No complaints at all, one of the best barbecue places here in Corpus Christi.
They are and were extremely generous with the meat portions.
My girl had the 3 meat poboy with brisket, sausage and chopped beef. That sandwich was HUGE!
I had the 3 meat plate with 2 sides
I had the moist brisket which was mouthwatering, I had the jalapeno sausage, extremely tasty and I had the pork ribs.
Everyone in Corpus Christi, there’s a reason people keep coming back, if you’re new to Corpus Christi or if you’re here on vacation, Howard’s Barbecue is definitely a must!

It was a good time.
The food was good.
NOT the best but good.
Service was on point, I love the old-school feel inside, with plenty of room.
I’ll return.

Hi!, BBQ Woody here. Well, i loved the atmosphere..but very warm on a 65° day. I had the pulled pork and pork ribs. The ribs and the pork had great flavor. Unfortunately, i had to use a knife to get some of the meat from the bones. The different beans choice was different for me..but…thankyou for being the 1st true Tx bbq place ive been to in the Coastal bend. I might suggest that u update your google review options forbyour customers so we can choose what we ate. BBQ Woody

Classic Southern barbecue restaurant. Plates are a great value – one or two meats should do the trick (I liked the brisket better than the sausage), and you can fill you whole plate the rest of the way with veggies and other sides. Big fan of the butter beans and vinegar apple slaw.

We have pretty high expectations when it comes to BBQ, and Howard’s met them!! The meats were all delicious and cooked perfectly. The brisket was so tender, juicy and flavorful it melted in my mouth! The jalapeno sausage had great flavor and was also cooked perfectly. The ribs were meaty and well cooked. They weren’t sloppy fall of the bone, but stayed together for a good bite. We also tried the chicken, which was flavorful, especially with the house bbq sauce which had a distinct honey flavor. I loved it!! I also loved the bar full of sides so you can choose your own. There was a fresh salad bar, along with 3 kinds of beans to pick from. Don’t miss out on the Cole slaw, probably the best cole slaw side I’ve had at a bbq place! There are apples in it, it’s so good! The potato salad was also tasty. Grab a slice of carrot cake for dessert, you’ll thank me later.

Could just as easily be called WOWard’s BBQ!
Near downtown CC, rustic older building. Friendliest staff! Manager was there enjoying her lunch as well.
Lowest BBQ prices encountered in Texas, but doesn’t compromise the quality (3-meat with 3 sides for 16.95!!)! Beef short ribs are a must; brisket light but tasty bark, jalapeño sausage with nice kick. And the sides are self-serve with something for everyone from salads to three kinds of beans. Potato salad is excellent, with mustard kick.
Manager said they keep prices low to keep people coming in and folks employed…at these prices for this quality you can’t afford NOT to eat at Howard’s!

I heard great things about this place but unfortunately not to thrilled. Food was okay….service was nice and informative! I spent $43 on the all you can eat and was quickly disappointed. It could’ve been the time of day I came to the restaurant which was 2pm, but the ribs and brisket tasted very dry. I’m a HUGE bbq lover and always see people stopping by here so I was so sad when I didn’t like it. The carrot cake is pretty good tho!

Now that’s some fine BBQ!
The brisket had just the right amount of smoke.
The sausage with jalapeno …delish! Not too hot, just right.
The BBQ sauce had mesquity tones and nice syrupy thickness.
Yum yum yum
I highly recommend Howard’s BBQ when you’re in Corpus Christi!
