5 /5 Dj Randol: Stopped in on a road trip and I’m still thinking about that Double Barrel Potato with brisket a week later. Seriously one of the best things I’ve eaten all year.
Picture this: a massive baked potato split open and absolutely loaded with chopped brisket that’s tender, smoky, and has that perfect bark on the edges. Then they pile on melted cheddar, sour cream, butter, green onions, and a generous shake of their house rub. It’s pure Texas comfort food on steroids—rich, smoky, creamy, and somehow still feels like a meal you earned. The portion is huge; one potato easily fed me for lunch and dinner.
Service was lightning fast and genuinely friendly. I walked in, ordered at the counter, and my food was up in under five minutes even though the place was hopping. The cashier called everybody “hon” or “boss” and meant it—you don’t get that kind of warmth at most travel-center BBQ joints.
If you’re anywhere near I-20 in Longview, do yourself a favor and grab the Double Barrel Potato with brisket. It’s ridiculous in the best way possible. I’ll be detouring back here next time I’m within 100 miles. Texas Best indeed!
