Sam's BBQ

All smiles everytime i go here...
Great people here!! Brisket is always tender & Chicken never dry..If you happen to have time for a good chess game Mr Mays would be glad to challenge you.

I'm from San Antonio always looking for a good place to eat barbecue. I tell you one thing by the pictures I left that was the damn good barbecue. If you ever visit Austin stop by Sam's BBQ. Don't mess it!!! And the slogan is right..."you don't need no teeth to eat my beef"

I was doing some work in the area and was driving by this place every day so I decided to stop. From the minute I walk in I was treated kindly. I was greeted by what I would assume is one of the owners, probably the wife of the cook, who would be the other owner.

I'm a white man. And I don't normally go into a place with any thought or concern about what color I am, what color the owner is, I generally go into a place based on the fact that I want to eat some barbecue at my place I haven't eaten at before. But in the world we live in today and the volatility of relations between different races I feel like, well I want to say this because it had a substantial and significant impact on me. I was welcomed so openly, honestly, and with genuine kindness that it wasn't until I left there I realize just how comfortable and welcomed the people of this establishment made me feel. I am grateful. Thank you..

This is my Austin, Texas. I was born here, and this is what Austin, Texas is about....

And the brisket is as good or better than Coopers, Blacks, Franklin's, or whatever else place I can name.. Yes it's that good.. Cant say much on anything else they serve, I got a half a pound of brisket, 4 pieces of bread and some barbecue sauce.. and it far exceeded my expectations, it was absolutely perfect. If you are a BBQ lover, save yourself the drive, this place can stand side-by-side with any of those big name places.

Awesome place great service
