What People Are Saying About Buster's Texas-Style Barbecue

In Short – From the wooden restroom signposts to booths sporting cowboys-and-Indians upholstery--it's all about the Old West here. Eats are served cafeteria-style, so after loading up your tray, you needn't worry about interruptions while you dig into your barbecue. Offerings here include smoked brisket and baby back ribs, with sauces are served on the side (so the spice level is up to the customer). The tangy and sweet baked beans make an excellent side.

Plastic does not go with potato salad
by brynn72182 at Citysearch
I could talk about the food and ambiance, which were both fine. But there is something much more important to note here...
... I found an approximately one inch piece of thick hard gray plastic in my potato salad.
Um what? How does that happen?
And to make it worst, I didn't notice it until it was in my mouth and I bit down on it. Yeah, that was a little nasty.
Enough said.

Four years later, I STILL love it!

I had a chance to try Buster's Tigard location when visiting the Portland-area with my son back in 2004. We both just loved the food and couldn't wait to come back. It took until August 2008 for me to be able to come back to this restaurant (I live in Northwest Washington, just slightly south of the Canadian border). The food was every bit as good as I remembered it!
My lunch consisted of a combination plate with brisket and sausage. I had potato salad and baked beans as my sides and was also served a piece of Texas Toast. One thing I've noticed over the years about Texas-style barbecue is that a person really loves it or can't stand it. There is no middle ground. As for me, I do love it and thoroughly enjoyed my meal. Even bought a t-shirt to take home! The meats were good enough to have enjoyed without sauce, but I dipped mine in the spicy sauce along with some onions. FYI- in Texas-style bbq the sauce is served on the side, not slathered over the meats.
I only hope it isn't four more years before I return!

Yummy BBQ!
by ljays22 at Citysearch
I love this place and frequent the Milwaukie location as well. They have great food and a fun atmosphere - buffet style so you can get in and out quickly. I have gotten dry meat sometimes, as another reviewer commented, but have found you can exchange it for a different selection, all you have to do is ask! Give Buster's a try - you'll be glad you did.
- Pros: Great food
- Cons: I can't eat there as much as I want!!!
