Texas food experience needed!

Audra was AMAZING to work with, she was very responsive to messages and is very accommodating. We wanted the "Texas experience" for my family from the north and we got exactly that. Everyone loved the food, even people who aren't huge BBQ fans. It was all delicious and the staff on the wedding day were very professional and friendly. Would recommend them to anybody and to just go have a meal there :-)

The best brisket we've ever had!

We had our wedding at the creek haus and actually only went to one caterer to check out before committing and that was rail road BBQ. We left with full stomachs and excitement to share some authentic texas BBQ with our friends and family for our wedding.

Everything day of was seamless and easy. I did not have to worry for one second! Leading up, Audra was so easy to work with and answered every question or concern promptly -- even when we asked the same question 3 times.

We have had so many compliments on how great the bbq was from all of our guests!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Star Hill Ranch Star Hill Ranch Barn & Farm Weddings

Star Hill Ranch highly recommends Railroad Bar-B-Que. The staff are professional and courteous and their food is fantastic. In addition to consistently providing our clients with delicious BBQ choices - moist and expertly flavored brisket, chicken, sausage, etc., Railroad prepares very tasty and creative sides, including a mac & cheese dish with bacon that will bring tears of joy to your eyes. At one wedding, the owner, Gerald, prepared a baked fish entree for those less inclined to BBQ, and as a person that doesn't normally eat fish, I went back for seconds. Railroad is great at making, presenting and serving their core product, but are able to provide out-of-the-box solutions to meet the needs and tastes of everyone! 5 stars!
