    The HEB Catering Team is the best - bar none. They really deliver a great product and service! We had a Nacho Bar for our special Birthday Bash/ Red River Rivalry FB game and everything was perfect! Adding brisket to the Nacho Bar offering was the way to go, along with some delicious and varied fruit and cheese trays. I want to thank Lisa L. for her guidance in menu selection, as well as Melanie, for their professionalism, prompt delivery and a no-worry setup. And thanks for more than enough ice!! LOL! - Deb

    People in Texas say their BBQ is the best! Visiting Texas this week - we found the absolute best BBQ at True Texas BBQ HEB. What an incredible BBQ feast! The burnt ends, ribs, and pulled pork were smoky, juicy, and cooked to perfection — absolutely packed with flavor. Thank you to all! We loved your sides also!!

    Excellent tasting experience! Loved the burnt ends, ribs, and pulled pork — all perfectly smoked and full of flavor. The smoked turkey is my daughter’s favorite. Best sides include the new mac and cheese and the greens! Pro tip: eat the cobbler first while it’s hot — you won’t regret it!

    HEB BBQ rivals any of the famous ones in town! So tasty, but without the crazy lines or prices of the trending sites. Friendly folks, delicious food.

    This Regular Pulled Pork Sandwich and Nachos was flavourful, tasty and very filling. The service was great, employees were very sweet and helpful. Food came out fast and price was reasonable.
