Chef Ronnie Killen, best known for his icehouse-turned-fine-dining-restaurant Killen’s Steakhouse, opened Killen’s Barbecue in Pearland in February 2014.

The much-anticipated Killen’s Barbecue experience is very Central Texas-like, with barbecue served cafeteria-style on freezer paper and cut to order. Meats are sold by the pound or as one-, two-, or three-meat plates, and  include Killen’s much-buzzed-about award-winning beef ribs, along with smoked pork ribs, salt-and-pepper rubbed briskets and pork and beef links, made with high quality USDA brisket and pork loin (no fillers), garlic, salt and pepper.

Alongside the meats, Killen’s serves a mustard-based potato salad, spicy pulled pork pinto beans and ramen coleslaw, all which can also be ordered by the quart, as well as housemade spicy bread-and-butter pickles, pickled jalapenos and onions. Desserts include Killen’s creamy old-fashioned banana pudding with vanilla wafers, pecan pie with a touch of Mrs. Butterworth’s syrup, his legendary crème brûlée bread pudding, as well as seasonal cobblers.
