Southside Market Barbeque - Elgin

Great! Lunch today at Southside. Had the two hit plate, with pork, belly and lamb rib. Both can be hard to find and both have been made perfect. Beans and Koleslaw for the sides, beans hardly made, but good, and Koleslaw was very good. Twisted with a shine Bock

Good, but not my favorite. There are many options on the menu and lots of goods to buy sauce and spices. I appreciate the variety of options. You also have a meat counter where you can buy cold sausage and other meat, which is beautiful. I'm probably coming back. Brisket was good and the Slammers were also delicious. Mac and cheese made homemade.

This restaurant is located directly on Highway 290 and has a drive-thru and great meat selection. The service was really friendly. We ordered her chicken and Cheddar Jalapeno sausage with potato salad and macaroni and cheese. The macaroni and cheese was my favorite and the chicken was delicious and perfectly cooked.

This is some of the best barbecue not only in the state of Texas but that you will ever taste. I do believe they're the oldest barbecue place in the state of Texas and they definitely have the art down. When you consider the grocery chains have picked up their sausage to sell in the grocery store once again that tells you the quality of their products. Anything you get off the menu here is going to be good. They're pinto beans are a favor to mine because I hate ranch style beans and these are not that type. Their potato salad is creamy and delicious. Brisket of course was smoked and cooked to perfection. Chicken was tender and juicy. And their sausage again is some of the best I've ever had in my life.

I've been looking for a good BBQ restaurant in Texas and was told Southside is one of the best. Being a cook and food connoisseur myself, I was looking forward to it. Plate: I ordered the 1 meat (brisket) w/ mac cheese and beans. My brother had the 3 meat plate w/ brisket, chicken, and sausage. Unfortunately, it didn't land where we expected. For the price, the portions were small, the meat was room temp and had no flavor, the BBQ sauce is kept separate in a pump and was cold and watered down. The mac was cooked well, but lacked flavor and the beans were ok. Dessert: Peach Cobbler was good, however there was no crust, so it was more like sweet warm peaches with vanilla ice cream. Condiments: There weren't any covers over the condiments and customer's weren't wearing mask. Enough said! Conclusion: Southside is like the fast food version of BBQ and I will not return. The hunt for real authentic Texas BBQ continues.
