Hard Eight BBQ

About Us

Hard Eight BBQ is a true Texas-style, pit-smoked experience where guests are welcomed with the sights, smells, and flavor of authentic mesquite-fired barbecue. Known for its “back-yard cooking” approach, Hard Eight serves up brisket, sausage, ribs, turkey, chicken, and their famous pork chops straight from the pit to your plate. Guests order right at the pit, creating an interactive dining experience that showcases the heart of Texas hospitality. Rustic charm, generous portions, and bold flavors have made Hard Eight a go-to destination for families, food lovers, and visitors looking to experience real Texas barbecue.
Beyond the restaurant, Hard Eight BBQ offers extensive catering services designed to bring that same high-quality, mesquite-smoked flavor directly to your event. Catering options include full-service staffing, delivery, or convenient pick-up packages that work well for corporate lunches, weddings, community events, holiday gatherings, and celebrations of any size. Their team handles the details so hosts can focus on enjoying their guests.
Hard Eight also provides private event spaces at select locations, including The Colony, where groups can book indoor rooms, patios, or semi-private areas perfect for meetings, receptions, milestone events, and large group dining. With customizable menus, flexible setups, and the unmistakable atmosphere Hard Eight is known for, their private-event offerings make any gathering feel authentically Texan.
Whether dining in, catering a special occasion, or hosting a private event - Hard Eight BBQ delivers every time.
