Milt's Pit Barbeque - Kyle

We enjoy exploring areas outside of Austin, and during our recent drive to downtown Kyle, we stumbled upon the BEST BBQ. From the moment we entered, the young lady at the cash register was incredibly friendly. My mother needed a bit of time to look over the menu, and she was very patient, even offering to help with any questions we had. That was really thoughtful! Everyone we encountered was nice! I ordered what was hands down the most delicious BBQ potato I've ever had, while my mother enjoyed a brisket plate with a rib. Every bite was delightful! We loved the food so much that we decided to take some brisket home with us. This is a fantastic local spot located in a charming downtown area. The food is amazing, and the service is EXCEPTIONAL. We will definitely keep returning to Milt's!

Upon entering, we were greeted by a delightful aroma of smoke that wasn't overwhelming—just the right amount to get us in the mood for BBQ. The menu features the usual lineup of meats: brisket, chicken, ribs, and sausage, along with sides like potato salad, beans, mac and cheese, and cheesy corn. The staff was friendly and attentive. I opted for the three-meat plate (whose name I can't recall), which included brisket, a sausage link, and two substantial pork ribs. I also tried the coleslaw and mac and cheese. The brisket was absolutely perfect—tender, moist, and seasoned exquisitely. The ribs practically fell off the bone while still maintaining a bit of chew. The sausage was Lockhart sausage, which isn't my favorite, but it was decent. The mac and cheese was good, though I personally think it could benefit from some jalapeños. The coleslaw was tasty. Maria had the smoked chicken, which was well-seasoned; the white meat was juicy, while the dark meat was a tad dry. She also enjoyed the potato salad, but found the beans a bit too sweet for her liking. Overall, I highly recommend Milt's for BBQ.

I hate to say it, but the brisket and turkey were dry, and while the sausage had great flavor, it was mealy. However, the scalloped potatoes were excellent. I really love the location and hope this was just a one-time bad experience, so I will definitely try again.

Located in downtown Kyle. Service very good, bbq delicious. Really can't tell what a FABULOUS bbq is. My choice of meat was kinda dry, but the sausage was delicious. Its an authentic feel, id go back fir sure

I'm surprised this place has as many good reviews as it does. Maybe we caught them on an off day? The brisket was dry AF, the pork was marginally edible and everything was cold. Like, had they prepared this food two days ago? It did not taste fresh. Credit where credit is due, the staff was super sweet and the cornbread fritters were the bomb; we ordered a second serving. But seriously some of the worst bbq we have ever had. Stay away. Except for the fritters.
