407 BBQ

Nice get together today! Thanks Brian! Good to put faces with names.

Jealous........

Yep, good time and great BBQ.

Thanks again for coming out fellas. Always a good time with TFF / THF members in the house.

Will check it out next time I visit my daughter in Argyle

I picked up two pork butts there yesterday.....the eaten' kind. Had to sample some last night.....amazing as always. Bryan knows what the heck he is doing. Nice crowd out there yesterday as well.

Thats on my way home everyday from work. ill have to stop in and grab some food soon

Wish there was one in north dallas.

Y'all open tomorrow?

yes sir 11-7

You made it to yelp. 1 5 star review. Good way to get the word out. I think lots of folks look at yelp.

Thanks a bunch for your PM invitation.

I didn't PM you, but would love for you to stop by sometime if you're in the area.

priceless

I PM'd him and it's not the first or last time I'm going to offer to be his chauffeur in the DFW area.

I had a piece of gristle in East Barnard yesterday that they passed out a sliced brisket. It was a late lunch and I was hungry. I had to swallow bits of it whole.

Bill are you okay This to shall pass hopefully soon

Ill have to stop by, live 2 miles west on 407.

I'll have to check them out!

Normally we're closed on Monday's, however the cold spell kept us closed Friday & Saturday last week, so we're opening up today.

Great meeting yall, some dang good bbq!

It's called the "Boss Hawg"

Lightly sauced pulled pork, then caramelized on a flat grill. Served on top of grilled jalapenos, with a layer of melted cheddar cheese on top. Capped off with a toasted bun, and a layer of sriracha mustard. This one is a beast.

Also includes an EKG test afterward

Would

hory sheet

Brought one home last night for the wife. She left me a small piece that I finished for lunch. It was dang good.

I did...and it was amazing.....

Did you come by today?

That would set my diet back six weeks, but looks great.

No Sir....I've been flat on my back for a week....I had the turkey when we met you.....I bet the pork is as good as the turkey was....simply incredible!

That looks freakin' incredible.

I gained 4lbs just by making one

It's cabled Vincent's. We always stop there when we hunt in that area. I explained to the slices what I had gotten last week. Today it was as good as any I've ever had and I live halfway between two three star BBQ joints. I complimented the kitchen after I finished.

what bun are you using ?

Sheila Partin sweet sourdough bun.

i finally stopped by on Friday after work. I got a pound of briskit(some of the best ive had ever!), a pound of turkey, and a half pound of pork. Along with some sides. it was pretty dang good.

served 1.

I was there on Friday, did we meet? The 80's were really tough on me, so things do get a little fuzzy these days, but I don't recall meeting you. If we didn't, you should have spoken up - TFF/THF'rs get a 10% discount. Hey it's not like it's free, but it's something.

BTW - glad you enjoyed the grub.

It's time for us to grow a little. After 3 months open, it's more than clear to us that we need a building, so here we go. It's a 16' x 40' cabin, and should be finished by Wednesday. No more standing in the cold rain to order BBQ

Who says we can't have the next TFF/THF G2G here...it's BYOB.

When is it going to be ready??

Should be done by Wednesday. Cabin is custom built, but it's a complete package from the factory. They are moving pretty fast with the flooring already.

That is awesome Tman

we did i believe, next time i come by i will say something

Nice! I'll be by tomorrow for mine. Was gonna swing out that way anyways to help you supervise the new build.

Just the builders there tomorrow, we'll be at the kitchen. Have 150lb pork and 160lb brisket on the pit tonight. We'll be back open on Thursday

Even though it was a little out of my way I ate their once and man it was good I am definitely making another trip for the Boss Hog

As I mentioned on another thread, I had the pleasure of meeting these 3 hoodlums; Moe, Larry & Curly Okay its Billy on the left Big Dog Bryan in the middle and the Cousin David on the right.

Went by today after the gun range and I'll go back for sure. The new little building is pretty cool

Need building update.....

As always, great BBQ and the new building is great!

Great seeing you again yesterday. Thanks for stopping by!!

Can't wait to stop by.

That building setup looks great Brian....can't wait to getup there and check it out!

Any word on the BYOB.....i.e., buy beer in the store and consume with your BBQ?

BYOB has always been allowed.

Stopped in today will have something up on my blog soon.

I'll be visiting my son in Argyle in March. Looking forward to sinking my teeth into some great looking meals.

Sent my daughter and niece up a couple days ago to bring home some BBQ. As they finished the order my niece pipes up and says "don't forget the banana pudding for Dave". At that point Bryan immediately knows its my order, tells them to tell me Hi for him and gives them a THF discount. SPOOKY. The man sure knows his customer base...

You're my Norm from Cheers

....and that's not a bad thing....if he called you Cliff Clavin I'd be worried....

Dang that Boss Hog looks like heaven on a bun!

Wow. Just wow. If there was ever a question how it should look, this is the answer. I have to try the 407 BBQ someday.

I stopped on the way home from Ft Worth and got a pound of moist brisket to go. I've been several times now and it's always great.

Surprise visit from Bud Kennedy today. Had a lot of great things to say, and even wrote a few down.

That is awesome Tman

Very nice! The brisket in his photo looks fantastic!

X2....great write up....looks like you are going to be brick and mortar sooner than later....

Congrats Brian!

Texas Monthly just posted the article to their BBQ News section too!


http://www.tmbbq.com/bbq-news-0210-0216/

Ditto

Finally made it by there with my brother today. AWESOME BBQ and some of the best beans I have EVER had, seriously. He brought out some pretty dang good banana pudding for my niece. I'll go again for sure!

That looks awesome.

BTW... this was before we realized it was BYOB... we quickly walked across the parking lot for a 6 pack to wash it down with!

Good stuff! Stopped by today for lunch and a visit. Food was GREAT! Really enjoyed my visit. Thanks,Bryan!

Gonna have to find an excuse to get over there soon

Here is your excuse, now get on down there

I will be there today between 12:30 and 1:00 for one of these bad boys

Holy S that looks really good!

Think I just clogged an artery looking at that, but what a way to go! We will be out to see you sometime this spring. That looks beyond delicious.

Had several from TFF / THF come by today. Always great seeing new faces.

Sure do wish you were down here. Will definitely stop by if im ever up near you.

Had a nice little review from the Friday Foodie gang in Flower Mound. Well at least we enjoyed reading it

Friday Foodie

Awesome Tman Keep doing what your doing. It is working

Congrats Brian!

Nice little review from the Dallas Observer.

407 BBQ

Kick Azz

Good job Bryan! Like the gunny said when I asked if I passed my FCC exam. 'Was there ever any doubt?'.

i'm definitely stopping in when i'm in your area!

I'll trade 407 Q for dewberries.

Bring some mud bugs too

Another great review Bryan! Though it does sound like you need an interior decorator Looking forward to loading up a truck load of delicious sandwiches for my clay shoot next week

Awesome! Wish I could do what I love for a living. Good stuff.

If I know you'll be there, I'll be paying for it.

Miss Melissa and Miss Audrey are here to serve you daily

i'll call you when i'm up that way! you dont happen to know a guy with a old gun rack up there for me do you? lol

went back up here on this week and as always i was not disappointed.
I got the two meat with brisket and jalepeno sausage with mac n cheese and beans.
im a big guy and i had enough for two meals out of it.

hats off sir!

Be careful what you wish for. Bryan is the hardest working dude I know. Don't know how he does it.

Bryan thought retirement was going to be relaxing hahaha.

Things are about to get a little easier....and we're about to grow again.

Which direction

We will be expanding. I'm building a commercial kitchen on the vacant lot to the west of our building. Once it's up and tagged by the State, I will move my existing building over there and join it to the kitchen. From that point on, we will no longer be in the trailer, we will be in a regular kitchen.

That's great Sir!

filed for liquor permit? Or BYOB?

BYOB

Congrats Tman That is outstanding news. I love it

Another good article on 407BBQ . Bryans building quite a following

Got an email from the food editor from The Dallas Morning News yesterday. She wants to sit down and meet on Monday to write about us. Have no idea what I've done to be the benefactor of such great press. Pretty humbling to say the least.

Attaboy Bryan. I knew you back when.

@Tritonman do you have any plans to sell seasonings or merch? the rub you put on your brisket and turkey is out of this world. id buy it by the bucket

[b][/b]We just got our first shipment of T-shirts to sell in yesterday. Size med-xxl (got 2 xxxl, but those are mine). They're $20 and $22 for xxl-xxxl.

I hand make the rub, and do sell it, but right now we're using it as fast as I can make it. Due to the number of different pepper styles in it, it costs me a little over $6lb just to make. I sell it to folks on the TFF a lot at $10lb. Let me know if you want a sack and I'll get some packaged up. It'll have to be some time next week though, we're running big loads of meat this weekend and I'm getting very low myself.

LONG SLEEVE??????

No sir, short sleeve for now

@Tritonman perfect. I'll take some, you are on my way home from work so I'll just stop in on thursday to grab some

No prob. Please pm me on Wednesday or my tiny brain will get busy and forget

No offense, but do you use liquid smoke in you brisket, pulled pork, or sauce?

Uhhh no

WTF Kinda question is that? Damn Son!! We in Texas and Bill Oxner ain't cooking.

Love you Pig.

Oh Snap

That question was, well it just ain't right

Now you got me wondering about frijoles???

Some places do, and some people are extremely sensitive to it.

For the record, I don't want a discount! I do want a longsleeve T-shirt though!!

Just in time for summer? Soon....coming soon

Yes, shop I work in is hot. Even in August once the sun goes down if there's even a slight breeze.... I'm cold.

I was in the area last week and finally got a chance to stop by and try this place. I thought it was fantastic. I ordered the 2 meat plate and added a 1/2 pound of ribs and was impressed with the portion size (I had to get a take home box when I was done). The brisket had an amazing bark and was extremely flavorful. The ribs were perfectly seasoned and some of the best I have had in recent memory. The sausage, beans, and smoked corn were not slouches either. You have a good thing going Tritonman and I will certainly be back next time I'm in the area!

I went last weekend and took the wife. Bryan was busy so I did not mess with him but I had a two meat with turkey and sausage. She had a one meat turkey plate and we had leftovers for the rest of the weekend. It was outstanding

I'm gonna have to stop bragging on his BBQ. Went last night for my weekly dinner run and the line was to,the door. But Bryans staff works very fast and the wait wasn't bad at all. Of course the pulled pork was excellent as always.

this is gonna turn into a real restaurant soon.

Faster than Brian is ready for.....Good for him......

He moved into his new commercial kitchen and dining area last week

From what I'm hearing you're gonna have to add more dining space.....glad things are going well for you Sir. We need to get back up there soon and check out the new digs.....

Got to make it back out there soon!

Brian

I just clicked on your 407 icon and followed you on Facebook. In the comment section I bragged about how good your food is and generous portions at a fair price. How good looking the girlies are working up there. Started to say something about the owners looks but I didn't want to scare the customers off

Trying to get a buddy of mine to go to lunch today, if he agrees we will be there

Got the ramp and stairs up yet?

I heard em talkin about you on 95.9 the other morning. Cant beat that!

Dang Brian, sure has changed since I was there last. I need to come out on my Way to Cinnamon Creek Archery

We went, yesterday evening.

Gotta be the best ever BBQ plate I ever had. I had the Boss Hog with cole slaw, she had sliced brisket, beans and potato salad. We took a large container home, which included 1/2 of the sandwich. Everything had a great, balanced flavor. The three sides were all very good. You can tell they pay attention to everything they cook when all the sides are as good as these. The brisket had a great ring, good bark, just moist enough with a smoke flavor straight off my deer lease. Banana Pudding was creamy, with solid flavor.

Like any Texan, I've had brisket from 100 different places. The brisket is a dead heat with one of the famous places, but when you judge the whole plate it ain't close. 407 BBQ looks back at the rest.

Haven't had banana pudding in a long time. Love it.

This weekend will be my last chance at 407 since my inlaws are leaving Lewisville. I hope I can work it out.

Brian has it going on.....some of the best "Q" I've ever had.....

I had the Boss turkey sandwich last time it was there....made three meals out of that monster.....amazing good grub!

I have been thinking about buying a gun from someone on here over in Decatur and then stopping there on the way back.

Well worth the trip even if you don't buy the gun....my last trip we left the Austin area and stopped by on the way home....we live in Fairfield....it was like a 400 mile detour......

I need to start a 407 delivery service.

You interested in making a run down to Fairfield.....I have a spare bedroom if necessary.....

I'm coming through Thursday morning/mid day bringing a load of 407 food to mama's wake. I pick up fresh food that morning and head to Huntsville. Lets hook up via PM and get it done.

PM incoming ...

Here now brisket, sausage, and potato salad were good. I'm taking the sausage home so I have room for banana pudding. Didn't try the sauce as the brisket didn't need it.

I guess I must have missed you. I've been busy in the back of the kitchen all morning. Thanks for stopping by, and glad you enjoyed.

I think we spoke briefly, my wife and I were sitting at the booth going out to the patio and you asked how everything was. I apologize if it sounded like the review of the brisket wasn't good it was anything but that. I think it had a good bark, was real tender I really wished I would have gotten double the brisket. Really nice place.
