Hinze's Bar-B-Que

"Hinze's Bar-B-Que is a pretty small local BBQ joint. The food is decent and it's affordable. It's not the best BBQ I've had (having traveled all over Texas and most of the southern United States) but it's certainly not bad at all. I had the brisket, sausage, green beans, and Mac n' cheese. I think that's a pretty decent spread to be able to judge based on. It was all decently good, I'll come back during my stay and try out the chicken and pork! My critiques are as follows: The meat didn't come out as hot as I'd have liked. Like any BBQ place, everything is prepped beforehand, it just wasn't heated up much. The sausage was a bit lean, and it lacked that juiciness you might be accustomed to with smoked sausage. Their BBQ sauce stood out to me, I did enjoy its flavor. It's just a shame I felt the need to use it on the brisket."

"Food was great and very flavorful. The price was great and the workers were friendly. The prices were reasonable especially for the amount of food you got. We got a slice of pecan pie… very delicious. Highly recommend."

"If you're looking for authentic Texas barbecue, Hinze's Bar-B-Que in Wharton is the place to go. Established in 1973, this restaurant has been serving up some of the finest barbecue in the state for almost half a century. As a Texan, I take my barbecue seriously, and I can say without hesitation that Hinze's is a true Texas staple. I never fully appreciated it until I was away from Texas and had to settle for subpar barbecue. But coming back here, I feel proud to call myself a Texan. Hinze's menu is packed with down-home BBQ and southern dishes that will leave you feeling satisfied and content. From country-fried steaks to homemade pies, they serve up all the classic dishes you would expect from a Texas barbecue joint. But what really sets Hinze's apart is the quality of their barbecue. The meat is slow-cooked to perfection, and the flavors are rich and smoky. Whether you're in the mood for brisket, ribs, or sausage, they've got you covered. Unfortunately, Hinze's suffered a fire that destroyed their original location. But they have bounced back and are now serving customers at their new location. And let me tell you, the food is just as good as ever. If you're in the area and looking for some top-notch barbecue, do yourself a favor and check out Hinze's Bar-B-Que. You won't be disappointed."

"So different from the old location. It's pretty worn-looking from the outside. The inside is ... unpretentious. I gave the rating only for the stuffed baked potato with turkey as I didn't eat anything else. It was served with bbq sauce on the side and it was delicious! I was able to get two meals from it."
