Angelo's Barbecue

Angelo's Barbecue Review

A Fort Worth institution since 1958, Angelo's is famous for succulent smoked ribs, so tender that the meat falls off the bone, and for the stuffed bear that guards the front door. The small parking lot, filled with minivans, European sedans, pickup trucks and motorcycles, reflects the diverse customer base that returns for those ribs, schooners of beer, traditional sides (mustard potato salad, Western-style beans, cole slaw), and other meats, including turkey, sliced or chopped beef, and sausage. Arrive early, as they've been known to run out of ribs well before closing.
