This place is by far one of the best barbecue places in Texas. We have gone back a few times already. I highly recommend the pork ribs they are out of this world, very tender and the Smokey flavor is so good. I also loved their Mac and cheese. The fries are also good. The onion rings are good but not my favorite and the mashed potatoes are delicious. My husband tried the chicken fried steak and it was huge he couldn’t finish it. The chicken tenders are huge but there was too much breading in them for my likening. Their barbecue sauce is delicious and I love that they have the drink station out so you can get your own refills. For 3 people we spent $50. Well worth the price. Plus my husband also got a beer.

Great local BBQ place with a great atmosphere. There is a large outside patio and a playground for the kids. They also have a big party room. The food was excellent and tasty. They have a big selection of beer and non-alcoholic drinks. The baked potato with brisket was delicious, the brisket was little burnt ends and was flavorful and crispy. The turkey and brisket was cooked to perfection. The sides: Mac & cheese, charro beans, green beans and potato salad, were an excellent compliment to the proteins. Dessert was the banana pudding, which is a must have! Excellent meal!

I really love the brisket, fixings, and sauce. The atmosphere is great too. From my meal again the brisket melted in my mouth and it was a good cut without tons of fat. My only feedback would be on the sausage to have a spicy version.

Got the brisket plate with two sides. Meat was down right delicious! The two sides were not right. Potato salad was bland and the fries were ok but a few had dark spots. Next time will only get the meat, this is a sure winner.

Best BBQ I've found in the San Antonio area. Texas sized portions at a great prize. Some reviews stated the restaurant was overpriced, but I actually found it to be much cheaper than many inferior places. I went with a 5 meat sampler (about 1/4lb each) that came with 2 sides all for under $22.
Food and atmosphere were great. Indoor and outdoor seating options, with a play set for kids. I will definitely be back next time in San Antonio.

Great atmosphere! Food was delicious and the staff were very kind and friendly. Starts out that you get in the queue and order then you go find an open picnic table. They call your number then you enjoy. Went with 2 vegetarian people as well and they enjoyed the food as well.
We got the meat plater, for the meat eaters. It came with ham, sausage, ribs, brisket, and pulled pork. We opted for the mashed potatoes and the Mac and cheese for our sides. It came with a few slices of white bread as well.
The vegetarians ordered Mac and cheese, baked potato, fried okra, fried mushrooms, and Cole slaw.
They also offer a pickle bar that has lots of different pickles and pickled vegetables to add to your orders at no extra charge.
Everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly. All the meat was seasoned well enough that they didn't need the BBQ sauce, but I still tried each one.
We all even rang the bell when we left to show just how much we enjoyed the food and the service.
I highly recommend this place for anyone even vegetarians. It's got a little something for everyone and we'll definitely be back!!

1st time visit, had the large plate of meats. Very delicious, our other table mates enjoyed Chicken fried steak and sausages. The sides were all on point. Cream corn was savory, mashed potatoes was yummy as well. Offered military discount which is always a plus. Thank you. Have to visit more often now that we enjoyed this delicious BBQ.

This place is a must go for any bbq lover. The food was terrific and seasoned properly. Not too salty and not bland. Way better than Rudy's. The evening I went there was almost an hour long wait but this was due to them being short staffed. The place was spacious and there is a sort of jungle gym in the back for the kiddos to play around. Their bathrooms were decent enough but the men's room needed to be looked after. I highly recommend everyone to try this place at least once. The prices are a little high but not Rudy's high. The food is definitely worth every penny you spend and more so. I ordered the house special and was barely able to finish. A LOT of food. Great portuon servings.

Love it, everything on the menu is delicious! The catfish has such a crispy batter that you can literally crack it and the steam streams out which makes the fish so flaky, tender and tasty it just melts in your mouth. The fried mushrooms are more like an entree than like an appetizer; they are so huge and delicious. Same thing goes for the chicken strips. The green beans have that cooked all day flavor you just have to try them for yourself. Oh yeah and then there's the barbecue which will definitely speak for itself!

Blanco BBQ looks like a generic Texas BBQ place, but it does serve up good meats. The brisket is properly moist and the white meats aren't dry. The sides are a gem because I'm hard pressed to think of any other BBQ establishment with such good ones. There is tons of seating but the line is constantly long all day. Kids will enjoy the outdoor play area. Get the three meat plate to really explore their offerings!
