I’m lucky enough to live 30 minutes away from this place. Everything they cook is top quality and they’re nice people too. Win win. Their cornbread pudding desert is also a must try imo.
@@Holden-uf7 Top quality bbq is always going to be pricey because it's a labor of love to make everything just right. All that meat takes the entire day to cook.
Really loving the content like this. Honestly, there is only so much you can cook. There is also experiments and variations. But seeing your genuine reaction to the food, and talking with the owners/pitmasters who graciously share their knowledge is great! Look forward to all you upcoming videos. And I'm putting all the spots you and other BBQ content creators recommend.
Man that’s cool you grew up Amish. One of the best BBQ reviews I’ve seen in a while. The best thing about it is you hardly put a dent in it so that means late night or early morning craving munchies!!!
I went to UTA in the early 1970's. Ate at all the old school BBQ joints when there were none or very few in Austin. Since then, I've eaten at a lot of the top joints on the Texas Monthly list. I have been to Bar-A-BBQ and would be surprised if they don't make #1 on the next TM list. At least the top 3. Everything they serve is top notch. Thanks for the review video!
Jeremy, it speaks volumes about your character to go see the King of Cold Smoke and see his simple but delicious process firsthand. I believe Coop is going to make cold smoking standard practice in the BBQ world. Bar-A is simply delicious. I bought tallow cookies to take home, but they were gone before I got back to the interstate. 🤣
My son and I have been doing a BBQ tour of Texas for the past 7 out of 10 years. Unfortunately he didn’t join me last year to spend time with his GF. But hopefully the next time you come down to Texas, I recommend trying Mueller’s in Taylor,TX. I mean he taught Aaron Franklin, so you gotta try from his teacher. And secondly KG BBQ… I mean how can you not try an Egyptian who moved to the U.S. just to learn how to smoke great BBQ and start up his own business with a bit of Egyptian flavors. Very highly recommend trying his smoked lamb chops and Egyptian Baladi salad. Only thing I didn’t care for was the smoked Kofta kebab. It was a little too dense for me. Hope you try em
I'm 45 minutes down the road from them, but have never tried it. I need to make a little roadie one day. I live in Brenham, the home of the original Truth BBQ (meh) and LJ's BBQ (where the locals go).
I’m in Australia so a bit hard to get there easily. I followed Al W from EMV take on the beef ribs - wow, what an amazing feast that was and was the first time I’d ever done Dino ribs too - yummm
Bar-A-BBQ has been on our BroBQ tour for a little over a year now! We will be going this spring! Now I know fa sho what days to go. Got to do the Saturday n Sunday. Also merch is up on site guys. Grab it while you can. Caleb got me set up, and i cant wait for the new LIDS to come in! Thanks Mad Scientist for the review.
You should make your way down to South Texas the Rio Grande Valley. Stop first in San Antonia and then make your way down to the Valley San antonio has Reese bros, 2m and then head over to Castroville tx. Eventually getting to Teddys in Weslaco and then final stop at Veras bbq where they are still cooking barbacoa underground
Sooo funny 😂! I got an Oklahoma Joe's smoker a few years ago, just about the same time I found you. After I got it, I saw your reviews on smokers. Ok Joe's may have been the minimum on your review, but it made me feel good! Made your pulled pork awards winning recipe, and it was a defo crowd pleaser. Do prefer the salt and pepper myself.... kinda like you. Then I saw this😂, I smoke all my steaks very similar to this! Temps a lil higher and I finish the of on the gas side. Anytime I talk meat with my friends and co-workers, I tell them they have got to check out (The Mad Scientist BBQ)! Can't thank you enough for what you do! I thank you, my friends thank you, my stomach thanks you! But most importantly, my tastebuds thank you!😊
Interesting cold smoke rib eye. Like to try it myself. Curious as to the "several hours" at around 100 degrees means - what is their typical scheduled hours on the pit before the hard sear?
I unfortunately have the cilantro aversion gene. I thought I could get over it through exposure, so I bought a bunch at the store. I cut it in half and immediately threw it away. It was as pungent as smelling salts. Cilantro in salsa is mandatory though.
I just looked at the prices on their website and i am pleasantly surprised by the pricing of the pork ribs. I would go to a bbq place that is top 3 on Texas monthly and like 4 ribs would be $30 or something ridiculous like that. But with this place you can do 4 ribs for almost half the price. Thats a win imo
Beef is expensive, especially thw high quality beef they use. The better the brisket is, there higher quality it probably is. They ain't cooking Walmart briskets.
I have a great local butcher I frequent and he doesn't f around with ribeyes. He trims the tails and the surrounding excess fat... which I see too many places leave on. It's a better looking steak without.
I absolutely learn from your knowledge & wisdom! (Here’s the butt) butt… why do you add (on purpose) so many jump cuts? It cant be saving you more that a few seconds in the entire video, yet it is so annoying & distracting that I can’t watch it! I’ll listen only, yet I can still tell when there are several jump cuts in a row. Do you get more viewers by trimming a few seconds off of the 20+ minute video? I am happy to watch you for the extra few seconds or even minutes it would add to have your production flow without jump cuts. Please cut out the jump cuts. Thank you so much for your instruction over the years.
Usually I edit the videos but we tested out a new editor for this one so the style was a little different. There was also over 2 hours of footage. There was a lot of chewing that needed to be cut out, so that’s why so many jump cuts or this would have been a long video of Jeremy chewing 😂
Good for you but I don’t think people are coming to a place like this looking for a deal or on a budget for that particular day. They’re there to splurge and get served some of the best que around. Pass up if they don’t debone are you crazy? You’re the only one who would be doing that and the people behind you would be grateful because that means there’s more for the next one who could care less if they debone or not.
Wasteful. Back in my day we’d take the just bone without the meat and boil some tap water and dip the bone in to make some soup, after we were done we would store the bone in the cabinet so we could retrieve it next time we wanted soup. You could probably dip it 50-60 times before it lost all its flavor. (1000% kidding btw 😂)
This dude has worked hard for every single Subscriber he has
You can never go wrong with a place that gives out free beer!
I’m lucky enough to live 30 minutes away from this place. Everything they cook is top quality and they’re nice people too. Win win. Their cornbread pudding desert is also a must try imo.
Hows the pricing? Every time i go to a very top quality bbq spot its like $30 for a few ribs and i easily spend over $150😅
@ its on par with all of the top bbq spots in Texas. No more, no less in my experience
@@Holden-uf7 Top quality bbq is always going to be pricey because it's a labor of love to make everything just right. All that meat takes the entire day to cook.
@@Holden-uf7 Do you go to these spots everyday? I say it's worth it if you're there on a rare occasion or something.
JEALOUS!!!!! 😂🎉

I live in Montgomery (birthplace of the Texas Flag) and I can tell you this place is awesome!
Great Review and Video Jeremy. Looks Fantastic. Thank you for Sharing!!
Bar-A is so good. The brisket, the ribs, THE SAUSAGE, and that damn beef tallow cookie....omg
Well done Jeremy. They are on my list for my next trip. Thanks for doing this.
Ugh I wanted to try that cornbread dessert so bad! Looks so good.

I don't get why people line up for hours when you can go to places like Louie Mueller's and get great bbq with little wait.
I just ate, now I want to eat again. I hope I get to visit one day ! Amazing experience!

I went to high school with coop. Hopefully you got to meet his dad while you were in town. Coach is a hell of a guy
This place was worth the 40 min drive. Can’t wait to go back and try the beef ribs and one of those ribeyes!
Bar A is awesome. Can’t believe you or Chud hasn’t mentioned 1775 in College Station. Easily as good! I’m lucky to have both in my backyard.
1775 is great and the folks who run it are good people.
You had me at Free Miller Lite! Good video, food looked so amazing.
can’t wait to try next month!
haha finally got the dji i see, maybe 🤔
also, shoutout lone mountain bbq
Jeremy my man. You have to go with the rib cap first when you’re going in on the ribeye…. Looks amazing there. Thanks for showing off this gem….
Looks like a terrific find!! Now, if you could only find a place like than near me, in SW Virginia. LOL!
Can’t wait to make it there to try it!
I love bar a bbq, but if you’re ever in the area again, please go try corkscrew barbecue in old town Spring
"Turkey, my favorite..." Def. NOT something one hears every day! 😂 I MUST be good!!! 👍
And that reaction @13:25?? You KNOW it's hittin'!
Ooh, that's less than an hour away! Next on the list!
Food looks so good!
Definitely adding this to my list of restaurants to try if I'm ever in Texas! Lol. Too bad it's 23 hrs away from me! 😅

id like to see what you think of little miss bbq in pheonix arizona. its the only bbq i have ever been to and i can just tell its top tier.
I’m going to Conroe in February I hope I get a chance to make it by there
Sooo funny 😂!

I thank you, my friends thank you, my stomach thanks you!

My mouth watered watching you eat 😂😂
I live 10 minutes from this place. It's really good.
You got me at free beer!!!!
Good God that looks amazing!
I happen to be doing smoked ribeyes right now. Didn’t even know about your video.
Interesting cold smoke rib eye. Like to try it myself. Curious as to the "several hours" at around 100 degrees means - what is their typical scheduled hours on the pit before the hard sear?
The ribeyes smoke for 2 hours at 100 degrees on the smoker then get seared.
Jeremy. I really like your videos. Keep them coming. Also. Check out the Bearded Butchers. I think you’ll like their stuff.
What a mountain of delicious food! - Thanks! - Cheers!
I "wonder" if you could cold smoke in a pellet smoker???
You have got to try Hutchins BBQ in McKinney Texas
Could you do a video on your Amish background? It’s really interesting and I think a lot of people would enjoy that if you don’t mind sharing!
Hundreds of BBQ joints in Texas -- Bar-A-BBQ and Coop in particular are having a moment. I wonder how that happens?
Looks delicious!
Try a slice of sausage with dirty rice on top. Its outstanding.
Hopefully you asked Alec (guy working the pit) about his hat. Smokin Zs is a good spot too.
I’m more impressed by how much you could eat in one sitting 😂
What did they sear the ribeye in - butter, tallow or ??
I unfortunately have the cilantro aversion gene. I thought I could get over it through exposure, so I bought a bunch at the store. I cut it in half and immediately threw it away. It was as pungent as smelling salts. Cilantro in salsa is mandatory though.
😂😂 I feel your pain. It’s the worst!
i wanted to smash the like botton twice!
Gr8 review -Str8
Love their brisket but not fond of the sausage and I’m a sausage snob. Haven’t had the beef rib yet. Plan to soon enough.
Im sold..
20 mins from my house. I need to go!!!
U GO:> "Jethro"!...........................
Nice hoody!
I’ve smoked more ribeyes than I can remember. It’s the only way I’ll cook them now.
wait the free beer is actually a W
That “plate” could feed several small countries……!
Welcome to texas

Nearest airport?
IAH
@ copy that
My only question is, does your wife get frustrated with always having to have the 2nd best bite in BBQ after you take the first? :P
I have a great local butcher I frequent and he doesn't f around with ribeyes.
He trims the tails and the surrounding excess fat... which I see too many places leave on. It's a better looking steak without.
How they in comparison to Franklin
That’s Texas in every way.
Alec!
10:08 - sounds like your wife has the cilantro soap gene! It's a real thing that about 14% of the population have (including myself lmao)
That's a 100 dollar plate when I stopped in back in late an got an 80 dollar plate yummy
Johhny Cake is a cornmeal pancake
Great video and great review by someone who really knows his BBQ and smoked meats
woo!
Well said!
That chicken at @3:16 did not look done... ruclips.net/video/vZ_0q4iOfE0/видео.html
You are always in Tx, might as well move on out here.
Where did you grow up?
Fun fact. Montgomery Texas is the birth place of the Texas flag.
I can finish it.
google says 1 day and 5 hours away.
Rent a car and drive instead.

most important thing, don't squeeze chicken breast.
How weird is it for the camera person to just sit there hungry and film while someone eats?
Weird.
10:39 cilantro is gross. Tastes like dishwashing liquid
Amen.
And people wonder why there are certain things about Minnesota that suck...It's a BBQ wasteland.
most places dont do chicken very risky
I'm sorry but my degenerate mind cannot read that name as anything other than "Bara Barbecue."
Which I would totally go to (not with the family).
Get the beef rib deboned, otherwise you’re paying $8 for the bone. If they won’t debone, pass on it. I don’t buy any type of ribs at a BBQ joint.
Good for you but I don’t think people are coming to a place like this looking for a deal or on a budget for that particular day. They’re there to splurge and get served some of the best que around. Pass up if they don’t debone are you crazy?

😂 yeah ok

They pay for the bone, so you pay for the bone. If they take the bone out the price goes way up. Same at any BBQ joint.
Amish recipes sound kinda cool. Would be down to make some Amish sides.
