Reid Family BBQ

Reid Family BBQ brings classic Central Texas barbecue to Waco, TX, with a family-run food trailer that keeps things simple: salt, pepper, smoke, and patience. What started as a backyard hobby has grown into a must-visit BBQ spot, where meats are smoked low and slow over post oak in an offset smoker named Green Gene. With a rotating setup a few times a month, locals know to arrive early—because once it’s gone, it’s gone.

The menu sticks to tradition, offering sliced prime brisket smoked for up to 18 hours, melt-in-your-mouth pulled pork, and boneless turkey breast that stays moist and packed with flavor. The Green’s Sausage Wrap, featuring a smoked link from Green’s Sausage House wrapped in a flour tortilla, is a local favorite, while the Pig Out Sandwich piles pulled pork and sausage into one irresistible bite. Sauce is available, but with barbecue this good, it’s not even necessary.

With no fluff or frills, just expertly smoked meats and family dedication, Reid Family BBQ serves up some of the best barbecue in Waco. Whether it’s a brisket sandwich or a loaded sausage wrap, every bite reflects the care and craftsmanship that make Texas barbecue legendary. Keep an eye on their schedule and don’t wait too long—once the smoker runs out, that’s it until next time.
