ssweeney's Review of Bun N Barrel

Weighted Overall
7.575
  • Sides: PS - Good soft taters; nice. Beans - nice texture and good flavors (especially for first thing in the morning).
  • Atmosphere: Carlos has been here 51 years! Bonus points for 'real pit BBQ' inside the city limits. They use oak to smoke shoulder clod overnight. We got a great tour from Carlos... who also likes to explore 'true bbq' in his spare time. This drive-in bbq joint has great history - I like it!!!
  • Sausage: Nice (from Mertz) - medium packed with great flavors... I keep coming back to the sausage; its good!
  • Spare Rib: Somewhat tough & chewy, but flavorful. Not too greasy... good smoke flavor.
  • Beef: Beef clod. Great smoke! Nice texture; juicy with good layer of fat for extra flavor.
