Look at that rib! So meaty! That's one of the best items at Mikeska's Bar-B-Que. If you know me, you would be surprised to find out what I liked the best.
Jerry's place has been in business in Columbus since 1956 and on the I-10 location since 1987. Mikeska's is located off I-10 west of Houston and east of San Antonio. Take Exit 699. It's on the north side of the road.
Brisket:
Lean with just enough fat for flavor. This is good stuff.
Smoked Sausage:
I like the sausage. Not greasy. Many barbecue places have great meats except for the sausage. This place has exceptional sausage as well.
Baby-Back Ribs:
Love their ribs. Lean, meaty, and a great smoked taste. Having great ribs in Texas is almost an entitlement. And Jerry's ribs are up to the challenge. See the one at the front of this post! I always get a plate of whatever for the restaurant and a rack of ribs for home. That way the Mikeska adventure continues.
Sandwiches:
Above is a chopped beef sandwich with their great barbecue sauce. To the right is their sliced beef sandwich. Look at all the slices. Either one of these is a good pick-up for a road trip.
