Cooper's Old Time Pit -b-que

I had heard about Coopers for a few years but had never been there. One day, I was on a bus trip near College Station and stopped in with the group for lunch. I made the mistake of ordering the beef ribs. The price was 13.99 for a half pound and came with pinto beans included as well as barbecue sauce, bread, pickles and onions. I ordered the half pound and the guy cut it and then weighed it. Now the price came to 15.50 since I guess my ribs were slightly more than a half pound. I started eating and the first 7 bits were pretty decent…and then tons of fat. I can’t believe I spent 15.50 for 7 bites of meat! I have never had such a disappointing experience at a barbecue place.

Don’t be misled by the ranking (currently #42). This is the BEST bbq in town. I have eaten at all the rest, including C&J, Rudy’s, etc. Also, this is a more upscale place. It is relatively new and clean. They have a GREAT bar with a lot of tvs. Aiden is a great bartender. Troy is so friendly. The owners are awesome people who make you feel at home. I enjoy Saturdays with my wife at the bar watching ball games. All the meats are great. The sides are generally good, too. The cole slaw, potato salad and green beans are not exceptional but adequate. Everyone’s taste in these seems to vary. The best sides are the twice baked potatoes and the jalapeno mac n cheese. These should please anyone.

I went with my little brother and the food was way too high for the quality. My ribs was so salty. Mac and cheese was disguising, and the bbq sauce tasted old and like pure vinegar. I spent $56 on our food. Then the guy who was helping with our food was not wearing gloves when touching the bread after he touched everything in his area. I will never eat here again. And it was a waste of $56. I suggest you not eat here. Their food is horrible and way over priced. Very unsanitary the way they handle food.

Great brisket and sausage! My son got a half slab of ribs and while he said they were tasty, he did say they were a bit over seasoned. Overall very good food and excellent service from start to finish!Kid-friendliness: Nice ol style atmosphere for kids to enjoy.

Our favorite BBQ in Aggieland! The brisket is top notch and you must get it baptized!! The jalapeño Mac n cheese is the bomb! This is a fantastic spot for large groups and great play area for the littles on the patio! Just an all around great experience!
