3. Burns Bar BQ

NORTH HOUSTON.   Reputedly serving some of Houston's best barbecue, Burns is a longstanding tradition in these parts. The place is essentially take-out, although a few outdoor picnic tables accommodate those who lack sufficient willpower to wait. The East Texas-style barbecue is more than fork-tender and, when topped with Burns' delectable sauce, practically irresistible. Beef brisket is the standard, but you'll also find great ribs, sausages, and chicken. A few sides can be had as well. If you come during the day, you'll likely encounter crowds; if you wait till later, you may discover that certain items have already sold out. Such is the price of popularity.   (© 10Best)

Best texas-style you will ever eat Recent trip to Houston area allowed me to sample some good BBQ. Went to Pappas, etc. but Burns was by far the best. Funky little place, carcinogenic cloud hanging over the counter, bread was just Wonder, pickles and onions were served on the side in baggies, but the meat was absolutely delicious, and not slathered in texas ketchup, neither. I had to make yummy sounds on every bite. Smokey, but not overly. Tender, succulent, flavorful in every way. A true orgy in your mouth.
