I gotta admit, Texas barbecue is probably my favorite. I used to live in Houston, where Tex-Mex and barbecue can be found everywhere. So, if you miss a taste of home, head out to Big Nate's Family BBQ for some authentic 12-hour slow-roasted and smoked Texas-style barbecue. I met Eric Solheim and his brother-in-law, Ray Dandridge; everyone was so friendly and welcoming. My wife tried the 1/4 chicken plate with slaw and baked beans, and I had to try the Trinity plate: pulled pork, chicken, and brisket. I also had to try Nacho Mama's Mac and the loaded mashed potatoes. Everything was melt-in-your-mouth tender, and you could really taste the smoky flavors. They offer family packs and homemade desserts and cookies; if you are in the area, please support them.

Absolutely the best BBQ around. My son hired Big Nate's to cater their wedding and it was fabulous. Everyone in attendance love the food from the BRISKET to the PULLED PORK to the Mac & Cheese and coleslaw slaw, everything thing was top notch. I have been back several times even though it is a 35 min trip one way. You've got to go!

We stopped by randomly for lunch while out and about. There were 4 of us all getting different items. The guys at the counter were friendly and quick getting the orders together. Everything we had was excellent. Pulled pork was flavorful and tender, brisket and chicken both excellent. Sides were also on point, I hold a lot of my BBQ review for the sides. The only thing I wasn't overhappy about was the cornbread was a little stale but barely. Overall a very good meal and we were all very happy with it. Highly recommend.
