First sweet tea and first Texas BBQ! We were brought here by friends while visiting the area and they said that locals love and reference this place often. The atmosphere was great. Felt like a destination and the food was good. The potato salad had a mustard base, the cole slaw was not overly dressed, and the meat was soft and tasty on its own. The sauce was more tomato based than tangy so I used it sparingly. The sweet tea was so delicious I must have drank my weight in cups that day. Fermin was working the covered and fanned patio where we sat and he was extraordinary. The entire time he took care of us as though we were at a 5 star high end restaurant. He held the door open for us, cleared our plates, offered refills, and was incredibly pleasant. I’m so happy we ate here. The atmosphere, food, and having a Houstonian experience was all nice and Fermin, took it over the top. He was amazing.

Our first Texas BBQ. Visiting Houston for the first time, and our friends took us here. We told them we wanted to try a spot that the locals consider great BBQ, and it didn’t disappoint. I had the brisket with mac&cheese and jambalaya texana. So, SO GOODE! Oh, I almost forgot the jalepeño cheese bread and banana pudding – WOW is the only way to describe those! The service was outstanding. Easy to order. Sat outside on the patio and although it was a hot day, the covered patio and the ceiling fans made it comfortable. Definitely going to have more Goode Co BBQ when we return to Houston!

Hands down one of the best BBQ spots in Houston. The brisket was insanely tender with that perfect smoke, the sides actually hit (not an afterthought), and the portions are solid. Probably the best mac and potato salad I’ve had — creamy, balanced, and done right. Service was quick, friendly, and the whole vibe feels classic Texas.
Also random but true — I was literally sitting here checking my NOVA vehicles and they’re still making passive income while I eat. That’s a win. ✅

Hard to go wrong here, but I recommend the loose brisket and jalepeño cheese bread. If you ask for it chopped, they won’t be using an ice cream scoop to dish out last week’s beef/sloppy joe. You will get brisket, cut-to-order, chopped in front of you. Try the jambalaya for one of your sides. Pictured is a pound of loose brisket. If you prefer lean brisket, I’m afraid I can’t help you. But they have it. Also famous for their pecan pie. My favorite BBQ in Houston for decades now.

I was in the area and decided to stop in for lunch. I used to frequent Goode Company BBQ when I lived nearby and remembered it always being pretty good, so I decided to give it another try. I ordered a chopped brisket baked potato. Right away I appreciated that they prepare the potato properly with the sauce on the side. At first, the portion of meat looked small, but once everything came together it was just enough and it tasted fantastic! 10/10. I’ll definitely be visiting again soon.

Got a two meat plate to go. Green beans and Mac and cheese were good. Jalapeño bread was just ok. Could have gotten a little more meat.

We were in Houston for the National HOSA competition and had never had true Texas BBQ. This place did not disappoint. We ordered brisket, pork ribs, jalapeño pork sausage, half chicken, and ham, All of the meat was tender and juicy. We especially enjoyed the half chicken and pork ribs. I didn’t care for the beans but that could just be personal preference.
The service was outstanding when sitting outside. The gentleman cleaning tables and helping guests checked on us at least five times. If in Houston, check it out.

Goode Company BBQ absolutely lived up to the hype. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was spot-on—casual, comfortable, and full of that Texas BBQ charm.
They were out of brisket when I stopped by (which was a bit of a bummer), but the smoked turkey po’boy more than made up for it. Juicy, flavorful, and perfectly smoked—it was honestly one of the best turkey sandwiches I’ve ever had.
The mac and cheese was stellar—creamy, cheesy, and just the right amount of richness. The seasoned rice was also on point and tied everything together.
I always have to try the banana cream pie wherever I go, and while it looked promising, it was the only part of the meal that didn’t wow me. Just okay—not bad, just not on the same level as everything else.
Highly recommend this place to anyone in the area, and I’ll definitely be back the next time I’m in Houston for work.

Visited on (2/22/25) and I was very impressed. The food was fresh and tasty. Nice variety of BBQ and drinks, all for a very reasonable price. I ordered the chopped brisket sandwich, turkey and chicken combo player w/ green beans and jambalaya rice, and banana pudding.
The memorabilia and photos of past times gave a down home old western style feel to it, although the lighting in the establishment could be a little brighter. I will definitely be back to when I visit the upper Kirby area.
