A hidden red building gem among the tall buildings. The smoky bbq fills the air around the area to make your mouth water. !Baileys special. A well valued special. A brisket or pulled pork sandwich with 2 sides and a drink. !baked potato. Big ol potato with 1/2 lb of meat. Can’t beat. Brisket elote. The brisket was on point. The cilantro, hot sauce and queso fresco really pulled the meal together. The corn itself was okay but everything else elevated the dish Fyi. Very small dining area. You may wait slightly because of the line but they are quick. Cash discounts

Had to be my favourite meal during my stay in Fort Worth, I started off with a brisket sandwich and slaw, had some of the spicy BBQ sauce and pickles (which they have in abundance). That first round was so good I stayed and had some of the pork ribs and their Mac and cheese. Honestly phenomenal food, fab service and recommendations from the team there! A must visit if you're in the area!

Classic joynt with an excellent brisket. The Monday special is awesome. My recommendation, stick with the regular BBQ sauce and add on jalapenos.

Their brisket elite is delicious, every time I’m in town. I’ll stop by and pick one up.

I walked out of the Government building across the street and could smell the smoke. I had no idea they were there (not from the area) and walked in to check it out. I picked up 7 sandwiches (one of each) for the guys at work that was probably on of the best moves i could make. The BBQ was awsome, with a healthy dose of smoke while not being "over smoked". The turkey was still juicy and not at all dry and the sausage sandwiches were excellent. I selected the sliced brisket over the chopped, and it was also excellent. Over all a great BBQ joint.

Fort Worth Barbecue Company stands out as a smoky sanctuary in the heart of Fort Worth, Texas. Tucked away at 826 Taylor St, this modest red building breathes authentic Texas barbecue with a rustic charm that pulls you in the moment you approach. From the first whiff of their smoked meats, it’s clear the pitmasters here take their craft seriously.

Their brisket is a highlight—tender, juicy, and rich with smoke, perfectly balanced in every bite. The Brisket Elote showcases their skill in elevating traditional barbecue with a clever blend of cilantro, hot sauce, and queso fresco, marrying smoky and fresh flavors with subtle heat. The Baileys Special, a generous combo of brisket or pulled pork sandwich accompanied by two sides and a drink, delivers excellent value without compromising on quality. The baked potato loaded with half a pound of meat is a satisfying, hearty choice that leaves a lasting impression.

Sides like the creamy mac and cheese and tangy slaw add perfect contrasts that complement the robust meats. The abundance of house-made pickles and a spicy BBQ sauce offer punchy accents to each plate, highlighting the kitchen’s attention to detail and flavor balance. The friendly and attentive staff enhance the experience, making this small dining space feel warm and convivial despite its size.

Though the venue is intimate and lines may form during peak hours, the efficiency and quick service keep the wait manageable. Discounts for cash payments and occasional perks like free beer on Fridays add a local charm that’s hard to beat. Fort Worth Barbecue Company is a must-visit for anyone seeking genuine Texas barbecue: straightforward, hearty, and deeply satisfying.
