Rockets red glare Enjoy authentic Texas bbq served up with heaps of brisket and a healthy dose of draft beer by the pitcher...but when will that slingbox make an appearance? Can we expect to see any 2006 NCAA bowl games?

Beans and Cornbread is good I complained about both the watery beans and the savoury, non-Jiffy cornbread when I had them as side dishes, but The Texan's right... when combined together, they're quite tasty!

I'll get my chance when we launch 'Ollie's Oklahoma Trailer Joint' :-)

I ordered some food here through Goodies Beijing last week and can safely say it was the worst, sub-standard food I have ever had. Meat was bad quality and inedible and the "coleslaw" was merely tired looking cabbage with not a hint of dressing. Would stay well clear of this place.

The Texas sized brisket was fairly small but tasty. The beef ribs were enormous but a little tough. The pork ribs and the cornbread were rather good but the beans were a little tasteless. A so so experience.

Brisket & slaw were both too dry for my taste. Pork ribs had excellent flavor and a nice layer of fat. Cornbread was good.

Tip: It's on the east side of Dongdaqiao Rd., just south of Guanghua Rd (don't be fooled by the map on their website).

Went to this restaurant again a couple of weeks ago. Pork ribs were excellent this time. Service was friendly and good. Sat on the second floor which was smoke free and had room for the kids to run around.

Hey - thanks for giving us another try. I'm afraid that the total food and service had deteriorated at the former location and business arrangment. Since our move to the new location we've put in a lot of hard work to get back that friendly service and ensure that no corners are cut, when it comes to the quality of food. We get a lot of repeat customers so we must be doing something right!.

Thanks for coming back in and I look forward to your next visit.

I enjoyed the food and the atmosphere after being in Beijing for several months it was a pleasant change with good service and fairly authentic food. I was most surprised to find American microbrews available, they also made a half decent Margarita!

I had lunch there last month and the fare was all good, people where nice, actually the only bad part was it was almost empty, but then I should expect that at 2:30 for lunch....

tasted like home to me!

Tim says Sundays at 8 a.m. will feature some NCAA football games this fall. So other than having a Brooklyn Ale or Rogue to kick off the day — possibly an Irish Car Bomb — there is no way one can pass up the beef brisket.

It takes some additional barbecue sauce to get the perfect taste, but this is a minor technicality. Tim's Texas BBQ is easily some of the best "mid-western" food in all of Beijing.

This might be the best Central Texas bbq you're going to get in this hemisphere. That said, it ain't no Kreutz's or even Cooper's, but there's plenty good enough to chaw off any irrational bbq cravings. The sides, aside from the potato salad, are nothing to write home about, with me seconding the aforementioned weak beans account. Real central Texans, though, care about sides about as much as a cow cares about kelp. Which begs the question of why the beef is dry. Perhaps Chinese cows just don't sport the marbling and fatty heft of their stateside cousins. Either way, I had to use a good bit of bbq sauce for my beef ribs and brisket, a big no-no. I gotta say though, their flavor and smoke is pretty durn good. Tim's a good guy, and his staff are eager to please. I didn't have trouble ordering in either English or Chinese. Did I order anything else besides bbq off the menu? Besides a Brooklyn IPA, which I'm grateful they carry, hell no, why bother? All in all, a kitschy, fun place with good beer, decent bbq, and nice people. Sound like it's worth going to?
