad. First - the Ribs were awesome. Not quite fall off the bone but man they were good. The brisket was delicious and very well done. The pull pork made want more. Their sauce is small portions on the side. Don’t hesitate to ask for more if you need it, I didn’t need more. The beans were very spicy but good. The potato salad was tasty. The coleslaw was dry but not bad. The corn bread was sweet and a small portion. The overall experience was enjoyable and I would not have a problem coming back. We had happy plates. To the reviewer that didn’t like the Smokey smell, It’s a smoke house, what did you expect. McDonalds?

Great bbq. Absolutely amazing!

Pleasantly surprised at how good this was. The ribs were nice and tender. Cornbread not my favorite. Get a good amount of food for $25. I got the TBH platter. *Update went there again for lunch this time. Food was even better than the first time. The ribs and baked beans are soo good. I even enjoyed the cornbread this time, the trick is to heat it up. 10/10 recommend :)

I've been going to the brisket house in Deer Park since the day they open the doors. I have always order the same thing which is a baked potato with the extra meat. Although the food is always good and consistent the price is never the same. Today when I argue with them when they would charge me $15 when it is never been more than $12. He threatened to call the cops. He said I was being rude I was only explaining to him what my history was with their restaurant and I thought it ought to be consistent with their pricing. Nothing is posted on their menu other than the basic price. When you ask for something extra which is what I did for extra meat they charge me an extra $5 which he said was the price for a third of a pound of meat. First of all how did he know it was a third of a pound when he just chopped it up and throw it on the potato and does not weigh it. If you ask for extra condiments it's $0.50 for each one. I'm glad I didn't order extra toppings or it would have cost me $20. I would recommend their food but I would not recommend they're rude and expressionless staff. Maybe I should have called the cops on them for price gouging.

Visiting Houston and craved BBQ, after reading the reviews we knew we had to come. Have to say we WE NOT disappointed!! This is the best BBQ ever! Pork ribs... falling off the bone. Brisket wouldn’t stay in my fork because it was so tender. Not to mention the 3 meat salad! I will now have to come back every time I come back to Houston!
David Sollers
This place is amazing! We always take people there when they come to visit. The food is great and you smell like smoked meat for a while after you leave. We are a half hour away and it's worth the drive.

If you miss Aggieland and Tom's BBQ, this place will bring you home- if only for a little while. Ruffino sausages and the best brisket I've ever had! Tastes like home!
Pepe Salcedo

Lyndsey Hoover

Steve Kair
Had a moist awesome brisket sandwich with a perfect sweet tea!!
Pamela Poole
I love Brisket House. I get the brisket sandwich with the baked potato salad and also get the baked beans. I love baked beans so I like how they offer them not just pinto beans.
Michelle Volosin Rollins
Love this place! Ribs and brisket were amazing. Wish I didn't live so many states away- but will definitely go back.
Jonah Holly

The brisket was ok. The ribs was old as me and I'm 58 years old. The staff was nice. I was highly offended.
