In 1977, Jim Goode opened his first restaurant, near downtown. But Goode hit upon a winning combination of authentic Texas barbecue and caring service. That first cafe has grown into four restaurants under the Goode Co. banner. Even though Goode has since added burgers and seafood to his lineup, barbecue remains the company's mainstay. At Goode Co., the barbecue is slow-cooked for 16 hours, making it mouthwatering tender. Then it's topped with a delicious sauce bursting with smoky, tomato flavor. Sausage (from a well-guarded recipe), fresh pies and bread are made daily, including a Goode Co. exclusive: jalapeno cheese bread. The atmosphere is basic Texana. A cafeteria style serving line snakes through an old barn building jammed with Texas memorabilia, historic photos, and mounted cow heads. There isn't much seating but most folks head out for the patio anyway. And now there's the Goode Co. BBQ Hall of Fame with cooking tools, sauces, marinades and the famous Goode Company's Brazos Bottom Pecan Pie and online ordering. -- Olivia Flores Alvarez

Mediocre at best!

This is the most OVERRATED place in Houston! Yes, the Jalapeno bread is good (it's sad when a BREAD is the best thing you have to offer). The BBQ is mediocre at best. Slather it with sauce to get some taste if you do choose to eat here.

The Jalapeno Cheese Bread Is Simply Scrumptuous!!!

Goode Co. BBQ is one of my fave places to eat when I'm in the city...either by my wonderful church on the SW Freeway or in West Houston. Both are wonderful haunts to sit down and savor the flavor of REAL slow-smoked BBQ! I always get mine on the freshly baked Jalapeno Cheese Bread with a Texas slathering of their wonderful bbq sauce! I'm salivating now just thinking about it! YUMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!
