If you liked the Luling City Market in Luling, then don't miss this location. The owners aren't related, but the restaurants have the same concept and recipes, giving Houston a taste of small-town barbecue the way it ought to be.

As at the old hometown meat markets, you order up brisket and pork ribs by weight here. We were smitten with both the smoky, moist brisket and the crunchy, spicy ribs, both served up with coleslaw, beans, and potato salad. We didn't get to try beef links and chicken, but if they come close to the other items, they're sure winners.

Location:

• 4726 Richmond. (713) 871-1903
