"Every day at Blood Bros is a new experience, depending on which ribs, sausages, or wildcards they’re serving. Regular pork ribs are available daily, but show up on Wednesday, Thursday, or Saturday and you can order them glazed with gochujang. On Fridays and Sundays you’ll unlock the slightly more rare guava-glazed versions, and on Saturdays, they magically transform into beef ribs. Just don’t show up Monday or Tuesday—they’re closed, and your cravings will be crushed. And if you decide that you’re bored of the classics, there’s a whole menu of “specialty” entrees including brisket and gai lan chow fun, sweet-and-sour fried ribs, and a pho-rub beef belly bánh mì." - nicolai mccrary, kevin gray, nick rallo
"Three words: brisket fried rice. At Blood Bros., diners can feast on jalapeno-cheddar sausages, juicy turkey, and pork belly burnt ends. As far as the sides are concerned, the brisket fried rice here is arguably one of the city’s finest barbecue joint sides, and the jalapeno coleslaw is equally solid." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Founded by three Alief natives, this Bellaire smokehouse and Michelin Bib Gourmand-designated restaurant combines Asian flavors and Central Texas-style barbecue in a way that is undeniable to the tastebuds. Stay for the brisket, fall-off-the-bone ribs, and togarashi smoked chicken — and consider ordering in bulk to take some home for later. Advance orders require a minimum of five pounds of meat and must be placed 48 hours in advance via Blood Bros’ website. The specials, which rotate daily, are also a fun way to spice things up. Must-try dish: The brisket fried rice, the macaroni and cheese, and the pork belly burnt ends." - Brittany Britto Garley
"It’s easier to mix oil and water than it is to combine a Sagittarius with somewhere boring. They’ve got to keep things interesting, and their restaurant choice is no different. The Bellaire barbecue joint Blood Bros. BBQ always has a few new twists. In addition to a rotating menu of daily specials, like the sweet and sour fried ribs, dishes like brisket fried rice and burnt pork ends with a bourbon peach compote make appearances on certain Fridays. Sagittarians should come when they need a new favorite dish that no one has heard of or when going to a traditional BBQ joint feels too mainstream." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
"The Bellaire barbecue joint Blood Bros. BBQ always has a rotating menu of daily specials, with standouts like brisket fried rice and burnt pork belly ends with a peach habanero compote. The meat here is sold by the pound with the sides playing the role of a dutiful teammate—especially the mac and cheese. And while we appreciate the inventiveness, Blood Bros. long menu can be a little overwhelming, especially with new dishes popping up daily, so come laser-focused with an order strategy ahead of time." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
