  • Danny and his staff put on a clinic for 8 of us on what exceptional BBQ should taste like and what southern hospitality should feel like. The brisket lived up to the hype. The smoked turkey stole the show as it was so moist and flavorful. When picking up the turkey with my fork it should flopped over like a slice of juicy brisket. That said, don’t skip the homemade jalapeño sausage or the collards. Can’t wait to go back. Pro tip - load up on the brisket bon bons and take a bag of pork rinds to go.

  • As someone who doesn’t love most barbecue places. The brisket shoppe really stands out to me because they have true Texas BBQ. Their Brisket is the best in Florida. Don’t sleep on the turkey, it’s not a dry Turkey that lacks flavor like most bbq places. I also like that they have more then just bbq on the menu, their craft Cuban is the BEST Cuban I’ve ever had! All the staff was so kind and made my experience truly one of a kind.

  • Drove from St. Petersburg and was impressed with EVERYTHING! Plates are massive, meats are delicious, sides are perfect and they sell/make HOMEMADE banana pudding you can purchase to go! I would call before heading there because they do run out! They were out of burnt ends on a Saturday @1pm. Get there early! Outdoor seating is shaded, comfortable, and clean! Indoor seating and they have a HUGE wine selection! Definitely stop by they are WONDERFUL! Staff is great! They all were very polite, patient and professional! PS We ordered the two meat plate (brisket and pulled pork) with two sides! Prices and menu are on their website PSS They have these “brisket bon bons” that are rolls filled with brisket; glazed with cinnamon and butter! Really interesting but TASTY!!!

  • If God opened a restaurant, it would be this place. I walked in and was immediately greased (yes, greased) by an employee who kindly explained how to order, like a brisket angel guiding me to salvation. Sadly, I came for the brisket—but it was sold out by 3pm. Clearly, the chosen meat ascends early. So I pivoted to the burnt tips. Friends, that cow was sacrificed for a holy reason: tender, saucy, falling off the bone like it was auditioning for a food gospel. Bless that cow. Then came the tallow French fries—crispy, golden, and so good they made me question every potato I’ve ever met. The dirty rice? Divine. And the BonBons? My goodness. Bless the wheat farmer for the flour, bless the cow for the cream, and bless the chefs for turning it all into bite‑sized miracles. The shop itself is spotless, the staff are saints, and the food is nothing short of biblical. Highly recommend—just get there before 3pm if you want the brisket.

  • A Brisket Lover’s Dream! I can’t say enough good things about this place. The brisket is absolutely phenomenal — tender, juicy, and smoked to perfection. They make the best Cuban sandwich & their potato salad is outstanding. You can tell they take real pride in their craft. The staff is friendly, fun and the atmosphere has that laid-back, welcoming BBQ vibe. It's the kind of place where you instantly feel at home — and full. This spot is a must-try.

  • As a true BBQ connoisseur from Texas who’s eaten at over 39 of the top 50 spots across the Lone Star State, I can confidently say Brisket Shoppe in Tampa *holds its own*. The brisket was packed with flavor—perfectly smoked with a bark that rivals some of the best I've had back home. The mac and cheese was creamy, rich, and hit the spot as a solid side. Ordering was simple via the tablet kiosk at the entrance, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. The highlight? I got an impromptu tour of the smokers in the back from the pitmaster himself—clearly someone who takes pride in his craft. This place has earned a spot in my personal *top 10* BBQ joints nationwide. If you're in Tampa and craving real Texas-style barbecue, do yourself a favor and stop by. I’ll definitely be coming back.
