When doing the Platter Post for the Texas Monthly Top 50 I started to see exceptional desserts show up again and again at so many places. It got to the point that I knew that I would have to do a post focusing solely on desserts after I completed it.
Below are up to 3 desserts from the Top 50 BBQ Spots in Texas along with photo credit mentions if I had them. Note that some places at ZERO photos of desserts online (or possibly just one). So if you are a BBQ joint that is missing and have photos, please send them over and I’ll update.
Hopefully, these photos will sweeten your interest (that was bad) to visit these spots as you head out on BBQ tours this summer and fall. Also, if your heart is set on a specific dessert, please do check their website and/or social media as a specific dessert may be a one-week or two-week special and could not appear for months.
