Ah back to back BBQ updates. Like the other spot we have been fans of Armadillo Willy's BBQ for some time. Their loyalty program is top notch and the food usually is pretty good and the prices (for the area are not too bad). However back to back burger disasters (as outlined on the previous reviews) resulted in my hanging a two star on the this location and we took a break for a while. Recently we started coming back into the fold so to speak and after a few really good meals, we have decided that its time to place the 4 stars back on. First off the entire menu was revamped. Gone are the burgers (they were my fave but given the last few experiences, perhaps its for the best. Now there are twice the number of sides, a whole slew of Tacos, and yes some old favorites still make an appearance. In addition they continue to have quite an impressive draft beer game with constantly rotating taps. The Food: Brisket Tacos: OMG who doesn't like brisket? Who doesn't like tacos? No friends of mine for sure. Put those two together and you have something I could eat daily. The smokiness and richness of the brisket coupled with a chipotle crema are perfectly balanced by the salsa and the acidity of the pickled red onions. It is perfection on a tortilla. Turkey & Avocado Stack: (why yes I cut and pasted this one from the previous review) We love this one. The turkey is smoked and moist and its usually a very generous amount. The sourdough bread has just the right amount of butter on it and is grill/toasted to perfection. We skip the mayo as the avocado subs nicely for it. Served with those great pickled onions, its perfect. Tri Tip Sandwich: Tri tip can be a minefield. Its pretty temperamental and requires a patient hand when cooking otherwise I may was well put my Vans between two slices of bread. Its pretty clear that they took their time and did it right. I also threw caution to the wind and made it a deluxe which added Jack and cheddar cheese to it along with fresh jalapenos .The smokiness of the meat on bread with the cheese some onions is one of those simple pleasures in life. Its a very clean tasting sandwich and the peppers added just the right amount of heat. I skipped adding the salsa because the sandwich simply tasted awesome without it and I was afraid it would muddy up the clean flavors. Pig Sticks: This was a letdown and we were happy to have ordered a small appetizer portion. Notionally ribs, these did not work for us. For our taste they were way way overdone and crispy. That may have been what they were after, but If I want bone in pork jerky Ill ask for it. The Asian sauce was on the bland side an muted Hands down its great that they have regained their form

The only place I’ve found to have real Texas flavors since I left Texas! The brisket is pretty good, and you get a good bang for your buck if you ask for it fatty. And it’s right next to a German dessert place. What could be more Texan?

Thank you for supporting the Veterans here at the VA today. It's a tough time for everyone and your kidness does not go unnoticed. The pulled pork was my absolute favorite and the corn bread muffin was such a treat. Thank you. ❤

BBQ is one of my favorite foods. I personally BBQ at home and own a wood smoker pit that i get amazing results from. These guy's here at Willy's got it just right, smoked brisket sandwich with lite wood flavor was the first thing I tried and it didn't disappointe. I would highly recommend this place for BBQ fans.

This place was on the way out of town and what a good stop. Top of the line bbq in all aspects. Had four menu items, all were great. Quick counter service, watched the game on one of many big screens until they called.our order.
