Southside Market Barbeque

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.

I've been past this place for five years and never stopped for one or other reason. Finally it did in today, and I am so disappointed by me that not stop earlier!! We ordered the Southside Combo Sandwich and Plate. I had the sandwich with brisket and sausage and OMG? the meats were both juicy and with taste! Everything was great by the way the sandwich beer was roasted and dressed or roasted with the juices from the meat. I traveled to the Elgin area about once a month and I guarantee that I will be back to try more and leave a further review on pages such as potato salad, Mac and cheese, etc. Don't miss this place!!

A friend told me how great he thought this place was. I drive to Austin from Houston numerous times a year but rarely stop to eat. My last trip I scheduled my trip just to finally stop for Lunch. It was damned good chopped beef on a bun and tasty sauce (I mix the hot and classic for a nice combo). No fat, chopped fine, flavorful. The sausage slammer, however, is something I won't order again. Greasy, gross cheese, not at all a good combination or texture. I'm sure my opinion is in the minority, but as long as they have great bbq... next I hope to try the baked potato.

Fantastic barbecue experience! The sausage was just simmering in its own juice, all the more tender and delectable. The brisket? Moist and flavorful, with a to die for smoke ring. The potato salad is some of the best I've had at any barbecue place, hands down. The macaroni was also tasty but not a personal fave I'll probably try something else on the sides menu next time. Next time? Oh there will SO be a next time!

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.
