"A new-school place, Truth focuses on brisket. And the Brenham-based spot is undeniably popular—the line usually extends out the door at the Washington Ave joint. While the brisket is certainly moist, it lacks the flavor or smokiness that other BBQ joints have mastered. But not all of Truth’s dishes fall short—the smoked turkey is expertly seasoned and the smokiness of the baked beans makes us feel like true cowboys. The best way to enjoy Truth is to come early (before they sell out) with turkey in mind and a sweet tooth for a slice of massive carrot cake." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
