Pretty good bbq place! Wasn't my favorite just due to some personal preferences hence 4 stars, but I can tell it's still quality.Loved the ham, mac and cheese, pecan pie, and banana pudding. Also loved that the inside was nice and cool even when it was 105 outside.Pulled pork was kinda a bit too salty for my taste. Ribs were okay.Didn't like the potato salad.Also, it's pretty expensive. Bbq in general is pricey but I thought this place was a bit more than what you got which is why I gave it 4 stars.
Very yummy.. a little hard for disabled to see sides and options for meats. Very nice staff. Okra was great. Turkey and brisket also cooked very tender! They have ribs and bacon wrapped shrimp.. the sausage is peppery. But good. Ham was amazing. Got peach cobbler .. salad and drinks.. kinda pricey. But if your in the mood for smoked meats this is your place. They have a gigantic smoke house. Took some pictures for you! Beautiful dining room. Looks like a full bar too if your interested in that.
Make sure you check the weight of your order. This is the 3rd time I've visited Hard Eight locations and had way more than I ordered. I ordered 1/2 pound of brisket and ribs (appx $21) and when I checked out she said $34 for the meats...they had cut 1.67 pounds (3 ribs and a slab of brisket)This time I pushed back and asked for what I requested. She took the tray back, removed some and I was down to $25 when done.As usual, the food was awesome and the beans are AMAZING. To me perfect except for the continual over cutting of the meats.
great food and nice family atmosphere
Incredible BBQ. Ribs are spectacular
the staff was very polite and helpful and the food was so amazing
Please follow us on Facebook and Instagram at SNDTRAVELS and Eat Well Travel OftenSo, if you want to open a restaurant with the most possible competition per square mile, open a BBQ joint in Texas. Not only is there one on every other corner but in a high percentage of gas stations. Then, of course, we all have smokers in our backyards and think we do it best. You better be good.So today, I tried somewhere new for me. Hard-eight BBQ in Burleson, Texas. This is a no frills service were you walk up to the pitmaster and order by the pound only. No plated or combo meals; it's a la carte. There are complimentary homemade self-serve red beans that were very good. I didn't try any other sides. My meat choices were the brisket, ribs and regular sausage. All of the meats were very good with just the right amount of smoke. The brisket and ribs were both tender and the flavor was great. I won't say it was the best, as that's a tough decision, but certainly in the upper tier of local flavors.Recommended ?.
Great concept. Love seeing the meat cooked in front of you and the ability to order a steak to order exactly how you like it. Sides are good. The restaurant itself is very open and has a very good atmosphere. The staff and very friendly and helpful. The ribs, brisket and chicken are very good. Love the BBQ sauce.
We came all the way from NY last weekend to pickup dogs for the rescue we volunteer for SNARR Northeast. We where looking for a place with great BBQ and boy did we find it! Not only is the staff extremely friendly but the food is amazing! The atmosphere is awesome as well! Our new dinner spot when we are picking up pups!
