The bread was soft:) not soggy at ALL.We will definitely be returning to get the ribs next time!! The price is great for students as well☺️ Very friendly as well! Hope to visit again💐

Thank you Hillard BBQ! I work at Southern Careers Institute and we had a "Feed the Students Campaign" today and Hillard catered it was wonderful would definitely use them again the potato salad tasted just like homemade does and the chicken was so tender that it fell off the bone. Great job guys and again thank you! Happy THanksgiving to All.

Incredible food, Incredible service! We were lucky enough in our travels to be suggested this gem! Beautiful family that owns this spot and I am so excited for their future successes! We will be planning future trips from Idaho to eat this amazing BBQ!

wow! the three meat special (chicken, ribs & sausage) was beyond delicious. the potato salad and cabbage is also so good. get whatever dessert is being served. you won’t be disappointed

Hillard’s BBQ is truly food for the soul. Best brisket in Texas. Fall off the bone ribs. Unforgettable fried cabbage. I can’t stress this enough: Do not come to Waco or drive thru this wholesome city without stopping here for your blessing. Delicious!

Southern Careers Institute used Hillard BBQ as a caterer for our Thanksgiving Feed the Students Campaign this year and boyyyyyy was it fantastic! The smell alone had all of us buzzing around the table hoping there would be left overs after ensuring the students were filled up…once we got a taste of that Potato Salad and the meats, it was all over. We made sure nothing was left! So delicious, professional, and affordable, huge fan!!!

The ribs, chicken, and potatoes salad was my choice and it was great! I will make it one of my food stops.

Amazing BBQ!! Thanking for supporting our student at Southern Careers Institute here in Waco. The food and customer service was wonderful!

We were on our way from San Antonio to Fort Worth and in the mood for BBQ for lunch. Looked up on Google Maps a place for good BBQ on our route. We originally thought we’d stop at Buc-ee’s for a quick sandwich, so glad we decided to try somewhere else. We ordered the two meat plates each. Both of us got the ribs and one got the brisket and the other got the sausage. Side orders were the beans, potato salad and cooked cabbage. All three sides were over the top delicious. The meat was smoked excellent. Love when the meat falls off the bone. The BBQ sauce was phenomenal. Nabota “Bot” Hilliard & Drea we’re the most pleasant folks and helped us with our decisions to satisfy our taste. Highly recommend Hillard BBQ. It was the best choice we could’ve made.

Exceptional experience! Stopped by on a road trip from Houston and ordered chopped brisket, ribs, and sausage. The level of smoke flavor is perfect. Wonderful bonus - the owners are super friendly!

Super yummy BBQ!! Friendly owners. They also have Oreo chicken waffle. Gotta try it next time.

Man, some great BBQ and the staff was super friendly. I will definitely be stopping in again next time I am down from North Texas!

10/10 Had the two meat plate with Brisket & chicken Side of chili beans and potato salad. This is by far on of the best BBQ spots I have tried.

Top notch BBQ and service. One of the best if not the best I have had. I have had lots of BBQ.
