Faith, Family & Barbecue
Owners Phillip and Yvette Helberg are passionate about what they do and love being able to share it with others. Phillip, a Texas native, and Yvette began by cooking for themselves and with lots of hard work, faith and a supportive community, they opened their trailer in late spring of 2018. A fan following grew, they were named to Texas Monthly’s Top 25 New Barbecue Joints in 2019, and now they find themselves busy at their more permanent location on Highway 6 — all while their 22 month old son joins in when he can. They attribute their success to a variety of factors, but one thing stands out for Phillip. “I think we just try to keep it simple,” he said. Adding that they just “try to be good people, serve good food and build good relationships.” Their guiding bible verse, 1 Peter 4:10, serves as their model: “As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace.”
