Hill Country BBQ - Washington, DC

What's NEXT: I made it to Hill Country BBQ for my 24th birthday along with a group of friends. It was a Friday night and we made a reservation a few days prior. It was pretty busy with happy hour and the dinner crowd so I was happy there were no issues with our reservation. We showed up and got escorted to our seats.

What's interesting about this restaurant is the meal ticket system. Each person gets their own ticket and can order meats by lb or their "packages" for 1, 2 or 4 people. Our side of the table decided to get a "Everything's bigger in Texas for $97". It comes a whole Pound of Lean Brisket, Four Pork Spare Ribs, Four Beef Ribs, a Whole Chicken and any 4 Sides. This meal is advertised for 4 people but it can definitely feed 6 people no problem. 

The meats were delicious! I would definitely get the Brisket, Spare Ribs and Beef Ribs again no problem. I thought the chicken could be better, but it was still decent.

As far as the sides go, a lot of people enjoyed the corn pudding, sweet potato bourbon mash and the collard greens. I thought they were A-Okay. Nothing amazing, but you wouldn't come here for the sides anyway right?

I also enjoyed heaping 32oz Sweet Tea here. It's perfect to pair with your BBQ.

Overall, I enjoyed the food and atmosphere here. It's a little pricy, but expect BBQ to run you around $20, especially in DC. I saw that they have $20 all you can eat Mondays and live bands daily so definitely can't wait to come back!
