Reese Bros is top notch Q within the city limits of Sán Antonio. I had them cater a company party last minute and they were very accommodating.

After battling away the army of flies that seemed to want this food more than I did, I realized I had been bamboozled. The sides were fine. The sausage was okay. Tortillas were decent. The brisket and carnitas was super tough and dry. Nothing blew me away. In today’s BBQ world, not every meat can be fully perfect. But I expect one or two things to blow my behind off. As long as that happens, I’m fine.
And sure, I get it, bbq has exploded in popularity and places have to resort to using subpar cuts and have to cook in huge batches which sacrifices quality. But at least it could’ve had some spice and smoke flavor to it. Some places where even if it’s dry as leather, it’s flavorful. Here, nothing. Just… hard plain rubber with bands of unrendered fat. No deep smoky flavor, no salt. Nothing. Reese, my bro’s, what’s going on? You’re great at making Pieces but what happened to the BBQ??
In this week I’ve tried more bbq than should be allowed across texas, and of them, this is my least favorite, unfortunately. I was hoping this would be the sleeper hit of San Antonio but I have been pranked.

This place is great, I got there at 8:45. There was no need, I could’ve gotten there at 10:00 and still had a great spot. But I do like being the first one, anyways the food was excellent. My top two recommendations from here are the brisket and the poblano Mac, 5 stars. The turkey surprised me, they did an excellent job on this, super juicy and the perfect amount of seasoning kudos for had. The ribs, sausage and carnitas were also pretty good. The sausage got better to me the more I ate it, the centers were perfect very good amount of cheese. Cole slaw and potato salad very complimentary to meal. I can see why this place is in the top 50, great job to the team. If I could make a few suggestions, have some plastic that you use for your sides at the “to go station” it’s allot easier to put stuff in that then wrap everything in the aluminum foil that no telling how many hands have touched, I wasn’t crazy about that. I went to the front and asked for some and was told to use aluminum foil. Second thing, I’d prefer to swipe my card once for something simple like sodas, having to the bar was an extra step but I get it the the alcohol. I don’t drink, but I’ll say she and one of the guys that helps clean up was the only two I saw smiling and were friendly. These are small things but left a little bit of a sour taste in my mouth. Great food, y’all definitely know what y’all are doing

Great service and cute outdoor tables to eat. No inside dining. Parking is free in rear of restaurant in an unpaved big lot about 200 ft away. Arrived today at 11:30am and got to the cashier at 12pm. I’m sure the cold weather helped the line not be as bad as I heard it usually is.
The pros: the homemade tortillas were hot and fresh, the orange salsa was amazing and not too spicy, the queso fundido sausage was unique and had a nice bite to it, and the chicken pozole verde hit the spot on a cold day (although $10 for a pint seemed a bit steep). The service and ambience were great!
The cons: brisket had more of a pot roast/steamed/braised texture vs smoked texture. Perhaps it was the manner it is held to temp while awaiting service. Not sure how they store it. Brisket did not have much of a bark. The flavor and smoke profile were excellent though. The “carnitas” were more reminiscent of pulled pork and were good with sauce added.

Parking is free in the back, which is very convenient. We tried almost everything on the menu and were impressed with most of it. The brisket was well-smoked and flavorful, the ribs were tender, and the smoked turkey was a pleasant surprise. The sausage was solid, and the carnitas were very tender and delicious.
For sides, we got the poblano mac, okra and beans, coleslaw, and potato salad. The poblano mac was okay, the okra and beans were enjoyable, and the coleslaw was unique not your typical coleslaw but would pair perfectly with tacos. I’d recommend getting some flour tortillas if you order the coleslaw to make your own tacos. The potato salad was fair.
The restaurant offers two types of barbecue sauce, both of which were really good. There’s also a convenient station where you can grab aluminum, bags, utensils, paper food boats and lids if you want to take your food to go. The space is open and welcoming, the staff was very friendly, and drinks are ordered separately, but water is available.
Overall, we really enjoyed our experience and would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for good barbecue.

Dang, that’s good food. It’s some kind of BBQ Mexican fusion action. My wife and I got something called torta brisket and one turkey. It was off the hook good. Their herb cole slaw was really good. I mean I brought home food and it was a good price. Best BBQ place I’ve been to in a long time. It’s good i dont live in San Antonio, or I’d be eating here everyday day its open.

This is probably the best BBQ I’ve ever eaten. The pozole was amazing, you HAVE to order that. The brisket and pulled pork were smoked perfectly and had so much flavor.
I love the atmosphere of the restaurant as well.
The price is definitely on the higher side but well worth it. I’ll be back for sure

Surpassed the hype. We got a little of everything on the menu. The poblano Mac and cheese was some of the best I’ve ever had, potato salad was perfect. Brisket was moist and tender, turkey as well. Carnitas were great, sausage was great, but the ribs stole the show. We’re just visiting and this place may have ruined bbq anywhere else for me. Only comparison is to Terry Blacks, and this took the cake. I thought the prices were very fair, well worth it.

OMGosh… the best little place we’ve ever eaten! Going back to hotel we typed in BBQ to grab a bite; little did we know what this place was like!!! First of all, don’t expect formal, this is a step – maybe two above a food truck!! Second, if you’re looking for a hostess and inside seating – ha-ha!! THIRD… and most importantly, if you are looking for some of “the” best BBQ in Texas, then come here! We tried several others while in TX and none came close to Reese’s, hands down!!!
Yes, it is intimidating when you walk up to order, and yes we were the only “gringos” there, but these guys behind the counter are phenomenal and must of sensed our bewilderment and jumped right in to help and made us feel most comfortable. One asked did we have Q?s – little did he know! Yet he worked us through, even gave us samples so we knew exactly what was… we finally decided on ribs, Pablano mac & cheese and potato salad. OMGosh, this place puts the “bigger” in Texas!! We both ate two meals off of it. Best “biggest” ribs the other side of the river, the sides were bigger than the back forty!! And to add to the experience they play Latin music that we got to danced to (love that)- double whammy!! If you’re in the San Antonio area and miss this place to eat, shame on you! You have no rights to compare BBQ. The only down side to this place is it is not located nearer to my home in FL!!!

We came here for lunch on a Thursday at 11 when they opened. People were lined up already. Don’t let that scare you, the line moves quickly.
I wanted to try a lot of things and ordered darn near everything in the menu.
What a fantastic experience! The food is incredible! I mean absolutely fantastic! The service is top notch and everyone is so nice!
Let’s talk price. Half pound of brisket, 2 huge sausages, the Verde burger, half pound of turkey, all 4 sides(large) and a costa(sp?), plus 3 bottles of water…$110
In ohio for lesser food that would be $225-$250.
Well done. 100%recommend.
P.s. Please come to Youngstown, oh!

Crazy good BBQ! Tried the pork ribs, brisket, queso fundido sausage, and the carnitas and all of them were very well spiced/seasoned and smoked to absolute tenderness.
The ribs were smoky and peppery with a good bit of crust on top, the brisket was pull-apart tender and super flavorful, the sausage had a decent amount of cheese and the spices were excellently blended, and the carnitas were just killer on the taco.
Also had the poblano mac and the potato salad, both a great side item to the meats. And can’t forget the salsa, BBQ sauce, and tortillas! This place ranks above 2M IMO from the ribs and brisket alone, and the atmosphere is very open and chill. Recommend to anyone wanting to try an excellent local BBQ spot.
