J Bar M BBQ
The Atlas Review
The BBQ Atlas
Central Texas barbecue, done right, in a Houston smokehouse that knows what it's doing.
J Bar M BBQ trades in the essentials: brisket, house-made sausage, post oak smoke, and the kind of restraint that comes from understanding your craft. Offset smokers, Central Texas method, no flourish required.
It's a restaurant and event space on Leeland Street. Michelin has taken notice. So have Texas Monthly and the Houston Chronicle. The work speaks for itself.
