We came in late and ordered a bunch of bbq to go, it was great, brisket was moist and flavorful but not overly smokey. Sausage had a little bite but not over spicey. Boudin links were rich and smokey. The fried shrimp was fresh and simply amazing. We ordered way more than we could eat in one sitting, breakfast leftovers made prefect tacos!

A small country restaurant tucked away in a small community. If you blink, you will miss it, so stay alert and don't miss this hidden gem of a place! The food was some of the best I've ever had. The ribs were flavorful, juicy, and falling off the bone! The potato salad, Cole slaw, baked beans, and fried okra were delicious! We even had keylime pie before we left. The server was so friendly and charming. If ever we find ourselves back out this way, we will definitely stop and enjoy Miss Jean's Texas style ribs again! Thank you!
