This is the closest thing you can get to authentic Texas BBQ without being in Texas. Flavor is insane, bbq sauces are tasty and the spicy sauce is actually very spicy (I loved it) There was also a cheese dipping sauce option as well which was spicy and creamy, a surprisingly valid sauce option along with the bbq sauces. Brisket is so tender an infant with no teeth can eat it unsupervised. Kielbasa was valid, and the pastrami rib was solid; too much fat for me personally but the meaty parts were Smokey and tender with a little bite to it. You can see the cinnamon roll in the picture, need I say more about that?
Whole plate pictured was $58 and was able to be shared by 2 and we both were full after. (Took the cinnamon roll home)
If you go for brunch the menu gets a little freaky and a lot isn’t offered but what is offered is very good. I definitely will go back during the week to try the regular menu. After trying what I had, I’m excited to order the Texas trinity.
5 stars, highly recommended for anyone who is looking for delicious southern style bbq while in Buffalo NY.

Somehow, this place transcended the considerable and well deserved hype. Bustling, popular spot with excellent staff. I went for a 2 and 2 with brisket (melt in your mouth fatty cut, the stuff of dreams), barbacurry (show stealing miracle of a dish, gorgeous beef with curry and cilantro), cardamom cornbread (surely, enough said), and a refreshing slaw. Traveling solo, I found a seat at the bar and didn’t have to stand in the long line. But I would have! A must hit spot in wonderful Buffalo, New York!

We had a great meal tried 5 of the different meats available and each one was delicious in its own way. You can’t go wrong with any pick here. Definitely show up hungry!
The seating area is relatively limited but we came in on a Friday around 5:30 and got a table for 2 and it didn’t seem like anyone was with no seating.

Best BBQ I’ve had and I’ve had BBQ from the south. The sides are amazing. I got the Turkey and the ribs. Ive also had the brisket before. The corn bread muffin is perfection. Love the mac and cheese with cornbread crumbs.
Also i got the Texas twinky- Jalapeño stuffed with cream cheese and brisket, wrapped in bacon and smoked. Awesome

I came without much barbecue experience, but the staff made me feel welcome and helped me pick out a protein and sides. I loved all the flavors of every dish. After one meal, I now have an insatiable craving for Southern Junction, so I guess I will have to return to Buffalo!

You can’t go wrong here!! I have been a couple of times and I make a point to go EVERYTIME I’m in Buffalo. EVERYTHING on the menu is great. The staff members are very friendly and helpful. You HAVE to get at least one Texas Twinkie trust me you will want to take a couple home for later. Get there early or late though as they are very busy when they are open but if you have to stand in line it will be worth your wait.

Come to this hungry! The Foldie 10/10
We also ordered the cinnamon roll and it’s pretty big & shareable
Staff was great when we asked for recommendations on food and drinks. They got us to try a new drink – the Sazón which is a sweeter drink – perfect for crunching

Amazing and faithful commitment to Texas BBQ standards, with a beautiful marriage to Indian inspiration and aspiration. Specific transcendence of flavor and locales. A tribute to this city—a jewel. A tribute to Texas, to India, and to mothers.
I do not know you, Sir and Ma’am, but oh, how I am grateful you chose Buffalo as the venue to share your passion. In one night—nay, in one meal—you have grown to Josh Allen adoration levels.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
A devout first timer and future regular

Best Barked Brisket in Buffalo. The Flat Iron Steak and pickled onions were a close second. I used every bit of the what I believed to be brioche bread. It was the perfect vehicle to shovel the meat. I will go back even though the price for the amount you get was making you think. Great relaxed atmosphere. The 2 man band was enjoyable and wasn’t too loud. A nice experience.

One of the best places to enjoy barbecue. Worth every pricey spent. Be prepared for an hour long wait and self service. Kind owner and fast service:)
