I'm a chef in fort worth and I smoked ribs and briskets for use in a few of our specials. Jalen actually came in wearing a Goldees shirt and I asked if he worked there and he said " bro I'm one of the owners" we had a laugh about and I asked him for help on my Meats. He was so humble and we chatted for about 20-25 minutes and we only talked BBQ. Afterwards my briskets improved alot. Really cool guy to talk to. It's not everyday that a BBQ master walks into your restaurant and helps get your BBQ game on point! Thank you Jalen!

Stopped by Goldees in December while in FW for a graduation. Their brisket is perfect, much like most of the places that serve Franklin-style briskets. But their sides and pork belly are INSANE. So good. And the guys are so nice. They actually chat with you for a bit. Will stop by every time I'm in town.

@@squalie9 There are two main methods of smoking brisket in Texas and many applications. Franklins is the low and slow method (225-275, 10-12 hours, wrap or no wrap)- what Goldees and a lot of places do. There's also hot and fast (up to 350, wrap in foil with liquid, maybe 5-6 hours). I've been to places that serve hot and fast. Not for me. Then there are different ways to get bark. Franklin Style uses 16 mesh black pepper that helps form the bark. Places like Terry Blacks don't use a heavy pepper coating but lets the meat and smoke do its thing to create the bark. So when I say Franklin Style, I mean exactly the way Goldees, Franklins, La Barbecue, Truth, Killen's, Leroy & Lewis, etc does it. Their briskets taste almost the same with variations on seasoning.

The jalepeno cheese sausage was ok. The total was $122. I did bring some food home which will feed me for a couple days. Maybe i caught them on a bad day. I could name about 5 other DFW BBQ places which are better especially Cattleacks, Terry Blacks, and 10-50.

If you're interested in Goldee's, I suggest watching "Day in the life of the #1 bbq in texas" on KZread by Alvin Zhou. Very well made behind-the-scenes type of video like this. Great filmography, editing and production.

I watch a lot of smoking, barbecue, grill and general meat content and I can say I have never seen an assortment of ribs that looked as beautiful, glossy, colorful, shiny and you can tell it was a firm yet tender bite that has just that right amount of snap to it. I remember the years when the whole thing was "oh you want fall off the bone", I was always like "nah, that means you overcooked that mess and now it's a pile of meat shavings that you like to call 'pulled' like how the hell are you gonna make meat that's wet AF yet still taste dry as hell? How that work?" Now this stuff here from Ribeees? Looks like perfection. Beautiful visually.

Their 2nd-ish location, Ribbee's, is very good as well. $20 set rib meal. Good value.

incredible video and makes me salivating with the last plate shots props!

I just ate at Goldees for the first time last week. What I really liked about what they are doing is they have a completely different flavor profile for every protein in their restaurant. A lot of restaurants use the exact same seasoning and flavor profile for all of their meats and it gets boring really fast. Every bite of every thing I bought (wife and I tried a little of everything) and it was fantastic. Also, their bread was awesome! It wasn't just loaf bread from the store but just like in the video homemade bread worth every bite.

These guys have mastered their craft, and at the same time have the business acumen. Hugely impressive lads and good mates that went on the journey together - so chuffed to see them doing well

Jonny looks like Badger from Breaking Bad 😂😂😂

they are really using their momentum to expand their brand. Smart move in terms of business. I hope they stay friends when there is more money involved...

Those guys are genuine.

What a fantastic trio of friends making some of the best BBQ on the planet.

My mouth was watering just lookin at it

The blend of traditional techniques with unique dishes showcases a perfect balance of respecting roots while embracing diversity in flavors. 🍖

All this looks amazing

absolutely crazy they had everything ready to scale up that fast. from the money, to supplier connections, to smokers, to staff, to knowledge. it aint easy!!! looks like worthy of a trip to texas for that alone tho

gotta love Matt Osten's is this good theme song in the background!

I've been a Traeger+ user for years but made the switch to Asmoke recently and I couldn't be happier! The precise temperature control of the Asmoke grill has been a game changer for me. I love the smoky flavor added to the food by the wood pellets and the convenience of automated temperature control and pellet feeding. The ASCA™ technology ensures efficient cooking and the FlameTech patent is a big upgrade in temperature control. Plus, the portability means I can take it on our family outings. Switching to Asmoke has truly enhanced my grilling experience. And the best part? It's environmentally friendly too! #Asmoke
