Hinze's Bar-B-Que is a pretty small local BBQ joint. The food is decent and it's affordable. It's not the best BBQ I've had (having traveled all over Texas and most of the southern United States) but it's certainly not bad at all. I had the brisket, sausage, green beans, and Mac n' cheese. I think that's a pretty decent spread to be able to judge based on. It was all decently good, I'll come back during my stay and try out the chicken and pork!
My critiques are as follows: The meat didn't come out as hot as I'd have liked. Like any BBQ place, everything is prepped beforehand, it just wasn't heated up much. The sausage was a bit lean, and it lacked that juiciness you might be accustomed to with smoked sausage.
Their BBQ sauce stood out to me, I did enjoy its flavor. It's just a shame I felt the need to use it on the brisket.

Great BBQ, even better selection of sides! Butter beans, cucumber salad, carrot salad, etc. - all truly awesome! Down home atmosphere. Go there!

Very small town atmosphere. Great food. We ordered 2 pounds of ribs and a coconut pie to go. Strongly recommend the ribs and BBQ sauce.

This place!!! I live in Lubbock and thinking about driving back to Wharton, TX just for the BBQ and chocolate pie. Man it was so good. If you are in Wharton Tx, this place is a MUST!!!

Food was great and very flavorful. The price was great and the workers were friendly. The prices were reasonable especially for the amount of food you got. We got a slice of pecan pie… very delicious. Highly recommend.

Stopped through on the way to el campo for a camping trip. Best ribs I have had in a very long time. They have been open since 1970. Worth the stop if you are passing through.

I stopped on a road trip because my great grandmother was a fan and frequent customer in the 70's and 80's. I was not at all disappointed, the sliced beef sandwich made it worth the drove from Huntsville to Wharton.

Got a 3 meat plate for my self
Brisket portions were a bit on the meager side I would say it was maybe a 1/16th lb of brisket. Got brisket 2 ribs and some sausage.
Sides were Mac and cheese it was good and cheesy
Pinto beans then were delicious
Corn was fresh and delicious
BBQ sauce was bit more on the pastey tomatoe side. Not my cup of tea but not bad.
Service was quick staff was nice. Over all its good.

If you're looking for authentic Texas barbecue, Hinze's Bar-B-Que in Wharton is the place to go. Established in 1973, this restaurant has been serving up some of the finest barbecue in the state for almost half a century.
As a Texan, I take my barbecue seriously, and I can say without hesitation that Hinze's is a true Texas staple. I never fully appreciated it until I was away from Texas and had to settle for subpar barbecue. But coming back here, I feel proud to call myself a Texan.
Hinze's menu is packed with down-home BBQ and southern dishes that will leave you feeling satisfied and content. From country-fried steaks to homemade pies, they serve up all the classic dishes you would expect from a Texas barbecue joint.
But what really sets Hinze's apart is the quality of their barbecue. The meat is slow-cooked to perfection, and the flavors are rich and smoky. Whether you're in the mood for brisket, ribs, or sausage, they've got you covered.
Unfortunately, Hinze's suffered a fire that destroyed their original location. But they have bounced back and are now serving customers at their new location. And let me tell you, the food is just as good as ever.
If you're in the area and looking for some top-notch barbecue, do yourself a favor and check out Hinze's Bar-B-Que. You won't be disappointed.

Very popular with the locals at lunchtime, always a good sign. I got the sliced beef sandwich, fries, and a drink…everything ala carte…total about $14. I used to think that was pricey but that’s the world we live in these days. It was delicious and portions were ample. I thought maybe the fries were a bit small at first but the sandwich is big enough that the fries were right. The staff was friendly and the crowd filled the place, although I had no trouble finding a table for one. It’s very small town-y, in a good way. Unpretentious. I was just passing through but if I lived nearby it would be a favorite place.
