Fantastic BBQ! Brisket stuffed baked potato was extraordinary! And their roast chicken was GREAT! And am ordering a bone in ham for Thanksgiving. They also have full Thanksgiving meals with smoked or fried turkey. ADDED: Had to try the Root Beer Float and Banana Pudding Cake.... EXCELLENT. Tastes like homemade whipped cream to me! Worth the extra and definitely big enough to share!

There are not very many places we love everything but here we did ! Service was awesome. The food was delicious You have to stop by here! Best fried orka! Get the 3 meat plates and try it all. My favorite was the chicken, but it was all extremely good! Sweat tea is a must-have!!! The sweetest lady works up there

Some of the best BBQ I’ve tasted. Service is remarkable, food excellent. "I'm still reeling from the incredible BBQ experience I had at Just Passing Thru! The moment I took a bite of their slow-cooked ribs, I knew I was in for a treat. The meat literally fell off the bone, melting in my mouth with a tender, juicy texture that was simply divine. The flavors were rich and deep, with a perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and smoky notes. I could taste the care and attention that went into crafting each dish, from the tender, velvety brisket. But what truly sets Just Passing Thru apart is the quality of their meats. Each bite was a masterclass in texture and flavor. Whether you're a BBQ aficionado or just looking for a delicious meal, this place is an absolute must-visit. Rating: 5/5 stars Recommended for: BBQ enthusiasts, meat lovers, anyone looking for a delicious, satisfying meal"

I absolutely love this resturaunt. The ribs were amazing, the smoke ring practically consumed each rib to the bone- yet remaining tender. I picked up a Rib and it fell apart in my hands it was so well smoked. Flavors were amazing. The chopped brisket put me at a loss for words. The Owner is incredibly kind and friendly and the atmosphere is homely. This is one of the best BBQ places I've been too

Man I have lived in Huffman for 4 years and haven’t tried this place until tonight! And man have I been missing out. The ribs fell right off the bone and were juicy, the brisket was off the chain and don’t even get me started on the chicken! But when I tell you I tried the banana pudding cake my fat ass died and went to heaven! This is so dangerously good hands down the best dessert I have ever had! I will definitely be going back! The workers were awesome and very pleasant to deal with!

Barely got a picture of the food before my kid devoured the brisket The staff were friendly and the weather today was perfect for sitting outside. Their homemade cheesecake was delicious too.

Small friendly feeling with BIG TASTE! Oh my god was this BBQ absolutely delicious! My favorite by far were the ribs. If you love BBQ then you definitely need to try this place! I was so taken with how good it was that I felt compelled to call and compliment them! Sorry I didn’t take pictures, I was in a food trance while eating.
