Reviews for The Sticks BBQ Etc in Brownwood, TX
Food and staff was amazing. A little pricey but completely worth it.
Previously eaten here many many times, last year the food wasn't so bad, this year, every time we are here, it wasn't good. This... is a summary of our experience: Seen the reviews about the brisket, so we got a chopped BBQ sandwich and a sausage wrap, bothwith side of beans. The BBQ in the sandwich feels like someone dumbed chopped brisket into a vat of sauce. Sauce is all youtaste in the sandwich. Sausage was alright, but pretty dry. Beans were hard. They weren't bland, but last year they weren'thard. They need to soak them more. Earlier got a baked potato with chopped brisket and condiments. Main gripe was the potato.It was really dry and by the time you "dress" it out, it was cold. Had to pour a lot of bbq sauce just so it wouldn't be sodry. Last year and years before this was a really good place to eat. This year, something went downhill and every time we eathere, it's always disappointing experience. Read more

Amazing food and great service!! Would definitely recommend
Terrible, worst brisket on earth. Pic tells the story. Old,dry and reheated in the microwave. I would close before I served this... to anyone. Sad thing is, this was the third time in a month I tried it to see if it was a fluke?it?s not?.just bad brisket. Thesaving grace was the rib. It was pretty good. Hot,fresh,juicy,tender and tasty like it should be. Sides were ok but they aredefinitely stingy with the onions and pickles. Two stars was strictly for the rib, without it a definitive 1 star.

Making a road trip back home decided to stop in town for some barbecue. Absolutely no waiting. Nobody else was in the... restaurant. Very friendly staff a wide assortment on the menu. I had a brisket and sausage plate with beans and fries. Friend ofmine had a Patty melt. He said it was very good. My sausage was good beans were good brisket maybe a little dry but not too bad.Barbecue sauce that was in the bottle was not too spicy but not too mild had just enough kick to make it interesting. What Irecommend this location? Yes I would be sure to stop in you won't be disappointed. Read more

Place used to be pretty good but quality of the bbq has gone way down hill, decided to give them another try 10/5/2022 and... regretted it as soon as I opened the to go box. Got the 2 meat with brisket and sausage. Brisket was almost jerky, really dryand stiff, sausage had an off texture to it like a soft feeling, hard to explain but definitely not how sausage should taste.Asked for it smothered in bbq and got it dry with cup of bbq. Back in 2012 are here all the time and loved it but never againwill I waste my money here Read more
