Visit Texas: Riscky's Barbecue

While visiting the Stockyards, we had lunch at Riscky's Barbecue.

Brisket Bites

The Brisket Bites were battered, deep fried balls of Riscky's "famous smoked prime brisket."  I thought this was just okay - the meat seem kind of chewy in some parts I bit into.

However, I did enjoy the Texas Sized Sampler, which was indeed Texas-sized!

It included deep fried onion strings, fried pickles, jalapeno cheese curds, fried corn nuggets, and blazing buffalo chicken tenders.  The fried pickles and fried corn nuggets were my fave items on the platter.  I ordered this platter as my meal to share knowing I would share with everyone, and even though everyone indulged in the sampler - there were still lots of leftover bites.

Riscky's Barbecue is a huge restaurant (with a tiny restroom), seating guests both indoors and out.

It was really crowded and there was a small line to get a table, but people were constantly going in and out so the wait wasn't very long.  

Service was really great, and Riscky's Barbecue was an ideal spot for lunch in the Stockyards!
