Outstanding BBQ 5 Star Rating - World class

We had them cater the meats for our office BBQ. The price was more than reasonable and the meats were so moist and flavorful. I was worried the brisket would be dry but it was fantastic. along with pulled pork and smoked chicken. Everyone Loved the meats. We will definately go there again for parties and meals. I am very picky about BBQ Sauce but I loved it too! Great Service and Great Food!

Pros: Flavor and Service
Cons: sides

Texas BBQ'd Fat 1 Star Rating - Unsatisfactory

Like many others who live in SW Portland, I was happy to see Texas BBQ set up a more permanent home. Today was the first time that I had the opportunity to stop in. I ordered a regular size beef brisket sandwich. What I got looked good, but for $10.00, I think it should have come with a side. Inside the Styrofoam box sat a Costco roll (the kind they serve their hot dogs on. Nothing wrong with the roll. I mention it so readers can judge the size) well piled with thick chunks of delicately burned brisket covered in just enough sauce. It smelled great. Then I bit in. The first bite was 90% fat and so were many of the remaining bites. I couldn't swallow that bite and didn't want to. I removed it from my mouth to salvage what little real meat remained. When I was done, I looked at the disgusting pile of suet and realized that about 1/3rd of the brisket that was on my sandwich was inedible. The few pieces that came from the bottom, single cut were tasty, smoky and similar in spirit to Texas BBQ that I've had in Texas. Texas BBQ, please teach your help how to trim the fat.

Pros: The wood smoke aroma is a big draw
Cons: Either skip the brisket or ask them to make the sandwich lean.

Mediocre at best... 1 Star Rating - Unsatisfactory

I am guessing that the people who reviewed this place are either very close friends of the owners or have never eaten decent BBQ, but this place is not very good at all. The side dishes are pre-made bulk food right off the back of a Cisco truck. The so-called "Texas beans" were just canned chili beans. The greens I got were utterly unflavored - they were just over boiled greens with two hunks of meat in them, and no salt, no vinegar, nothing. My friend's potato salad was obviously from a box. The pork ribs I got were OK, with decent flavor and good smoking, but the sauce they were in was a corn syrup based sauce that was obviously not homemade. My dining partner's chicken was "dry dry dry" according to him. The bread my order was supposed to some with was missing. Decent BBQ and sides are not hard to make from scratch, I have absolutely no idea why anyone would slop this stuff out and hope to make customers happy.

Pros: OK meat
Cons: The sides, missing items in the order

Best BBQ in the Portland Area. Try it!!!! 5 Star Rating - World class

We're so excited that "Delicious Texas Pit BBQ & Catering" now has a permanent home on Beaverton-Hillsdale HIghway. The barbequed brisket and tri-tip sandwiches are incredibly delicious, tender, moist and the servings are LARGE. And, Charles is SUCH a nice guy. His barbeque is honestly the best that we've found in the Portland area. Try it and see!!!!

Pros: The best BBQ around.
Cons: It's probably fattening because the servings are huge. But, it's worth it.
