Now this……… wow! Brisket was delicious, moist, and tender! I would definitely come back! The spicy sausage is actually spicy, so be careful they have a good kick. I highly recommend this joint! The whole experience was great! It is a little warm in the outer room with fans but if you want your food to stay warm this is the best option. Inside you will be in the fresh A/C but your food will get cold so eat it fast…. up to you… again come check them out! Macaroni and cheese was really good and creamy!

Good food, an interesting vibe with staff who are friendly and helpful. A bit pricey but it offers a memorable environment: it’s really fun to walk past the large metal ovens where the meat cooks, then stop to place your order for the meat. The rest of the food options (potato salad etc) and drinks are through a door and laid out on your right in cafeteria style.

Best steak I’ve had in Texas!!!!!! Cooked perfectly. Flavorful. Tender. Just the way it should be. Pit master even waited for me to cut into it to make sure it was right. My smile told him we were good! Well done bro. Seriously

Bro lunch with one of my son in laws. The jalapeño sausage was off the hook good. The pork ribs were on point as well. “Hard eight famous fries” lived up to their name. Just perfect in my opinion.

When you walk in, you pass by the smokers and then up to the first station where you select your meat.

Now, I did get to-go and drove half an hour to get home…..The Ribeye needs more ( like way more flavor). The sirloin (which is low on my list of cuts) was !Fantastic!,, The Brisket again I would love to have had a smokier flavor. I am not usually one to use BBQ sauce on anything smoked but with this meat I did . We also had 6 bacon wrapped shrimp. They were okay. Again with the lack of flavor…..But! The sauce here is the Best I Have Had. So, I would highly recommend both sauces be used on the meats to make it a truly good experience. Let’s not forget the sides Mac great. Potato salad meh, corn on the cob yummy. I really wish you had fried okra…..And dessert! Waaaaaay to small………

Such an amazing place! I missed the chance to eat at the original place in Stephenville while I was living there, but I wasn’t missing my chance here! I got the sliced brisket sandwich, corn on the cob, chips and a drink! All for about 14ish dollars. Not a bad deal and with unlimited beans, we ate our moneys worth. Honestly one of the better brisket sandwiches that I have had here in Texas, and I would recommend to a friend. I thought the food was wonderful, and the service was amazing! The gentleman who was serving the meats was super helpful and was willing to work with me on what would be best. The ladies at the sandwich building bar and checkout were really fun to chat with, and reminded me to get butter for my corn on the cob. Overall an amazing experience!!!

My husband chose this place to celebrate our 3 year anniversary. It was a fun place to be. I love the country music that they played, and all the staff we encountered were friendly. I’m allergic to pork, so I was excited to be able to have a smoked bolo sandwich! It was made from all beef. I also got a brisket baked potato and my husband chose ribs, sausage and shrimp poppers. The food is a la carte unless you get the sandwich meal. The sides were not the best, except the onion rings, but the meat was good. The bar b que sauce was also good and the pecan pie. I don’t know if I would return, because I’ve had better bar b que for the price, but if someone invited me, I would go.

My family and I were in town for the weekend and Hard Eight BBQ was recommended by our Airbnb host. We had lunch on Saturday, June 24, 2023 and their food was so delicious. In Houston we don’t order BBQ in this way off the pit so the gentleman were very helpful, patient, and understanding. The cashier Tina was so awesome! She was so polite, helpful, informative, welcoming and all around an amazing employee with impeccable customer service. We warmed the food up in the microwave the next day and it was all still mouthwatering, juicy and falling apart tender. Most of the time as you know that isn’t the norm with bbq, when you microwave bbq leftovers they are usually dried out and tough. My family and I would drive all the way from Houston just to eat here again. We can’t wait to go back soon! Y’all need to build a Hard Eight in Deer Park, Pasadena or Houston area! Please!! The only issue we came across was the young man right inside the door after we placed our meat order asked me if we wanted bbq and I told him yes but then said that we wanted it wrapped up to go if possible and he was very rude and said yes I know that is why I’m asking. This was our first time at this restaurant and everyone was so welcoming, helpful and polite except for that young man, but we didn’t let that ruin our time. Thank you Tina for all your help and kindness and hope you are there next time we visit!

We came in from Michigan for the Lions vs Dallas game and wanted to try some BBQ that was close to our AirBnB. We took a chance on Hard Eight and we were not disappointed.
