how is this not sponsored by the Texas tourism board? I've only been to Dallas once, but watching this channel makes me want to visit Texas just to do a road trip
Use to live in San Benito , Harlingen and Brownsville. But when i lived in San Bene after church it was this place. Very delicious food and very family friendly. Will stop by when i go back to the Valley to visit.
I live in Brownsville and have always driven an hour to get to Willie B’s for their huge baked potato w/ brisket. I had no idea there was a place in San Benito that offered them as well and they look delicious. I’m gonna visit this place asap🥔🍴
Oh my goodness I'm binge watching your wonderful videos, want and need these beans as well as that stuffed potato, texas I'm coming paula aged 64 in the UK xxx
One of the things I miss about going to the valley is stopping by The Longhorn Cattle Co. for some great BBQ. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.
I used to work at the Harley Davidson shop there in San Benito and Longhorn is right up the road a bit and they call me "Big Lou " for a reason,I love to eat great food and this is the place for great BBQ, beans and everything else on the menu.
As a former employer the best bbq in the valley the food is great baby back ribs were the best for me steaks were great also i could never finished that chopped brisket spud too big great place to eat
Been going there since the 90's and the only place my mom will buy brisket and the best banana pudding. Mmmmmmmm......groovy memories. And still making more.
Shout out san benito!! Great food im from houston all my houston ppl if your on your way to Padre please stop in San Benito and corpus christi delicious Mexican food and very friendly people
It shouldn't take you very long to get to the Texas panhandle, but then brace yourself for a long-ass, 12 hr+ drive to the southern tip. Just make sure you come hungry. 😄
You’re better off saving yourself time and gas, it’s not that great. Closer to you in Ft. Worth Heim BBQ a true gem or Hard Eight BBQ highly recommend both.
Where are the sponsors? I binge watched 4 years of your videos, and you had sponsors in the earlier videos, your content is well placed and presented. I hope that you get sponsors and more viewers, as a New Yorker, whose deceased Dad was stationed in Texas in the military, I have always wanted to visit the state. Your videos make the epicurial [ sp? ] aspects of the state stand out.
Nope, that way the sour cream and butter will melt gently through the melting cheese into the potato and permeate throughout the toppings.Take your time and enjoy the flavors as well as the conversations between friends!
Shouldn’t you altogether not put so much butter on it in the first place? You know, in case you want to provoke cardiac arrest. Why oh why? No reason: everything is big in Texas, including the casket..?
I'd request pico de gallo and jalapeños in place of the butter and sour cream if they were available. I've never liked butter and sour cream on my baked potato.
Something felt like it changed last time i was there so hadnt been back so I may have to give it another try. The beans are always to die for though so no complaints on that. And dont forget the banana pudding! How could you not showcase the banana pudding?!?
my review on google-maps I said they tasted like they were seasoned with bacon. the owner replied they dont use bacon only brisket. 2:16 what is that hanging off of the cup?
My mouth is watering, must be time to eat, I wish I was there! The coffee cup of beans looks great and I don't even like beans. Who's your videographer?
Steven neptune But it’s not. I mean.. it’s not really a local hangout. Most people that goes there are winter Texans from the rv parks down the street.
Ribs are always good , the beans have there good and bad days I guess, and Banana pudding is 👌🏻, just wish they would put more vanilla wafers. Brisket is ok at times, sometimes it is tender and juicy and other times dry 😒. Not so bad food but for the price you pay, I want to get my moneys worth.. Ohhh and Always ask for extra bbq sauce. 😋😉
Loving this channel, makes me wanna visit. Just one suggestion show more food and less people. I mean you can show the food and have the people talking in the background.
The pinto bean soup before you get your menu might be the smartest thing ever. There's a place I go just to get the fresh chips and queso.. but you have to get the carnitas tacos to go with.
I agree with Snydesy, where is the common sense to how to dress a stuffed potato, these people got it all backwards, common sense would tell you to put the butter in first, followed by the cheese and then topped with the hot brisket/meat which will melt the cheese from the top while the hot potato will melt the butter and the bottom side of the cheese making it a much better meal, vs what they have now, trying to eat a scoop of cold butter. Absolutely Crazy! Come on people wake up and smell the potato!!!!
Sorry folks but when a potato is put in aluminum foil it steams and does not bake. This is a misnomer that many people make. If the potato is baked naked in the oven THEN it is a baked potato.
Dude at one point you took a bite that had aluminum foil on fork, maybe should've removed the foil first as it's the first thing I always do when eating a bake potato and always will be, well because I eat the skin and all & I also smash the crap out if the potatoe to mix & melt the toppings and butter.
They didn't show the ribs or brisket....for one the ribs are dry and bland... two there is better brisket out there don't waste your money....loaded potato and beans are pretty good....but bbq idk....
I live in this town and I can say that there is better places to eat in San Benito lmfao.. I guess when you've eaten there so many times it becomes less and less impressive.
My dad is the one making the potato!!! Proud and blessed to be his son!!!
It’s a must stop when you drive by San Benito!! The beans are very good and their bbq is delicious!!😋😋
Great food, casual atmosphere. Whenever I have company visiting from out of town I bring them here & never disappointed
And if you want to really impress them bring them to Cafe Amiga in Brownsville for the best home made tortillas and Mexican food
San Benito is where I live. Good place to eat

Ha ha ha ... absolutely! I can't seem to get these stops out of my mind. Sure sounds like a travel destination to me ;-)
Ed Krassenstein sucks your not on Twitter anymore.

Damn that tea looks so good with that cup of beans and the potatoe

Those beans are to die for. Full of meat, spice and soft pinto beans. We buy a quart to take home every time we go.
One of the things I miss about going to the valley is stopping by The Longhorn Cattle Co. for some great BBQ. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.
All you can eat beans.....I’m in!
Oh so many other choice menu items, the steaks! Bills poor boy! The banana pudding! You barely scratched the surface!
Those baked potatoes look amazing !

Yooooooo, I don't even like beans, but those beans really are to die for
The beans and spuds great! But their banana pudding is to die for!
Been going there since the 90's and the only place my mom will buy brisket and the best banana pudding. Mmmmmmmm......groovy memories. And still making more.
I went there after I saw it in ‘Texas Monthly’, so it was on the map, even before this guy!
Been here twice and I love it
better get there , before the next teardrop falls
RIP Freddy
watching that longhorn scratching his rump with his horn was strangely satisfying...
Mmmm that potatoe was screaming for them beans to be thrown on it too! 🤤🤰🏾
Used to eat there yearly during dove season. The bbq went downhill but the beans are awesome.
they aren't that great. mildly seasoned at best.
Shout out san benito!! Great food im from houston all my houston ppl if your on your way to Padre please stop in San Benito and corpus christi delicious Mexican food and very friendly people
I wonder how long it would take me to get there from Pueblo CO. Lol

You wont want to leave .
Amazing flavor sour cream and cow butter
Awesome would love to live in Texas
Looks so good. Would love to go try some.
Come on down to my town exit Paso Real if you are southbound and follow the frontage rd.
BORN AND RAISED IN SAN BENITO NEVER BEEN THERE SOME DAY I HOPE
And only an 8 hour drive from my home in Texas. Dang
Used to work there 🙂 it was interesting and fun
Shouldn’t the butter go on before the cheese?
Just a thought
Nope, that way the sour cream and butter will melt gently through the melting cheese into the potato and permeate throughout the toppings.Take your time and enjoy the flavors as well as the conversations between friends!
Yall sure they teach this at the professional culinary school you assume he went to?
Butter application 101

what is that hanging off of the cup?
Born and raised in San Benito TX currently live in Denton TX and never ate here.
This is making me wanna move to Texas
My mouth is watering, must be time to eat, I wish I was there! The coffee cup of beans looks great and I don't even like beans. Who's your videographer?
A guy named big Bubba. Don't drop the soap.
Just got done eating there, me and my boyfriend the food was great!
I'm from San Benito and that's not the immediate place I send people for "must have" bbq. Don't get me wrong.. they're ok, but somewhat expensive.
Where do you recommend people to go to for food?
Your a hater from San benito. Thats what you are.
Steven neptune Can’t give my honest opinion without being a hater? Huh
@@RobertXPhotography rep your city. Would it have hurt you that much to just say it was good. Very unique place in the valley.
Steven neptune But it’s not. I mean.. it’s not really a local hangout. Most people that goes there are winter Texans from the rv parks down the street.
Id pour my cup of beans on the potato...
no you wouldn't
RIP Lisa Turner
Wow! I need to try all the Texas foods!
Their whole menu is really good food. We're never disappointed. Takes us 30 minutes to get there.
I had one in Houston n said "WOW!" n " IT WAS GOOD 😋!"
Drive west about 20-25 minutes to Weslaco, TX Teddy’s BBQ is phenomenal and T Ghost BBQ
That potato is grown in a field next to a nuclear power plant.
LOLOLOL😂 👍1
well that explains the size
My thing is I dont want 2 heeping scoops of non melted butter on top put that sucker inside soon as u split it open then put carne then cheese ..
Awesome.
Awesome food 😋😋😋👍
Lordy..I'm ready to Go!
I love a massive baked potato so many places out here in Cali serve small ones........
HOW MANY OUNCES IS THE PITCHER
I’ve been searching all my life for a recipe for those beans!! If you have one please share a link.
So good, yum
Hello Lisa and Bill. Waiting for my Philippine Fiancé paperwork to come to the states. See you guys soon.
Michael
Oh wow San Benito, crazy
Awesome food I live just down the road.
Yooo my boi, that Spanish was pretty legit man 😂😂😂😂

I life about four blocks away. Best restaurant anywhere. Go for the best never ending beans and take the rest of your order home

Have you done a video of the "Big Texan"?
Yes. The tourist trap has been covered.
.........😑 all I want to do is travel the world and eat everything!
Great place, good food.
Yummm
why not pour the beans over the Potato?
Road trip!
Man looks awesome would have loved to see there BBQ
That's a helluva big potato
Throw in a Texas steak with that would be a perfect menu
Yeah they have steak on the menu, up to a 34oz. Farmer steak
If you don't eat at Manuel's in Port Isabel you're out of your mind.
I had the potato. And the beans. Average. But I would go again.
RGV baby!!!!
If it’s in foil, it’s not a baked potato, it’s a steamed potato.
After the first cup of beans they charge you, but it's worth it I ate 4 cups last time I went
The pinto bean soup before you get your menu might be the smartest thing ever. There's a place I go just to get the fresh chips and queso.. but you have to get the carnitas tacos to go with.
I love everything but the beans.But that's just me.everything else is mind boggling good.
As the Resident Brownsville Gringo, I would say this place is ok. Also Freddy Fender is from San Benito.
Best pinto beans I ever ate.
I live in San Benito

It's there sense of presentation lol. It doesn't matter cuz the food is terrible anyways!
@@marv.mon.9845 uh, oh! It really is not good?
Ya and melt the darn cheese for real😃😃😃😃
EXACTLY, Butter First! Common sense!

I know exactly what your saying bro
I live in this town and I can say that there is better places to eat in San Benito lmfao.. I guess when you've eaten there so many times it becomes less and less impressive.
That’s what I’m thinking! I haven’t been there in years.
there's no livestock in the back
yeah, I hate sour cream...I will NOT be eating there for a variety of reasons
Puro San bene Cuhh
Llegare pero no de camino, prefiero algo rico de casa de mamá o los taquitos, si ando hambrienta me voy a San Benito!!
I’m from Harlingen boy go to memorial middle school
:20
they are showing flooded streets lol
Go to Mercedes tx only about a 20 min drive from there it's called the smoking oaks best bbq in Texas qualifiers
It’s good too
Wow this is best better than catylemans in el.paso wow
😋
Trash place, hardly any flavor. I don’t understand the hype. Rather make half that stuff myself.
The Smoking Oak in Mercedes is the best BBQ in the Valley
Smells like they're cooking a goddamn cat over there.
What???No Steak....C'mon man..lol
They do have steaks.
Too bad they shut down.
