Space City BBQ Food Truck

You might have to brave the Houston heat and humidity, but this Texas Monthly Top 100 BBQ award winner is a food truck with real potential. The spot has a lot going for it, even if a few tweaks could land it in the top 50. The brisket was a highlight—moist, delicious, and seasoned simply with salt, pepper, and garlic (SPG), letting the quality of the meat shine through. The ribs had a good pull and weren't too "hammy" for a spare rib, though I found the garlic seasoning a bit heavy. The pork belly burnt ends were a great cut of meat, with a rich, buttery flavor and a savory fat cap. While they were good, I personally prefer a sweeter burnt end with less garlic. The jalapeño and cheese sausage was my least favorite of the meal. The double-grind texture was nice, but it lacked a rich, deep flavor, and the use of a white cheese instead of the traditional cheddar was an unexpected choice. As for the sides, the cornbread casserole was a delicious and mild-flavored classic. The pinto beans were a standout, packed with flavor and elevated by the inclusion of pork belly burnt ends mixed in. Overall, this is a very good barbecue spot, but it leans a bit heavily on garlic in its seasoning. I'd definitely recommend checking it out, especially when the weather is a bit cooler.

Brisket was excellent. Not cut thin like the wannabe places. Sausage was great..potato salad and Mac and cheese all good. I would definitely say the best bbq in the area and I eat alot of bbq

The best BBQ that I know of for purchase anywhere near Mont Belvieu, Baytown, Anahuac, or Highlands. I seriously believe buying BBQ anywhere else in these areas is a waste of money unless there is some hidden gem that I am unaware of. I’ve had some very good home cooked BBQ and I have had some really good BBQ at a few select locations around Houston, but here locally around Baytown the chains I’m accustomed too have nothing on this establishment. The biggest complaint I’ve heard is their hours make it tough to get there, but I will tell you this, the meats coming out of this little food truck are an experience more than a meal, and completely worth the effort of making a plan to swing by during their normal business hours. Everything is so tender and flavorful, it’s difficult to describe other than IYKYK, and if you don’t, you need to find out!

Finally got to stop in and try this BBQ food truck, it did not disappoint. Since it was our first time we basically ordered a little of everything including some specials. Ordered the Big Back Box which is a sample platter consisting of 2 meats( I did brisket & turkey) a burger, sausage link a boudain link and two sides.( I did mac & cheese and cornbread casserole) Also ordered the pulled pork grilled cheese, peach tea glazed burnt ends and a 1/2 rack of ribs. Everything we tried was out of this world, pun intended. I'd definitely recommend the burnt ends, super flavorful and tender. The cornbread casserole was delicious and not dry at all. The brisket had a nice bark and taste, the turkey had a great flavor and juicy. I'd highly recommend this place to anyone BBQ lovers.

Great food and great people running the truck! I will be back. The brisket was the delicious and the BBQ sauce was unique in flavor.

I had heard about this place from a buddy of mine and was fortunate enough to be in the area for work, and boy, this place did not disappoint at all!! I stopped by and got a half pound of turkey, brisket and a sausage link and it was absolutely amazing! It was seasoned perfectly and piping hot. Definitely stopping by again even when i'm not working. Definitely try these guys out! Thanks again!

Great food. Bbq cooked perfectly. Looks like there were 2 people running this busy trailer. Hopefully, one day they'll have a building with all the extras to keep you cool at the end of June. Lol. Brisket was smoky and tender. Ribs were juicy and finger licking good. Burnt ends were top 10. We ordered a taco to try and it was seasoned to perfection. The sides of beans and corn casserole would be even better in the middle of a cold front, but were still great with our three meat order. Y'all get to Baytown and get you some delicious bbq and maybe it will get them off the street faster and into their own place, which they deserve.
