Editorial Review for Luling City Market Real Texas Bar-B-Que – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
Can't make it to the original? Houston's Luling City Market will serve up your barbecue, including a coarsely ground-beef sausage that still energizes a considerable fan club. Most offerings can be ordered by the pound--the ribs and brisket here are a must and the turkey holds its own. The meat is served up on a piece of butcher paper accompanied by plenty of white bread. An authoritative dipping sauce keeps the faith.

This is in an unlikeley location for a really good bbq joint (near the gallereria inside the loop). Being a student of both bbq joints and making bbq of all kinds, this placed surprised me. The ribs are very meaty and must be slow smoked for days to come out so good with fat rendered out of them. The sausage, chicken and turkey are all quite tasty too. If you rate your bbq on brisket, I only give these guys a B+ though. Don't take my word for it, let the people speak....case in point if you do not get there before 11AM for lunch, the line is out the door. Sauce (usually not noteworthy in most places) is unique and tasty. The chains like Pappas or Goode can't touch this!
Pros: Real Texas BBQ
Cons: Limited seating

Eaten there a couple of times. Not noteworthy. Living off the great reputation of the real BBQ joints near the real Lulling and west. Pass on this one. Go to William's Smoke House or to the Swinging door, or better yet, take a short trip west and get some real BBQ rather than this substandard want-to-be stuff.
Pros: A poor imitation want to be.... No pro here unless you maybe count distance to real Q.
Cons: Poor imitation want to be. Pass
