There is an older place called the Barbeque Inn on Airline that is great. They attract the geriatric crowd (they have been in Houston for years) so the prices are right.  Goode & Co is good by all means for take out.  If you want to dine in - try some place else other than Goode & Co.

I wouldn't go as far as to say this is the best in Houston.  I will say  it's the best i've had from a RESTURANT though.   It's Carl's BBQ.  Its on Hwy 290 headed north on the left.

His brisket and sausage has aditude.  Its makes Luther's BBQ taske like sliced bread!  Of course, this is just my opinion.  Everyone likes it different.

Let me know what you think!
Good ol' Boy
