I'm a delivery driver and I've just had my worst experience with them..they had me wait more than an hour after the agreed pickup time.. giving the same excuse that they were "putting it together now" I have to be in rush hour traffic wasting time, money and energy....ridiculous

Best bbq ever! Every time we come to Texas we make sure we stop at this location. Our go to meal is the 2 meat plate with moist brisket and sausage, creamed corn X2 as well as baked beans and a side of brussel sprouts. Lastly a side of burnt ends and big red to drink ?. It's usually enough for us to split. The line gets long so get there as soon as they open!*The brisket is sooo tender and juicy!

Absolutely amazing I have no complaints. I have been going since 2018. I have tried most of the menu and highly recommended beef rib, brisket, Mac and chicken, cream corn and lastly the bread pudding.

I asked for double ribs and put 1 on my plate. The rib dinner came with 2 ribs so the math was not mathing. The brisket was good. I am not a fan of the sausage. I've tasted better. The sides are good. Deviled eggs real good. Green very good.

I have tried different BBQ restaurants from coast to coast and Killens and now my favorite! The beef rib and brisket are perfectly smoked. The sides are excellent and the BBQ sauce is the best I've had in Texas! This will be my steady go to when it comes to BBQ! ?

Make sure to check your food at the take out window. I ordered a 3meat plate and was shorted a side. Food cost too much to just miss customers sides. Drove from humble to eat here

Tried to charge $18 for a baked potato (no meat) as a side... would have been cheaper to order a baked potato with barbecue in it. Manager couldnt handle the concept, just said thats how they priced...and...they serve "really big potatos"....Another thing their card machine had 20% tip minimum and was defaulted to 25%. They should call this place "Make a killen"...?

Killen's BBQ in Pearland, TX, is renowned for its high-quality ingredients and exceptional barbecue. Ronnie Killen, a Le Cordon Bleu-trained chef, ensures that the best cuts of meat are selected and prepared with care, aiming to enhance their natural flavors without overcomplicating them. The brisket, a crowd favorite, known for its juicy tenderness and flavorful bark, often compared to top-notch Texas BBQ joints was awesome! Service at Killen's is efficient and friendly, contributing to a satisfying dining experience. While the restaurant has received some mixed reviews, with a few guests noting a decline in quality, my experience confirms that Killen's BBQ offers a taste of authentic Texas barbecue that is both tasty and tender, often not requiring any additional sauce to enjoy!

Expensive, even for barbeque. Sausage was okay, sauces were not good, banana pudding was good (whipped cream style), and no free bread if you don't get a meal. Supposedly, their beef ribs and brisket are good and if I ever go again I'll try it, but I don't see that happening in the near future. For now, I'll just continue enjoying the place down the street.Update 2024-03-19: I've been back several times and the pulled pork and brisket are much better than the sausage. I don't know if the sauce has changed, but I do like the tangy sauce.
