Real TX bbq y'all. Meat is not drowned in sauce, simply smoked with a flavorful rub and the true nuance of the meat shows thru.

We ordered:
Brisket (wet)
Tri-tip
Ribs
Mac n chz
Beans
Potato salad
Brisket is the best I've had in in Vegas. Moist tender and seasoned perfectly - very light, allowing the brisket flavor to shine. No sauce needed.
Tri tip was good, a little more firm/dry in texture than the brisket but the flavor was spot on. Used a little of the sweet bbq sauce on this one.
Ribs. Omg the ribs. They totally brought me back to tx and my favorite little hole in the wall spot. Fall off the bone tender with just the right amount of crispy outside crust. Meat was juicy and the seasoning was on point. Absolutely no sauce needed.
Mac n chz was eh. Blah. For sure not a favorite and won't order again. It had a weird watery appearance (like it was being stretched with water or milk) and had no flavor. I didn't like the Mac but there are lots out there that do
Beans were great. It had a sweet and sour thing happening that I loved. They reminded me of charro beans. Down side is my bowl had nothing but beans in it, no bark no meat no peppers and I see some pics here that do. Oh well. It was still yum.
Potato salad was good. Better than others out there. Not too mustardy or too salty.
Lunch for me and hubs (no sodas just water) came to $38 - a little high but we did have some leftovers to take home. Take note - there are plenty of upcharges here, be aware when placing your order.
The only down side is they don't serve real TX sweet tea. Tx BBQ and sweet tea go hand in hand.
Will definitely return when the craving for ribs and brisket comes up
