Easy on and off I-35. Good quality meat and portions. My husband and I split a combo. It was plenty. Their potato salad was very good.

I think that Best Quality Meat and Bbq has the best barbecue in town! Beans and potato salad so good with the onions and pickles with some very well seasoned brisket.

Fantastic barbecue the sausage and brisket were awesome. Beans were also great. Prices are pretty darn good in this economy and couldn’t recommend it more. Stop in and throw a lip over that barbecue. You’ll be happy you did.

Insanely quick service, cordial staff and lovely meat. The turkey was so juicy, the green beans were seasoned throughly and still had stock (not dry) and the Mac n cheese was addicting. Everything tasted fresh, natural, and beautiful. As for the meals, they even give you some bread on the side and extra pickles and onions per request. Lots of uncultured people on here in the Google reviews claiming they “don’t season enough” … well, they literally leave out big bottles of seasonings on the tables for you if it’s not enough. However, good chefs understand good cooking is about simplicity, when you have too many different seasonings you distract the natural flavor of the food. The prices were great too, $33 for two big plates of meat and sides as well as a drink. As far as inflation and considering the meats are of genuine quality I believe this is beyond reasonable. Would most certainly recommend this place to anyone stopping by Temple.

The food, service, and atmosphere here is great! It’s not the best bbq I’ve ever had but it’s definitely better than Schoepf’s bbq. I tried the plate combo with sliced brisket and sausage. I chose the Mac n cheese and potato salad as my two sides. I definitely finished my plate and would return here again to do the same! Come support this local business!

My favorite bbq spot in Temple, the service is quick and they have fresh meats cooked every day. The staff is very friendly, I recommend their ribs and turkey combo, their banana pudding for dessert is amazing.
