    Born and raised in Lubbock, TX, Lubbock had Underwood's in the 60s and 70s, and my family ate there at least once a month. Loved their food as a young boy, and I can still remember how wonderful the place smelled as soon as I stepped into the restaurant.

My daughters and their families came from Wisconsin and McKinney Tx. Said they wanted Underwoods for Christmas dinner. Loved every bit of it. Don't listen to all the idiots that are putting Underwoods down.

    My eyes were bigger than my stomach when I filled up a tray at Underwoods 😅 I couldn't finish my meal but I really tried. It was so good! The staff were so great and the patrons were lovely, too. It was the first time in my life I'd tried cobbler! But I'm from Australia and never see it for sale here. Been meaning to bake some myself when I find the time.

    I grew up near Brownwood, but never developed a taste for the so called 'barbeque steak' from Underwood's, because it always reminded me of Sloppy Joes. However, the fried chicken, rolls and cobbler are great. I usually make several trips per month through the drive-thru, for my fried chicken fix.

    Growing up in Amarillo, I ate at Underwoods thinking it was the only one. Now I know it was the one and only of its kind even with other locations. Sad to learn they closed in Amarillo. If you compare barbeque types you could certainly prefer others but Underwoods is incomparable, being one of a kind. Basically, it's number one in its field because its the only one in its field. Long live the independent restaurants in America and heip what's left because they're fading fast. That brings into question whether the new generation has the good taste and sensibility to keep it going. If not it will be their loss, not our's who came before.

      And right you should, this kind of dining is pretty rare even in Texas, but the food is the best kind of homemade. Don't get it wrong, though, Underwood's atmosphere is super antique, and i doubt it could open in a brand new place looking like it looks in Brownwood.

    The saddest of my child hood was when the Underwood 's restaurant in I can't remember for sure I think it was in River Oaks Texas was closed for good

    Man, its been too long since I've been to underwood's. Those rolls are worth the trip on their own, not to mention everything else.

    1960's Underwoods Norman, Okahoma, I think the same family franchise. A cherished childhood memory. A little something brought back by the Sooner's maybe? Had to get good bar-b-que some where.
